What's up, everybody?

Welcome back to another episode of Paul's Best Podcast.

This is the show where there's nothing negative.

We only talk the best, and today my guest is one of the Actually, I'm gonna say the best at what he does.

Okay, Moshaheim office here, the watch King is here.

Everybody on Paul's Best Podcast.

Thank you so much for being here.

Dude, thank you for having me.

Dude.

Every Like, people.

Were just like, when you do watches, you gotta get this guy.

When you do watches, you gotta get this guy.

Yes, Like, I mean, listen, there are people that there are people that do sneakers, there are people that do fashion, but there are people that do watches.

And you are are the watch king man, and it's sick.

And you told me before we started to say, you've been doing this thing for sixteen years.

March two thousand and nine, I added up in the street by accident.

But Mars two thousand and nine, what do you mean not educated?

Right?

We grew up orthodox hasidik.

I was born in a household like that, so we're not educated.

We do only know the Bible and stuff.

So sure twenty two I had no job.

I went to the street.

And then I fell off with the job with flipping watches legit accident?

How does that start?

By accident?

So I needed a job.

I was twenty two.

I need a job.

I don't know what I was doing.

And I went to forty seven because whatever uneducated Jewish guy, what does he do?

Either barbers or watchmakers or jewelers, whatever the fuck you want to call it.

So I went to forty seventh Street to get a job.

And then my boy Gabby asked me, if I have a couple of dollars, they'll start teaching me to watch business.

That's what happened.

I bought a watch eleven thousand, sold it for eight hundred dollars, and literally thirty minutes and I was like, I'm not doing anything else.

This is it, this is it.

Wow, you got the bug right away, you got the itch.

I got the itch.

I was like, you know what, that's what I want to do.

My dream was to be a doctor.

That's my dream.

I want to be a plastic surgery you know, Yeah, how do woman look harder?

Or whatever the hell it is, But that was my dream.

And then we couldn't go to college because my dad wouldn't allow us to go to college against like the Hasidic religions.

This is my second option.

I love it.

That's all.

So before we get into all the best watching and stuff, which we're obviously gonna do, do you so?

And I obviously you're based in New York and people could find you there.

Blind blocks from here.

But do you travel like?

Do you travel like you go to la and is the same thing or it's more like they come to you here.

So I first started, I started doing wholesale.

So I lived in Hong Kong for eight years.

What yes, other than Hong Kong for eight years till COVID, so probably a little less than eight years.

It's twenty fourteen till twenty twenty, so that's six seven years.

And I still go now anyway.

But I lived there, let's say for seven years, Okay.

I built my business there.

I started buying there because China is the hub of the watch market.

They decide, is that right?

Yeah?

Yeah?

Well how many billions of people are there?

Don't even know?

Yeah, they control the market.

They control everything else unfortunately, but that's what they do.

So I would buy their sell here and keep on doing it.

So I lived there two weeks, came home two weeks, lived there two weeks.

He came home two weeks, right, And that's what I did.

And I started doing B to B so I would sell like from wholesale at all.

So I'll sell the stores downstairs on forty seven stery, I would be upstairs.

I'll just buy.

I would sell, okay, get paid, go back and do it again all over.

Live there for two weeks, by again, ship it here, and then do it all over again.

So you were you were basically doing that every two weeks on an airplane.

Yeah, till today.

I still do it till today.

Oh my, So what was atle bit like Hong Kong?

It must have been like, oh, it's beautiful.

It New York City, New York City, just busier, barely people speak English on one side and then other side is all British people.

So it's it's it's it's New York City.

Was the food incredible?

Yeah, in some places were incredible.

In some places that smelled like us like here, like here, it's your home at least you don't care, right, But Hong Kong wasn't is incredible incredible, incredible.

And I saw you did something.

I saw you said something that I thought was very interesting.

How like, because when I told people I was going to talk to you, they were like, oh, he's got rules.

He's got rules when you come in and.

He'll tell you.

So I got interested.

I'm like, what do you be rules like?

Cause you know, like look for me.

It's like people, I tell people things about stand up comedy that they didn't know, but I don't know shit like that.

So like, there's rules when you come in to my store.

Right now, there's rule Like somebody said, and but you said something to somebody which I loved.

You were teaching somebody how to the best way to negotiate correct And I heard you say, and I thought it was very interesting.

I thought it was very smart.

So it was a brilliant thing.

Where you go, if you come in with the watch, you have a rolex or something, and and you want thirteen K for it, right, don't come you said, don't come in here and go, hey, here's my roles.

What can you give me for it?

You said you want them to say what they want?

Now, like what what what does that do?

Number One in my store?

Is your watch your price?

Okay, it's your watch, it's your price.

For example, you want to you want to sell me the watch you're wearing.

You know exactly how much you want for it?

Correct, you know in your brain more or less how much you want for it before I walk in.

I have a number, You have a them.

I have a number.

People tell me I don't know I started.

Okay.

So if the watch worth twenty K, I say I want to offer you seven thousand, might be like, no, I want Also, you have a price, all right?

Do you have a price?

Right?

So I always say, don't negotiate against yourself.

Let's say you want to sell me a watch that's w twenty k thirteen thousand, and I'll tell you it's worth sixteen.

I'm negotiating against myself because baby, you'll give it me for thirteen.

Right.

So that's always been rule by me.

You walk in, you tell me you don't have a price, there's the door, and I have a nice day.

Have you done that?

But like any and you've really sent people out?

Of course I've sent people out.

The most time I send people out.

Somebody comes in and ask me for a watch on the window.

How much is it?

I'll say thirteen thousand.

He pulls out of watches you want to buy the same month for thirteen.

Tell him here's the door.

Get the fuck out of here.

Oh wow, don't do that shit, Raycing.

I work for free, right, I'm thirteen.

It costs me probably twelve, right, got to make some money.

What do you mean I work for free?

Don't do that.

That's that's like some stupid ship.

Be a man, come to me, be like, yo, I have this watch, I want to get XYZ.

We start negotiating.

Don't come to me on the like backwards.

That's awesome.

Do you ever?

Will you ever not hurt your deal?

But has a watch ever come in that you loved so much?

Like that you love so much that you'll you'll kind of bend.

A little bit.

So just I'll tell you a story.

I love that right away.

You just got out your story.

Yeah.

We have a salesman named Danny.

I love that kid.

He's with me since day one.

Okay, a guy walked in Darty's privileged.

I was doing TikTok live.

He wants to sell two aps ap or some other watch and he's trying to talk to about Listen, I'm doing live.

Just deal with Danny, and he's being rude to my guy, and I really wanted those watches.

They were a good price.

But he's being rude to him.

He's like, I'm not talking to you.

I'm talking to I'm going to the boss.

I'm like, bro, just talk to him.

I'm talked about saying, no, do me a favorite, take your shit and get the fuck out of my store.

Don't ever disrespect my guy here because this is my this is my eye, this is my ear, this is my guy.

Right.

I want you to deal with him for a reason, right works he gets commissioned from everything he buys herself.

I want to help him.

You're gonna be respectful to me.

I'll throw you out.

I don't care what you have.

I did it and he loved and he's like, he came back.

I sold to watch somebody.

I don't care, right, because, yeah, that's that's there's.

Certain things that will not bend.

Think I'm gonna make one hundred and fifty thousand dollars in the watch, and yeah, of course, but I'm saying it's gotta be a couple of thousands.

You got to treat my people with respect.

It's not my people, it's me.

It's my family.

For me, my workers are my employees like my family, you know, like my brothers.

Like Josh is like my little brother.

He's been with me.

This is day one.

Wow, this is day one.

He started my whole social media.

Wow, who guided me?

Told me what to do?

So he's like my little brother.

We were together two and a half years, every single day.

But you're doing good, Josh, whatever you're doing, you're doing good.

No that I've noticed that when I go down there and I got the like I was telling you before we started recording, my father got diamonds down there.

I got diamonds down there.

I do notice that it is a family.

When you go into a place like that.

Everybody has everybody's back, everybody can speak for everybody.

And what I noticed, which is different is you know, sometimes you go to a place and one person goes, hey, come here, I'll do it different.

But like it seemed like everybody's on the same page.

Yes and no, yes and no.

So just people who come ask to me and they're like, oh, he doesn't work here anymore.

Really in your not on forty seventh Street.

Oh okay, not my people they're looking for you.

God comes out.

We's watching on Instagram and oh he doesn't work here anymore.

He moved upstairs.

He's not here.

What do you need?

We'll sell it?

Oh okay.

So it's so it's close with just the people that are your.

People's to cut thro own business bro.

So why wild West?

It's not like you've been there?

Is it?

Is?

There?

Is there?

Like beefs is there?

Like where like you on somebody a block away is talking about you, guys.

And what the guy next to you is talking about you?

The fight with you for a customer out of nowhere.

I always be like, just keep the customer.

It's fine.

So you know, you know what that made me think of mo shit made me think of uncut gems?

But was that?

Was that some real some real stuff?

A lot of it is almost real.

I mean it's a lot of it outplayed, but it's a lot of it's almost really real.

The hustle and bustle on how that's crazy.

You'll walk down the shoot thirty people will call you to their store, right, come here, come here, we buy, we buy.

The guy grabbed you cups to this store like, so I do the opposite.

I tell the customer, don't buy.

I'll educate you.

I'll tell you what to buy.

I don't go home think about it because I'm here for the next ten years.

I'm not going anywhere.

If you feel comfortable enough to buy, you come back.

If it's not, it wasn't meant to be.

That's so smart.

It's almost like the pretty girl.

It's like the pretty girl at the club.

You're like, everybody's after her.

I'm just gonna look at her.

It's gonna make her crazy.

Why is he not looking at me?

Yeah, well he walked away everybody else I want?

Yeah, yeah exactly.

So could you go listen?

Because you know your product.

You know your product, and you know the quality you give.

So go because I'm not Because that's funny you said I'm gonna be here, exactly, I'm.

Gonna be here.

And also I want the customer to feel like like he got educated, like I taught him something.

That's my main goal is to teach the consumer, the customer what he's buying right, so he's comfortable.

Because usually they go, they get banged out.

She's celebrities.

When they go, they get banged down.

They're sick of it.

Yeah.

I have a lot of hate on forty seven because what I do is I tell people not to buy stuff.

They come for me.

I want to I style watch, don't buy it.

Imagine you tell somebody coming into your story, don't buy this bag.

Yeah it's not for you.

Or don't buy this sneaker.

You're gonna lose your shirt when you sell it.

That's what I do.

I have it.

Yeah, but the guy doesn't cure.

But if you care and you tell me I want to watch it, I can tomorrow sell and not lose my shirt, maybe lose a thousand, Like don't buy diamonds, don't buy icetyle.

Buy this.

This has the chance to go up tomorrow.

This doesn't.

This will kill you in the future.

This gives you thirty percent of your money.

This will That's what I do.

And that's why some people don't like that.

They hate me, But it's okay.

I don't want them.

I want the customers to love me.

I don't care about the competition.

Yeah no, that's amazing, man.

That makes a lot of sense.

Okay, guys.

Before we continue with the.

Podcast, I just want to announce some stand up comedy dates I have.

On December twelfth, I will be in Newtown, Connecticut at the Edmundtown Hall Theater Friday night, December twelfth, then New.

Year's Eve December thirty.

First, I will be at the Great Comedy Connection in Providence, Rhode Island for two shows, and then going into twenty twenty six.

On January eighth, the Washington DC Improv and then Valentine's Day weekend February twelfth through the fourteenth, I will be at the Great Side Splitters Comedy Club in Tampa, Florida.

And now let's.

Get back to the podcast.

You said something that I think happens a lot also with real estate and other things with celebrities.

Right, they take advantage because there slepty so whether it's a house, whether it's oh, they'll pay, they'll pay.

Right, although any number they'll pay.

And I do the opposite.

I don't even want to make money on you.

Just we're like family.

It's fine.

I'll make money on somebody else, or I'll make a cup or you know what I do.

What I do is to the big timer, I said, this is my cost.

How much you let me make?

Whatever you say I'll make.

Wow, I'll put the ball on your court.

Wow, you come into my story.

I like it, like you know, here's my cost.

This is my tag.

This is my divided.

My cost is twelve thousand.

How much you want to give me profit?

You tell me twelve five.

I say, okay, you'll tell me cost.

I'll say, okay, no problem.

Wow, that's brilliant, dude.

It happened with one big guy.

I'm not gonna say his name.

He bought an EP for me.

It was like a frosted.

That cost was three thirty.

I told listen, we're sitting at a basketball games, like I want to buy this watch.

And I'm like, look, here's the watch.

This is my cost.

Like, you're happy with fifteen thousand?

I said, yeah.

He's like all right done.

Wow.

He feels comfortable that eating gets because I'm sure if you want on the streety'll charge you four hundred thousand.

They'll kill us.

The guy makes a hundred million dollars a year, why not just bang it?

Who could?

What's thirty thousand for him?

It's still money?

Yeah, And you know what's so short sighted?

It's so short sighted to bang them out because guess what, everybody comes to you now, right.

He tells his other players, his other friends to come to you, because you could have banged him out.

For four hundred Yeah, but instead it was.

I watch everybody in four sells.

She's going to copy this now, but you heard it here first.

I don't care.

I say how it is.

That's what I do.

That's my trick.

Oh, that's why you're the watch kids, and that's why everybody, That's why I heard about it.

That's why I heard about you.

That's why people said, Oh, if you're talking about the best, you got to get the best.

So now, so here's all I want to ask you, because because there's a lot of people that can't afford.

There's like different levels of watch people.

Right, there's the not then that there's the lunatics, and then there's the middle, and then there's somebody that'll go and get So I want to ask you this before we get into the best watches, because I want to talk to you about the best watches in the world.

But but what are some good watches for?

Like I almost want to say, like a beginner.

And question, amazing question.

So listen, you should buy always sport models and roles.

That's the best watch to get into.

Submarriners, Batman's Hulks pepsis whatever the hell you want to call it.

Starbucks sprites.

Those are the watches that have the opportunity to go up in value in the future.

It's not investible.

I don't preach all it's invest in investments.

Watch are not an investment.

Okay.

It's better than a luxury car, right, but it's not like you're gonna lose money today if you buy it from like a retailer or whatever it is.

Yeah, you want to sell it, Okay, then you lose a couple of hundred dollars.

A thousand dollars depends on heart somebody texted you when you bought it, okay.

But for example, a Hulk ten years ago was seven k today it's eighteen to twenty thousand.

Okay, you can wear a watch for ten years and make money, right, you gotta be patient.

But if you can start going with the gold watches, the buzz down watches the day just yeah, they're nice, they're affordable.

They're not investible, they're.

Not yet it's not okay, right, So it's.

Any sport model Rolex ninety percent of them have the opportunity to increase value in the future.

Now.

Now, other than Rolex Emotion, what would you say.

That's it?

You just go everything else as a risk.

I mean, yeah, they have paddicks, apiece of paddics, different level epis, different level beginners.

Right, when you start buying an exotic car, what's luxury car?

Is the first car you're buying a BMW or Mercedes.

Right, Sorry guys, but that's the truth, right, right, So you buy the the safe bed is Rolex.

Rolex is the safest bet for the beginner.

For a person who's a big dog and wants to buy a paddic, you buy Nautilus Aquanas.

Doos also have the chance to go up.

We're talking about now June ten to twenty thousand, right, we're doing that budget to twenty thousand sports models, Rolexes sports Yeah, okay, you could buy djous.

You're not gonna lose your shirt, but it's not gonna go up in ten years like a haul deer or like a Batman did or like whatever.

Okay, gotcha?

So what what makes one go?

What makes one start at seven and then get to twenty five?

And let's say one starts at seven and just says like gets to like ten or stays at seven the man.

Burke and sells over a retail Why because suckers won, and they won't give it to you demand exactly.

Roots will give you a day dress, but they won't give you a batman or a back girl or a hulk do ten years ago they would beg me to buy this merchandise that thirty five percent off.

They will beg me.

Dealers will call me please.

Nobody's buying till COVID.

Once COVID came, the whole market change it did.

Yeah, I went everything went crazy.

You can't go into Roles buy anything.

Sorry, we don't have I can't imagine you go into a store you want to spend twenty thousand and sell you No, how would you feel?

Now you want it?

Because reverse psychology?

Oh you told me no, Now I want it.

You know what's hysterical.

Somebody told me to ask you that.

My podcast partner on my other show, Robert Kelly, he just said, he goes what he goes.

Can you do me a favor?

He goes?

Ask him why I can't go into Rolex and buy?

But but do they make exceptions like if you no?

So if I go into Rolex right now with twenty five thousand.

One hundred thousand, I want find I can say I said, so you come to me, I'll be on my knees.

Is that their strategy to make the collegey wow?

Because they saw the demand?

Like, you know what, we're stopping all this shit.

Now you have to build a profile.

All you want to do.

You want to day twenty, you're gonna make double your money.

Buy a piece of shit JEWELR.

They're gonna lose forty thousand dollars and then we'll give you a Daytona for retail.

So in your band, you're overspending year to get a Daytona in retail.

Oh, it makes no sense because you're gonna lose money regardless by as well as go buy it in the green market over retail.

Right, But people don't think like that.

Yeah they got a deal.

Yeah, make you feel it.

Oh, by Tiffany Diamond for one hundred thousand or thirty five thousand when it's worth ten thousand, and you think you got it.

You're like, oh, we'll give you this Daytona.

Right, they have everything in the back.

They just don't want to give it to you.

It's all there, it's all there.

Happened to me more than once.

Now I'm banned from all the ads.

Because of social media before it happened more than once.

You're banned from everywhere I go and they google you get out like like Mayor's and turn on band.

That's like like certain casino if you're like the casino because they're like a great deal.

So you're you're basically blacklisted from these places.

Wow, I don't care.

Now what about other other than role Like what's it like?

Cardio is a Cardier?

Is not good?

Autom Marpiger, protect Philly Richard Mill.

Now if you go into those stores, same thing.

Nothing.

Everybody did, the same thing.

Everybody did.

They got together and they said they're gonna build them monopoly, Like nobody can have it unless they build a profile.

And that's what makes you want something more.

Bro Imagine the girl tells you no, Yeah, what do you mean you tell me no?

Now you're on the chase.

We're hunters, we're men, we hunt.

You want to know why I'm gonna get Why?

Why not me?

Why him?

That's why Rolet's doing?

How come he can get it all because he just spent three hundred thousand on jewelry.

I want to do it too.

So it's such a psychological game.

Wow.

Unfortunately, eighty percent of the world are suckers.

They do it.

They do it.

Wow, I never even thought I can't believe that, And other people followed suit the same thing.

Yeah, you want to burke in for seven for fifty thirteen thousand retail go by blankets and pills.

Are you gonna wipe your ass with you gotta just pay twenty five thousand.

I'm gonna go through the whole kissing ass.

Yeah, go buy this, go by this by spoons, buy forks by this, you spent one hundred, you spend thirty thousand.

Oh, now you get a birket for thirteen.

What are you gonna do all the shit you bought?

You're gonna eat from those her mess poons, No, because there are mess So he's gonna all just waste the money just sitting there.

Yeah.

Wow, I never that's amazing.

Yeah yeah, bro, dude.

My whole goal what I do is educate ils educated to teach somebody.

I always tell people I'm gonna go to a go They'll bang your harder than me because you'll get a detoy.

Now, but you're gonna spend one hundred ground.

Shit, you're like one of the first sales people or whatever that I've seen or talked to, and when the things that I have watched on social media where you almost are like you're like teaching as you're as you're doing business, you're teaching your consumer.

Does that make sense?

Ye?

That's what I want to do.

Change the game.

I've never seen that before, I know, because the whole point is what they teach is when we start is make as much money as.

You can get what you can't take.

Yeah, yeah, mine does not take.

I want to give, and when you give, then you'll get back.

See.

That's that's the difference.

That's how I know.

I'm a living proof.

That's the difference.

We went from nothing two and a half years ago once me and Josh started social media.

Now we have a retail store.

We're trying to open everywhere, and we're still making money.

We're not We're not hoss.

You know, of course, we're not putting tenth f You know, my dad told me when I started videos, to listen to my son.

You put ten fingers in your mouth.

You get in a choke, try to fit ten figures in your mouth.

You can't.

Five is enough?

Five will fit?

Put five?

And that's it.

Comis by us.

They want to put ten and ten the problems.

They want to make you bleed.

The coustomer's gonna bleed today.

He's never coming back to you tomorrow.

I don't care who it is.

Dude, that's like the greatest.

We gotta I gotta quote that.

That's fucking brilliant.

Well, the ten fingers and you know that what you just said.

If they bleed today, they're not coming back tomorrow.

That's I'm coming back.

I promised you.

Because how many celebrities I spoke to since social media starting.

They told me I'm sick and tired of getting banged out by these because of who I am.

I love what you do with They won't follow you because they don't.

It's fine, But as long as they wash they see what you do.

They tell me all the time I go to basketball games for that reason.

I say, my market, my our brand.

That's how I'm at Pete.

That's how I met a lot of these people.

They tell me, I love what you do and thank you for educating and because we're sick and tired of getting not even forget us.

Every customer.

Yeah, today a lady asked me, I want to buy a code from my husband on instat to Instagram and I told her, loll please don't buy that watch.

She's like, my husband wants it.

No problem?

First, I see no, I explained to her, why not.

If you still want to, I'll sell it to you, of course, and tomorrow you come back and you're gonna lose money.

At least I did the right thing and I totally not to buy it, so you can't tell me you screwed.

Well.

I did my part, you did your part.

I told you not to do it.

But then some people are just so they have to do.

Have rappers coming in.

I don't care.

I want that buzz down shit.

I want to shine in the club and I don't care what I lose.

Okay, no problem.

At least I did my due diligence and I told you, educated you and you do it all you want.

But a doctor he tells you have this one.

This you want to go treat yourself for now, that's your problem, right, same thing?

Yeah, wow, man, this is so cool.

This is fascinating shit.

All right, So now let's get.

Into the best.

I want to talk about the best.

Okay, so.

In your opinion, since you've been doing this okay when when, so I'll give I'll break it down like this, I'll do an example like this.

So I'm into I'm really big into sneakers, right, I love sneakers.

So I see all these like uh sneaker cons and all these different things with people hand in their Jordan's.

I have a lot of George.

I'm representing my Knicks here today.

I'm a diehard Necks fan.

Although it broke my fucking broke my heart.

They they always do.

I told my son from the beginning, I said, son, yeah, you dad's a Nick fan.

You're gonna be a Nick fan.

But I remember, they're gonna break our hearts.

They're gonna it's like they're gonna You're gonna be set climax of their gun.

You said something before we started here when when I first met you and you were like, you know, my son gets crazy.

And I was telling you, like I was in the city, I was performing, I was on stage, but they had it.

They have the Nick game in the green room, so like in between sets, I'm like watching the.

Game and my wife goes, your son can't do this anymore.

It was it was last year we were in the playoffs against the seventy six ers and we're winning by twenty I know we're winning by uh.

I think we were winning by six or seven points with twenty seconds stuff.

We lost and he just screamed my sons mother.

And by the way, he's fifteen at the time, motherfuck and go.

And he's like, he's a quiet, great athlete, great student, nice kid, respectful to teach us everything.

But something I can't afford but I didn't buy it is a fifty nine sixty eight A actually both, I mean actually sixty eight A.

Like a lot of people have one, like Pete and Drake.

They where it's like the orange drap Aquard.

Now that's just somebody that just that's just somebody who has money to just like.

I sold one back then.

Wow.

I don't not spend much, but there's not a big demand.

But that's not a big demand, right R.

It's people with real money.

But that's a watch you put in a safe and never look at it again.

You're not wearing that watch out.

No, you're not going out.

With that Arab dude board.

They got the Arab money.

They got money, Like I wouldn't even fuck with that if I'd have that thing in a fun fine, I'm mature so well, like you said, that's unassuming, No, but I didn't think that.

I was like oh you know it's a casual, nice casual, go to the gym.

Yeah.

So Richidmill became the top.

Like so watch is a status right, Okay, the status game.

Yeah, that's better than the other.

So Richard Mill is on the top, and then the protect are competing Richard Mill.

More of the cow will protect more of the wolf Street button up CEOs.

Okay, you have Autumn mar So it's I think it's our em patic automor than rolls.

Okay, so Rolex is dropping down a little bit.

It's affordable.

It's a people yes, Okay, I'd rather wear a steelyped than the gold rollings really for status, for status, I'd rather wear gold roll steeal ap th any gold rollers.

That's to me.

Yeah, it might be wrong, that's I'm giving you again.

It's my personal opinion.

Yeah.

Now, now my personal my personal thing is I always just go with look.

I don't care about status, right, that's it.

Sneakers is more bold for me.

Sneakers is both Sneakers is look.

But also there's something about being in the in the game of sneakers and having nice Jordan's.

And I've developed a thing with my fans where when I'm on stage and they announce me, they look at me and then they look down there and then people will go, hey, man, I was in the front.

I thought it was Jordan white cements because that's.

My I love.

I love that.

But a watch to me, I like it to go with the now fit.

I like it to look good.

I like a gold, sleek look.

Sometimes I do love the I do love the I don't know the name of it, so forgive me, but the the.

Gold, the gold, all gold Rolex, but with the white face.

I mean they make D Daytona's.

Yeah, maybe it was a So I want to get into that day day Daytonas.

It depends what you like.

That's fine.

Bough.

Let me ask you this question because you said the out of all of those levels, the rolex is probably the most affordable for the average for people that want to have a nice watch.

Uh, what are what are the best rolexes that aren't sport that's not a sport just like a really like a timeless classic piece that's always ajos?

What is it?

Forty one millimeter Dajos.

Okay, like everybody has one first beginner wash that you get as a gift for your bar mins for for this to get a da Jos, and it's timeless, like your first car.

Okay, on the Toyota people have on full street today, people driving BMWs that at eighteen of them.

So so I grew up.

My first go was a Nissan Ultimate.

I felt like I was on top of the world, driving old ass like you know, yeah, yeah, there was two thousand and one Ultimate.

I thought I was the ship.

I don't want the big ass you know that one?

Yeah, no, of course, Wait what year was it?

Two thousand and one?

I definitely remember.

I actually I actually was working in Queens at the time, and I know somebody that had that exact that exact car.

Yeah, Queen, That's where I was born, in Raisedment.

Really what part I lived there in Queens?

I live in Fresh Meadows.

Okay, I lived in I lived in Rego Park for a while.

When I was so talk about sales, before I got into before I got into stand up.

Uh, it was around two thousand, two thousand and one when I was like really starting to I dropped out of college.

To do it because people are like, man, you're funny.

You gotta do this, and uh, you know what my job was.

I went door knocking in Queens and I sold phone cable internet for a company called RCNER.

You did you did you ever get somebody knock on your door?

We have it to that at home.

My dad was religious, was only.

Okay, but do you remember the RCN so so they were like, hey, this is new, this this is like early two thousands.

Did we got fiber op on the ground.

I'm a fucking twenty one year old kid.

I dropped out of college to do stand up at night and I go five or out and they were like, you gotta knock.

You're gonna consolidate their phone cable internet.

It's you got to tell me.

You gotta tell them it's fifty times faster.

They're gonna get more cable channels.

The phone bill's gonna go down.

And I was in Fresh Meadows, I was in Rego Park, I was in Corona.

I was in all these places.

I would knocked doors at dinner.

I would knocked doors at dinner time, and I would go, hey.

Of it, how many notes did you get?

Dude?

It was worth feeling.

But I learned something.

I learned something, and I know that you're going to be able to appreciate this man.

And I love talking to a salesperson like you who came from the street and came from nothing and did what you do.

Is uh I I learned that.

Like I was young, I was twenty twenty years old and I made fifty at twenty one.

I made fifty one thousand dollars after dropping out of college knocking doors.

So I'm like, all right, this is something's bunny back, dude, dude, fifty something thousand dollars for a twenty year old kid in Queens in twenty five years ago.

I was making a living and then at night I would go I would go home, I would get you, and I would go to New York City and I would hustle and try to get on stage and tell jokes.

But it was not only knows.

It was how they said no, the fuck out of here.

And then I would hear like one of my partners or somebody I would be in the field to be down there.

Yo, I got threatened.

This guy chased me off his thing.

The fuck out you if you knock on my dormal I'm gonna fuck you up.

And I'm like, and I'm like a twenty one year old.

Kid, I'm like a twenty one old care It's just I'm gonna save you money on your phone bill and.

Like get the fuck out, you know, thinking it's a scam.

But what I did learn is I was about to be fired because my numbers were down.

And then I locked in when I.

Was about to be fired because I realized if I was about to be fired, then my way trying to get on stage would change and all that stuff, I'd have to go live back up state with my mom and do.

So I locked in and I became a supervisor.

I just locked in and I said, I said, every time I want to go home at night, I'm gonna knock ten more doors when everybody goes home, I'm an knocked ten more doors, and I'm gonna get it.

And I'm going to figure out a way to make these people.

And what I would do is I would say, hey, if I told you, if I just all I'm asking, you could tell me no.

This is this is when I started to figure it out and I locked in.

I go, you could tell me no, but I just want to ask you one question before you slam the door on me and before you tell me, so you get do you hook it like that?

If I can tell you that I one hundred percent can save you fifty five to seventy five dollars on your bills one hundred percent, would you do it?

If I could show you that?

And then they would just.

Go and I go, I will save you fifty five to seventy five dollars between your cable phone internet if you if you and I'm a twenty one year old fucking kid, twenty two, and they would go, You're gonna save me seventy dollars a month?

On my phone, I said, I am, I said, you got HBO?

What if I give you five hbos and you still save?

To fit this and do it?

I found a rhythm and once I found that rhythm, I was gone.

And then I started making money.

And then of course, when my comedy career went to where I needed it to go, then of.

Course, but it will.

I've been taking fired and they wanted to fire me.

They I think I told the story before, but I'll tell you because you appreciate it.

So getting a unit was one thing, right, So phone line would be one unit, cable one unit, and Internet one unit.

If you sold all three, it was a gold package.

It was three units.

So they go, they go, you gotta you're gonna be fired if you don't get forty one units this week.

They gave me a number.

It's impossible getting forty one.

Almost impossible.

There's no way I'm gonna get forty one.

But I worked my ass off and I ended up getting twenty six.

And nobody got twenty six that week, so they go, we'll keep you for another week.

And then I kept going, and then once I found the rhythm, then I became a supervisor.

I was twenty three years old and I had fifty year old men under me, and I'm like, I can't fucking believe it.

But I just I just was relentless, and I wouldn't stop, you know what I mean.

So when I see, like when you say, like you were twenty two years old or whatever in the streets and all of a sudden, you flipped your first you flipped your first watch, and you were like, and it was the same thing on stage, like when I got on stage and I started to get my first laughs and people and then big comedians would go, hey, man.

I keep doing this.

Man, you're funny and like it was my dream.

Then it's like you get it's the same thing with you, right, you do once you started flipping those watches and people started but you did something different too, You start to educate it.

Your style is different.

Yeah, your style is different, because I've been you can be the same.

You can't be as funny.

You can't tell the same jokes as this guy before you, right after you.

Right, if you got, you gotta be you, gotta be you, and it's got to be like my jokes have to be about my family, my perspective, my humor.

But I've been on forty seventh Street and I've been on all those places where you work, and you know what, I gotta be honest with you, and I think the reason why you're successful.

And I'm not saying this because you're here, bro, because you know I've spoke to people about you, but I watch what you do.

You're different and the reason why you're successful is you're different.

And the reason why you're going to go through the roof is because you're different, because you do the education thing and you tell people and listen, would I would be amazed.

If I went into a place, if my wife would be like, what Like if I went into a place and I was like, yeah, I went to see Mosha today that I went to the watch king and I told him that I wanted to and he said, no, you know what, go home and think about it before you spend that money on this watch.

She would be like, all right, well, let's go back to him, because everybody else is going to go give me the whatever, I'm just making up a number, Give me the third, give me the fourteen thousand.

I want the fourteen thousand.

And you're going, nah, you know what I want it.

I don't want it.

That doesn't make sense.

Go home and think about it.

Now.

I want to deal with you.

T come back.

That's crazy, that's crazy.

Will come back?

Two O just fine.

That means they weren't ready.

But if somebody's ready to add a tum will come back.

So sex Face success rate is there.

People just want to be hurt.

That's all Custom wants to be heard.

He wants to feel like the buying.

They're not buying their product, they're buying you.

They're buying your trust.

They trust you.

Yeah, you know, and once they trust you, they fall in love with you.

How many.

Athletes like what's the there's athletes that you deal with or people that love, you know, rappers, athletes people like that that love jewelry that you know.

Uh So I talked about it as my and my in one of my in my stand up hour that I did for Netflix, where my dad you know, my dad is like Sicilian.

Over the top, over the top.

Jewelry is my father's life.

My father will talk to you.

If you and my father sat down, you would talk watches and diamonds for fucking nineteen out.

He can't, you know, he's got the he's got the you know, the hairy chest.

He's got the hairy chest with the big chains.

And he goes, you know, I don't go for this wreck.

I said it, and he goes, I don't go for this rap shit.

You know.

But I'll tell you what.

He goes those rappers, he goes they know their jewelry.

He goes those are he goes they they because he would he would.

My father would like watch rap videos for the to see the thing.

But how many of them will rappers, athletes, whatever, will tell their friends?

They all tell their friends, right, Yeah, and they come to you.

I mean, if they could they come, Some don't, some do.

It's up to them.

I won't push them to come.

I have celebrities will follow me my own d m A.

You want to come to my store?

Right?

If he wants, they'll come to me.

He'll ask me.

You know, I make a comment on one of his polls, maybe a last ye or whatever.

But I'm not.

I don't push.

People don't like to be pushed.

You don't want to go.

You want it, how much you want to try it, you want to buy you and oh yeah, I actually you know it's funny you said that much because I hate that.

I hate when I go into a store, especially and I'll go into a sneaker store and like I'll go into one of the places and he goes, hey, man, we got to these new joys, like, oh man, thanks, and I said, I'm just looking well, no, you know these, And.

I'm like, you're ruining this.

You're ruining my time.

If I want something, I'll tell you you're ruining my time.

Here.

Becaus walks and said, what are you looking for?

I'm not sure, all right, take your time looking for you me, I'm here or my guys will take care of you.

If a guy cousin I want to see this watch, I'll show what to him.

I'll explain to him or educate him and tell him what it's about.

And I'll do this also with the customer like you.

It's like, oh, I'm gonna shop.

I said, no, you should shop a run and anywhere you find that cheaper, I'll give you a thousand dollars over their price.

Wow, that's how comes from.

They can't beat my price.

So I always make him go hunt.

Then he'll come back.

Yeah, yeah, and you know he's coming back, right yeah.

And if he comes back, I won't say, oh, now that you left, so buy us unfort thinking, oh you love to come back.

The price is higher now.

Because they get buttered, I say, my offer is the same for ten years.

I mean, as long as the market is stable, that's the same offers.

It's such a it's such a shitty sales tactic to go, hey, man, if you leave, but when you come back, it's going to be more.

I always hated that too.

When they go, you know what they do, They always go, I can't guarantee.

I can't guarantee you.

I can't guarantee when you.

Come back because things change that I would always never I would never go back to those exactly.

Yeah.

I had a couple, two couples come from Detroit and they came just to talk.

They didn't want to buy nothing.

I don't care.

People come social media every day and I don't force something like we have to buy No, come see how I come, See where you're from, Tell you what you do, tell me why you love what, why you watch us?

And blah blah blah.

They can't.

They came to like you know, we were we were walking up and down the street looking for you, and people were forcing us to buy stuff and I don't want to buy nothing.

They were buying two bricks to necklaces and a bunch of jewelry for me just uninforced them.

Oh we like this how much?

Oh it's not like you know, it's fine, know how much.

Let's make a flip and I'm made experience out of it.

You know what?

Wait, what do you mean flip?

We flipped a coin?

You?

Oh so you because they do that in a secret thing, you'll do that.

We invented on forty seven Street, bro, Is that right?

Yeah, we invented it.

Four years ago, three years ago and forty sevensry.

Now everybody copies what we do.

Eait a minute, dude, now the fucking now now.

All the sneaker guys.

Dude, this is nuts because so my stupid little thing at night to wind me down is I watched the videos of like sneaker con so we did the guy goes, the guy goes, all right, I'll give you a.

Four hundred seven hundred flip.

You know that we started that, so I believe it was being Moses.

We started friend of mine, uh huh.

I would be upstairs and he would like, yo, flip, let's flip a coin for your price, smart present.

And then it became a hit and I started doing on social media.

He started doing it, and everybody does it.

But forty seven Street is the is the founder of the coin flips.

I think the craziest one I saw in sneaker World, I think he goes.

I think it was zero two thousand flip.

I lost one hundred thousand dollars on the flip what Yeah?

David Dobrick YouTuber David do Brick, Yeah, I watched the video.

What one hundred k.

He called me.

He's like, listen, I'm coming in.

Bro was in the air.

How long did that flip take?

Oh?

I can't believe you start.

You started that.

That's a huge thing.

I see it that in real estate.

I see it in sneaker con, sneakers all these events.

I'm not a sneaker guy, but I see them.

Put my pee page.

But we and I'll debate anybody about this sneaker con real estate.

We invented forty sevens.

You invented the coin flipping.

That's amazing.

Wa Like what year would you say?

Like twenty twenty one?

Twenty twenty one is because I haven't seen it before.

Then yeah.

I remember me and Moses Caroll with that idea.

He was in my store shopping.

Then he flipped a coin.

I would tell m let's flip you like, He's like, let's flip because used to be gambling.

I don't gamble.

I have a whole that's the whole different story.

But it's exciting and it also I lost one hundred k.

I lost big.

What's the other big ones?

I lost?

Josh?

I lost seven in a row a month ago.

Seven flips in a row.

Oh my, five thousand each flip.

I bought seven watches and I lost the first one.

I won the next seven watchers I lost.

That was the worst streak ever.

It was like forty something thousand totals.

It's weird you say that because I just saw a guy online he lost eight in a row to the same guy.

And guy he sees the same guy call and and the guy sitting down who runs the sneaker team.

He goes, but I gotta beat you is something.

I gotta be a winner.

Let's just let's just do something.

And they did it.

He still lost.

He lost a game.

I walked out of Winter because I got the merchandise.

Yeah, yeah, bothered me because of the cult streak, and I was texting, I'm like, Pete, Bro, I'm fucked Bro.

I can't stop losing.

So you also, do you like the flip because it's a little destiny too.

It's a little bit of like a I like to flip because it makes it interesting.

Yeah, makes it.

It's just not boring.

So David Dorberg does We decided that if you want to to buy the watch for one fifty and we won't do the flip.

My partner's like, nah, do it for the content?

Who gives the fuck?

Was another fifty thousands?

Yeah, if we lose the viral and we lost, Yeah, that's That's the other thing that I wanted to talk to you about.

And this is something that Josh does for you, and it's it's I'm gonna say this in my business, it's in your business.

It's probably more more necessary.

I think I don't like that with social media, how it because comedy, you know, was always when I came up, My dream was it was just to be be funny, right, be funny and be the best at what you do.

Now you could have somebody up there doing some bullshit.

But if it goes IRA or something like that.

But in your business it's different too, because it's sales and it's you know, it's personality hits.

But when did the what what you know, by the way Josh is sitting off camera, Josh's dear friends with Mocha and also his uh you know, social media guy.

But when did that change for you guys?

Behind?

Yeah?

When when did like when did you realize like, oh, this is going from just in store doing this making money to oh shit, like was it like during pandemic?

Before pandemic, I was I'm the I'm the last guy who started doing tiktoks on social media.

Okay, because I'm older, I didn't know what that was.

Yeah, and then I saw the people started recognizing me from other people social media.

I'm like, you know what, let me try it.

If it hits, it hits, it doesn't hit, I still do yeah, I still do business up there.

Ray.

So I called Josh because I know Josh's parents.

He was nineteen at the time.

I'm like, bro, yeah, I know you know how to because what he would record he would do content for people washing my cars, and he would do content for them like charge them.

That's what he does.

That's his specialty.

Like, what do you think he's like, all right, he came one day.

We're open a TikTok where we have like two followers.

We mean, first Zado hit ten K.

I was I'm camera shy, but I was shaking.

Yeah, I couldn't.

I was so nervous.

Now it's like natural, like no, I can't rehearse, right, I gotta be wrang.

This is me worse you did to come with the questions.

Just someone asks you this what I started startering.

I like to be right.

I like to act myself sometimes like stupid something that don't but people resonate to me because I'm stupid.

Sometimes I'm smart, funny whatever.

Yeah, first of you did ten cats said Josh want to something, come again tomorrow.

He's supposed to come once a week.

He came again.

No, first of all was twice a week.

Right, then he came.

And then when it hit we had one via video go via like a million views.

I'm like, you know, dude, we're golden.

Yeah it's done.

Boom.

Yeah, people started coming.

Oh, let me see you, let me see.

We had a little little store like this in the back in the booth.

We're paying two thousand.

Now we have got our own private store or whatever.

So the social media just maybe pay my whole business.

Yeah, so instead of selling deal, instead of selling B to B, right business the business, I'll sell the same watch to the customer, Like I'll sell to the dealer.

I'll sell a dealer who has to make money selling to you or watch for fourteen thousand, I'd rather sell it to you.

He took me under his wing.

He helped me help and for open for Bill Burgh, Madison Square Guard, all these different things.

So when I see young comics that open for me, I never want to be preachy, but I want to tell them.

I want to tell them like, hey, make sure you don't get taken advantage, because this is how you could be taken advantage of.

Make sure you show up on time and make sure you don't show up to your gigs drunk, and make sure you treat the staff the lowest part staff, the lowest of the staff.

If you're in a comedy club and you walk through the kitchen and the dishwashers there, and the dishwasher smiles at you, you don't walk past him because there's a fucking dishwasher.

You go, hey, man, thanks, you know, hope you guys had a great weekend.

But you're gonna get it.

But what will happen if, like, will you?

I know it's cutthroat, so you'll have like a competitor of yours.

Will a competitor of yours fuck you out of a deal, even for like five hundred bucks, just because I don't want you to get it?

Yeah, they can't do and they try, but they can't love They can't.

I love it, But that that fucking answer and confidence with Do you see what he goes if they can't, it was such a secret.

I still can't pay attention, but not everybody.

I don't.

I can't pay attention.

Yeah, but you, thank god, you got lucky.

Some kids don't have that opportunity.

They're not driven like you were.

So what they do is I try to give them an opportunity to succeed.

And don't go to the streets and make trouble.

Don't go out robbing people or something for money.

Come to forty seventh Street.

I'll teach you, I'll treat you, I'll teach you a trade.

But you need to go to college for it.

That's what the kids come.

I turn them down.

I do it once a week.

Now, wow, they come every day for squid games.

Well yeah, that's you know, it's true what he says.

Some people aren't cut out for it.

No.

I remember listening to the teacher was telling a story about how his wisdom to professor of college is talking about his fucking wisdom team, and I remember going like, why the fuckm I'm paying for this and I don't need to hear I should be telling a story.

I'm fucking done this this.

First of all, it's not even funny.

He's not good at telling the story.

And I was like, I'm trying to be a comedian anyway, I'm wasting my parents mind.

I'm getting the fuck out of here.

And I just you know, because it's it's not meant for some people.

But you had to I believe this.

You had to do what you do.

There's nothing that you in my opinion, you're a twenty two.

Year old, do you really?

I love what I do.

But I was always wondering to be like, so you would give this all?

You would give nothing nothing, So if you.

Could be a surgeon tomorrow.

You wouldn't do it.

No, this is it, This is it.

It is my calling.

Yes, it's the same I'm calling.

It took me a long time.

I felt we've been through helling back, but I found my calling.

Bro, I would I said, I want to one day, I want to be just for one day, right, just for one day, and that's it, just for one day.

Always just always gonna be curious and you always gonna always think about it.

Yeah, you know, because that's what I wanted as a kills my dream.

I think you just touched on something really true and a special thing is that, like when you want something and you.

Go for it.

Like somebody said, what would you do if your kids wanted to do stand up comedy?

And I said they would have to do what I did, and I don't want them to do it.

Oh.

My mom lived upstate by Poughkeepsie, and I remember getting in a little Toyota Troussell.

The only reason, the only reason why I was able to get to the Toyota tor Cell because I was at Mohegan's son and I hit a fucking three card poker for two grand.

So I bought a toylet to cell so I could deliver pizzas.

It's just a true story.

Yeah, I'll tell you what I did.

I it was the first time.

It was the first time that three card poker became a game in casinos.

You know, three card poker, right, it was, it was around the first It was early.

It was like a ninety eight, ninety nine that game got it started.

That games only existed for you know, twenty five, twenty six years.

So my buddy and I were am his son, and we kept hitting a flush, which pays six to one.

We kept hitting it, but I was bent like a bitch.

I'm like cause I'm like, you know, I'm delivering pizzas.

I'm young.

So he goes, man, we gotta go we keep hitting a flush, we gotta go higher.

So I go, all right, man, all I could do is fifty.

So I put fifty down and I look at the cards and I got Queen.

I got yeah, I got Queen King Ace of Diamonds, And I just look at him and I go, I go, buddy, I go like it didn't register first, I go, dude, I think I got a royal flo you know, And He's like, really really, all of a sudden, oh, everybody at the table collapse.

They give me the black chips, they give me two thousand.

So what I did was I gave the kid who was my friend sitting next to me a hundred just for sitting next to me.

And I gave the kid who drove a hundred.

And then I took a hundred to go to roulette and I lost that.

So I ended up leaving with the seventeen or whatever.

I put it in my pocket and my friend goes, how can you leave now?

He goes, that's what Right when I would be taking my I said, no, no, no, I need a car.

So I need a car.

Fuck that.

I got a toy let your cells delivering pizzas.

But I was able to drive from upstate to go to New York City.

But the only rooms that would put me on when I started pete tell you this and this is was would be the urban rooms, the black rooms.

So they would go, okay, you take your funny, you're get in five minutes.

You're not getting paid two hundred and fifty.

You know, urban black audience members.

If you're not funny, you're gonna get booed.

So I would drive up there.

I remember parking my car in Harlem, nervous as shit, scared ship, but I had to do it.

I had to do it.

And I went on.

Stage like yo, man's fuck just white boys and times funny for you know, and all of a sudden, so I kept doing it.

But I think of I don't want my kids to do it unless you love it like that.

I don't want them to go through the driving, the no money, the ansio stuff.

But it's like sometimes like you get your calling, you get your calling.

I mean, you're right.

I don't want my kids to go through it too, but sometimes they need to.

Like my son's gonna come in the summertime, he's thirteen, He's gonna work for me.

Is he does?

He got that?

Well you can oh, I didn't have it.

Also, forty seven Street changed me.

I came in there as shy, twenty two year old kid.

It changed you, huh, it became crazy.

I mean I was quiet, I was shy, I was to myself.

I was reserved, still shy.

Yeah, yeah, you seem like you got that.

Like when you walked in and I saw you, I was like instantly, and that's why because but uh, our mutual friend.

Pete that he's he goes, he goes, he goes, You'll love this fuck.

He goes, he goes, this guy, you're gonna you know, yeah, shout out of Pete Davidson, uh this.

But he was like, uh yeah, he was like, oh, you're gonna You're gonna love this guy.

So before we get out of here, let me just ask you this.

I want to ask you two questions before we.

Get out of here.

What's the best advice you would give to somebody that wants to go and buy a nice watch maybe, and and what's the best advice you could give them to not make mistakes?

Don't as many questions you want, don't be scared, ask ask, ask, ask, ask till you're.

Comfortable, and don't buy first time out.

You could if you comfortably know what you're buying right Always, you buy, you buy the the you buy the seller.

You don't buy the product.

I say, correctly, I'm gonna educate it.

So you buy the guy who's selling you the watch.

Basically, yeah, you don't buy the watch itself.

You buy from somebody you trust, so tomorrow something goes wrong, he's always gonna be there for you, okay.

And what would you say to somebody last question.

And I know you don't probably deal with these people a lot, but I have to ask this question because my I have people that aren't too watches.

Somebody's got fifteen hundred, two thousand dollars and they want to buy a nice watch.

But that's all they could afford.

You buy this other brands, Omega, Swatch, tag Lings, Cardier's Panoraise Eu blows will Sell bro Sell.

I got to tell you something.

Can I tell you one of my favorite watches?

I swear to god, one of my favorite watches I got in Berlin, Germany.

It's a Swatch.

Yeah, who curious?

They never died.

They never fancy watches die.

But that's the point.

It's like an ip ye.

Yeah, but charge the phone.

But it's like a you know, fucking range Rover.

There's always in the shop.

Somebody told me the best phone ever, the first The first Nokia is bad.

We lasted for three weeks.

Let's just plase snake up.

Yeah, yeah, the big phone is nothing today.

The iPhone is so fragile you sneeze and brace.

I gotta buy a new one.

Yes, what it is?

Why is the expensive car always going to shop?

You know?

He's a car guy.

You know a car doesn't t And I gotta say this because I got a Flex because it's my favorite car.

I've did research on all the cars.

I think I have the best car.

I think I have the most reliable car is a Lexus Bro.

They don't die.

Oh it's his favorite car.

Josh knows.

I'm gonna tell you.

Guess how many problems?

Zero?

My wife, she's got the Lexus SUV zero.

We've had Lexus for over ten years.

When I did my research, I'm Mercedes.

I'm BMW on everything.

If you want some sport and comfort and luxury and reliability, Lexus Bro.

And I'm not just saying that because I got it affordable, but a beautiful Joe Rogan was told.

Rogan was talking about her other thing and he goes, listen, he goes, I had three of them.

They never fucking die, They just they just you know.

But then you've then somebody was like, hey, I got a three hundred thousand dollars fucking audio and guess what the thing is in the shop?

Constantly range over the thing is in the shop Lexus.

Bro Right, I'm telling you you had.

A Lexus before, and you got to be going back to Lexus.

But why don't people follow suit?

What do they do?

It's it's why certain things are better.

There's no illusion.

Lex does not have the illusion.

We want the illusion.

People buy illusion, people buy social media.

Think social media is real.

I think this sees fake.

Yeah, people on the private planes, fancy cars and this ship, and that's what they want.

That's their role model.

And they understand there's all the front you know, you know the emptiness, right, yeah, you know that that TikTok.

You know that they have a place where you could sit, you could sit in what looks like a private jet, but but it's on the ground.

So these people what they're doing is they're going into like a set like we're sitting on the podcast, but it's it's a tube like a private jet and they're sitting on there going like this, eating and it's and they're not even I've never been a private took.

No, but they're in a studio.

So so that's that's like the they want to show.

Hey, but it's like you ain't.

Fucking if you got money.

No, people have, people have the real money.

Somebody who's on a private jet isn't pointing at their watch on a private jet.

With a glasses.

His name was Ed Clay.

I love that guy.

He has a private jet.

Whatever never wants posted on social media.

Flashy yeah yeah, jewelry, flashy as fuck, but that's what we gotta wear.

What you sell, you gotta believe in what you sell.
