Many times, yes.
1:26
Okay.
1:27
So you know, and your listeners would know that during that time, like everything, time stood still.
1:34
And I just knew things deeply on the inside.
1:38
And I knew three things.
1:40
I knew that I would be speaking on stages around the world.
1:46
which has happened.

So what are your thoughts on that? And do you believe in investing on the big players like NVIDIA? Or do you find with your company like the smaller, high potential, low volume, high growth companies? What's your thoughts on that? There you
3:22
So how is this different from just having somebody handle my money?
3:28
It's a great question.
3:29
So a little backstory on me.
3:30
I was in the financial services business in the '90s.
3:34
I worked for Merrill Lynch and Citigroup, two of the largest firms.
3:37
And what I noticed was, being an insider, is that the firms are really geared toward making money off their clients, not for their clients.
3:48
And, like, we never had a client who we made become a millionaire.
6:16
Like, what keeps me from doing that? Because I'm hearing Dave Ramsey tell me, "Just pick these four mutual funds, stay in that forever, make your 8% just above inflation." You know, [laughs] how do I avoid going to zero if I'm picking my own stuff?
4:24
what? Are you
4:24
crazy? I do it.
4:26
I do one thing and I do it well, right? And, or maybe two things, but you're not all over the board.
4:32
And that's how people invest.
4:35
They invest in these product package products called mutual funds.
4:38
Everyone's got them and they're in, 150 to 200 different stocks and they constantly only give like average returns.
4:48
And when you're talking about having real financial freedom, you've got to be able to achieve a much greater rate of return.

they get all your knowledge because it's all somehow in the system right and then well i wanted this and you ask them these questions you know well we suggest this and we suggest that oh great boom you know it's almost like they've hired your brain but also into in i don't know if you've got using ai but also you know like that so i don't know it's like what have you learned about that what has that taught you or what's that what have you discovered from doing that process i suppose
25:51
Well,
25:52
it's a great question.
25:55
The precious metals have been suppressed for 45 years, the prices.
26:01
And if you think about that, I always thought about that price suppression as like holding a beach ball underwater.
26:08
They're holding it down, holding it down, eventually it's just gonna shoot right up.
26:12
And we're just getting started with the precious metals rally.
26:15
When you compare the metals, especially silver and gold, to the US dollar, there's never been a time in history when the fiat currency hasn't collapsed or gone away.
30:11
And is there any, you know, minimum size of portfolio or maximum size of portfolio this will work for? Or please correct and let us know who this really is for.
