16
00:01:01.799 --> 00:01:06.959
It's Monday, It's motivational Monday. But what's more important is

17
00:01:07.120 --> 00:01:11.879
it's National awesomen this day. Like we do these daily things,

18
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:15.280
Rebel will talk about today what national days they are,

19
00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:19.560
or international days or holidays. This is gonna be my

20
00:01:19.719 --> 00:01:23.920
favorite because there's nothing better, especially in the times we

21
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.640
live in right now where people are going through so

22
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:31.840
much turmoil, so many things happening in their life that

23
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.200
we just got to wake up in the morning daylight

24
00:01:35.319 --> 00:01:41.480
savings time, and realize it's National Awesomeness Day. And I

25
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:45.719
think it should be National Awesomeness Day every single day

26
00:01:45.719 --> 00:01:50.599
of the week, because everybody's awesome. Even the people I

27
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:56.640
don't like, they're awesome. Okay, even my co hosts, the

28
00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:02.359
pipe Nuts, they're awesome. If I tell you they're not, okay,

29
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:05.280
but today they are because it's an actual awesomeness day

30
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:12.759
and we have an awesome, awesome, awesome guest today. And

31
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:20.479
she's like, she's like my guide today to my past life. No,

32
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:27.360
it's not spiritual. It's because she is an investment coach

33
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:29.599
and financial.

34
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:33.840
Advisor clu ChFC. She's just.

35
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:42.439
Awesome at finances. She is awesome at helping you to

36
00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:48.080
optimize your outcomes. So we'll bring on the pipe Nuts

37
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:51.000
right now because and then we're going to bring her

38
00:02:51.080 --> 00:03:02.400
on because she is Benita bell Anderson. Well, hello, Banina, Hello,

39
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:07.319
So I want you to meet our pipe nuts here.

40
00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:11.439
These are my pipe Nuts. That's swamp Nut down there

41
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:18.759
who runs our Louisiana studio. Uh yeah, And since I'm

42
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:22.520
a New York, New Jersey Italian jew, I don't really

43
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:24.919
like her too much because she's from Louisiana.

44
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:25.759
But that's okay.

45
00:03:28.919 --> 00:03:33.680
I do like our studio Nut much better because he's

46
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:39.639
you know, his ancestries from the South, neighbors that are our.

47
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.080
Friends that I don't know.

48
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.759
I think I think Florida should become part of Mexico,

49
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:46.800
maybe at this point.

50
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:51.520
Maybe so it wouldn't be it wouldn't be so much

51
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:53.960
as the studio nut and swamp nuts.

52
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:58.639
Shouldn't you be something? Nut pipe man, I am.

53
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:04.960
The chief Nut. This is what I am. Okay, you know?

54
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:11.159
And so but and seriously, though, I think the whole

55
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:15.599
world should be friends on National Awesomeness Day. And since

56
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:18.720
we're on National Awesomeness Day since and before we get

57
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:23.720
to you, bened is it international? Oh that's even better. Okay,

58
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.759
So before we get to Benita, I want Okay, So

59
00:04:27.839 --> 00:04:30.680
this is Rebel's segment, and she's going to tell us

60
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:33.040
about all the days there are today, and I'm either

61
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.120
gonna like them or I'm gonna hate them, and we'll

62
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.480
find out which. But I already it doesn't even matter

63
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:41.439
how many I hate today. Just the fact that's International

64
00:04:41.480 --> 00:04:43.720
Awesomeness Day is enough for me.

65
00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:46.040
What else do we have rebel.

66
00:04:47.879 --> 00:04:51.639
It's Commonwealth Day, yeay or nay?

67
00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:52.600
Which one?

68
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:55.879
Well, if I were in the UK, it would make

69
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.839
it make a difference to me, but not really here

70
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:00.120
so now.

71
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:04.399
Because we don't have common Wealth Okay, So Festival of

72
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:09.560
Life in the Cracks day, Well, what was the tea

73
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:10.360
growing up?

74
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:11.959
Does that mean? Is that?

75
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:12.240
Like?

76
00:05:12.879 --> 00:05:13.360
Okay?

77
00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:15.920
So this is where we have to go more like

78
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:18.839
the Wednesday show than the Monday show right now, it

79
00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:22.680
sounds to me it's more like that's what you light

80
00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:25.000
a candle when you flatulate.

81
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:29.920
No, okay, what they show was a picture of a

82
00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.319
crack in the ground, like a crack in a sidewalk

83
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:37.120
or something with growth coming up out of it. Life

84
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:40.279
in the Cracks day, now you can take it.

85
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:43.399
Oh see, I was thinking light. I was thinking light.

86
00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:45.879
That's why I said, okay, life in the crack. So

87
00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.560
that's if in twenty twenty five, you know you don't

88
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:50.879
do any kind of scaping?

89
00:05:51.560 --> 00:05:52.439
Is that what that is?

90
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:56.360
We're not gonna go there?

91
00:05:57.519 --> 00:05:59.680
Okay? What's the next day?

92
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:05.439
Wish mean? But we're not going there? Okay, Phil day?

93
00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:08.600
You know I miss that day like I don't use

94
00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:09.879
staplers anymore.

95
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.240
But what I did Okay.

96
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:14.959
I used to celebrate, like it's so cool when you

97
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.160
put the staples in there and it's a full thing,

98
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:20.639
and then people piss you off and you can shoot

99
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:22.560
the stapler at them because it's full.

100
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:26.680
Okay, next, I don't think people okay anymore?

101
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:31.560
I know, right, Like, but I have had things stapled recently,

102
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.800
so thank god there's still a National Stapler Day.

Tissue samples? They examine tissue samples?

107
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:54.199
Well, that's just gross.

108
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:57.279
Why are you walking around and taking people's tissues and

109
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:58.160
sampling them?

110
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:02.680
There are better things today though it's National Landline Telephone Day.

111
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:03.680
We can all remember those.

112

113
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.439
days of the landline where you could I was just

114
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:13.959
talking about a story yesterday where you can eavesdrop on

115
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:18.120
your kids conversations and catch them doing stuff they're not

116
00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:20.040
supposed to be doing before they actually do it.

117
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:23.160
You know, we can't do that anymore with cell phones.

118
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:26.079
I'm sorry an angry argument.

119
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:32.319
Yeah, I miss that. I miss throwing my phone against

00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:34.759
the wall. Now it's like, oh my god, my phone's

156
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:20.320
That's the question?

157
00:09:21.159 --> 00:09:22.879
And whose bagpipe are you playing with?

158
00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:27.000

What I'm all for that.

192
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:14.080
That's gotta be the last one we talk about then,

193
00:11:14.120 --> 00:11:17.120
because we're gonna be talking about paper money and finances

194
00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:18.440
and investments and stuff.

195
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:20.559
So I'm glad that. See.

196
00:11:20.960 --> 00:11:23.480
That's why I picked Benita for you to be on today,

197
00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:26.200
because it's National Paper Money Day.

198
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:27.000
Okay.

199
00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:29.720
We're all wondering if the top penny is going to

200
00:11:29.759 --> 00:11:30.679
still be around.

201
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:34.720
Oh yeah, that would be a bummer.

202
00:11:35.360 --> 00:11:38.279
It should though, because it doesn't it take more to

203
00:11:38.519 --> 00:11:40.279
make it than what it's actually worth.

204
00:11:40.440 --> 00:11:45.440
Yes, listen, I'm a jew and I don't even pick

205
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:49.759
pennies up off the ground anymore.

206
00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:50.559
You're lucky.

207
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.399
They're not even copper anymore.

208
00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:55.399
Yeah, they're not good luck anymore. If they were made

209
00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:58.960
of copper, then you know they're worth something. Literally, you

210
00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:02.960
know what people do for copper. Okay, so my dad

211
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:07.120
had a spa store and all the warrant wiring and

212
00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.240
the whole place was copper, and his employees used to

213
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:14.840
steal that, like the copper wiring so they could go

214
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:17.360
down and sell it down at the local place like

215
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:20.399
a pawn shop or whatever it is, and making big money.

216
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:22.320
They were making more money off of the copper they

217
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:25.879
were stealing. Then they were off of working. So I

218
00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:27.600
don't know there's a problem with that, sat.

219
00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:31.440
I've heard of people who like target like construction sites

220
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.559
after they paw the wiring in to steal all the

221
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:35.279
copper wires.

222
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:40.320
Yeah, okay, not you guys got to keep your phone off.

223
00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:42.159
But I normally do this thing on my show. If

224
00:12:42.159 --> 00:12:44.360
people dare to call me during the show my show

225
00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:47.159
and are going live on the air, So hold on one.

226
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:52.559
Second, answer this call. Hello, doctor Tayler. I just want

227
00:12:52.600 --> 00:12:54.799
to tell you you are live on the air on

228
00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:57.320
the Adventures of pipe Man. Right now.

229
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:00.759
I'm going to remember not to do that.

230
00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:06.279
So will I have this rule like if people call

231
00:13:06.399 --> 00:13:10.320
me during my live show that I answered the phone,

232
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:13.840
and some people I let them promote what they do,

233
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:18.519
and other people I make fun of them. So which

234
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:24.320
which which person? Would you like to be? All right,

235
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:27.000
so let's do that. Tell everybody a little bit about you,

236
00:13:27.080 --> 00:13:29.799
and you have a new show coming up on the network,

237
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:32.759
so tell them a little bit about that, and uh,

238
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:35.279
let's give you some free promo. See it was worth

239
00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:38.080
calling at this time right now, You're lucky. The last

240
00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:43.720
person that called did not like calling.

241
00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:48.600
So yeah, I'm I'm a doctor originally and went in

242
00:13:48.720 --> 00:13:52.279
and I got interested about the Oklahoma replacement and became

243
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:55.799
more of a holistic physician. And now I'm getting really

244
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:03.919
interested in how quantum physical explains spirituality and how it

245
00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:09.120
can make a person heal. I've been trying to make people,

246
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:12.639
you know, well, but really people need to be healed

247
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:14.919
and they need to make the whole and there's an

248
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:18.080
ageless blueprint from that, and I went to Egypt to

249
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:21.559
try and study that ageless blueprint and it's all about

250
00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:23.879
bringing balance and harmony to your life so you can

251
00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:26.720
have peace. And when you're in a state of peace,

252
00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:30.559
that's when you can create whatever you want in your life.

253
00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:34.840
So it's about finding that peace so that you can

254
00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:38.679
not react to what's going on, but you can actually

255
00:14:38.720 --> 00:14:43.200
create a new life for yourself if you just follow

256
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:45.279
this ageless blueprint.

257
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:46.879
So that's that's.

258
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:51.639
The podcast that's coming up. I'm a regular guest on

259
00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:55.480
Ask the Experts with Stephen. That's how I met Dean,

260
00:14:56.200 --> 00:14:58.960
and so I'm kind of branching out from.

261
00:14:58.799 --> 00:14:59.480
That into this.

262
00:15:00.519 --> 00:15:03.919

267
00:15:13.679 --> 00:15:15.559
way to contact you at this point.

Well, I'll tell you, really, the way to really understand

269
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:20.440

00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:25.720

ain notes and.

283
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:05.080
You you just it was like you knew what you

284
00:16:05.120 --> 00:16:09.159
were doing. It's amazing. I love it. I don't talk

285
00:16:09.159 --> 00:16:12.799
about anything I don't know. You know something, it's easy

286
00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:14.240
to talk about it. That's right.

287
00:16:15.039 --> 00:16:17.200
Yeah, So that's that's kind of my motto.

288
00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:21.440
All right, well cool, So meanwhile, call me back in

289
00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:25.679
about forty five minutes to an hour, and I won't

290
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:28.159
embarrass you on my show because I'll be off the air.

291
00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:31.120
Okay, all right, no problem, thank you, all right, you

292
00:16:31.200 --> 00:16:32.200
got it. Bye bye.

293
00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:37.360
See that that being lesson to you, Benita is like

294
00:16:37.879 --> 00:16:40.320
stuff can happen during the show and you can either

295
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:43.159
just take advantage of it or let it throw you off.

296
00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:46.200
I don't let it throw you off. And here we

297
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:51.919
are paper money day. Okay and okay, so here's the thing.

298
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:56.559
My first question, I'm gonna ask some questions. We can

299
00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:01.480
have uh studio nut and swam. I'm not and ask

300
00:17:01.679 --> 00:17:05.920
questions too, but because I'm going to ask maybe questions

301
00:17:05.920 --> 00:17:09.400
a little differently because I was in your shoes. So

302
00:17:09.480 --> 00:17:13.599
I understand it very well. And I think we're in

303
00:17:13.680 --> 00:17:16.680
times where people need experts like you right now more

304
00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:19.640
than ever because people don't know what to do. I

305
00:17:19.640 --> 00:17:22.039
think at this point with everything that's going on in

306
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:25.880
the economy and the stock markets and everything else. But

307
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:32.119
my question to you, very very important, is why should

308
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:39.119
I come to Benita Belle Anderson for advice on my

309
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:44.160
finances or anything else in life? And what will my

310
00:17:44.319 --> 00:17:45.000
benefit be?

311
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:51.319
Well, you're kind of playing into my story a little bit.

312
00:17:52.039 --> 00:17:54.440
Oh good, So it was a good question. Did I

313
00:17:54.559 --> 00:17:55.640
ask a good question?

314
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:55.920
Yes?

315
00:17:55.960 --> 00:17:57.440
You did? You asked a good question.

316
00:17:57.640 --> 00:17:59.599
Okay, let's hear the answer. Rob.

317
00:18:00.559 --> 00:18:03.279
I had met my first husband in college and after

318
00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:06.799
twenty five years marriage. I won't go into the gory details,

319
00:18:06.839 --> 00:18:11.440
but I found myself going through a divorce and I

320
00:18:11.960 --> 00:18:15.880
was broken. This was like mid mid forties and I'm

321
00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:21.240
like completely broken. And the bottom line today is going

322
00:18:21.319 --> 00:18:27.359
to really be about how you think. And I remember

323
00:18:28.039 --> 00:18:31.559
what I did was I characterized myself as being curled

324
00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:34.799
up in a ball sucking my thumb because I was

325
00:18:34.960 --> 00:18:39.759
so broken by the divorce and just the change in

326
00:18:39.880 --> 00:18:42.440
life and just all the crazy things that were going on.

327
00:18:43.160 --> 00:18:48.440
And there was one day where I like snapped out

328
00:18:48.440 --> 00:18:52.240
of it and I basically said, damn it, I'm not

329
00:18:52.359 --> 00:18:54.880
going to let this destroy me. And what I did was,

330
00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:59.920
instead of playing for me and the mistakes that it

331
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:02.079
been made and the wrong that had been done to

332
00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:05.839
me and all that all this stuff, I basically started

333
00:19:05.880 --> 00:19:10.880
thinking about my three daughters and I started going, I

334
00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:14.200
need to be as whole as I can be so

335
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:16.880
I can support my girls. And so it was like

336
00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:22.640
the beginning of a purpose bigger than you, that whole concept.

337
00:19:23.559 --> 00:19:26.079
And so it was from that point on that I

338
00:19:26.160 --> 00:19:31.000
started reinventing myself. And so I am a big believer

339
00:19:31.240 --> 00:19:33.799
in why someone should listen to me is because I've

340
00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:36.640
been through it and I've lost everything at that point,

341
00:19:37.160 --> 00:19:42.240
and I saw what can happen to someone and you know,

342
00:19:42.319 --> 00:19:44.279
you can think of yourself as a good person, and

343
00:19:44.319 --> 00:19:49.559
why do bad things happen? Well, sometimes things just happen, right.

344
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:54.319
Yeah, yeah, and we learned to cope with things.

345
00:19:54.880 --> 00:20:00.440
Yes, it's not. My huge passion around this is that

346
00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:04.000
it's not what happens to you, it's what do you

347
00:20:04.079 --> 00:20:06.559
make of it and how do you get out of it?

348
00:20:07.160 --> 00:20:09.759
And so I have seen a lot of people who

349
00:20:09.839 --> 00:20:12.279
have referred others to me saying, you should go see

350
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:15.680
Bonnie because she's been through it. Well, what that means

351
00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:19.119
is that they're going to somebody that they feel is

352
00:20:19.160 --> 00:20:20.880
going to understand them.

353
00:20:21.119 --> 00:20:22.640
Yeah.

354
00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:26.880
Right, and so that's a big why. And so this

355
00:20:27.000 --> 00:20:29.079
whole thing today is kind of be I'm going to

356
00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:33.160
be saying why are you doing this? Why is it important?

357
00:20:33.599 --> 00:20:36.039
And so if you have an understanding, if you have

358
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:40.200
a backstory where you know what it feels like, then

359
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:42.319
I think you're better able to help people. You have

360
00:20:42.400 --> 00:20:47.519
empathy for them and you have some sense of what

361
00:20:47.599 --> 00:20:48.359
they're going through.

362
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:52.759
Yeah, I think you need to. I think people need

363
00:20:52.799 --> 00:20:56.359
that too. They need this sense of that, you know,

364
00:20:57.119 --> 00:21:02.119
you have walked in their shoes because people always think, oh,

365
00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:04.920
you know you wouldn't know what I'm going through, even

366
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:08.319
if it's something similar, because if it's not the same,

367
00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:12.839
you know, maybe you don't know what they're going through.

368
00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:18.279
And so you have this also this amazing radio shows

369
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:22.119
streaming TV show podcasts here on the network called.

370
00:21:22.079 --> 00:21:23.920
Ask absolutely loving what I'm doing.

371
00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:29.519
And that's the best part too, right there, ask good questions.

372
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:34.240
And actually I wasn't asking good questions. That's where that

373
00:21:34.319 --> 00:21:35.160
came from, Dean.

374
00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:37.400
Wow, So tell us about that.

375
00:21:38.720 --> 00:21:42.400
Well, all the financial mistakes I've made in my life

376
00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:47.240
and the basically I basically self sabotage myself for a

377
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:52.319
long time. And when I look back, I can go, oh,

378
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:54.759
I didn't ask good questions. I didn't even know what

379
00:21:54.799 --> 00:21:58.039
the right questions to ask were, like investing in some

380
00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:00.640
real estate stuff that I had no business being in,

381
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:05.039
and then two thousand and eight hits Well, if I

382
00:22:05.079 --> 00:22:08.519
would have known to ask some other questions, like you know,

383
00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:11.759
can you do you have the ability to pay a

384
00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:16.240
mortgage on a rental house if the market crashes, Well,

385
00:22:16.400 --> 00:22:18.799
that would have been a good question to ask myself.

386
00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:20.240
Question.

387
00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:25.720
So the whole thing about ask good questions has applied

388
00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:29.960
in many, many, many areas of my life in just

389
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:33.799
saying you need you know, which also plays into another

390
00:22:33.920 --> 00:22:39.519
little theme of today for me is invest in yourself.

391
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:44.160
Yeah, absolutely, go out.

392
00:22:44.039 --> 00:22:47.039
And get the knowledge that you need. Go to people

393
00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:50.319
who have been there, done that, you know, and there's

394
00:22:50.440 --> 00:22:53.000
there's lots of people, but don't don't you know, go

395
00:22:53.119 --> 00:22:55.599
to people that you feel are going to be able

396
00:22:55.640 --> 00:22:58.119
to be on some kind of level playing field with

397
00:22:58.160 --> 00:23:00.400
you as far as you know what they've been. That's true.

398
00:23:01.359 --> 00:23:04.119
But you have to invest in yourself because if you don't,

399
00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:07.400
you're never going to learn what's important for you.

400
00:23:09.240 --> 00:23:12.319
That's true, absolutely, and it is about what's important to you.

401
00:23:12.359 --> 00:23:15.839
And you know, I it's funny you talk about ask

402
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:20.519
good questions. I'm a big believer in questions. Questions are

403
00:23:20.680 --> 00:23:23.000
are the best way to find out everything you know.

404
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:25.920
And that's where like we put kids down when they're

405
00:23:25.960 --> 00:23:30.079
little kids because they ask ten million questions because people

406
00:23:30.519 --> 00:23:34.440
might think it's annoying, but that's how they learn. That's

407
00:23:34.480 --> 00:23:38.480
how that's how you should learn. And like me, in

408
00:23:38.559 --> 00:23:43.440
any situation in life, I always ask myself what am

409
00:23:43.440 --> 00:23:46.880
I looking to accomplish? Because that does the questions also

410
00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:51.160
do two things. They allow you to rethink things, but

411
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:55.200
they also allow you to take a pause and not react. Okay,

412
00:23:55.759 --> 00:23:58.880
you know, So whenever I'm in a reactiony mood, I'm

413
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:02.079
going to ask myself that what am I looking to accomplish?

414
00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:03.720
And usually when.

415
00:24:03.519 --> 00:24:07.519
You're reacting, you're not going to accomplish anything. So that's

416
00:24:07.519 --> 00:24:11.400
why that's a good question. And like Tony Robbins, he

417
00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:14.640
has a great question for when you don't know the

418
00:24:14.680 --> 00:24:18.240
answer to something. Like if he asks you something, you

419
00:24:18.279 --> 00:24:21.319
say and I believe this wholeheartedly, and you say I

420
00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:24.680
don't know. His response is, well, if you did know,

421
00:24:25.440 --> 00:24:26.319
then what would it be?

422
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:26.920
Right?

423
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:31.000
And it works. People think it's silly, but it changes.

424
00:24:31.079 --> 00:24:33.519
It triggers something in your head where you can actually

425
00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:37.759
think of that. Now, we happen to have your engineer

426
00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:43.000
here on the show today. So the engineer, more than

427
00:24:43.039 --> 00:24:47.720
anybody else, probably knows more about your show because they

428
00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:50.400
have to listen to every bit of it all the time.

429
00:24:50.960 --> 00:24:55.880
So let's have the engineer ask you a good question.

430
00:24:56.200 --> 00:24:57.960
I was supposed to listen. I thought I'd just have

431
00:24:58.039 --> 00:24:58.880
to engineer the show.

432
00:25:01.480 --> 00:25:02.799
He's trying to weasel out of it.

433
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:04.279
Yeah, I know, right.

434
00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:08.599
So here's the question. What is like, the most common

435
00:25:08.799 --> 00:25:15.519
problem that you face with your clients, what there's a.

436
00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:18.880
Couple one of them is wanting to just say, here,

437
00:25:19.559 --> 00:25:22.000
you take care of it, and I'm going, no, I

438
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:24.400
want you. You need to be responsible for you and

439
00:25:24.440 --> 00:25:26.559
you need to understand why you're doing what you're doing.

440
00:25:27.160 --> 00:25:30.720
So one of the problems that I have seen is

441
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:34.039
people just saying I don't want to deal with it.

442
00:25:34.599 --> 00:25:40.319
And that's fine to a point if you know what

443
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:43.000
you're doing, and then if you monitor. But I have

444
00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:46.119
seen people, you know, go through train wrecks. Well, there's

445
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:50.240
lots of examples of scammers out there who people have

446
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:53.640
just blindly given their money to somebody and then they

447
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:58.400
get scammed and all kinds of terrible things happen.

448
00:25:58.680 --> 00:25:59.799
That was my comment.

449
00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:04.279
When you give people that much power in the financial industry,

450
00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:08.359
a lot of times it might fall into the wrong hand,

451
00:26:08.519 --> 00:26:10.720
you know. And like when I was in the industry,

452
00:26:10.759 --> 00:26:12.960
I had power of attorney over a lot of my accounts,

453
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:16.279
but I still, even though I wasn't required to, would

454
00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:18.799
call them with every trade that I was going to

455
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:21.519
do and a confirmation when it was done, even though

456
00:26:21.559 --> 00:26:25.240
I didn't have to. Because that you should be a

457
00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:29.119
participant in your own financial future. Okay, and you should

458
00:26:29.279 --> 00:26:32.240
never ever look at all of the rock stars and

459
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:36.400
sports legends have ended up broke by that exact thing,

460
00:26:36.599 --> 00:26:39.920
and because they didn't know what questions to ask.

461
00:26:39.799 --> 00:26:45.160
Right, and they were divorced from having the desire to

462
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:49.160
be involved in their own success. Correct, you have to be,

463
00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:53.759
you have to have it's your life and so you

464
00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:56.519
can't give that other person that type of power. You

465
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:58.200
need to understand what you're doing.

466
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:02.279
I think it holds true healthcare too. That is why

467
00:27:02.519 --> 00:27:05.079
we have the issues we have today. And I even

468
00:27:05.160 --> 00:27:08.000
have a perfect example my own story when I had

469
00:27:08.000 --> 00:27:10.319
a heart attack and I was in the hospital and

470
00:27:10.680 --> 00:27:12.599
the doctor didn't even see me, and they were just

471
00:27:12.640 --> 00:27:15.960
gonna roll me down to do some procedure, and I

472
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:19.480
was like, wait, I want to see the doctor and

473
00:27:19.559 --> 00:27:23.000
I have questions to ask. And my son, who's now

474
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:26.599
forty and this was like seven years ago, he's like,

475
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:29.559
so was a little kid saying it. He's like, dah,

476
00:27:29.759 --> 00:27:32.599
just do what they tell you to do. No, And

477
00:27:32.640 --> 00:27:34.039
that was my exact.

478
00:27:33.680 --> 00:27:35.559
Answer to them. No, I'm not gonna do it.

479
00:27:35.880 --> 00:27:39.240
I want to know all the information so I can

480
00:27:39.319 --> 00:27:41.079
make an intelligent decision.

481
00:27:41.519 --> 00:27:43.440
So I waited for that doctor.

482
00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:45.079
Because otherwise you just go down there and you're gonna

483
00:27:45.079 --> 00:27:47.079
do whatever they want and you don't even know the

484
00:27:47.160 --> 00:27:49.559
reason why. You don't know what your risk is, you

485
00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:51.000
don't know what your reward is.

486
00:27:51.599 --> 00:27:53.599
And I want to know all that, I asked him.

487
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:54.200
Lane came up.

488
00:27:54.240 --> 00:27:56.519
I'm like, tell me the worst case scenario, the best

489
00:27:56.559 --> 00:27:59.519
case scenario, and everything else in between, so I can

490
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:02.799
make it intelligent decision of whether the risk is worth

491
00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:06.319
the reward. And that's a that's a huge phrase in

492
00:28:06.559 --> 00:28:10.119
financial world, like you need to know for your own

493
00:28:10.240 --> 00:28:13.519
personal situation with the whether the risk you're about to take,

494
00:28:13.559 --> 00:28:16.400
whether it's a small risk, big risk, doesn't matter, is

495
00:28:16.480 --> 00:28:20.799
worth the reward and if it's going to achieve the

496
00:28:20.920 --> 00:28:22.400
outcome you're looking for.

497
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:27.359
Right, yep, But here's a question for you. It's human

498
00:28:27.400 --> 00:28:30.720
nature to want what you don't have. But what happens

499
00:28:31.000 --> 00:28:33.240
when you get what you think you want but that's

500
00:28:33.240 --> 00:28:38.000
not what you really want? Oh you make course correction there?

501
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:41.119
Yeah, Well you make me think of people that have

502
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.720
lots of money and they're miserable.

503
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:50.759
Yeah, yeah, that's because huh, for what reason? How can

504
00:28:50.920 --> 00:28:51.319
they do it?

505
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:54.599
At all because they've been focused on the money. It's

506
00:28:54.640 --> 00:28:57.480
not the it's not about the money. It's about what

507
00:28:57.519 --> 00:28:59.160
are you doing with your life? What are you doing,

508
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:01.400
what's your purpose for the money?

509
00:29:01.039 --> 00:29:01.240
Why?

510
00:29:01.839 --> 00:29:03.720
What do you want to do to go out and

511
00:29:03.759 --> 00:29:04.440
help the world.

512
00:29:05.720 --> 00:29:06.440
What do you you know?

513
00:29:06.680 --> 00:29:09.119
Ashum me about the money. It's got to be about

514
00:29:09.119 --> 00:29:12.519
something bigger than you. And there's lots of examples of

515
00:29:12.599 --> 00:29:15.519
wealthy people who are doing good and they're happy and

516
00:29:15.599 --> 00:29:18.599
they're in good shape. But then there's others that are

517
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:22.039
miserable and they've been so focused on that money that

518
00:29:22.119 --> 00:29:25.039
there's nothing bigger than the money that they're looking at.

519
00:29:25.319 --> 00:29:26.720
Well, here's why they're miserable.

520
00:29:26.720 --> 00:29:29.240
And I've been in those shoes because you grow up

521
00:29:29.279 --> 00:29:32.920
in this country, especially as a male, to chase the

522
00:29:33.000 --> 00:29:38.000
almighty buck, at least in my generation and other generations

523
00:29:38.039 --> 00:29:41.680
above us. Okay, I think the younger generations are looking

524
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:45.920
to change that, which is a good thing because I mean, listen,

525
00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:49.480
that's your primary motive. But you don't know why you're

526
00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:52.400
chasing the buck. So that's the problem. That's why people

527
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:55.240
are miserable because they get the bucks, but they didn't

528
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:58.079
know why they were getting the bucks. Or what it's for,

529
00:29:58.680 --> 00:30:01.400
and so they're still in a point where they're either

530
00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:05.519
confused or they're unhappy because they're not happy because they

531
00:30:05.599 --> 00:30:10.720
defunct because this country from my generation Gen X and

532
00:30:10.839 --> 00:30:14.240
Boomers and every damn above. It's like, your basis of

533
00:30:14.279 --> 00:30:18.640
success is money. Okay, that's how success is based.

534
00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:19.880
But then you.

535
00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:21.960
Find out once you get all that money that you're

536
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:25.640
not successful because that is not the basis of success.

537
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:32.319
Happiness is the basis of success. Exactly can money provide

538
00:30:32.359 --> 00:30:35.680
that for you? It sure can, but it depends on

539
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:39.839
the person. Like we have this cookie cutter thing for everybody,

540
00:30:39.680 --> 00:30:44.039
like of what money should, why it should make you happy?

541
00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:48.799
But maybe there's four of us here. Okay. Maybe for

542
00:30:48.880 --> 00:30:50.960
one person getting a bunch of real.

543
00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:56.160
Estate and that would make them happy, Okay, for somebody

544
00:30:56.200 --> 00:30:59.079
else here, maybe the fact that they have enough money

545
00:30:59.079 --> 00:31:01.799
that they can pursue a passion of like art or

546
00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:05.039
music or something like that without worrying about making money.

547
00:31:05.640 --> 00:31:10.240
That could be success for people in Louisiana. You know,

548
00:31:10.880 --> 00:31:15.400
maybe they you know, they learn how to overcome hurricanes

549
00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:19.319
and tornadoes and that success and put money towards that.

550
00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:24.480
You know, or if you're Benita Belle Anderson, you put

551
00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:28.720
it towards change in your life right and help and

552
00:31:28.839 --> 00:31:29.839
helping other people.

553
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:33.240
Well, I invested in myself to do this podcast because

554
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.559
could I just sit back and just do whatever? Well,

555
00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:40.640
I want to still give back. I want to be

556
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:44.319
able to do more and share the things that I've

557
00:31:44.400 --> 00:31:47.559
learned now on that whole thing about you know, like

558
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:51.000
one thing that I love doing. I have a special

559
00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:55.640
lake up in northern Idaho called Priest Lake. I love

560
00:31:56.119 --> 00:31:59.400
going there with my family. Now it costs, it can

561
00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:03.720
cost life of money for like a cabin. If I

562
00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:08.359
can use money to pay for a cabin, which facilitates

563
00:32:08.440 --> 00:32:11.240
getting all of my family together to sit on the

564
00:32:11.319 --> 00:32:15.599
deck and go play in the water. And that's what

565
00:32:15.640 --> 00:32:19.400
the money's for, is to facilitate the connections with family

566
00:32:19.759 --> 00:32:21.720
and to do the things that you love and be

567
00:32:21.799 --> 00:32:23.400
in the environments that you want to be in.

568
00:32:23.799 --> 00:32:27.400
Now, I'm sure that initially you asked yourself to questions

569
00:32:27.440 --> 00:32:30.039
to find out that that was what the money was for.

570
00:32:31.079 --> 00:32:38.960
Yeah, yeah, yeah, basically, Yeah, it's been maybe fifteen to

571
00:32:39.119 --> 00:32:42.839
twenty years ago that I really started looking at I've

572
00:32:42.839 --> 00:32:44.960
been in the sinistry for twenty five years and I

573
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:45.680
really started.

574
00:32:45.720 --> 00:32:48.359
Actually it was two thousand and eight, so that would

575
00:32:48.359 --> 00:32:50.319
be eight years in because it was about two thousand

576
00:32:51.039 --> 00:32:57.519
and I started asking myself why, and so the why

577
00:32:57.799 --> 00:33:03.039
came over time, but really it was like, no, there's

578
00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:04.519
there's got there's a bigger reason.

579
00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:07.960
And here's a good example of what I'm talking about.

580
00:33:08.000 --> 00:33:11.400
I'm going to go around the table here, the proverbial

581
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:16.200
virtual table here, and I ask each person from that

582
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:18.960
all of us come from different walks of life, different

583
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:26.279
geographic locations, and possibly different generations. And so if you

584
00:33:26.400 --> 00:33:33.119
were to take one word to define success, what would

585
00:33:33.119 --> 00:33:38.559
it be? And let's start with studio nut because studio

586
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:44.480
nut represents that better, younger generation that puts a lot

587
00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:48.880
less value on paper currency, on national paper currency day.

588
00:33:49.599 --> 00:33:52.160
As a millennia, I can say that, you know, for me,

589
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:54.839
success means tranquility.

590
00:33:56.200 --> 00:34:00.799
See that that's my generation would never think of ever

591
00:34:00.880 --> 00:34:03.359
in a million years. Because if you said that to

592
00:34:03.400 --> 00:34:06.480
your dad, that that was your goal for success as

593
00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:09.800
a guy, oh my god, it would not be good.

594
00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:13.559
Well, you said to describing in one word, but it's

595
00:34:13.559 --> 00:34:16.239
a lot deeper than that, you know, because life is

596
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:19.159
very stressful. There's a lot of things that can cast

597
00:34:19.199 --> 00:34:23.400
stress or make you unhappy. Basically that the pursuit of

598
00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:28.480
happiness gives about peace. So the more you pursue that,

599
00:34:28.679 --> 00:34:32.280
the more you achieve that state of tranquility of not

600
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:35.639
having to worry about certain things because you have achieved

601
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:38.880
that level of success. If that makes and.

602
00:34:38.920 --> 00:34:41.360
That's it makes a lot of sense. And yes, there's

603
00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:43.760
so much deepness to that word. So that's why it's

604
00:34:43.760 --> 00:34:46.760
such a great answer. And you know, that's why I'm

605
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:51.039
always saying the rebel all the time, tranquilo.

606
00:34:54.840 --> 00:34:55.679
Rebel your turn.

607
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:01.719
I am not sure. I don't have a one word.

608
00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:04.559
I'm I'm one of those people who don't know.

609
00:35:05.320 --> 00:35:09.840
Okay, So if you were sure, if you were sure,

610
00:35:09.960 --> 00:35:19.000
and you had to pick one word, end it on it,

611
00:35:19.079 --> 00:35:19.719
what would it be?

612
00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:21.880
What would be?

613
00:35:22.159 --> 00:35:24.960
What was the question? I don't know she was yelling

614
00:35:25.000 --> 00:35:25.239
at you.

615
00:35:26.079 --> 00:35:30.320
I know if there was one word, you know, like,

616
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:32.320
there's one word, if you were to just think of

617
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:34.679
the first thing that comes to your head without thinking

618
00:35:34.679 --> 00:35:37.320
about it, what would it be? That would mean success

619
00:35:37.360 --> 00:35:45.000
to you, mean happiness to you? Right there is why

620
00:35:45.039 --> 00:35:48.760
you need to ask good questions. Yeah, okay, so let's

621
00:35:48.760 --> 00:35:52.800
take money first. Not an answer, No, it is an answer. Answer,

622
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:56.480
It is an answer. Now let's stay deeper. Okay, So

623
00:35:56.679 --> 00:36:01.159
what is the money can provide for you that defines

624
00:36:01.199 --> 00:36:01.960
success for you?

625
00:36:03.159 --> 00:36:05.039
So land might be your answer.

626
00:36:06.679 --> 00:36:09.119
Land, but it needs a house on it. It needs

627
00:36:09.119 --> 00:36:14.960
a building, Okay, land that's livable, sustainable, and that I

628
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:20.159
can use to replant trees and help the earth. Just one.

629
00:36:20.280 --> 00:36:20.920
Well, see that.

630
00:36:21.119 --> 00:36:24.239
But it is one thing because it's the land. Because

631
00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:26.800
without the land, you don't have the rest of it.

632
00:36:27.599 --> 00:36:29.760
Without the money, I can't get the land. See it's

633
00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:30.800
a domino effect.

634
00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:34.880
But if your goal is the land opposed to the money,

635
00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:38.440
there's much more value on that. When your goal is

636
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:41.840
the money, there's really no value because money only has

637
00:36:41.920 --> 00:36:43.440
the value we put to it.

638
00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:52.119
So you ask yourself, rebel, then ask yourself, how do

639
00:36:52.199 --> 00:36:54.239
I get the resources to buy that land?

640
00:36:54.719 --> 00:36:57.639
Mm hmm, I have a good question.

641
00:36:59.559 --> 00:37:01.880
Yeah, just start asking yourself that.

642
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:05.079
Yeah, you have to earn it, and that's the only

643
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:06.480
way you have to earn.

644
00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:08.519
It, because I don't work in a mint, so therefore

645
00:37:08.840 --> 00:37:09.960
I have to earn money.

646
00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:12.880
Okay, So ask the how question again.

647
00:37:13.239 --> 00:37:15.800
You have struck a chord here, deean.

648
00:37:16.840 --> 00:37:20.800
I think it's good though, because people don't think about it, okay,

649
00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:26.000
And that that question how is like perfect because every

650
00:37:26.039 --> 00:37:28.199
answer you give yourself you don't have to give us

651
00:37:28.239 --> 00:37:31.320
any more answers. You could just say how, like you said,

652
00:37:31.320 --> 00:37:33.159
you have to earn it. So my next question would

653
00:37:33.159 --> 00:37:36.280
be to myself how, and just keep asking that question

654
00:37:36.360 --> 00:37:37.440
until you get the answers.

655
00:37:40.000 --> 00:37:41.360
And that's chasing the dollars.

656
00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:43.400
So guess what that's what to do it?

657
00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:48.599
No, you're chasing what the dollar accomplishes. There's a big

658
00:37:48.639 --> 00:37:53.079
difference when you chase the dollars like chasing your tail.

659
00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:57.039
Say that again, Reben, I.

660
00:37:57.079 --> 00:37:59.079
Must be doing it wrong because I don't have it.

661
00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:05.360
So therefore, well, that's why you ask good questions here,

662
00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:08.480
that's why you ask good questions. What other advice do

663
00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:10.920
you have, Benita, for rebel in that realm?

664
00:38:11.280 --> 00:38:14.719
Well, remember the story I told about being completely broken

665
00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:19.480
and second my thumb and just you know, when I

666
00:38:19.519 --> 00:38:23.199
think of one word, it's persistence. Because I have been

667
00:38:23.239 --> 00:38:27.679
in the room when I have seen millionaires who met

668
00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:30.400
which millionaire is not that big of a deal anymore,

669
00:38:30.639 --> 00:38:33.239
But I have been in a room where I have

670
00:38:33.400 --> 00:38:37.440
seen a panel of like five people who have the

671
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:45.440
most horrendous examples of loss and chaos financially who have

672
00:38:45.599 --> 00:38:50.079
all yeah, who have all come back? And it's the

673
00:38:50.159 --> 00:38:54.079
reason is because remember what I told myself, I said,

674
00:38:54.199 --> 00:38:56.199
damn it, I'm not going to let this destroy me.

675
00:38:56.719 --> 00:39:00.400
I am going to find a way because my bigger

676
00:39:00.440 --> 00:39:06.199
purpose was about family and connection and how my girls

677
00:39:06.199 --> 00:39:10.559
were doing. And you know, this thing also affected a

678
00:39:10.639 --> 00:39:16.719
whole lot of friends. Yeah, and family. So persistence if

679
00:39:16.760 --> 00:39:21.440
you fail, And who is a dean that says, you know,

680
00:39:21.639 --> 00:39:24.199
is you've just found another way that it didn't work. Well,

681
00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:28.199
actually that was Edison. Yeah, ten thousand ways that he

682
00:39:28.360 --> 00:39:32.519
tried to make a light bulb. Yeah, yeah, and he

683
00:39:33.400 --> 00:39:36.280
finally found the correct way. So you have to look

684
00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:38.159
at all of this stuff in the same way.

685
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:42.280
I have viewpoints in that very much so, because you

686
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:45.199
hit one of my favorite words. If somebody people have

687
00:39:45.360 --> 00:39:48.280
known me, if they were described me in one word,

688
00:39:48.360 --> 00:39:51.280
persistent is the word, and it is one of my

689
00:39:51.440 --> 00:39:52.360
biggest things.

690
00:39:52.679 --> 00:39:53.800
Look, he's even laughing.

691
00:39:54.400 --> 00:39:57.199
It's true though.

692
00:39:58.239 --> 00:40:01.840
I I so one of my my favorite passages from

693
00:40:01.840 --> 00:40:06.719
a book that's not my book, but no, seriously, The

694
00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:09.639
Greatest Salesman in the World by ag Mandino everybody in

695
00:40:09.679 --> 00:40:12.760
the world should read that book. You won't find it

696
00:40:12.760 --> 00:40:14.760
in a self help section. You find it actually in

697
00:40:14.760 --> 00:40:18.480
the religious section. But it's not a religious book, but

698
00:40:18.760 --> 00:40:22.719
it does have some guidelines of it, which which is

699
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:26.480
kind of cool about it. So it's for changing your

700
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:30.559
habits and changing your thought processes. And it's a very

701
00:40:30.599 --> 00:40:32.840
thin book that takes ten months to read if you

702
00:40:32.920 --> 00:40:39.360
do it properly. And it has these ancient scrolls kind

703
00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:43.880
of like the Torah but different but the same concept.

704
00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:48.559
And you read these ancient scrolls, and my favorite ancient

705
00:40:48.639 --> 00:40:52.679
scroll in that book is I will persist until I succeed.

706
00:40:53.199 --> 00:40:53.800
I am not.

707
00:40:55.599 --> 00:40:58.559
I'm not sheep waiting to be pribed by my shepherd.

708
00:40:58.599 --> 00:41:00.840
I refuse to walk and talk the sheep. I am

709
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:03.079
a I am a lion, and I refuse to walk

710
00:41:03.079 --> 00:41:05.480
and talk with the sheep. The slaughter house of failure

711
00:41:05.559 --> 00:41:09.239
is not my destiny. I will persist until I succeed.

712
00:41:09.679 --> 00:41:15.360
And the greatest successes of our world in history have

713
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:19.199
all failed way more times than they succeeded. I am

714
00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:21.880
a big believer. You have to be willing to fail

715
00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:25.199
in order to succeed. A few years back, I think

716
00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:28.400
you remember rebel. I was going and polishing up on

717
00:41:28.519 --> 00:41:31.239
my ice skating lessons with a coach and he says

718
00:41:31.280 --> 00:41:34.920
to me, you never fall. And I thought that was

719
00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:37.199
a good thing. See, that's an hard thing. We think

720
00:41:37.239 --> 00:41:40.280
certain things are good things. And he said, that's not

721
00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:43.880
a good thing. That means that you're not willing to

722
00:41:44.039 --> 00:41:47.800
fall to get better. And you have to fall to

723
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:50.920
get better. And it is true when you're doing something

724
00:41:51.000 --> 00:41:54.119
like ice skating, you have to fall to get better

725
00:41:54.239 --> 00:41:56.519
at it, okay, And if you're not willing to take

726
00:41:56.519 --> 00:41:59.239
that risk, you're always going to stay at the level

727
00:41:59.320 --> 00:42:01.719
that you're at. And that's the point. Most people aren't

728
00:42:01.760 --> 00:42:04.440
willing to take that risk. Most people or they don't

729
00:42:04.440 --> 00:42:07.559
have enough confidence in themselves to take that risk. But

730
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:10.239
you know what, when you have nothing else to fall

731
00:42:10.280 --> 00:42:14.000
back on, you fall forward. I'm a big believer in that.

732
00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:16.679
When I started this radio network, it's about the same

733
00:42:16.719 --> 00:42:19.239
time you're talking about. This radio network was started in

734
00:42:19.280 --> 00:42:24.360
two thousand and eight, and basically it was the end

735
00:42:24.400 --> 00:42:26.519
of two thousand and seven. Beginn in two thousand and eight,

736
00:42:26.719 --> 00:42:29.320
we were in what was deemed then the worst ecomy

737
00:42:29.400 --> 00:42:32.840
in US history. I had just came off the worst

738
00:42:32.880 --> 00:42:36.159
time in my whole life, went through two divorces, went

739
00:42:36.199 --> 00:42:39.000
from making one hundred and fifty grand a month to zero,

740
00:42:39.480 --> 00:42:42.639
lost every bit of money I had, lost, my vehicle,

741
00:42:42.840 --> 00:42:49.559
my home, everything had zero, zip, zilch. And that's when

742
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:55.159
I started this network with a vision like I predicted,

743
00:42:55.199 --> 00:42:57.239
And Rebel can tell you she's been around long enough

744
00:42:57.239 --> 00:43:00.840
that I predicted things that were thick should all then

745
00:43:01.159 --> 00:43:06.400
that are true everyday life today. Everybody thought I was nuts,

746
00:43:06.440 --> 00:43:07.079
blah blah blah.

747
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:07.559
And that's the thing.

748
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:09.400
You have to be willing to go out and do

749
00:43:09.480 --> 00:43:12.320
things that people think you're nuts for doing, you know,

750
00:43:12.440 --> 00:43:16.079
because that's why they can't succeed, because they're not willing

751
00:43:16.119 --> 00:43:16.679
to do that.

752
00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:18.320
You know, you need to.

753
00:43:18.280 --> 00:43:21.599
Be ah producer tell it to her kids all the time.

754
00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:23.519
You have to be willing to do what other people

755
00:43:23.559 --> 00:43:23.960
won't do.

756
00:43:24.639 --> 00:43:27.000
Absolutely, I say it all the time. You have to

757
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:30.079
be willing to do It's two things I say. You

758
00:43:30.119 --> 00:43:32.679
have to be willing to do what everybody else is

759
00:43:32.719 --> 00:43:35.320
not willing to do, and you have to be willing

760
00:43:35.400 --> 00:43:38.559
to do the things that people above you like. Generally,

761
00:43:38.639 --> 00:43:44.280
people nowadays they have this aversion to people more successful

762
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:48.079
than them and instead of using them as a role model,

763
00:43:48.559 --> 00:43:51.159
they bash them, or they make fun of them, or

764
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:54.320
they do this. Listen, Like, I don't have to like

765
00:43:54.360 --> 00:43:57.320
the person to hire at my level, but obviously they

766
00:43:57.360 --> 00:43:59.960
got higher for a reason, and I want to learn

767
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:02.960
from that. I'm not going to put that down or else.

768
00:44:03.000 --> 00:44:05.800
I'm just going to stay where I am and like

769
00:44:05.920 --> 00:44:09.119
even without any yes.

770
00:44:10.559 --> 00:44:14.480
Well, I mean, and we can all see this in

771
00:44:14.599 --> 00:44:19.559
today's news, networks and everything. And the person I'm thinking

772
00:44:19.599 --> 00:44:25.679
of is Elon Musk, because that's the guy that he

773
00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:28.400
is not motivated by money. You can clearly see that

774
00:44:28.920 --> 00:44:36.119
he's motivated by addressing humanity's most pressing problems. And he's

775
00:44:36.199 --> 00:44:41.679
willing to blow up rockets too. I mean, another one

776
00:44:41.840 --> 00:44:45.840
just blew up a couple of days ago, and he

777
00:44:46.039 --> 00:44:49.760
goes on because he's he's working out what are the

778
00:44:50.679 --> 00:44:53.679
what are the things we need to learn in order

779
00:44:53.760 --> 00:44:56.920
to move forward? And he's willing to do things that

780
00:44:57.239 --> 00:45:00.280
all of everybody else is not willing to do. Yeah,

781
00:45:00.239 --> 00:45:04.159
I don't have watched millions of dollars go up in

782
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:08.639
carnage in the sky and then they go back and

783
00:45:08.679 --> 00:45:11.360
they go, oh, gee, we should have done this instead

784
00:45:11.400 --> 00:45:15.519
of that. But he's a good example of somebody that

785
00:45:15.639 --> 00:45:19.719
a lot of people either love him or hate him.

786
00:45:20.079 --> 00:45:22.239
I'll give you another good example. Have it to do

787
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:23.159
it persistence.

788
00:45:23.719 --> 00:45:27.599
And this has nothing to it liking him, not liking him,

789
00:45:27.679 --> 00:45:28.400
or what have you.

790
00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:30.480
It's just using the facts.

791
00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:35.719
There's somebody right now that ran for president three times,

792
00:45:36.119 --> 00:45:43.280
four times, failed twice, went bankruptcy several times. People bust

793
00:45:43.639 --> 00:45:45.960
his chops for going bagruptcy. I don't have a problem

794
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:47.920
with that. Means he was willing to take the risk

795
00:45:48.519 --> 00:45:51.079
to gain it all, like you have to really be

796
00:45:51.159 --> 00:45:53.639
willing to risk it all to get it all, and

797
00:45:53.880 --> 00:45:58.559
just persistent, persistent that now his nickname is the teflon,

798
00:45:58.760 --> 00:46:02.880
don you know, because but you know, whether you like

799
00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:06.840
him or not, and whether you like his policies or not,

800
00:46:08.039 --> 00:46:12.000
you have to admire the fact that nobody can take

801
00:46:12.119 --> 00:46:14.880
him down. And I don't mean take him down in

802
00:46:14.920 --> 00:46:18.559
a bad way, but he has enough belief in himself

803
00:46:18.639 --> 00:46:23.920
and enough persistence to do whatever it takes. And look,

804
00:46:24.320 --> 00:46:26.519
who would have thought that he would have won this

805
00:46:26.639 --> 00:46:32.679
election the way he did, you know. And again, nothing

806
00:46:32.719 --> 00:46:35.519
to do with politics at all, simply having to do

807
00:46:35.679 --> 00:46:39.320
with you know, most of the people that achieve great success.

808
00:46:39.400 --> 00:46:42.119
They're all hated. People don't like him, people are jealous.

809
00:46:42.639 --> 00:46:46.519
But these people have done what you're not willing to do.

810
00:46:46.880 --> 00:46:50.599
They have gone through so much hell, so much hell

811
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:53.480
to get where they are. Even you look at musicians

812
00:46:53.800 --> 00:46:56.400
like Metallica right now, one of the biggest bands in

813
00:46:56.400 --> 00:47:00.559
the world. They for ten years slept in on a

814
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:05.239
a floor with twelve other people and eight baloney sandwiches

815
00:47:05.280 --> 00:47:07.920
with no bread. Most people aren't willing to do that.

816
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:10.440
You talk to everyday people and it's like, well, I

817
00:47:10.480 --> 00:47:12.239
can't do that because then I wouldn't be able to

818
00:47:12.239 --> 00:47:14.599
pay my bills, or I can't do this, or I

819
00:47:14.599 --> 00:47:18.119
can't do that. Listen, you can't afford not to, you know.

820
00:47:18.320 --> 00:47:20.760
And so if you fall on your face, you wipe

821
00:47:20.760 --> 00:47:24.239
yourself off and pick button, pick yourself back up, and

822
00:47:24.280 --> 00:47:28.400
you just keep going. I'm not dude. If I were

823
00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:30.599
in a fight with Mike Tyson, he can knock me

824
00:47:30.760 --> 00:47:34.880
down on the ground fifty times and I'll probably wouldn't

825
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:36.199
even be able to stand and.

826
00:47:36.119 --> 00:47:37.440
I'd still stand up.

827
00:47:38.320 --> 00:47:43.280
And that's what it takes to be successful, and successful

828
00:47:43.400 --> 00:47:46.920
is defining what success means to you. I've always talked

829
00:47:46.920 --> 00:47:50.599
about this. In my seminars, define success for you, not

830
00:47:50.760 --> 00:47:54.039
society's rules. I always talk about society's rules, and that's

831
00:47:54.079 --> 00:47:57.159
why we fail because we're going after success based on

832
00:47:57.239 --> 00:48:01.239
society's rules that don't apply to us. You find out

833
00:48:01.239 --> 00:48:04.079
what applies to you, what's going to make you happy,

834
00:48:04.119 --> 00:48:07.519
what's going to make you success and successful, and follow

835
00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:09.079
that roadmap.

836
00:48:09.599 --> 00:48:11.039
That'd be more Why.

837
00:48:11.800 --> 00:48:12.400
There it is?

838
00:48:13.039 --> 00:48:16.719
That is the most important question, the most important good

839
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:20.360
question you could ever ask. There's one last important, really

840
00:48:20.400 --> 00:48:21.800
good question I have to ask.

841
00:48:23.760 --> 00:48:24.280
Banina.

842
00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:26.840
Tell everybody how they can reach out to you on

843
00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:31.360
your websites, your social media's, how they can view your show,

844
00:48:31.480 --> 00:48:33.960
how they can check out your podcasts and everything you

845
00:48:34.000 --> 00:48:35.920
want to know for them to reach out and contact you.

846
00:48:36.280 --> 00:48:38.960
There's actually probably the eiest way to answer that is

847
00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:42.480
go to the podcast website, which is ask Good Questions

848
00:48:42.599 --> 00:48:47.880
podcast dot com and under Bonus downloads is a sheet.

849
00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:50.599
There's a place there where you can go and all

850
00:48:50.639 --> 00:48:53.519
of my contact information is there, and you can also

851
00:48:53.559 --> 00:48:56.239
see a lot of the episodes that I've done.

852
00:48:57.079 --> 00:48:59.719
It also has links to your socials as links to

853
00:48:59.760 --> 00:49:04.039
all the podcast outlets for your podcast, and then you

854
00:49:04.079 --> 00:49:06.519
can catch the live show. When can they catch the

855
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:09.360
live show and where? Well, let's be the same station

856
00:49:09.519 --> 00:49:10.000
as this.

857
00:49:10.280 --> 00:49:13.760
Must be the live show, and one is in the

858
00:49:13.760 --> 00:49:17.119
background taking care of all that techie stuff that is

859
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:19.599
on Wednesdays at six pm Eastern.

860
00:49:21.440 --> 00:49:25.639
So after you listening, after you watch my show at

861
00:49:25.679 --> 00:49:29.719
one pm, just stay on the station till six so

862
00:49:30.760 --> 00:49:34.679
you can ask some good questions. And so are there

863
00:49:34.719 --> 00:49:38.199
any final words you want to leave our listeners with, Benita?

864
00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:45.880
Well, I had a quote, but it's probably too Basically,

865
00:49:47.079 --> 00:49:49.440
no matter how it comes to you, no matter what

866
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:52.559
happens in your life, it's what you make of it.

867
00:49:53.800 --> 00:49:57.920
You just decide to feel empowered, you decide to do

868
00:49:57.960 --> 00:50:02.199
something good and useful, and go with your why.

869
00:50:03.239 --> 00:50:05.639
There it is the why that's the most important thing,

870
00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:08.639
and it's usually the question we don't ask ourselves and

871
00:50:08.679 --> 00:50:12.039
we don't know, and that's why we're running aimlessly through life,

872
00:50:12.159 --> 00:50:14.960
chasing after things that we don't and we end up

873
00:50:15.000 --> 00:50:17.760
not even one in. Once we get it, the why

874
00:50:18.440 --> 00:50:22.440
will cure that. So thank you very much, Benita for

875
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:25.519
all you do to help people and your show and

876
00:50:25.559 --> 00:50:30.920
your advice and everything else. And it was a pleasure

877
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:33.280
to have you here on the Adventures of pipe Man.

878
00:50:34.039 --> 00:50:37.840

879
00:50:38.719 --> 00:50:41.960
and I can't say the same about my pipe nuts,

880
00:50:42.039 --> 00:50:44.639
but you know that's just the.

881
00:50:44.559 --> 00:50:45.159
