[00:00:03.060 to 00:00:05,020] It's another episode of our Zoom Up. [00:00:05.060 to 00:00:06,040] It's our meetup on Zoom. [00:00:06.240 to 00:00:07,950] My name is Michael Huggins coming to you live from [00:00:07.950 to 00:00:09,960] Tennessee, and I got my co-host today [00:00:09.960 to 00:00:10,540] out of Chicago. [00:00:10.680 to 00:00:11,000] What's up? [00:00:11.280 to 00:00:14,320] In the sub-zero frozen Chicago today. [00:00:15.320 to 00:00:16,300] Good luck, my friend. [00:00:16.360 to 00:00:17,780] It's going to be 45 where I'm at. [00:00:17.840 to 00:00:18,320] Sun is shining. [00:00:18.780 to 00:00:19,080] Nice. [00:00:21.100 to 00:00:22,240] All right, what are we doing here, man? [00:00:22.300 to 00:00:22,820] What are we doing here? [00:00:22.900 to 00:00:23,660] Give these guys an idea. [00:00:24.140 to 00:00:26,230] Well, folks, the reason why we're bringing these episodes [00:00:26.230 to 00:00:28,280] for you today, as well as this [00:00:28.280 to 00:00:31,190] giant playlist we've been building, is to inspire you to [00:00:31.190 to 00:00:32,840] get off your butt and go do some real [00:00:32.840 to 00:00:33,480] estate with us. [00:00:33.760 to 00:00:36,600] The idea of behind real estate investing as a way of a [00:00:36.600 to 00:00:38,800] lifestyle, as a way of making your [00:00:38.800 to 00:00:42,730] ends meet, is so empowering when you know what to do with [00:00:42.730 to 00:00:45,120] the right knowledge, with the right [00:00:45.120 to 00:00:45,460] people. [00:00:45.640 to 00:00:48,140] There's a lot of people who don't have a support system. [00:00:48.240 to 00:00:50,640] There's a lot of people who don't have any idea what to do, [00:00:50.640 to 00:00:51,880] but they all have a passion [00:00:51.880 to 00:00:52,420] for change. [00:00:52.540 to 00:00:54,880] And so our system, for years and years and years, has [00:00:54.880 to 00:00:56,620] documented hundreds and thousands [00:00:56.620 to 00:00:59,360] of people transforming their lives with financial and real [00:00:59.360 to 00:01:00,400] estate education. [00:01:00.600 to 00:01:01,660] They're paying off debt. [00:01:01.840 to 00:01:02,980] They're getting ahead of the game. [00:01:03.040 to 00:01:03,760] They're saving money. [00:01:03.880 to 00:01:06,060] They're getting cashflow and properties. [00:01:06.100 to 00:01:07,060] They're doing all sorts of stuff. [00:01:07.740 to 00:01:11,530] I replaced my yearly income with one deal, one short sale [00:01:11.530 to 00:01:13,000] that I flipped. [00:01:13.080 to 00:01:16,800] I made more money than my job was going to pay me all year. [00:01:16.880 to 00:01:18,830] And so I've been a fan of this system for the last 10 years [00:01:18.830 to 00:01:19,000] . [00:01:19.840 to 00:01:21,810] I've introduced hundreds and hundreds of people to this [00:01:21.810 to 00:01:22,300] program. [00:01:23.060 to 00:01:25,500] And because of that affected thousands of other people. [00:01:26.440 to 00:01:29,130] And so we're bringing you this video series to remind you, [00:01:29.130 to 00:01:30,780] hey, look, you can change your [00:01:30.780 to 00:01:33,480] life with the right amount of information, support, and [00:01:33.480 to 00:01:33,920] time. [00:01:34.140 to 00:01:35,120] You can change your life. [00:01:35.840 to 00:01:39,260] Scott was on this amazing track record of success in his [00:01:39.260 to 00:01:41,600] old business, his old career [00:01:41.600 to 00:01:45,080] before he found us just to have technology. [00:01:45.460 to 00:01:45,980] That's relative. [00:01:47.160 to 00:01:47,860] Wipe him out. [00:01:48.320 to 00:01:49,440] Success is relative, right? [00:01:49.440 to 00:01:52,140] So I was on a path to work in my entire life with a company [00:01:52.140 to 00:01:53,940] to, you know, I hit a hip replacement. [00:01:54.300 to 00:01:57,600] And I was okay with that until I lost that. [00:01:57.720 to 00:02:00,000] And then I found other people like in this group. [00:02:00.000 to 00:02:03,560] I met a nurse, a firefighter, an art teacher that had money [00:02:03.560 to 00:02:04,440] coming in. [00:02:04.440 to 00:02:05,760] So they didn't need to fight traffic anymore. [00:02:05.760 to 00:02:07,510] And that money just happened to be rental properties coming [00:02:07.510 to 00:02:07,740] in. [00:02:07.780 to 00:02:10,140] So I'm like, huh, maybe there's another way. [00:02:10.500 to 00:02:11,800] So I hooked up with this group. [00:02:11.820 to 00:02:14,160] And that's one of the reasons we do these Zoom-ups, this [00:02:14.160 to 00:02:15,900] meetup on Zoom, is so that you [00:02:15.900 to 00:02:18,520] can identify with other people. [00:02:18.860 to 00:02:20,900] I mean, there's going to be, we've done tons of these. [00:02:20.980 to 00:02:22,540] So there's going to be somebody that you see that's like, [00:02:22.540 to 00:02:23,240] hey, they're like me. [00:02:23.580 to 00:02:26,440] And then you get a chance to hang out with a group, right? [00:02:26.460 to 00:02:28,260] The best way to do real estate is a team. [00:02:28.340 to 00:02:28,980] It's a team sport. [00:02:28.980 to 00:02:30,930] So making sure you're doing it right with the right [00:02:30.930 to 00:02:32,560] knowledge and the right people, dotting the [00:02:32.560 to 00:02:35,410] I's, crossing the T's, doing it legally and ethically is so [00:02:35.410 to 00:02:36,960] important because you can lose [00:02:36.960 to 00:02:38,140] a lot if you do it wrong. [00:02:38.960 to 00:02:39,220] Oh, yeah. [00:02:39.920 to 00:02:40,140] Yeah. [00:02:40.200 to 00:02:42,060] There's so much potential for money to make. [00:02:42.120 to 00:02:44,440] And if you do it wrong, it could really wipe you out too. [00:02:44.740 to 00:02:47,430] So part of our goal, our mission is making sure that people [00:02:47.430 to 00:02:49,520] are doing real estate practically, [00:02:49.720 to 00:02:51,960] tactically, following, like Scott said, all the T's, all [00:02:51.960 to 00:02:53,040] the I's, making sure everything [00:02:53.040 to 00:02:55,520] is above board legally and ethically. [00:02:56.520 to 00:02:59,390] So get back with the person that invited you here to today [00:02:59.390 to 00:03:00,440] 's live one. [00:03:00.540 to 00:03:02,780] Or if you're catching the recording, check our other [00:03:02.780 to 00:03:03,880] recordings out as well as you're [00:03:03.880 to 00:03:06,410] going to want to attend an intro, a house tour and a [00:03:06.410 to 00:03:07,160] workshop. [00:03:07.380 to 00:03:08,560] We've got a couple of these coming up. [00:03:09.040 to 00:03:10,360] They are by invite only. [00:03:10.600 to 00:03:11,800] They are not open to the public. [00:03:11.800 to 00:03:13,790] So you do need to get back with the person that invited you [00:03:13.790 to 00:03:14,140] here. [00:03:14.400 to 00:03:17,790] Get on the private guest registration list and then we'll [00:03:17.790 to 00:03:19,360] get you those links so that [00:03:19.360 to 00:03:19,960] you can see. [00:03:20.580 to 00:03:22,660] I brought my mother-in-law for just a quick story. [00:03:22.740 to 00:03:24,740] I brought my mother-in-law to one of these intensives. [00:03:25.780 to 00:03:27,560] She, you know, she's got a master's degree in something, [00:03:27.560 to 00:03:28,340] something. [00:03:28.340 to 00:03:31,000] She's got a federal government job. [00:03:31.000 to 00:03:32,420] So she's feeling like she's pretty secure. [00:03:33.380 to 00:03:35,620] At the beginning, she was like, Michael, why, why are you [00:03:35.620 to 00:03:36,740] dragging me here? [00:03:36.820 to 00:03:39,300] I already did my education, blah, blah, blah. [00:03:39.380 to 00:03:39,980] It's how I got my job. [00:03:40.020 to 00:03:40,640] And I said, well, hold on. [00:03:40.680 to 00:03:41,560] This is totally different. [00:03:41.660 to 00:03:42,520] Just watch. [00:03:43.500 to 00:03:47,000] At the end of the workshop, I was, I was showing her, look, [00:03:47.000 to 00:03:47,720] I'm going to be a real [00:03:47.720 to 00:03:48,220] estate investor. [00:03:48.340 to 00:03:51,020] At the end of the workshop, she was like, holy crap, I need [00:03:51.020 to 00:03:51,640] this too. [00:03:51.760 to 00:03:53,990] She realized she was paying too much in taxes, didn't have [00:03:53.990 to 00:03:54,920] any passive income. [00:03:55.360 to 00:03:59,730] So the idea is just because you're doing okay, keep an open [00:03:59.730 to 00:04:01,740] mind, come to a workshop, come [00:04:01.740 to 00:04:03,860] to an intensive and see really what's possible. [00:04:04.720 to 00:04:06,280] So that's my plug for the events coming up. [00:04:06.280 to 00:04:07,880] Scott, I'm going to turn it over to you. [00:04:08.120 to 00:04:08,240] Yeah. [00:04:08.280 to 00:04:09,680] And at the end, I'll give you an idea. [00:04:09.760 to 00:04:11,360] We've got a really special workshop coming up. [00:04:11.440 to 00:04:12,740] So I'll hit it on the end. [00:04:12.740 to 00:04:15,840] But today we've got a special guest on. [00:04:16.000 to 00:04:19,360] Our story for today is a girl that's near and dear to my [00:04:19.360 to 00:04:20,080] heart. [00:04:20.220 to 00:04:22,680] She works with us right here in Downers Grove. [00:04:22.780 to 00:04:24,320] In fact, she lives right by the office here. [00:04:24.520 to 00:04:27,460] And I have known her since 2008. [00:04:29.060 to 00:04:30,340] It has been fun. [00:04:30.480 to 00:04:33,030] She's, I mean, when we talk about having family to work [00:04:33.030 to 00:04:34,640] with, this woman is definitely [00:04:34.640 to 00:04:35,480] part of that family. [00:04:36.040 to 00:04:38,000] She's very close to my wife these days. [00:04:38.480 to 00:04:40,780] Please help me welcome our story today. [00:04:40.980 to 00:04:41,660] Tell her story. [00:04:42.080 to 00:04:43,920] It's Candy Baker DeYoung, everybody. [00:04:45.020 to 00:04:45,460] Candy! [00:04:46.800 to 00:04:47,340] All right. [00:04:47.380 to 00:04:48,440] So Candy, give us an idea. [00:04:49.480 to 00:04:49,840] Yep. [00:04:50.080 to 00:04:53,320] Tell us exactly how, you know, what you were doing before, [00:04:53.320 to 00:04:55,020] how you got started, what kind [00:04:55.020 to 00:04:57,440] of, you know, that first deal and then maybe what you and [00:04:57.440 to 00:04:58,820] your husband are doing now. [00:04:59.500 to 00:04:59,780] Okay. [00:05:00.020 to 00:05:00,420] Absolutely. [00:05:00.680 to 00:05:03,570] So I am actually in the same office that Scott's sitting in [00:05:03.570 to 00:05:04,760] right now as well. [00:05:04.820 to 00:05:06,260] Just like what, about 20 feet away? [00:05:06.520 to 00:05:06,720] Yeah. [00:05:06.780 to 00:05:07,360] You're right over there. [00:05:08.420 to 00:05:12,060] So I've always had an interest in real estate. [00:05:12.080 to 00:05:14,380] I mean, you know, it started with Monopoly as a kid. [00:05:15.760 to 00:05:19,690] But fast forward, I decided I got married and this is my [00:05:19.690 to 00:05:21,920] first marriage, by the way. [00:05:22.240 to 00:05:25,480] And I got married and I decided I wanted to, you know, [00:05:25.480 to 00:05:26,680] become a realtor. [00:05:26.680 to 00:05:28,280] I wanted to get into real estate. [00:05:28.280 to 00:05:29,980] It was something that I really liked. [00:05:30.120 to 00:05:32,430] We wanted to buy a property and we figured that that's [00:05:32.430 to 00:05:33,340] where to start. [00:05:33.540 to 00:05:37,300] So I took the real estate, you know, test became a realtor. [00:05:37.300 to 00:05:39,440] But that was back in the 80s. [00:05:39.440 to 00:05:40,760] And I'm probably dating myself. [00:05:40.760 to 00:05:43,800] But back then, you know, the interest rates were really, [00:05:43.800 to 00:05:44,620] really high. [00:05:44.720 to 00:05:46,380] They were like 18 to 24%. [00:05:46.380 to 00:05:47,040] It was crazy. [00:05:47.520 to 00:05:49,060] And I was about 23 years old. [00:05:49.540 to 00:05:52,800] And I looked probably about 18. [00:05:53.340 to 00:05:56,440] And people didn't take me seriously when I was selling real [00:05:56.440 to 00:05:57,100] estate. [00:05:57.320 to 00:05:58,060] I mean, I did okay. [00:05:58.320 to 00:06:01,740] But so I decided I wanted to stay in that realm of real [00:06:01.740 to 00:06:02,600] estate. [00:06:03.140 to 00:06:06,490] So I worked for a property management company and I became [00:06:06.490 to 00:06:09,400] leasing director for the, I think it was the third largest [00:06:09.400 to 00:06:11,800] property manager property in Chicago. [00:06:11.940 to 00:06:15,720] And I did that for a while. [00:06:15.720 to 00:06:19,280] So I kept in that realm, but I always had a thirst because [00:06:19.280 to 00:06:22,640] I wanted to do fix and flips and I wanted to have rental [00:06:22.640 to 00:06:23,780] properties. [00:06:24.400 to 00:06:27,860] I was able to get a three unit with my first husband and I. [00:06:28.000 to 00:06:30,930] We picked it up for $50,000 and I think we sold it three [00:06:30.930 to 00:06:33,560] years later, maybe for $120,000. [00:06:34.360 to 00:06:36,980] That was in the city in Chicago. [00:06:37.820 to 00:06:40,510] And I kept asking him, I'm like, I really want to, I want [00:06:40.510 to 00:06:43,090] to take some of these classes, you know, the overnight [00:06:43.090 to 00:06:45,750] classes, you know, the ones that you're up at two in the [00:06:45.750 to 00:06:48,660] morning, like the Carlton sheets and the, all those. [00:06:48.920 to 00:06:50,820] And he never wanted to do it. [00:06:50.920 to 00:06:51,880] Never wanted to do it. [00:06:52.360 to 00:06:55,660] Fast forward, needless to say, I am no longer with him. [00:06:55.960 to 00:06:59,420] That was probably one of the reasons is our interest went [00:06:59.420 to 00:07:01,380] in different directions. [00:07:01.940 to 00:07:03,940] And he thought that they were scams. [00:07:04.180 to 00:07:08,110] And I, I knew that there was something else out there that [00:07:08.110 to 00:07:09,460] I needed to find. [00:07:09.600 to 00:07:11,860] I wanted to find that I wanted to, you know, do. [00:07:12.500 to 00:07:16,280] So, um, I'm, I'm a single mom. [00:07:16.340 to 00:07:18,860] I find myself a single mom with two little boys, four. [00:07:19.140 to 00:07:21,860] And I think my oldest was six at the time. [00:07:22.840 to 00:07:27,160] And, um, my, my first husband and I made, made good money. [00:07:27.440 to 00:07:30,300] And so I had money, I didn't have to really work, but I [00:07:30.300 to 00:07:32,320] knew that I had to sustain myself. [00:07:33.280 to 00:07:36,340] But I also wanted to balance that mix of finding something [00:07:36.340 to 00:07:40,460] that I wanted to do, which I wanted to be in real estate. [00:07:41.240 to 00:07:43,900] And, and then I also wanted to raise my kids. [00:07:44.040 to 00:07:46,240] I didn't want anybody else to raise my boys. [00:07:46.860 to 00:07:49,560] You know, I didn't want to go out and get a job and then [00:07:49.560 to 00:07:53,470] pay someone half my salary or whatever it was, you know, to [00:07:53.470 to 00:07:54,840] , to raise my kids. [00:07:54.840 to 00:07:55,900] That just wasn't my thing. [00:07:55.900 to 00:08:00,870] So, um, in 2000, let's see, I forget what, what year it was [00:08:00.870 to 00:08:06,660] , but in the, in the early 2000s, I met my current husband, [00:08:06.660 to 00:08:10,450] Ken, and we were dating and we decided that, um, we wanted [00:08:10.450 to 00:08:12,840] to get into real estate investing. [00:08:13.060 to 00:08:16,540] Now I had bought a Carlton sheets course. [00:08:17.060 to 00:08:21,380] And, um, I was, you know, I got discs and all this stuff [00:08:21.380 to 00:08:26,080] and I, I didn't, I didn't, and an 800 number and then a [00:08:26.080 to 00:08:28,520] book about four inches thick. [00:08:29.660 to 00:08:31,900] And I couldn't figure out, you know, I mean, I could, I [00:08:31.900 to 00:08:35,310] read it and I, I started going through it, but it just didn [00:08:35.310 to 00:08:36,940] 't give me what I needed. [00:08:37.020 to 00:08:37,920] It didn't give me the support. [00:08:38.060 to 00:08:39,680] So I decided to go to a bootcamp. [00:08:40.280 to 00:08:41,280] I went to a bootcamp. [00:08:41.380 to 00:08:42,680] I bought some, some coaching. [00:08:43.400 to 00:08:46,640] They would not talk to me about real estate until I went [00:08:46.640 to 00:08:50,640] through that four inch book of, um, it was, it was like [00:08:50.640 to 00:08:51,980] word problems. [00:08:52.380 to 00:08:54,080] And it wasn't real life. [00:08:54.080 to 00:08:57,520] And so, um, Ken and I talked about it. [00:08:57.560 to 00:08:59,380] I had a real estate background, right? [00:08:59.400 to 00:09:00,440] I was in property management. [00:09:01.080 to 00:09:05,050] I, uh, had, had my real estate license and my husband was a [00:09:05.050 to 00:09:06,380] contractor. [00:09:06.540 to 00:09:10,020] So we thought we had the perfect storm, right? [00:09:10.320 to 00:09:11,900] We're like, we can figure this out. [00:09:12.140 to 00:09:18,660] So we bought a, um, a property and, um, we bought it wrong. [00:09:18.940 to 00:09:22,020] This is without any education at all, other than a bootcamp [00:09:22.020 to 00:09:22,260] . [00:09:22.520 to 00:09:25,380] We did take some coaching, but the coaching, we had to go [00:09:25.380 to 00:09:28,340] through that four inch manual before they would even talk [00:09:28.340 to 00:09:28,720] to us. [00:09:29.320 to 00:09:35,590] So, um, we, we had a property during this time and we, we [00:09:35.590 to 00:09:38,060] were fixing it up. [00:09:38.420 to 00:09:39,680] We bought it wrong. [00:09:40.560 to 00:09:43,020] Um, I didn't have it in a company name. [00:09:43.020 to 00:09:44,620] I had it in my own personal name. [00:09:45.500 to 00:09:48,190] Um, I used my home equity line of credit, which wasn't a [00:09:48.190 to 00:09:50,720] bad thing, but I, I didn't use it properly. [00:09:50.720 to 00:09:54,240] Um, after fast, you know, after I took the, um, the [00:09:54.240 to 00:09:57,140] education, I realized what I did wrong. [00:09:57.820 to 00:10:00,740] So we were, this was in 2007. [00:10:01.400 to 00:10:03,640] You guys know what happened in 2008, right? [00:10:03.980 to 00:10:06,840] The market tanked 2008, 2009. [00:10:06.840 to 00:10:11,310] So we, at this point we're going to, um, we were supposed [00:10:11.310 to 00:10:16,640] to make about $40,000 with it, but because of the, what [00:10:16.640 to 00:10:17,640] happened in the market. [00:10:18.000 to 00:10:20,080] And we had to hold that property. [00:10:20.080 to 00:10:24,780] So all the, all the money that I had was going in to, to, [00:10:24.780 to 00:10:29,980] um, pay this property, pay the, um, you know, the taxes, [00:10:29.980 to 00:10:34,440] pay, uh, the electricity, um, all that stuff. [00:10:34.740 to 00:10:37,860] And this went on for some time and we were really starting [00:10:37.860 to 00:10:39,260] to run out of money. [00:10:40.560 to 00:10:50,850] And so I was faced with having to go get a job and that's [00:10:50.850 to 00:10:55,860] not what I wanted to do. [00:10:56.460 to 00:11:01,830] So I had my resume out there and someone that had known me [00:11:01.830 to 00:11:06,960] or had heard of me, contacted me, saw that I had a real [00:11:06.960 to 00:11:11,880] estate background and that I had done a flip and, um, [00:11:11.880 to 00:11:12,400] things like that. [00:11:12.400 to 00:11:15,960] And, and they invited me down to hear about an education. [00:11:15.960 to 00:11:19,000] And I, you know, I was a little bit skeptical because I had [00:11:19.000 to 00:11:22,380] already taken a bootcamp, gone to, uh, you know, had some [00:11:22.380 to 00:11:26,040] coaching with Carlton sheets and, you know, um, [00:11:26.100 to 00:11:26,820] had all that. [00:11:26.920 to 00:11:28,800] And so I went down. [00:11:29.700 to 00:11:36,660] Now I came down to this office back in 2008 behind Scott. [00:11:36.660 to 00:11:40,860] I came down to that office and jazzy hands, jazzy hands. [00:11:43.300 to 00:11:46,770] And, uh, I, there was a lot of people in the, in the entry [00:11:46.770 to 00:11:47,580] way. [00:11:47.700 to 00:11:51,490] And I, all I could think of was, uh, this is just another [00:11:51.490 to 00:11:53,040] one of those things. [00:11:53.040 to 00:11:53,360] Right. [00:11:53.600 to 00:11:55,680] But I saw two things. [00:11:56.440 to 00:11:59,510] On the front, um, marquee, when I came in or the front sign [00:11:59.510 to 00:11:59,860] . [00:11:59.860 to 00:12:01,920] And it said two names. [00:12:01.920 to 00:12:02,880] It was, it was Scott. [00:12:02.880 to 00:12:04,200] It ended up being Scott's company. [00:12:04.200 to 00:12:07,620] And then Bob, the other, um, partner in this office. [00:12:08.400 to 00:12:12,770] And I had them, their information tucked away in a folder [00:12:12.770 to 00:12:16,080] at my house because it, it was all about real estate. [00:12:16.800 to 00:12:20,080] And, and I was actually looking for more of a, a job. [00:12:20.220 to 00:12:22,920] And I wanted, I was interested more in the marketing side [00:12:22.920 to 00:12:24,900] because I needed to bring in income. [00:12:25.380 to 00:12:28,260] You know, but the fact that it was real estate based. [00:12:28.980 to 00:12:30,560] I just sat there and thought, you know what? [00:12:30.560 to 00:12:33,650] I could walk because I'm thinking this might be, you know, [00:12:33.650 to 00:12:35,660] I don't know, something I don't want to do. [00:12:36.020 to 00:12:40,450] Or I could stay and listen because I have those two names, [00:12:40.450 to 00:12:43,480] information on those two names that I had on the side. [00:12:43.480 to 00:12:45,520] So it was like Foozie and IQ. [00:12:46.200 to 00:12:47,800] And I thought, you know what, I'm going to stay. [00:12:47.940 to 00:12:50,420] And I, I literally, this was a Thursday and there was an [00:12:50.420 to 00:12:51,620] intensive coming up. [00:12:52.380 to 00:12:56,240] The intensive, um, was incredible. [00:12:56.760 to 00:13:00,690] Um, I heard the information and I, I knew right away that I [00:13:00.690 to 00:13:02,360] , I wanted to join. [00:13:02.520 to 00:13:06,610] So I did, I met Scott, talked to him and, um, and here I am [00:13:06.610 to 00:13:06,880] . [00:13:06.880 to 00:13:10,220] So I took the education, both Ken and I, um, my boy, who he [00:13:10.220 to 00:13:14,420] was my boyfriend at the time, uh, took the education and, [00:13:14.420 to 00:13:16,180] um, we started. [00:13:16.200 to 00:13:17,100] Doing flips. [00:13:17.200 to 00:13:19,540] We decided that's where we wanted to start. [00:13:19.620 to 00:13:22,500] And with his construction side and my knowledge of, you [00:13:22.500 to 00:13:25,020] know, finding properties and analyzing them. [00:13:25.420 to 00:13:29,680] And then with the education, finally backing us, um, we [00:13:29.680 to 00:13:34,040] were able to do, uh, you know, quite a few flips and we [00:13:34.040 to 00:13:35,700] have, um, rental properties. [00:13:35.700 to 00:13:38,830] And now we're working on a short-term rental, uh, which is [00:13:38.830 to 00:13:40,820] going to be, it's on five acres. [00:13:40.820 to 00:13:41,700] It's wooded acres. [00:13:41.700 to 00:13:45,630] It's in, um, about an hour and a half hour, 15 out of [00:13:45.630 to 00:13:46,560] Chicago. [00:13:47.160 to 00:13:49,660] And, uh, it's, it's going to be great because we want to [00:13:49.660 to 00:13:51,780] put all, we want to put tiny houses. [00:13:51.780 to 00:13:54,720] So right now we have a three bedroom, one bath that we're [00:13:54.720 to 00:13:57,460] turning into a two bath and we're remodeling [00:13:57.460 to 00:13:58,200] it right. [00:13:58.200 to 00:14:01,100] Currently we have a, uh, a little horse barn. [00:14:01.100 to 00:14:03,680] That's about a two horse horse barn that we're going to [00:14:03.680 to 00:14:05,400] turn into the first tiny home. [00:14:06.060 to 00:14:08,890] And then we're going to continue to put other types of [00:14:08.890 to 00:14:11,460] different kinds of tiny homes, including [00:14:11.460 to 00:14:14,220] we're looking at doing a, um, a tree house. [00:14:14.700 to 00:14:17,100] Which that is the one I really want to do. [00:14:17.280 to 00:14:20,890] And then we have an 1800 square foot pole barn that we can [00:14:20.890 to 00:14:22,020] hold events in. [00:14:22.020 to 00:14:23,820] So we could do weddings. [00:14:23.820 to 00:14:27,360] We could do, um, retreats, we corporate retreats. [00:14:27.360 to 00:14:28,920] We can do a lot of things. [00:14:28.920 to 00:14:31,140] So that's what we're focusing on now. [00:14:31.140 to 00:14:34,180] We've, we've, we're not doing the fix and flip so much [00:14:34.180 to 00:14:35,040] currently. [00:14:35.040 to 00:14:39,730] Um, it's just what we specialized in was a high end, um, [00:14:39.730 to 00:14:40,560] rehab. [00:14:40.800 to 00:14:43,910] And unless we made 60 to a hundred thousand dollars, I'm [00:14:43.910 to 00:14:46,140] not touching it, especially in this [00:14:46.140 to 00:14:47,480] market, cause it's a little crazy. [00:14:47.480 to 00:14:50,940] So we've shifted gears and we're into more passive income [00:14:50.940 to 00:14:51,960] and rentals. [00:14:51.960 to 00:14:53,880] And eventually we're going to get into notes. [00:14:55.320 to 00:14:57,360] I got a question, see you're clear. [00:14:58.200 to 00:15:01,820] So you, you see, you walk in the front here, you see what's [00:15:01.820 to 00:15:02,680] going on. [00:15:02.680 to 00:15:04,630] You go through the meeting, go through the intensive that [00:15:04.630 to 00:15:05,040] weekend. [00:15:05.040 to 00:15:08,430] You're like, oh man, between, and you had a rough time with [00:15:08.430 to 00:15:09,400] a deal in a way. [00:15:09.880 to 00:15:11,900] Uh, I heard, I saw Michael's face. [00:15:11.900 to 00:15:13,620] I'm like, oh wait, Michael wasn't born yet. [00:15:13.620 to 00:15:14,400] So he doesn't know. [00:15:14.560 to 00:15:16,140] You know, rumors to me. [00:15:16.480 to 00:15:19,100] And that was before I found this education. [00:15:19.280 to 00:15:20,520] So that was, how old were you? [00:15:20.520 to 00:15:22,620] Weren't in a way there's 20. [00:15:23.140 to 00:15:23,880] Oh, you were okay. [00:15:24.240 to 00:15:24,480] All right. [00:15:24.480 to 00:15:29,170] So, so you're, um, so between the, between the walking in [00:15:29.170 to 00:15:31,600] the building and, and then working [00:15:31.600 to 00:15:33,630] with us, how soon did you have that first deal under [00:15:33.630 to 00:15:34,200] contract? [00:15:35.320 to 00:15:39,630] Um, well, honestly, I did put some of my retirement account [00:15:39.630 to 00:15:41,860] cause I learned that I could utilize [00:15:41.860 to 00:15:42,880] my retirement account. [00:15:43.140 to 00:15:44,280] So let me back up a little bit. [00:15:44.520 to 00:15:48,310] So when we had done this deal prior to finding this [00:15:48.310 to 00:15:51,400] education, um, we were pretty much tapped [00:15:51.400 to 00:15:51,600] out. [00:15:51.600 to 00:15:54,150] And then on top of that, I was losing, I lost like a third [00:15:54.150 to 00:15:54,920] of my income. [00:15:55.640 to 00:15:58,160] And then I was also losing money in my retirement account. [00:15:59.240 to 00:16:00,940] I started taking the education. [00:16:00.940 to 00:16:04,180] And the first thing I did was I self-directed both mine and [00:16:04.180 to 00:16:05,660] Ken's retirement accounts. [00:16:06.120 to 00:16:08,920] Now I, before that I was thinking, I don't have money. [00:16:09.200 to 00:16:11,940] I can't, how am I going to get the education? [00:16:11.940 to 00:16:12,200] Right? [00:16:12.200 to 00:16:13,100] What am I going to do? [00:16:13.420 to 00:16:14,760] How am I going to do real estate? [00:16:15.260 to 00:16:17,670] Uh, so I, so I'm going to get clear and help everybody [00:16:17.670 to 00:16:18,980] understand what's going on here. [00:16:18.980 to 00:16:21,670] So because they may think, you know, there's such a, there [00:16:21.670 to 00:16:22,940] 's such a chasm between somebody [00:16:22.940 to 00:16:25,180] meeting us and then seeing that first deal appear for [00:16:25.180 to 00:16:25,820] themselves. [00:16:26.120 to 00:16:29,180] And they forget that, you know, it's like lily pad hopping. [00:16:29.180 to 00:16:30,520] Oh, I, oh, okay. [00:16:30.520 to 00:16:33,240] Now I can self-direct my retirement plan to use, right? [00:16:33.640 to 00:16:35,420] Oh, I got to set up my entities the right way. [00:16:35.520 to 00:16:36,060] Oh, wait a minute. [00:16:36.120 to 00:16:37,580] This velocity banking thing. [00:16:37.700 to 00:16:38,240] Holy crap. [00:16:38.240 to 00:16:40,920] I could actually create some space and use a HELOC off my [00:16:40.920 to 00:16:41,420] house. [00:16:41.740 to 00:16:43,780] So there's different, there's different ideas that people [00:16:43.780 to 00:16:44,700] don't understand. [00:16:44.780 to 00:16:46,120] It's just like, oh, I want to get a deal done. [00:16:46.260 to 00:16:49,670] But with all of this, you're talking about setting the, the [00:16:49.670 to 00:16:51,440] , the retirement plans up and [00:16:51.440 to 00:16:54,270] everything else, the entities up the right way for tax [00:16:54.270 to 00:16:56,180] purposes, but between, and this [00:16:56.180 to 00:16:57,340] is how fast things can happen. [00:16:57.400 to 00:16:58,020] This is my point. [00:16:58.320 to 00:17:01,060] So by the time you walked into this place and then had that [00:17:01.060 to 00:17:02,600] first deal with all of that [00:17:02.600 to 00:17:04,940] setup, what was the timeline? [00:17:06.220 to 00:17:08,480] Um, it was a little longer for me, honestly. [00:17:08.480 to 00:17:08,720] Okay. [00:17:08.720 to 00:17:09,860] I'm asking it for a timeline. [00:17:10.060 to 00:17:14,360] I would say it was about 10 months. [00:17:14.880 to 00:17:16,000] That's a long time, huh? [00:17:16.000 to 00:17:18,760] See, and this is the key you here's the problem with our [00:17:18.760 to 00:17:19,840] group, Michael. [00:17:19.900 to 00:17:20,320] Right? [00:17:20.760 to 00:17:21,100] Yeah. [00:17:21.440 to 00:17:23,260] She goes, it was longer for me. [00:17:23.600 to 00:17:24,640] 10 months. [00:17:24.880 to 00:17:25,680] Long time. [00:17:25.680 to 00:17:26,140] Right? [00:17:26.380 to 00:17:29,780] Like some people are thinking, wow, if I could do a deal [00:17:29.780 to 00:17:31,680] sometime in the future, somewhere [00:17:31.680 to 00:17:32,600] down the road. [00:17:32.940 to 00:17:35,180] And you know, we come on these webinars and it's three [00:17:35.180 to 00:17:36,920] months, four months, five months, [00:17:36.920 to 00:17:37,440] six months. [00:17:37.440 to 00:17:37,660] Right? [00:17:37.920 to 00:17:41,140] Like, well, I was a slow, I did things slow. [00:17:41.140 to 00:17:43,260] I got my first deal done in five months. [00:17:43.260 to 00:17:45,440] Like, you know, it's weird. [00:17:45.560 to 00:17:45,860] Right? [00:17:46.020 to 00:17:48,580] Like we also have to caveat it to go 10 months. [00:17:48.740 to 00:17:50,820] So you're doing all this setup. [00:17:51.060 to 00:17:52,660] You're, you're self-directing yourself. [00:17:52.660 to 00:17:54,500] You're getting your entity set up the right way. [00:17:54.820 to 00:17:55,080] Right? [00:17:55.120 to 00:17:58,520] Like all, all this pre-work to get deals done. [00:17:59.100 to 00:17:59,360] Right? [00:17:59.440 to 00:18:00,940] How much did you make on that first deal? [00:18:01.620 to 00:18:02,400] The first deal. [00:18:02.400 to 00:18:05,500] Um, I made, uh, we actually, I did it with a partner, [00:18:05.500 to 00:18:06,560] someone else. [00:18:07.100 to 00:18:09,980] Um, and we, we made about 11,000. [00:18:10.040 to 00:18:13,640] So I went from 11,000 being the lowest that I've ever made [00:18:13.640 to 00:18:15,240] on, but that was a split. [00:18:16.120 to 00:18:16,360] Okay. [00:18:16.360 to 00:18:17,240] So, okay. [00:18:17.600 to 00:18:19,360] And then I, if you want, I could tell you the highest that [00:18:19.360 to 00:18:19,940] I've ever. [00:18:19.940 to 00:18:21,820] Tell me the highest now go with the highest. [00:18:21.920 to 00:18:25,240] It was a little shy of 118,000 on one deal. [00:18:25.240 to 00:18:28,360] And that was closed within six months, beginning to end. [00:18:28.760 to 00:18:29,140] There you go. [00:18:29.500 to 00:18:29,880] Nice. [00:18:30.520 to 00:18:30,920] Nice. [00:18:30.920 to 00:18:34,000] And that was about, after I took the education, that was [00:18:34.000 to 00:18:36,260] probably, so it was in 2012 that we [00:18:36.260 to 00:18:36,860] did that one. [00:18:37.880 to 00:18:38,180] Nice. [00:18:39.100 to 00:18:41,110] Pretty soon people are going to be like, I didn't do that [00:18:41.110 to 00:18:41,640] good. [00:18:41.680 to 00:18:43,900] I only made like 110 on mine. [00:18:44.940 to 00:18:45,200] Yeah. [00:18:46.340 to 00:18:46,620] Yeah. [00:18:46.620 to 00:18:46,820] Yeah. [00:18:47.580 to 00:18:49,670] I mean, we had a guy building a hundred and a hundred unit [00:18:49.670 to 00:18:50,420] building. [00:18:50.880 to 00:18:51,120] Yeah. [00:18:51.320 to 00:18:52,580] 16, 16 units. [00:18:53.520 to 00:18:53,820] Yeah. [00:18:53.820 to 00:18:54,040] Yeah. [00:18:54.440 to 00:18:54,900] Yeah. [00:18:54.900 to 00:18:57,820] It definitely does skew what people think is normal when [00:18:57.820 to 00:18:59,500] they, when they jump into this [00:18:59.500 to 00:18:59,840] world. [00:18:59.840 to 00:19:03,250] Um, and so, I mean, candy, you're another great example, [00:19:03.250 to 00:19:04,920] unless in a year you're, you're [00:19:04.920 to 00:19:05,180] banging out deals. [00:19:05.180 to 00:19:08,550] Not only did you get the deal done, but you have the system [00:19:08.550 to 00:19:09,940] set up to continue. [00:19:10.500 to 00:19:11,940] And that's why we want to. [00:19:12.640 to 00:19:13,500] What we. [00:19:13.820 to 00:19:16,260] Equip people with ultimately is the system to continue [00:19:16.260 to 00:19:16,900] working. [00:19:16.940 to 00:19:18,840] That way you don't, you're not dependent upon us. [00:19:19.220 to 00:19:21,910] Or 1-800 numbers or things like that, but that you have a [00:19:21.910 to 00:19:24,280] system to be independent. [00:19:24.920 to 00:19:28,410] And you know, the thing that I was, when I first started [00:19:28.410 to 00:19:29,960] that I was most concerned with, [00:19:29.960 to 00:19:32,200] because my boys were little is I wanted to stay home with [00:19:32.200 to 00:19:32,480] them. [00:19:33.540 to 00:19:34,900] I was able to achieve that. [00:19:34.960 to 00:19:36,140] I didn't have to get a job. [00:19:36.360 to 00:19:38,580] So you came down, you're like, I need a job. [00:19:38.600 to 00:19:39,840] You walk in our front building. [00:19:39.840 to 00:19:41,940] You've never needed a job since you started with us. [00:19:42.540 to 00:19:42,720] Yeah. [00:19:42.840 to 00:19:43,300] That's great. [00:19:43.840 to 00:19:44,700] 13 years. [00:19:45.120 to 00:19:47,080] And yeah, yeah, exactly. [00:19:47.120 to 00:19:53,380] And my boys, I was able to teach them lessons that I never, [00:19:53.380 to 00:19:55,500] well, I couldn't have ever taught [00:19:55.500 to 00:19:57,600] them because I didn't know them, you know? [00:19:57.680 to 00:20:01,330] And I mean, it was, they, they were in my, some of our [00:20:01.330 to 00:20:06,200] deals, they were in a deal with 149 [00:20:06.380 to 00:20:08,780] or excuse me, 49 properties for 149,000. [00:20:08.780 to 00:20:12,110] They were in that deal and they were like 10 and 12 or 12 [00:20:12.110 to 00:20:12,860] and 13. [00:20:13.180 to 00:20:16,220] They, then they rolled their money into some of our deals. [00:20:16.880 to 00:20:19,520] Um, for like down payments and things like that. [00:20:19.580 to 00:20:21,840] So, um, earnest money. [00:20:21.920 to 00:20:25,710] And so I, you know, they've learned things at an age that [00:20:25.710 to 00:20:27,760] they, uh, you know, that they [00:20:27.760 to 00:20:31,000] wouldn't have had I not found and learned what I did with [00:20:31.000 to 00:20:31,820] this group. [00:20:32.240 to 00:20:32,440] Yeah. [00:20:32.440 to 00:20:33,800] You're prepping them for real life. [00:20:34.340 to 00:20:35,440] Yeah, absolutely. [00:20:35.840 to 00:20:38,960] And these kids doing deals with candy. [00:20:40.580 to 00:20:40,760] Yeah. [00:20:40.760 to 00:20:43,550] They used to, they used to break up, uh, you know, I mean, [00:20:43.550 to 00:20:45,680] we had them doing, um, trim, [00:20:45.940 to 00:20:47,420] we had them doing flooring. [00:20:47.680 to 00:20:51,720] We had them doing, um, landscaping, um, demolition. [00:20:51.720 to 00:20:53,780] So they, they've had their hand in a little bit of [00:20:53.780 to 00:20:54,520] everything. [00:20:54.980 to 00:20:55,360] Nice. [00:20:56.560 to 00:20:57,160] Way cool. [00:20:57.760 to 00:20:59,800] And that's that whole time you got to be around them. [00:20:59.800 to 00:21:01,480] You didn't have to wonder who was raising them. [00:21:01.540 to 00:21:03,700] You got to put your input. [00:21:04.240 to 00:21:07,280] And it's the thing you said there are lessons that you got [00:21:07.280 to 00:21:08,020] to teach them that [00:21:08.020 to 00:21:10,240] you, uh, and you didn't know them. [00:21:10.780 to 00:21:13,020] I first heard you say, you didn't know, you wouldn't have [00:21:13.020 to 00:21:14,260] known your kids, but you [00:21:14.260 to 00:21:16,060] didn't know the lessons, but you wouldn't have known your [00:21:16.060 to 00:21:16,600] kids either. [00:21:16.600 to 00:21:19,140] If you were constantly shoved into a daycare and your work [00:21:19.140 to 00:21:19,800] all the time. [00:21:20.140 to 00:21:21,040] Exactly. [00:21:21.040 to 00:21:25,420] I was really blessed to find this group and this education. [00:21:25.420 to 00:21:27,640] It's really, it's changed my life. [00:21:28.060 to 00:21:31,720] Um, you know, I mean, some of my best friends are here. [00:21:32.380 to 00:21:33,880] Yeah, that's important. [00:21:33.880 to 00:21:36,110] You know, like I hang out with, you know, it's easy to hang [00:21:36.110 to 00:21:36,640] out with people [00:21:36.640 to 00:21:37,540] like this, right? [00:21:37.600 to 00:21:39,330] It's, it's a lot of these to be honest with you, it's [00:21:39.330 to 00:21:40,000] easier to hang out [00:21:40.000 to 00:21:41,700] with real estate investors and a lot of my family. [00:21:42.400 to 00:21:42,860] Oh yeah. [00:21:43.180 to 00:21:43,480] Right. [00:21:43.960 to 00:21:47,200] Because they're still in a mindset where, and I'll give you [00:21:47.200 to 00:21:47,680] an example. [00:21:47.680 to 00:21:50,200] I was having a conversation with an uncle of mine talking [00:21:50.200 to 00:21:50,960] about how I went [00:21:50.960 to 00:21:55,020] from paying 40% in income tax down to 7.5% in income tax. [00:21:55.060 to 00:21:55,780] And you know what he said? [00:21:56.600 to 00:21:59,890] Well, I kind of like paying for the firefighters and the, [00:21:59.890 to 00:22:01,060] uh, policemen in the [00:22:01.120 to 00:22:01,700] schools. [00:22:01.920 to 00:22:03,780] I'm like, well, your property tax does that buddy. [00:22:04.680 to 00:22:04,900] Yeah. [00:22:05.140 to 00:22:06,780] Well, I'm doing more of that with rental properties. [00:22:07.320 to 00:22:07,660] Yeah. [00:22:07.920 to 00:22:09,800] So it's, and it's that misunderstanding, right? [00:22:09.800 to 00:22:11,540] Like, well, I like paying taxes. [00:22:11.540 to 00:22:12,320] That's your property tax. [00:22:12.320 to 00:22:13,260] I'm talking about income tax. [00:22:13.300 to 00:22:13,480] Right. [00:22:15.180 to 00:22:15,780] Do different worlds. [00:22:16.320 to 00:22:16,980] That was an uncle. [00:22:17.260 to 00:22:17,540] Right. [00:22:17.600 to 00:22:17,860] Yeah. [00:22:18.600 to 00:22:18,780] Yeah. [00:22:18.920 to 00:22:19,260] Yeah. [00:22:19.260 to 00:22:21,420] There's definitely some magic going on here, folks. [00:22:21.420 to 00:22:25,020] So, um, so get, stay connected with the person that invited [00:22:25.020 to 00:22:25,200] you to [00:22:25.200 to 00:22:28,160] this, because there's a lot more to show you that we can't [00:22:28.160 to 00:22:28,580] really cram [00:22:28.580 to 00:22:30,240] into a 20, 30 minute conversation. [00:22:31.140 to 00:22:34,200] So, um, like candy experience an intro. [00:22:34.240 to 00:22:35,460] You're going to come to an intro. [00:22:35.940 to 00:22:38,760] And then at that point, you'll either decide yes or no, or [00:22:38.760 to 00:22:39,440] you'll say, you know what? [00:22:39.440 to 00:22:40,500] I want to come to an intensive. [00:22:40.700 to 00:22:43,560] There's one coming up on, uh, February 20th.

[00:22:51.760 to 00:22:54,210] So this is, I was talking to someone last night about this [00:22:54.210 to 00:22:54,840] and they're like, well, what the [00:22:54.840 to 00:22:55,280] heck is that? [00:22:55.340 to 00:22:56,340] Mine gets paper assets. [00:22:56.340 to 00:22:57,540] And they go, oh, like stock market. [00:22:57.740 to 00:22:59,840] I said, no, we're not dealing with stocks, but we are [00:22:59.840 to 00:23:00,840] dealing with paper. [00:23:01.380 to 00:23:03,850] And the difference being that we can get cashflow from the [00:23:03.850 to 00:23:05,620] property, but we don't own the property. [00:23:05.620 to 00:23:07,430] We get cashflow from the property, but we don't have to pay [00:23:07.430 to 00:23:08,000] insurance. [00:23:08.260 to 00:23:10,020] We get cashflow from the property, but we don't have to pay [00:23:10.020 to 00:23:10,480] the tax. [00:23:10.620 to 00:23:13,080] We get cashflow, but we're not in charge of utilities, [00:23:13.080 to 00:23:15,020] maintenance, tenants, none of that. [00:23:15.060 to 00:23:16,380] But we still get cashflow from the property. [00:23:16.440 to 00:23:17,560] I'm going to say something to this. [00:23:17.620 to 00:23:19,300] I've, we've got lots of students all over the country. [00:23:19.300 to 00:23:19,600] Right. [00:23:20.040 to 00:23:20,180] Yeah. [00:23:20.180 to 00:23:23,120] And when they see the guy that's going to be teaching, he's [00:23:23.120 to 00:23:24,540] , he's the fourth largest [00:23:24.540 to 00:23:25,500] note broker in the country. [00:23:25.500 to 00:23:27,950] And the first, the largest private broker, the other ones [00:23:27.950 to 00:23:28,800] are hedge funds. [00:23:29.320 to 00:23:32,560] But when they see his, they go to his intensive, they're [00:23:32.560 to 00:23:34,600] like, why am I trying to do real [00:23:34.600 to 00:23:36,240] estate when I could just do this? [00:23:36.240 to 00:23:36,600] Right. [00:23:36.780 to 00:23:37,040] Right. [00:23:37.120 to 00:23:39,070] So you may not want to come if you're in love with real [00:23:39.070 to 00:23:40,420] estate, because after his [00:23:40.420 to 00:23:43,690] his workshop, it's going to be, you're going to be like, [00:23:43.690 to 00:23:46,180] dude, I've been doing where I've [00:23:46.180 to 00:23:47,220] been working too hard. [00:23:47.440 to 00:23:49,880] I mean, you're still in the real estate game. [00:23:49.880 to 00:23:52,290] You're just not dealing with all the liabilities of the [00:23:52.290 to 00:23:53,240] real estate game. [00:23:53.440 to 00:23:56,280] We call his class extreme passive income. [00:23:56.440 to 00:23:56,700] Yeah. [00:23:57.080 to 00:23:57,280] Yeah. [00:23:57.280 to 00:23:57,400] Yeah.

[00:24:10.220 to 00:24:12,460] And then beyond that, our education has all that stuff, [00:24:12.460 to 00:24:12,840] right? [00:24:12.840 to 00:24:15,300] Dealing with paper notes, tax liens, deeds. [00:24:15.300 to 00:24:16,580] You want to go beyond the notes. [00:24:16.820 to 00:24:19,180] You got tax liens, deeds, being a short-term lender. [00:24:19.180 to 00:24:20,400] There's lots of that going on. [00:24:21.240 to 00:24:21,340] Yeah. [00:24:21.340 to 00:24:21,680] One little.

[00:24:24.440 to 00:24:26,680] Like we said, there's, there's way more than we can fit [00:24:26.680 to 00:24:27,760] inside of this half hour. [00:24:28.140 to 00:24:31,400] There's, I mean, I think this is episode 74 or 75 now. [00:24:32.240 to 00:24:36,080] So, I mean, we got, we got, and I don't know if longer is [00:24:36.080 to 00:24:38,340] an indication of better, but we're [00:24:38.340 to 00:24:39,000] getting longer. [00:24:41.000 to 00:24:42,000] Yeah. [00:24:42.000 to 00:24:43,460] We used to wrap these up in 10 minutes. [00:24:43.460 to 00:24:43,540] Yeah. [00:24:43.540 to 00:24:44,580] We're like, 10 minutes done. [00:24:44.580 to 00:24:47,300] And now we're like, we got too much to say. [00:24:47.720 to 00:24:48,620] But this is great. [00:24:48.700 to 00:24:50,600] I mean, Candy's story is a perfect example. [00:24:50.760 to 00:24:54,150] Someone who had a little bit of desire and a little bit of [00:24:54.150 to 00:24:56,280] experience, but couldn't get [00:24:56.280 to 00:24:59,760] the system down society was saying, no, other people and [00:24:59.760 to 00:25:02,020] families saying, go get a job, give [00:25:02.020 to 00:25:02,620] up, give up. [00:25:02.700 to 00:25:04,440] She's saying, no, I'm going to stay focused. [00:25:04.900 to 00:25:08,320] And then to stick with this system and have it prosper. [00:25:08.320 to 00:25:11,300] And then not only that, but you're helping other people. [00:25:11.980 to 00:25:13,580] That it's a beautiful thing to see. [00:25:13.580 to 00:25:15,520] So I just want to recap that for those of you who are [00:25:15.520 to 00:25:17,780] watching it, send this recording [00:25:17.780 to 00:25:19,940] to someone who you think it matters to.
