that it's always about what that person needs. 00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:11.600 And I think the the difficulty here, and I won't say difficulty, I think the the reality is how does it play out in reality? 00:09:11.759 --> 00:09:30.960 You know, it social media can make you think that okay, if I meet this person at a concert or somehow end up with them, you know, in a sexual situation, that that's gonna parlate into me becoming a wife. 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:36.080 And then that's gonna parlate into this incredible lifestyle where I can travel the world, have as many. 00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:38.080 And that's what I was gonna say. 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:49.120 So that access that we talk about, that access, yeah, okay, I want money because we know with money there there's a freedom that comes with having money. 00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:55.600 Also, that access gives-I don't know if you are really free because US well-guess what it represents, though. 00:09:55.759 --> 00:09:57.840 It represents money represents freedom. 00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.559 Running money represents experiences. 00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:19.039 So if I'm a person that I'm just trying to get to this person because I feel like I disagree because it's not your money, so you ain't never free, you a slave to what that person with the money thinks about you and the position and hit that you have in his or her life. 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:28.000 If I'm just having a good time and I just want to be back there with the person for a moment, if it's even just for one night, I feel like I'm around money. 00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:31.200 So even though it may not be mine, I feel like it's mine. 00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.360 And I'm I I feel freedom. 00:10:33.519 --> 00:10:35.279 I feel because think about it. 00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:46.879 When you're in the room with a bunch of celebrities, you're taking pictures with them, you're smiling, you laughing, you grinning, you're having a good time, it makes you feel like I'm a part of their world. 00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:49.039 I'm a part of what they experience. 00:10:49.200 --> 00:11:00.159 I'm a part of because if I'm just a concert goer and I'm usually just, you know, hit seeing them perform and then I leave, I don't get a chance to experience what happens behind the scenes. 00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:04.320 So now I'm behind the scene and I'm like, oh, this is what it feels like. 00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:07.279 Oh, this is what they do, you know, afterwards. 00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:08.559 This is their life. 00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:10.480 This is all the people that are around them. 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:14.320 So I feel the money, I feel the freedom, I feel the fame. 00:11:14.480 --> 00:11:22.240 And we know some of that wanting to have access, it's the it's the money, it's the fame, it's the power. 00:11:22.559 --> 00:11:26.639 That's what the the person is is trying to get to. 00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:33.120 Yeah, regardless if it's yours or not, that's what you feel in in that moment. 00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:37.039 Yeah, and I guess for people it's it's an intoxicating feeling. 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:42.399 And it's I was able to have access to think about it a little bit. 00:11:42.559 --> 00:11:44.080 Why why would you want to be back there? 00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:50.080 Because if you around, if you have access to somebody that's powerful, now you feel powerful. 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.399 If you're around somebody who got money, now you feel like you got money. 00:11:54.559 --> 00:11:57.840 So there's a reason why people chase it. 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:15.279 There's a reason why people line up and wait patiently to gain the access because it's all about the feeling, and it's all about I was just in a room with thousands and thousands of people, but now I'm the special one. 00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:20.559 I'm the one that has been chosen to be here for that night. 00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:28.720 Hey, if only in that city for only for only one night, and then also, you know what comes with that?

00:22:56.240 --> 00:22:56.720 I don't know. 00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:58.000 I guess I was just the person. 00:22:58.079 --> 00:23:12.240 I and I remember saying this in college as a 17, 18, 19 year old, and I said, I want to be the person who is invited to the party to the event. 00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:13.839 I don't want to be the plus one. 00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:14.880 Plus one. 00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:15.359 Yeah. 00:23:15.599 --> 00:23:18.799 Not you so-and-souls uh Absolutely not. 00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:22.480 You so-and-souls girl, or oh, that's no. 00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:23.839 Absolutely not. 00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:28.240 Is I'll be on the invitation list, but I will not be a plus one. 00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:28.880 Right. 00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:32.799 And conducting myself in that way. 00:23:33.039 --> 00:23:46.640 I remember literally being on the campus of UF, Turlington Plaza, and those guys being like, nah, you uh we not gonna mess with you because you wifey material. 00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:54.400 Because day 17, 18, 19, they they just want, you know, the sexual stuff and to be moving on. 00:23:54.480 --> 00:23:58.000 They weren't at that place of wanting to cuff up or link up or anything like that. 00:23:58.319 --> 00:23:58.799 Cough and see. 00:23:59.519 --> 00:24:02.480 They they this was about just having fun. 00:24:02.640 --> 00:24:11.920 And but you see, even in that moment, there was a distinction between how I carried myself and then how they looked at me. 00:24:12.480 --> 00:24:17.440 Because as opposed to the old reliables, or the jump-off. 00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:21.759 Or the jump-offs, you know, who were just like, I'm down for whatever. 00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:23.119 And the treatment was different. 00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:31.519 So let me when we talk about this, you know, invitation, because you were talking about like, you know, you want to be the person that's invited, not the plus one. 00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:40.640 I always think about when these girls are invited and they're the plus one, do you really know what that invitation means? 00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:43.519 Do you know what it comes with? 00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:50.480 Uh, are you going there with the expectation that it's gonna come with, you know, A, B, C, X, Y, Z? 00:24:50.880 --> 00:24:52.319 Like, what is it? 00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.960 Well, I don't think that those girls are not the ones that are invited in the spotlight. 00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:03.119 You know, those are the

girls who, those are not the girls who go who are on the red carpet. 00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:11.119 The ones who are on the red carpet typically are the wives, you know, um, very serious relationships. 00:25:11.759 --> 00:25:15.279 Um, those are the girls who are in the hotel lobby. 00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:17.279 Now, but now let me say this though. 00:25:18.559 --> 00:25:19.519 No disrespect. 00:25:19.680 --> 00:25:26.880 No, but in all honesty and all fairness, I will say, um, because you and I have been in positions before. 00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:28.559 We've been backstage. 00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:31.519 Um Yeah, but we together. 00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:36.559 I mean, come on now, right?

00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:58.160 Because you got two people, right? 00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:10.720 Two people willingly, you know, wanting to network, wanting to genuinely talk, wanting to genuinely connect, but why only one of them is going to be labeled, you know. 00:28:11.279 --> 00:28:12.400 Well, it's a power, yeah. 00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:14.319 It's a power issue. 00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:21.680 The person who is in power is not going to be a groupie, but that's the person who is subordinate is going to be in. 00:28:21.759 --> 00:28:40.079 If it's a subordinate who is, you know, trying to claim some level of fame or attachment or attention, and sometimes that can parlay into a sexual relationship, that person is going to be labeled as a groupie. 00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:45.359 And here's why I challenge women because you know, there's nothing wrong with having standards. 00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:55.519 You can absolutely say, I want a man who is financially stable, I want somebody that's ambitious, I want somebody that's successful, who can provide. 00:28:55.920 --> 00:28:58.640 But I do ask this, and this is my challenge. 00:28:58.880 --> 00:29:06.079 Would you still, and you know where I'm going with this, would you still want him if nobody knew he had money? 00:29:06.319 --> 00:29:12.880 If nobody knew he was successful, if nobody knew, you know, would you still want to be with him? 00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:14.480 I think or her. 00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:20.559 Yeah, I think the success, the money, the lifestyle is more enticing. 00:29:21.839 --> 00:29:33.119 People can be who what people can be with whoever they want to be, but that success, that stardom, that's intoxicating. 00:29:33.759 --> 00:29:44.000 Now, that man who is, you know, collecting the trash, picking up the recycle, doing the yard work. 00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:46.160 But he's that could be successful. 00:29:46.480 --> 00:29:47.200 A good man. 00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:47.920 That's a good man. 00:29:48.000 --> 00:29:48.799 Good man, Savannah. 00:29:49.279 --> 00:29:51.359 Good man, Savannah. 00:29:54.079 --> 00:30:08.160 But committed, but not as many women maybe checking for him as opposed to the guys who are all over the world. 00:30:08.400 --> 00:30:10.880 Or all over social media. 00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:11.359 Oh,

yeah. 00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:17.680 Or, you know, or or or who even have the potential to be all over. 00:30:18.640 --> 00:30:22.079 Or he has 2,000 followers, but he has 2 million followers. 00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:24.480 So I'm gonna go over here with him. 00:30:24.720 --> 00:30:33.440 So there's a difference between I want a man that's successful versus I want a man who everybody else knows that he's successful. 00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:34.160 Nobody wants to be able to do that. 00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:35.839 That's the that's the difference. 00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:41.359 Uh I will always say nobody wants anybody that nobody else don't want. 00:30:41.519 --> 00:30:42.400 Nobody else don't want. 00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:46.880 I mean, you want you want for your person to be wanted by other people. 00:30:47.680 --> 00:30:51.759 That's that's part of how we as humans are. 00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:55.200 But it'll make you look yourself in the mirror like, now why? 00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:56.319 Don't I know this person? 00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:58.559 Don't nobody else want this person. 00:30:58.799 --> 00:31:00.480 Flirt with him, do something. 00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:01.279 Nobody. 00:31:01.440 --> 00:31:02.559 Wink at him. 00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:04.000 Something. 00:31:04.640 --> 00:31:05.599 Something. 00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:07.920 Something. 00:31:09.119 --> 00:31:11.039 You know, because I always think about that. 00:31:11.119 --> 00:31:12.880 Like, would you date him if he wasn't famous? 00:31:13.039 --> 00:31:17.759 Would you date him if he was driving a uh a Honda Civic, a Honda core? 00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:25.920 You know, I think women can be very, I think women can be very, very forgiving and be very accepting. 00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:28.400 But again, that's back to that access. 00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:35.680 Would you want him if you walked into a restaurant with him and nobody knew who he who he is?

00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:28.480 You can't control that you may be in their phone as jump off instead of as your name. 00:39:28.800 --> 00:39:34.400 Or or not only that, your your co-workers start, you know, to look at you differently. 00:39:34.559 --> 00:39:35.039 Oh, I'm sorry. 00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:44.239 Your your family start to look at you differently, jump off one, uh jump off Jax, a jump off Chicago, a jump off Charlotte. 00:39:44.400 --> 00:39:47.840 I mean, it it's that's just the unreliable New York. 00:39:50.559 --> 00:39:52.960 Good knees, uh, Chattanooga. 00:39:56.239 --> 00:40:00.639 So does perception uh

00:49:43.440 --> 00:49:46.639 We protected each other and we're here. 00:49:48.239 --> 00:49:54.480 Dope or nope, you intentionally go to events because you know that wealthy men are going to be there. 00:49:54.800 --> 00:49:56.480 Well, that that doesn't apply to us. 00:49:56.800 --> 00:50:09.280 Not applicable in a dope or nope, you intentionally go to events because you know wealthy men will be there. 00:50:09.440 --> 00:50:12.719 I would say, you know, of no. 00:50:13.760 --> 00:50:17.920 No, but there are people that do. 00:50:18.239 --> 00:50:23.679 There are people that uh go to certain restaurants because they know a certain class of people are gonna be there. 00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:28.559 Because again, it's about the validation, the access. 00:50:29.039 --> 00:50:32.639 Listen, if we're gonna network, it's cool, but yeah. 00:50:33.360 --> 00:50:38.719 Networking is cool, but other than that, no thank you. 00:50:40.639 --> 00:50:45.760 Wanting a man who can provide isn't the problem. 00:50:46.400 --> 00:50:57.280 Wanting to go to a concert, meeting somebody famous, attendance, attending the after party, just having fun isn't automatically a problem either. 00:50:57.440 --> 00:51:00.800 The question is, what are you really chasing? 00:51:01.519 --> 00:51:02.800 Is it the person? 00:51:03.280 --> 00:51:04.639 Is it the lifestyle? 00:51:04.800 --> 00:51:06.320 Is it validation? 00:51:06.639 --> 00:51:07.840 Is it access? 00:51:09.039 --> 00:51:15.119 Money, or is it just, I don't know, is it just the story that that you want to tell? 00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:19.840 You just may want to wake up next morning and have a good a good story to tell. 00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:25.679 Or is it the feeling of being chosen by somebody who everybody else wants? 00:51:26.159 --> 00:51:36.559 The most important question is if the money, the fame, the followers, the access disappeared, would you still want that person and would you still be okay? 00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:46.559 Because there's a difference between being attracted to success and being attracted to what success can do for you. 00:51:48.079 --> 00:51:48.800 Stay dope.
