some question yeah yeah what was the worst financial decision that you made throughout your career oh man getting married man getting married man my divorce wiped me out uh it was terrible marriage is a business and I didn't look at it like that you know I was one of those Sucker For Love kind of guys so I was oh I'm in love you know it's a business and if you don't look at it like that that could that could be one of the worst Financial mistakes you make I'm being honest being very blunt WIP me

out had to start over from scratch but the beauty of it is once you have it in you internally to build you have the dog in you to fight in you doesn't matter you'll always rebuild it's not about losing it and anybody listening it's not about losing it cuz you have the dog in you you can fight and bring it back what it really about is this it's about recovery time see if you lose it at 20 you're probably in your early 20s mid 20s it's okay you have recovery time you're young I'm 45 I'll

be 46 in two months if you lose it in your 40s your mid-30s terrible cuz you don't have the same recovery rate as someone who's 20 or 19 or 25 so also they say you are the sum total of the five people you hang around with so be careful of the people you have around you be very selective because you are the sum total of the people you hang around with so those are some of the big mistakes we make a lot of times people try to use socializing for networking you're really not networking you

just want to be social and just to be social to be social is a waste of time anytime I look at it like if you have if you're interacting with someone like I'm interacting with you there must be a reason why we're interacting there's a bartering right there's an exchange what am I getting out of talking to you some exposure maybe some likes which I really don't care about but that's the reality right what are you getting a token right some information right so anytime you interact with someone you must always ask yourself what's what

are we exchanging now real quick before we go last thing the universe teaches us this what do you do every day we breathe we inhale and we exhale you take in the oxygen and you give out the carbon dioxide right and the trees your environment takes in the dioxide and gives you back oxygen so there's a border in between you and the the the the the universe the ecosystem inhale exhale contract expand contract expand so with everything in life you got to apply that science to your life like what is the exchange here so the

people you interact with what are they what's what's the bartering what are they are there an asset is it a liability what are we exchanging here those are the mistakes that you got to avoid what's the deepest life quote that you've ever heard okay okay right now don't don't go anywhere I got it right here this is how committed I am to this quote reality is merely an illusion allbe it a very persistent one by Albert Einstein and I'm not look it's right here on my phone my screen saver I always use that to remind

me that reality is an illusion although and albeit a very persistent one none of this a curse all right Paul none of this is real it's all an illusion albeit a very persistent one and that's what makes it a reality because it's so persistent and that's Albert Einstein that's not my that's amazing thank you so much for your time my hard KNX family Wall Street has been amazing so far and we're on our way to go get our next interview right now but I've got a very special announcement to make a couple weeks ago we

of them is finance obviously I've been a Trader on the floor of the stock exchange for 137 years I went to high school with George Washington I was here for the inauguration and uh that's what I do let me ask you this my man how old are you now I've been 55 for 10 years I stop counting no I'm 55 55 yeah that's all a function of 55 you know what age is not that important easy either you know for me I'm on the board of five different companies I run seven companies I trade a

half a billion dollars a day of stock in there today my had did my day you'd be amazed I did two TV shows four uh podcast two YouTube videos I traded the market till 4:00 and I'm coming to talk to you and now an interview with the school and there you go and I'm doing an interview with you so there's no end what you can do with the with with energy and love for what you're doing 8 out of 10 businesses that start they won't make a past 5 years what's the most common mistake that

you see business owners make that prevents them from scaling and having that longevity like yourself people fall in love with an idea and they don't necessarily look at it's important to have you know Marcus lonus who he's a a billionaire who uh invests in young people's company talks about people process product and profits right people need to really identify whether their idea and their business is going to be profitable right and is going to be able to employ other people and not just fall in love with an idea because not every business is going to

work you've really got to examine it and see is it going to work and if it works pursue it if it doesn't don't be so in love with yourself and your idea that you lose sight of the long game in other words you got to kind of detach that emotion from it 100% same same thing with the stock market you know I teach people to to trade the market and people will fall in love with the trade you know we will get wrapped up in their own ego and not really understand nobody got bored taking

a profit so that's important what spend the most amount of money that you've ever made in a single year oh I don't ever talk about money because money is really not that important if you look at the internet some people say I'm worth $1.8 billion if you were to ask my family they'd go if I if if that's true they'd like to know where it is so I don't money is really you know people will ask me if I'm rich and I will say absolutely I'm rich I have a really great family I have a

job that I love I'm able to you know for me it's not important to die with the most toys that's really not that important at the end of the game if I've can motivate Inspire and Empower other people to be their best self then I'm a rich person the cash part look cash does equal Freedom it doesn't equal happiness we know that there are a lot of miserable millionaires out there so the money part is not that important but surely it it's something that you need what's the best industry people should be looking to get

into right now I talk to young people all the time and I would say to them walk around your school and look at what phone they're on what computer they use what shoes they wear what social media they're on and what they do in their spare time right because we are the greatest consumer generation of all time we are also the most loyal consumers right we love Starbucks we love Apple we love Nike we love all these things and so find companies that you love the people the process the product and the profitability and go
