Amazon presents, Laura versus Fruitflies. Swarming your fruit and terrorizing your kitchen, these little freaks multiply at a rate that would make a rabbit say, yo. Chill. But Laura shopped on Amazon and saved on cleaning spray, countertop wipes, and fly traps. Hey, fruit flies, your baby boom ends here. Save the Everyday with Amazon. Hey everybody and welcome back to the 36th ever ice coffee hour where the channel has already made $34,714.

I'm Grant Navar and I am very happy to be here. That was high intro. That was amazing. That's got to go into highlights. Yeah. Perfect. Well, thank you so much for coming on the channel. So you've come quite a ways all the way to Las Vegas.

And for those that don't know you, you've been on the Graham Steffin show before. I interviewed you because you reached an $11 million dollar real. estate portfolio with 31 rental properties, bringing in $50,000 a month. You build them, you sell them, now you're selling them, and you have quite an interesting story of running a car dealership, smoothie plays too. You make smoothies. We have smoothie madness to talk about here. Really interesting. And you also brought some Team Rocket Pokemon cards to on open here. He's brought six packs for us to each open up two packs of Pokemon cards. keep you guys watching. I'm also going

to unpack. What do we call? Unpack? It's not in the box. We're going to be opening up this base pack that I bought a few months ago. This was $1,000 to this little thing right here. Who knows what's inside of it. But guys, all you got to do is smash

the like button for the YouTube algorithm. And we could pull a Charzard. We could pull a Charzard here and a dark Charzard over there a hollow. So if you pull it just in case, do you know the value of that Charzard if you get a PSA 10? Well, it's not shadowless. So it's going to have a shadow.

I'm going to guess a PSA 10 shadow, maybe $3,000, $4,000, $5,000. I thought the same thing. Yeah. When I pulled some on the Stevie-Oki pack pools. Right. And when you pull them up on last sold, $20,000. $20,000.

And that's a base set. Yeah, that's base set. Yeah. Yeah. If you get a 9, it's like $1,900. Wow. So really quick, tell me how many packs have you purchased from Steve Aoki and how much are those?

So a good friend of mine runs his stuff and he's been messaging me for him. I've probably purchased 10. 10? 10 packs from Steve. And you get, the very beginning was one and one. Like you'd purchase one, you'd get another pack. Then he started doing like you would get,

so that 10 includes, he started doing like a base set with a rocket and a base set with a, so with a father. How much was that? He made the pricing the year, $1,021 is what he did. So it was $4,000. But I pulled two charrizards and, uh, so you got your money back. Did you?

Yeah. You did. So if, if the first one's a nine and the second one's a 10, then that's still $20,000 bucks. Did you send them in to get graded then? Not yet. Not yet. Okay.

They're so backed up. I thought about grading some cards too, but they're so backed up. You could expedite them, but they're like $500 a card. Like, you really got to make it worth it. So I'm going to wait for them to open up. and then walk them in. And that, I think, is generally the smartest thing they do is you got to go with them in person, give it to them, pay a premium, get it back the same day.

Guys, we should note, this is the first podcast episode we are filming in Vegas. Yes. There we go. That's huge. Yeah, this is. Well, you're the first one to film a podcast here. Yeah. This is where it's going to be, really, unless we have a guest in L.A.,

but for the most part, is they're going to be here now. You know, you're actually going to see the setting before Graham's main channel sees it. Wow. Because he's releasing a video soon that shows all the interior and everything after it's been done. Yeah. But that's coming later. Yep. So guys, just to give a little bit of a background, who Grant is and how we met, he was actually

a part of the mentorship group. Link down below. You're getting better at the plugs. Yeah, I know. Yeah. We'll down below, get to four free stocks. But yeah, he was a part of the mentorship group. And I just remember, like, when we would meet in the Zoom calls, him and I ended up talking

a lot. And we got to know each other. I took down his phone number. And we started talking a lot. and you started befriending Graham and stuff. And then we planned to do a video like this, a big old Pokemon card unboxing. What I found was amazing that we did a phone call

on the Graham Stephan show about, what, five, six months ago. And then when I hit two million subscribers, you sent me this Rolex, which was insane. Got this box in the mail. It's like, what is this? Opened it up, and it's engraved two million subscribers on the back. That's incredible. That's pretty incredible.

And I wear this all the time. Graham loves that watch. You see me wearing this night and say a third of my videos I'm wearing it. And everyone's like, Graham, you're wearing a Rolex? It's so excited. I'm like, no, no, no, it's a gift. Grant got me than one. It's okay.

It's okay, guys. But yeah, I love it. If I don't, if y'all don't mind, stay tuned for this whole video. Because if you like the Rolex that I got, Graham, that might not be as crazy as a Rolex, but it still might be your first. I don't know. So it's another cool thing. I'm so curious to see what this might be.

Wait, so you have a surprise for Graham. Yeah. And I have a surprise for you too, but I'll tell you that when we do the past. You got a surprise too. Wow. And look, I do this just because I appreciate them too. Right. We've, like they said, we're friends.

So this is fun. You'll get my real reaction. I have no idea. Yeah. No idea what that is. There have been a lot of events in this relationship developing, and it's been a fun time. It's been a long time.

And this is actually our first day meeting grant. Yeah, actually. It's also really exciting. Yeah, no. It's weird because we've talked online for like a year before meeting. But it's one of those things that when you've been talking, so much or just doing like Zoom calls back and forth on the mentorship group down below in the description. Like when we met is like just we're friends. Like we already know each other. There's no like

awkwardness of like, hey, I'm Graham. I'm Grant's nothing like that. It's just fun. And after this, we're also going to go gambling a little bit. Oh, Jack has really wanted to do this. Whoa, what are you putting me down for? No, no, no. It's your idea. Graham really wants to gamble. So I said, fine, Graham. If you really get on your knees and beg, yeah, we'll go and gamble. So we're going to gambling and we'll show you guys the results at the end of the podcast episode. There will be a little segment of us talking about our experience gambling. So stay tuned for that. I would like to say this house is absolutely beautiful. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Including Jackson. Well, I'm sure it's nowhere near. So you're building some real estate. But let's let's go back

a minute. How did you get starred in real estate? So when I was 18 years old, started selling cars. And what ended up happening is I did really well. Right. So my average for all those years were about $75,000 a year. And how I got started, and I said this, I don't know if it would make it to the Graham Steffen show, but my mother told me that I couldn't have girls in my room and I decided that I had to have a place of my own. And so that's how it started. 18 years old, I got a loan and, you know, bought an apartment that was half of a duplex for 96,000 bucks. Now, I know Graham advocates for living with the family. But in a situation like this, Graham, what would you say to the mother or to Grant? You got a lot. You got a little bit.

you got to look at the financial value of being able to have a girl over at the house. Is that really worth $2,000 a month? I would advocate probably not. Unless it's cheaper. Maybe not to you, Graham, but to someone like Grant. How much would you pay to have girls over at the house, Jack? Well, considering I don't have any as it is, right? Money is no object. Money is no object. No, no. That's not true. Let's cut that part out. We're not going to cut that out. I look at the financial value of that. I'm like, okay, I guess. I could save, let's say, how much were you saving living at home? So my mortgage is only $555.55. Yeah, you're from a different place, though. You're not from California.

$96,000 is what it cost me. Okay. And it was, it was an apartment. It was half of a duplex. It wasn't like, it wasn't like a lot. So the opportunity cost of putting your money in there versus living at home is really not that big because you could have instead bought a rental property, rented it out. I did that the next year.

You did that the next year. But it also costs to get that hot tub. I had to put in the back. art. That was fun. You got a hot tub? I did. So you really wanted girls over. That was, that was the reason why you moved out. This is turning into a girl topic. I love my beautiful fiance, Caleb Vizina. So yes. So yes. Thankfully, my mom would let her be in the room. So at 31, I guess. Is this what started you off in investing? Is like, I want to have girls over. So like, I got to get my own place. That's an origin story. It is. But that is the main,

I'm very honest. And that is the very reason why I did it. And then at 19, I realized that, I could build a whole duplex for not double the price that I paid for that one. So I built my first duplex for right around $140,000. And then I lived in one side, rented the other side, and I stayed there for a very long time. And how do you just, like, build a duplex coming from no background in real estate? Or did you have a background? So I was very fortunate. I do come from a very good family.

My brother, Barrett, who is part of my core principles. I've watched others, and I've watched their successful failures. I'm very fortunate to have those people around me. But what happened was he built them. I actually bought the apartment from him is where I got the very good deal. Then he sold the next one for 80, you know, so I didn't get the best deal. Oh, my God. He sold it to you at a premium?

Oh, Barry. What are you doing? It's family. You've got to charge a little bit more for family. It's a little brother, but anyway, he built it. So I kind of watched it. I like to watch and exhorb and then do. So I just trial in error after that.

I mean, he didn't give me any pointers, didn't tell me anything. I just went out and built a dupe. And I've made mistakes, but all in all, it worked out great. So you were selling cars. What made you sell cars? Why cars? So it's just my family. So they've always been in the car business.

And that's what I did as well. Yeah. That seems pretty impressive that you built a duplex at 19, though, because I'm 22, and I can't even, like, fathom. You can't even put up a hang a picture. No, I can't, no. I can even hang TV. So, you know, that's, that's my impressive, able to fix things.

That's impressive. It is. But first, a word from our sponsor, Skillshare.

Were you a good talker?

How do you sell a car? Well, I was also going to college, which I did not finish. I was a junior for a very long time. And what ended up happening is I just decided to focus more on that. But I sold cars for four and a half years. I was always in the top, being a young person, going to school. I actually talked to a few people that do that now. And the car business is one of the absolute best businesses, aside from real estate, that both of us has found our footing in.

So that's just, it built from there. But what made you so good selling cars? I've always been a people person. I'm, you know, just from all three of us. Your voice is amazing. You have a great voice. You have a really, really voice. It fills the room.

This room is massive and it fills the room. It's friendly. It's a friendly, welcoming voice. You say y'all, you say sir. Yeah. Sir, I, listen, you kept calling me sir. I'm like, I'm not a sir. Like this is too polite.

Like this is too polite. Like this is too good. Yeah. But and I very much, thank y'all. It's too respectful. Yeah. Too respectful. You know.

Call me dude. Yeah. What's up, man? Brough. We're getting towards bro. Yeah, okay. Yeah. I'm getting there.

Yeah. But, but yeah, that would be one thing. And then plus, I work like no other. I, you know, you talk about your work ethic and I see it in all the videos and all the channels. And then dude, you coming in. See, I did it. Dude, right there.

I did it. We're getting comfortable. Nice. And so anyway, that happens. and I watch you do all the things you do. So just long story short, I would make sure that I did what most don't follow up, keep going. And you put enough effort, time, and consistency and anything,

you're going to get results. You just got to make sure you get them long enough. Where do you get the work ethic from? So just my family, watching my father, watching my brothers, just my own personality as well. I know you're not born with these kinds of things, but I've always been very, very competitive. You've got to have a pretty big work.

ethic to do what you do because you you have all of your investments spread around like you you're actively investing in like the smoothie place you've got your car dealership you got to run you've got all these apartment complexes that you're building up like all that has to take a lot of time and i don't i don't have a property manager yeah we need some we need some click bait for the title do you do you know like a gross number here of like how much this all brings every month between like the car business between smoothies between real estate between investments to you wait So do you want like gross? So with everything fully rented, we'll just go that number. But with everything fully rented, $600,000 from the rentals.

My smoothie business last year, even with everything that has happened, brought in right at 100. Actually, a little bit more, but let's just use 100. And then I make $300 at the store as far as being the director of the 11 stores. And so, you know, that's pretty close to a million. How on earth do you manage all of that? How do you run a smoothie business? So main squeeze is pretty cool. And so basically they make healthy easier.

It's really cool. And it's a fun concept. So they started in Lake Charles, Louisiana. My cousin actually developed it, you know, hadn't seen him in forever. He comes and talks to me about it. I got excited about it. I've never just talked to somebody and did it besides like something like this.

Sure. You know? And anyway, he did it. I bought in and I bought eight locations. One's built. And the shopping center that I'm talking about is that we were that we're doing next month, which is very exciting, is going to be where the second one is.

So you're buying a shopping center as well for your smoothie. That is included in the $11 million. So that is, that is, that's what I said. The $11 million as in your total portfolio value. Real estate portfolio. And a lot of this guys, we've already discussed on the second channel. We did like a Pokemon card pack unboxing. Yeah, go and check that out.

Go and check that out. Because if you want to see the other 30 packs that we unpacked, we opened them up, go and check that out. That's going to be, that's an intense video, Jack. You're putting a lot of time into editing that video. That's just like five cameras. We have five cameras. We had five cameras.

What we did is a Pokemon battle between both of us. You had a pack. I had a pack. We opened them up and we saw at the very end who has the most value from that. So for your real estate, now you have 31 different properties. How did you start scaling up after the duplex? So very much like you, when you make a certain amount of income, sometimes that's blinding. You know, now you kept investing.

And me, there was a time period where I didn't. So from 19 until I was 24, I didn't invest in real estate. I just had the duplex. I lived in one side. I did build a house. Built a house. I was making $350,000 a year, which is great income. But what ended up happening is at 25, I built my first fiveplex.

And after that, I realized I could do more. And I knew I could do more and I could handle more. And that's when we started really getting into it. So, of course, the reason to get the capital, my job, building up that income, living very, very frugally and just pushing it more and more every year to see what I could do. So you think having a strong income is one of the best ways into getting into real estate? Yes. So of course you want to make more income. You want to push yourself, get a side hustle, get a lawnmower. You know, you can do anything you put your mind to as long as you put that

effort and time and commitment into it. Yeah. How do you manage your time between everything? What takes up the most amount of time? I feel like probably the smoothie and the car business probably take up the bulk of your time. The real estate's more passive. Car business, definitely. Real estate, you know, when I get off of work, I don't get off of work. And of course, I have my channel too. So it does take effort and time. As far as my day, just how to manage myself, Kayla, my fiance is also my assistant and my real estate agent. So we're just, it's like one big hub of we just, you know, she'll tell me what I got to do. I go do it. And then like when I have a rental, I go post it on all the pages. I'll go do that. She helps tremendously. And she'll fill the calls. So I'll message them out. And if they directly message me, I'll answer him. But this is her number. And I collect all the rent. The answer is I don't know. I just keep going. I don't think about, oh, I got a lot to do. I just do it. And is this sustainable? How much free time do you have? Like, what's your work like? How many hours do you work every week? If you asked me my hobby, as far as it's sustainable, it's work. I like it. I like to work. But as far as how many hours a week I work,

there's what 160 in the week. So, you know, 85 to I don't have 100's realistic, but it's a lot. Because even when you go and film until 2 in the morning, that's still work. In my I mean, definitely. That is. Because you're killing. Yeah. It is. I feel the same way.

For me, it's like, people ask me, what are you for fun? I'm like, I work. I have fun with that. And they look at me, like, they're crazy. Like, what? That's fun. And it is. It is.

I have so much fun doing it. So that's my, that's my hobby. That's what I do for fun. And if this is technically work, I'm also having a lot of fun right now. See? Grant, what would you tell a young, excited, maybe doesn't have a ton of money? A 22-year-old, random 22-year-year-old,

no one specifically, but just a semi-handsome 22-year-old. How would they get into real estate? Like, what would you tell to them? I would tell you to save everything, just kind of like how your attitude was earlier when I said about gambling, and you were like, I'm going to put $5 on the table. I said, what if you get to double down?

Grant wanted me to put in a lot of money. You too, I don't want to put in anything. I don't want to gamble. But yeah, I would say save everything, same mindset that you have. Elevate your income, you know, as you've been doing, you know, with helping Graham more and more. and like the ice coffee hour, I mean, you know,

y'all are killing it with this. And it's already, what, 100,000 subscribers? Almost. We're so close. We're going to hit 100 in a week, probably. Maybe in a week. And that's awesome. It's very awesome, especially for channels like that.

Subscribe to Grant, guys. He's in the description. Not when I was, you know, but thank you for the plug. But anyway, so I would just say, keep saving your money. Keep doing that. Keep going. Don't, you also have to start. Yeah.

Biggest thing. If he would have never started, if I would have never started, you would still be 31 years old. And so I will throw this thumb back out there. Barrett, my brother, who sold me the apartment for $96,000 and the next one for $80, not upset. But what ended up happening is at 23 years old, he got overwhelmed. He did it at 21, right? He started selling cars.

That's where I've, and so at 21, he built him at 23. He got overwhelmed and he sold him. And he has not gotten back into real estate until this year. And he's building a shopping center. Now, he was a general manager just like I am making really good income. And it makes you comfortable. So always stay hungry, keep going and keep pushing. So what did you want to be when you grew up?

Did you have an idea of like, I want to be this? I want to be a real. I want to run smoothie shops. Definitely not smoothie shops. That one came out of left field for me. I would say I've always wanted to be in sales. You know, you ever hurt? Comment below, and I told me to be trying to take over the comment section,

but comment below if you've ever been told you should be a salesperson. Like that's, when I was a little kid and they would recruit me to go, sell the raffle tickets. I would come back and just, and I'm not the best at numbers and things like that. I mean, I know my numbers, but it's just sometimes not the strong point. I would come and pull out like all the raffle money. I'm like, here you go. And they would be like, here's more tickets. And that they would sick them, boy, and that's what I would go do. Just like a good hunting dog. I would come back and that's just how I've always been. So I'll throw this out there too. When I was 16 and 17 years old, I got recruited to do Advocare.

I was, I should have brought it. I'll send you a photo if you want to use it, but I got a $3,000 check for being the top at 18, at 17, I'm sorry, and it was a $3,000 check in 2008 for being the third highest, you know, salesperson in the whole company for the new people. So not like, not the people making with the

planes, you know, but I thought that was cool. So you've always just been good at sales, always good with people, just naturally grew up like that. I tell you this, a lot of people think this is crazy. When I was doing Advocate, like, let's say we all went to high school together. I know you're younger than me, right? We're close to the same age. I'm not like 40. I'm 31.

But what would happen is I had, so let's say he went to a school and he went to a school. I would have a sales meeting and I didn't even know what they were. I would have a sales meeting like the wolf of Wall Street except without the craziness. And I would like take cash and like let's say you paid $300 of commissions on those. I was like, Jack, got $300. And everybody's like super hype because you're high school. You get $300. It's crazy.

Yeah. Yeah. I'm getting hyped about like, let's do ourselves, money. So what were your biggest struggles would you say? Time, mental focus, you know, because regardless of if you're a salesperson or making, you know, an hourly wage, you have to keep that mental focus because if not, you'll destroy yourself. So that's always been a struggle.

It's the struggle today, you know, like, let's go to Vegas. And when we come, when we go back, we're going straight to my smoothie shop in Houston, spending two days there, and then we're going back home to catch back up on everything we left off there. Have you ever had any big financial losses? It seems like everything you've done so far as made money. What's the biggest financial loss? So when I was 18 years old, we were on a family vacation. And like I said, I come from a family that's very competitive.

And my brother, I walked downstairs. We rented a house. And it was the last time our family ever stayed together. And my father died pretty recently. in 20, what, pretty recently, 2016. But yeah, so it just, you know, it was cool and we're all there and my brother's yelling at the TV. It's 2008, right?

And a great recession was starting or getting ready to get bad. And so he's yelling at the TV. He asked him, what are you doing? He's 48 and I'm 31, so 17-year-old gap. And he said, I'm trading stocks. At least I heard. At least he told me something. So I went away about my business.

Then we went to the pool. And my other brother was yelling at his phone. I was like, hey, what you doing? He's like, he told me a little bit more. And he told me I'm trading Bank of America when the market goes down. I'll buy it. And then when the market goes up, I sell it. And then I'm also buying SPXU.

Now that is not a stock tip because let me explain this story. I knew two stocks. So from 18 years old, he tells me this. I'm like, okay, he's like, I made 600 bucks that I get super pumped. And remember, I was making good income, making 75,000 bucks. I said, I had $10,000 saved at this time because I hadn't fully made $75,000 yet. and I literally run to my room and I go invest $3,000 in e-trade. And I'm a creature of habit.

I still have an e-trade account. And I did that from this day. And I went and invested a total of $7,000. Because when you invest three, you have to wait to the money actually clear. So I'm super excited, like ready to trade and do something. And then I had to wait like three days for it to work. So I learned as much as I could in three days. And I traded two stocks.

Put $7,000 in. And I rose that money to $45,000 by the time I was 19. Wow. The story is great right there, but he gets way worse. And now the guy, who was his name? I'm so sorry. I watched the entire podcast, but the guy. Jeremy?

No, no, no. Tim. Chandler? Tim Sykes. Tim Sykes. So I don't follow him, but I enjoyed his podcast. He made like millions of dollars. So it's nothing like that.

But I rose that money to $45 grand, and I only bought two stocks. Like I said, a 50% chance of this really working out. The lowest I ever bought Bank of America for was $4.20 back in 2008. So I bought SPXU, which is, not a stock tip and I lost everything. I didn't know what I was doing so I froze whenever the market corrected and started back up. But I'll tell you this. I've done the equation a million times and it's a learning experience. Anytime I ever make a mistake, I try to learn from it. If I would have bought Bank of America instead of SPXU at 18 years old, I put $7,000 in, it would

have turned out to be about $360,000. If you take Bank of America, $45,000, have been $10,700 shares, multiply that by the top. You never know, though. 100% agree. So that's why this stock time has been my Super Bowl. So, I'm, I am going to make up my losses and I still bought SPXU and lost $100,000. Yeah. Any loss like that, just consider that like a college education not to do that again. Expensive.

Every loss that I've taken like that. I don't think I've taken a loss that. I think that biggest loss I've ever taken, I think was I lost, not lost. Well, I did lose 10 grand in, gosh, what was it? Dave and Buster's stock. The crypto experience was not a pleasant one for you either. Oh, gosh. So I put, how much, I bought, like, I bought, like, a Bitcoin back in 2017. I think I bought it

like 17 something. Sold it at 17.5. So I basically, I was a Warren Buffett. I thought, like, I knew the market. I beat, I beat Bitcoin. And then I put some money in, uh, it was Ryeblocks back in the day at like, I forget, it's been so, it's been like almost four years now. I think I bought it like a dollar 30 or something like this or like a dollar, two dollars. And I put, I don't know how many grand. It's been a while, like five, six grand back then. And RyBlocks went from like $1.37 all the way to like $38. Oh, wow.

And I was sitting on like a hefty chunk of cash. And I just thought, I'm an idiot. It was at 38. And I'm like, it's going to be traded very soon on Binance. And every single coin that goes on Binance goes up like, you know, even more. So my plan was that like people were saying it's probably worth about. at 50 once it gets traded on finance. So I thought it was so smart. I'm like, I'm going to sell it at 44. So it was at 38. And I'm like, 44 is like my magic number. And I can sell before everyone else.

And within days, days later, the whole crypto market just comes crashing down. And I'm thinking, no, it's going to come back. And as it started dropping, then it was like, well, I may as well just write it out. I wrote out the whole thing. At the bottom, it was worth like under a dollar. And now it's worth about $3.50, $4.4. So, like, I'm still holding it. I haven't done a single thing. But I could have made so much money in a span of, like, a week and a half. And I just got, that was just greed. That was like, I was, like, guaranteed all this money had I just sold. But I just wanted a little bit more. But it was stupid. That was stupid. But that was, that was plain money. I basically thought that, like, hey, instead of putting it on the tables, I'm just going to put it in this. So be it. but yeah.

That was probably my biggest loss. Dave and Busters was another one. Bought in and immediately it goes down to like $11. I bought in, I think at like 17, went down to 11, stayed there for the longest time. And then at the end of the year,

I was doing tax loss harvesting. I'm like, okay, let me cut my losses on this. As soon as I sold it started going up and now it's at like 36. So I would have doubled my money, but I sold at the low point of the day. So as soon as I sold, you just can't trade that stock anymore, man. No.

Well, no, no, the lesson here is honestly, I just, just, for stocks, just hold. Don't sell. Never sell a stock. If you ever want to short the market, tell me first. Oh, yeah. If I buy it, the stock will drop at least for a. Oh, geez. It's the way it goes.

Everything I bought lately has been going up. It worries me, I think, how much the market's been going up lately because it's like, I realize there's no way that everything you buy is just up like 4% the next day. that it's not sustainable you can't keep doing that uh green energy stocks are going nuts and i've just i'm worried like i got to play it safer but it's just it's wild wild market right now and then you know i can't wait to see if that's if if if are all of our worry is correct or whenever all of the entertainment and all of the gaming and all of the just from cruise lines and travel when that gets back to normal hopefully, what will happen?

Then we're going to 40,000 for the day? I mean, I just don't know. You could. Because here's it. You have two things. One, you have these crazy valuations. And just, they don't make sense what things are trading out right now. But you have really low interest rates.

You have an economy that shut down. You have a lot of money pouring in. Where's that money going? It's all going to the stock market. So that's boosting up prices. I think we could continue to go higher. I do too. Or if interest rates go up, maybe that might put a damper on things.

things. But as of now, it just seems like where else can you invest your money? It's the stock market. So even though valuations are high, interest rates are so low, maybe that kind of balances out. The other thing I was thinking is that there could be a, I've talked about this before, but a shift of money moving away from tech into recovery stocks. And so even though the markets overall might be the same, just money gets taken from here, gets put over here as people try to play the science. But either way, it's like, I'd love to look back at this 10 years from now. just see if what we thought is accurate at all. And it's really just a guessing game.

Good news is from everything you've taught, everything that we all know, it'll still go up. If it doesn't, we got a lot more problems than our stock portfolio. I think long term. I think we could look at this 10 years from now and be like, hey,

the market's the exact same as it was 10 years. I mean, it's definitely a chance. But as long as I think you're buying in every month or every week or you're buying in consistently, you're going to buy through the lows, you're going to buy them through the highs. It's going to average out of the long term. It's not really going to matter that much.

It's not like you're just going to invest, like, everything today, and that's it for the rest of your life. Put it on, do I say it right? Doge coin? Doge coin. The Doge. I watched, but I didn't understand it. It's treated me really well, actually.

I'm up about 100% on that. Gosh, I would have been up 400% on that one thing. I think I sold it the next day because I thought it was so stupid, but. Do you remember when we first talked about my portfolio just on a, on a mentorship group? When I had that stock that was at 400 something up percent? What? I don't remember. It was, it's called XSPA.

I think I'm saying that right because I'm mad at it. But yeah, that one was up 400%. I was up. I don't even know the number. But I bought more. I bought not at that number. And then now it's losing me. I've lost so much my own.

How much are you up overall like net on your stock portfolio? Well, I guess we should talk about how much I put in because I put in, I've always been very frugal. I've always saved a lot of my money. And I like to buy Rolexes and things. But I feel like the whole value. I just make that. plug because somebody says a watch thing but um yeah i put in 450 000 bucks now i didn't just put

that in day one i've started buying i thought i was going on a hundred then it kept going low and then when it went down to 18000 i've got i've got disney at 87 dollars a share i've got a lot we've got a royal cruise line like 80 i don't know it's very low it's almost the 52 week high i mean 52 week low. And right now, I'm up 400,000 or so. I'm up. My portfolio is 955 current value. However, I have a $104,000 loss with SPXU and haven't sold it yet. So technically I'm up even more. And then I took profits last year of 44,000. So I sold just because I sold when it went up and then I bought back down. Diamond hands, man. You got to have the diamond hands. Was that me? Oh, Diamond hands is basically.

Diamond hands? Oh, I thought you said Diamond tans. I was like, yeah, I needed that. I'm sorry. Yeah, no, this has been a crazier. I haven't actually said this, but officially I'm up over a million dollars in the stocks. In the stock, we're up over a million dollars in the stock. We're doing fist bumps on that one. That's crazy. Well, it feels weird fist bumping over them. I'm like, okay. Oh, yeah, dude. We do something better because there's a million dollars. I'm up nearly $5,000 in my Robin Hood account for this year. Yeah. Which is pretty good. Kevin is the real winner, though.

Which is... Yeah. So everything, me... Like, I could be excited about something. And he does it 20 million times better. Yeah. I think, I think... Every episode we talk about Kevin.

Let's not talk about Kevin. Let's just... Kevin who? Yeah, I think, yeah. We'll just end of it. Me, Kevin made so many millions from Tesla stock. That's nuts. So many.

And he's now the barometer of like... Yeah. He's making moves. He's like, we're not talking about it. But he's doing some... level every episode he he could be the running like we have an inside joke he's running across the back of it the next time he'd be just having here in Vegas he should be he should be just like the the gag and it's like the inside joke for the

channels of every episode there's one mention get it get a meet Kevin cutout and then just oh that would be funny bring him on as a guest the cutout yeah but yeah he does in his work ethic he does a lot of crazy yeah he's willing to put it all in the line and that's awesome to see but hey it doesn't have to always me millions because I have one friend who invested $15,000, they're at $10,000. They invested in Sassol stock, SSL, just a really good stock, and a company where the plant is where I'm from. And then Kayla invested $45,000.

She's a real estate agent, that's my fiance, $45,000. And she's at 70 plus. So, I mean, if the market goes down, you can either get scared or you can get in. And if you get in the right things and you're paying attention, you know, it can be really great. And if you're worried by a mutual fund. That tracks the S&P. Yeah.

You don't have anything to worry about. Yeah, definitely. That's my thing this year is I feel like I'm up too much. So now I want to play like, I really. Don't chase yourself, sir. That's amazing. You shouldn't, it shouldn't be like, things are going up, I think, too fast. I agree with that.

I watched me there. I didn't see that. I need, I want to see that. I fortunately have not lost money on like anything I've done on Robin Hood. Like it's getting ridiculous now. This is what I'm talking about. It's like, what do I know? Like, let's be honest here, right?

I'm only 22. What do I know? I've been investing for a while, but I don't know what I'm doing. You're an options expert, though. I'm going to learn options from you. Yeah, I mean, I know about them, right? But at the same time, I don't think that I should be doing as well as I am. So I would say a lot of it just like.

But here's the thing. Here's what makes me skeptical is I thought in 2015, I started getting a lot more cautious about buying real estate because I felt the market is, it's up. Every year the market was increasing like 12 to 15%. And 2015, interest rates started. going up and I'm like, ah, that's probably going to taper off a little bit. I began, just, I was very cautious about every deal that I bought after that, because I'm like, I need to get a good

deal just in case. And since then, that was like 35% ago and were, you know, a third higher than back then. And everything back then is now a bargain. So it goes to show, you know, but we're only like four or five, how long is 2015? Six years ago. Six. I, I see. Wait. 15. No, six years ago. I, I, is. I. I. I. still think 2015 is like three years. Oh, I agree with you. 2008? Like, it's only three years ago.

That was only yesterday, you know? Right. Our war stories. But I think, I think as long as we look at things in 10-year increments, like, I think, even if we look back two years from now, we're like, hey, everything was half-priced back then, I think every 10 years is a good gauge where the market's going long-term. But I just feel like things are going too well. I always get suspicious.

Yeah, we could have said that so long ago, though. it's difficult to time it. That's true. Just make sure you're paying attention to the whole market because the reason I lost all that money, I was trading in a recession, which basically is what you're doing. Right.

And so, you know, an event that only happens every 100 years. And so what happened was I knew what I knew, but I didn't know the market was like infinitely wide. So that's a lot, you know, maybe it saved you some money with that old man tip right there. Yeah. Thank you for that.

I think this would be a good time we open these rocket packs. I agree. I'm itching to open up these packs. These packs are $500 each. What we're going to be doing, we each pick two packs, and we see who has the most valuable cards in these packs. And I think there's a good chance there's going to be a hollow dark Charzard in here.

And one of us might get it. So are we doing double or nothing? 600 bucks? Okay, so I lost 300 bucks on the second channel, so that's yours. I don't want to lose 600. Come on, Graham. Just do it, man. I'm not going to lose six.

If you pull it, you get to keep the 300? I'm not going to. I can't do it. Hey, can't do it. His frugleness, it's proven. I set a limit. 300 bucks is as much as I'm willing to lose. How about this?

How about whoever wins this one? We all put in $100 more. There's $400 each. Like, he's over there. His face. He said, we're cutting all this out of the podcast right there. 11 million dollar portfolio. Like, chill out, man.

Gosh, okay. So, oh, man. I don't want to put in a hundred. Yeah, that's so scary. Let's just open them. Let's do 20. 20. All right.

All right. You're still over there. I love it. Because it's a 33% chance that I'm going to win. How about this? I'll make this even better. Okay. Now the cards, once you open packs, it is better to keep them sealed because that is a $5

$5 pack or it could be a $70 pack. How about this? All three of us that open them, we're of course going to keep them. Because you knew me and Graham are going to keep what we pull anyway. Now you get to keep what you pull. You get to keep what you pull. So if you pull a Charzazard, it's your... My gift to use $1,000 worth of packs.

Wow. Okay, all right, I'll agree to $20. It's within my budget. You have to open it, though. You can't use your shield product. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So whoever pulls a Charzard... Or the best.

Or the best gives $20. The other person. Okay. And they keep their own $20 and they get $40. Let's do it. I'll divvy up these packs between us all. Do the honors. All right.

Two, two and two. Yeah. All right, let's see here. $3,000 of packs here. This one seems a little lighter. So you go ahead and take that one, all right, buddy. Oh, I like this one. I like that one.

You can feel the gram. Okay, this one feels like you. Does that mean it's empty? All right, here you go. The gram, no pun intended there, I guess. Oh, man, this is a tough. Here you go, I'll take this one. All right.

You sure you wanted to give me the Charzard? Is that what you wanted to do? Yeah, yeah, we'll see about that. All right. Yeah, sure. I'll go first. Okay. Pull them down the center and try to pull them up the top.

Sometimes it's easier to pull it. You got Dark Rapidash. That's a good looking card, everyone. All right, I'll take that. You can hear the stress in his voice. Okay. You'll flip this, Jack? Sure, yeah, this works. Challenge, energy, diglet, ponita, magnamite, Dratini, ratata, coughing, drowsy.

dark wheezing non-hollow that is the part of cards that we've all pulled Jack you want to open up your other pack No, well should I go should I just go I think because we are weirded at the camera Okay, yeah, okay This is the heavy one This is the heavy one, okay?

Oh my gosh This is so exciting Nerves in his voice This is so exciting So basically we're going to talk about return on investment It went from 500 to like Dark Phlarium. That's a cool card. I like this card.

I love that. I wish they came out of it. That's one of my favorite artworks. Dark Persian. Dark war turtle. Great. Goop gas attack. Meowth. Evie. Zubat. Otis. Grimer. Here we go. Ekins.

And do it slowly. Oh my gosh. Is that, is that, though? Non-hollow. No, it's the number at the bottom. If it's a five, no, it's not a five. So that is an error court. Now, once again, we're talking about first edition. Here, you take your core. I don't want to bend her.

That's a good one. It's an amazing card. Unfortunately, it's not, if that were a hollow, that would be one of the best parts of that. That is the second best card period. Yeah. So basically when I pulled the Dark Tarasard, the Dark Dragonite is just as cool. But if you get the five and it's holographic and its first edition, they're selling for like 20,000, 30. It's nuts.

It's so nuts. Okay. So my next. The final touches to the last one. I gotta get its brother. Dragonite was great though. That was a good card. Amazing card.

Of all the non-holing, it's crazy. as you can pull that was one of the top ones so we got an energy got a dark flaryon trainer ponita drowsy coughing uh ratatata right ratata we got a trainer we got mealph we got evy oh oh my gosh no you pulled it wow that is gorgeous it's a five one of my favorite yes so so here's the here's the thing so while we have it on camera in the event that it was non-holographic and a five. That's the, because it's an error. Just like money and coins and everything else, just, but... Wow.

We need to sleep. Here, I'll grab you to sleep. Oh, my gosh. That is gorgeous. I was like, yeah, I want to sleep for this, this one. Wow. Oh, geez. It's very nice.

Wow. Dragon Knight's one of my absolute favorite Pokemon. God is amazing. She's pretty. Look, a swirl on it. The swirl is, yeah. Yeah. Oh, geez.

You win. We still can have a Charzard because Dragonite's great, but Charazard's better. My trash talks need some word. Yeah, we'll see about this. Oh, man. Dark primate, trainer, dark cadaver, trainer, abra, snake, duck, charmander, machop, slow poke, and it's blue. Hey, dark garados!

Who are you? Two hollows? So I am not upset about this at all. upset. Wow. That is a beautiful card. What? Why did I give you those packs?

Thank you. Thank you, Jack. These packs are sponsored by Jack Shelby. Thank you. Oh, my gosh. You got to be two hollows. All right. Now Graham's coming in with the big cahuna.

Well, we haven't pulled a dark chargers. So if there was going to be one, Graham, you haven't. So we got a digger. Garbage Run. Cadabra. Sleep. Diglet, drowsy, trotini, Ponita.

magnamite, meowth. This is this... Non-hollow. Here comes Team Rocket. But your last pack? It's crazy. The last one, and we haven't gotten a Charizard yet. Talk about a nail biter.

Dude, right? Me too. Vaporion, Dark Charmilian. Good sign. Dark Dragon Air. Ponita. Ratita. Coughing. Miaoth.

Trainer. Zubat. Evie. It's green. Dark gold. Oh. There wasn't. in a dark chars. You win again, man.

Wow. I am. I'm okay with that, though. Congratulations. We're not done yet. Oh, oh, yeah, here. Yeah. All right, we've got a base set pack from Graham now. So this is something I've been holding on to for months now. I bought this one pack. This is almost $1,000 to this pack. It's a base set. I've been waiting to open. I've just been waiting for the right opportunity to open this up. This is unwaid. I have no idea what's in it.

Let's give it a shot. I'm actually really nervous on this one. Okay. So we got maintenance, Kuna, Super Portion, Duo, Abra,

Valtorb, Wiedel, Santrue, Energy, and non-holy-Pigioto. It's a cool experience. No,

not really. I'm just trying to be optimistic. You know what? That was fun for me. So, and... Oh, that was so.

awful. I tell you what, I think now is a good time to give him his present. His gift. So I gave you a crappy gift. I'm so sorry because you didn't pull out. No, that's all right. But, I mean, that's still cool. Keep your pack arts.

Like, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's it's a, it's, it's, it's, it's it. It's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, it's, Suss. But, oh, yeah, he's, he's, he's gonna give him a moment. He's not happy. I'm, I'm, I'm upset right now. Uh, let's. going through it. I hurt for you, though.

I got a $10,000 broken box. I just can't believe that I gave you the Dragonite and the Garrodome. Dude, you're an amazing friend. Yeah. When I said friend earlier, the friendship has been that much longer. But remember when I gave you two options to have, I can't make that any better. That dragon, let me look at that for a second. Well, you know what?

I'll look at it later. It's a podcast. Well, I had a good time on these packpoles, so too soon. Okay, I'm sorry. All right. I can say that because here. it's really neat. All right, let's see, let's see Graham's gift.

I'd like me to hold that. Should I try to figure out? I used to do this. This feels like Christmas. Like, I always used to feel it. Yeah. I have no idea what it is. I mean, it should be a heavy bass set pack right about now, but...

First edition, heavy base. Shoot, shadow. I mean, goodness. The only way it would be, I could afford the, like the Spanish version. All right. Oh, one block. Got you the Rolex. Might have the Rolex of Pens.

This is, wow. These are incredible pens. I've seen legitimately there are YouTube channels that review pens like this. Can't come to a housewarming party without a I know it's not that what this is, but now it is, housewarming party. I didn't bring you a pot. I'd be afraid to use this pen.

Sign a big check. Sign a big check or like a, you know, all jack's checks. Sign all jacks checks. Or your next big angel investment. That would be your special pen. Wow. That makes sense. Yeah. Look how fancy this is.

And I keep the boxes and the casing to them. I don't know if they're collectible or not, but Rolex boxes are expensive. Just the box by itself. Oh, it's upside down. Boom. And it matches your watch. These are incredible. Look at the tip of this.

Oh, my God. Thank you, man. So, yeah, that's fun. Thank you, man. Jeez. That's insane. Thank you. This has been a unique podcast episode so far.

Yeah. It's like Oprah. You get packs. You get a pen stuff. Yeah. You get a dragon. You get a game. There you get a dragon night.

All right. So you've also showed up with another thing that's pretty exciting, your watch collection. Just a few of my favorite watches that I have. This was my absolute first watch I've ever purchased. Of course, as you just saw, I blinked it out. And I bought it for $4,500. Now not the bezel. The bezel cost me, let's call it six, but it was in like 2014-15.

So it's been a long time. This one I brought it because I knew you'd like it. This is the Batman. The Batman. And you got the Jubilee Dial on that. I love that. 2020. Never been worn.

So I'm going to put that back on there. But these are, Rolex are good investments. And I'll show you real quick on why. This watch retails for $9,700. My jeweler, not the other guy, but my friend. That I actually linked those two together. And his profits went up.

But what happened is, he said, I'm the only person that he knows that would buy this for not retail. So I paid about a grand under that for the Batman. And it retails for like 15. thousand in the market. So you doubled your money in that. Absolutely. And so I didn't want to sell it. And then of course, I have my rose gold Daytona. I had a I love that. Yeah. I had a stainless steel panda, which is selling like 26,000 right now in the year market, 20,000. But my diamond dealer needed it and he took it from me. So I bought it for me for cost. When you wear watches like that, do people notice it and do they like point it out? The shiny diamond one. So I don't wear it unless I'm going like somewhere else. This has got to attract this or the Daytona has to attract way more attention. It would. blinged out. So let's call it a qualified buyer. It would track somebody that knows what they're looking at. If somebody saw this watch, they're like, hey man, that's really cool. How much for it?

Like 50 bucks? They don't know it's fully gold. But the diamond thing, shiny and they know what diamonds. What do they say to you when they know what it is? They say, geez, man. When you gamble with a shiny watch, people come sit by you and start talking to you. You know, yeah. More with the diamonds than this? Oh, yeah. Because immediately, if I see, an iced out watch. Immediately, my first go-to impression is, unless it's like, sometimes you could look at the person,

you're like, oh, you know that's real. A lot of the times, I just think it's fake. That's probably, but if I see this, I would think. That's, I would think that up for me. I would say, you're nice on that one up for me. I would just think it's fake. Like, that's my go-to, because there's,

it's so easy just to, just to fake that, you know? What should Jack get? I've been telling Jack to get a Samariner. I'm not going to buy a watch. Graham wants me to buy a watch. Samariner. He was about it the last time. Like, I'm about it, but it's just like, it's so much money, dude.

I think Jack could pick up a good Samariner at like 65. Remember we, gosh, that is so much money? When we talked about this originally, since then it's probably gone up like a thousand dollars in value. I'll give you an example. So the watch I just showed you with the shiny bezel. With that shiny bezel, it's like a $17,000 watch retail. But maybe less, maybe 15, but not much less than that. I bought that watch for $4,500 without the bezel.

Someone offered me $11 to take my diamond bezel off and put the original because I've got to keep the original bezel. And I would have been able to double money on the watch. And that was six years ago. Yep. So I got a question when you initially started out selling cars. Mm-hmm. You said that you averaged, you know, $75,000 each year when you were doing that full-time.

Your first year, how much did you make? My first, oh, so my first year, when 2008 happened, I made $59,000. So that was your first year full. time selling cars. My first, no. So that was about eight months. Eight months selling cars, 59,000. So about seven thousand. I started and then, of course, the year. But my first full year, uh, the following year was 75. And can you talk about like commissions and stuff like that and what kind of cars you were selling? Sure. Uh, basically any dealership, for anybody that's watching, I mean, I don't want to talk too many details about my store, but, you know, any dealership out

there is going to pay you about 25% in commissions on the, uh, the front side, 10% on the back, uh, which is just F and I. income, things like that, and they pay you bonuses. And we, we pay ourselves people extremely well because, you know, like me and Graham with the Rolex or giving you two packs. You know, it's, it's not always about the bottom line. Sometimes it's just about being, you know, when people think it's weird. Like, what are you doing that for? Just because. So, you know, we really take care of our staff because we feel like it's not the barn, it's the horses and the people make the difference. So you want to, you know, treat them right so they'll stay. That's smart. And what kind of cars does your

dealership sell? We have two Chevy stores, Honda, Honda, Cadillac, Nissan. We have, I said Honda. We have Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram and GMC. I think that might be 11 because there's two Chevy stores. Wow. Everybody's counting.

Wow. What do you drive? I drive a Dodge Ram. We just bought that franchise and it's pretty cool to, we've always, you know, when you don't sell it, it's like, oh, like the rival real estate agency, like don't go see them. Not that that's how you would sell it, but still. And then now I drive it, drives great.

You know, I think it's an amazing truck. And the screen is huge. Would you say you have expensive taste? I will not buy anything that doesn't make sense. So I don't know the answer to that question. Yeah, no. Food? Yeah, because crawfish are expensive where I'm from.

Because crawfish are like $7.99 a pound. You don't need to have that. So it's amazing. Well, how about this? We could end it here. Sure. But do the gambling and we'll eat, gamble, come back, and we'll see what it's to segue it.

I'm going to snap my. fingers and when I snap, we're going to reappear here after some nice dining and some gambling. And we'll tell you guys how we did. Can we still wear my avocado socks? Oh, he's got some avocado socks. These are lucky, okay? Things are going to go in our direction. We're already down 320.

We're down 20 bucks. You're up 320. 340 actually. And we'll see how the gambling pans out, right? All right. So thank you, Grant, for treating us to some dinner. Yeah. This is the iced coffee midnight hour.

Yeah. Midnight edition. It's like what, 120 in the morning right now? Something like that. So after the podcast, we went to dinner. Thank you so much for dinner.

It was so good. And then we went to Red Rock Casino where Jack and Grant and I partaked in some gambling. It's good times. I was super against it, but they convinced me

and I won $99.50 off of my $100. So the way I looked at it, he won $105 and then made a $5 charitable donation to the tip. Right. The real estate agent and car salesman ganged up on Jack. Yeah, it was a good night. Thank you guys for the peer pressure.

Yeah, you really appreciate it. How many blackjacks did you hit? I got two blackjacks, and they gave me two really cool coins for each blackjack. So I got those six. He's like those things. Silver dollars. Are these bitcoin what it is? I don't know.

But that was exciting. You guys won some pretty good money, huh? Yeah. I was up, I think, 300 and something. And that's after the tip. Yep. And you're up 300 and something too. Yep. Hashtag after the dip.

Yeah. Is that it? That sounds pretty good. I like it. We could, yeah. Well, that was pretty exciting. Also, another thing to note was at dinner. Interestingly enough, as we were about to leave, the waitress came over and she gave us, like, some dinner, some dessert.

That was on the house. Yeah. She said that the, like, the, like, the, like, the paper. A pastry chef recognized Graham. So they gave us a really cool. If you're watching, thank you so much. Thank you. Really appreciate that.
