5 Ways To Be A Minimalist
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
And then, most importantly, keep the money, okay?
Because one of the worst things is that people are not able to preserve their resources.
And what we're going to talk about today will hopefully help you guys with that.
Go ahead and, you know, live a better life because I'm telling you guys, you know, when I worked in the professional world, I was a six-figure earner, now multi-millionaire.
Possessions are not all their correct up to me.
I promise you guys, they're not.
They're really not.
Right.
So, yeah, and again, I apologize, guys, because so, okay.
JG Cesar says, Brian, I'm leaving my current job for a better job that has more benefits and room to grow.
But I'm taking a $12K pay cut because doing it for the right reasons.
It's very simple, guys.
It's in the name.
It's not owning a lot of things.
Now, when you don't own a lot of things, what ends up happening is you, you know, this is a dating podcast.
We talk to you guys all the time about getting girls and being more attractive, et cetera.
The thing that sucks with that, if you can get by your hindbrain, right, and figure out, I was super, I need the new sixes, I need the new Jordans, I need the new true religions, I need the new Ed Hardy's, I got to be, you know, looking good.
I worked at Mason, the dip set, all that crap, right?
So I go to college, right?
Other parts of Connecticut that aren't the hood, right?
New Hampshire, Vermont.
People from California, Northeast was a private school, so attracted a lot of kids from all over the country, Florida.
And I realized all these kids came from, you know, affluent areas all over the United States, right?
And none of them wore Jordans.
None of them wore designer.
None of them wore any of this stuff.
And I kind of peeped this and I was like, what's going on here?
And I quickly learned that the only people that wear designer, the only people that wear fancy, expensive, overpriced clothing and sneakers like this are idiots, right?
People that aren't really financially astute.
And I said, you know what?
I'm not doing this anymore.
And I downsized.
I stopped buying Jordans.
I stopped buying Nike phone posits, $200 a pair.
I stopped buying True Religion jeans, Ed Hardy, polo, low cost.
I stopped buying all that.
I just living room area, very small.
Little bedroom.
And then you go in and bathrooms right there with a closet.
I bought one couch, put it there, a little TV.
I had a table, like a dining room table cost me like $97.
I'll never forget that.
I bought a mattress, put it on the floor, slept on that, and that's it.
It's all I had.
A couch, one, one table with one chair, a little TV, mattress on the bed, on the floor.
That's it, right?
So this was like my journey.
Then, after I graduated from, or after one, it saves money.
Number two, when I do decide to move out, I don't have all this stuff I got in my drag with me, right?
So I went ahead, got an apartment right here at Brickell, down the street, not too far from where I'm at right now, paid $1,700 a month.
I moved in 2018.
let's go through this timeline real quick 2007, 2008 I'm on my Flyboy thing, right?
Diplomats, Cameron, we're dressing well.
We're wearing nice stuff at Hardy Designer, all that, right?
2007 up until about 2009.
I do one year at CCSU, still hanging out with the boys in New Brunswick, Connecticut.
Fall of 2009, I started.
Later, I got Red Pull on that, ditched all the Jordans, ditched all that stuff.
Traded my true Ligin jeans for Levi's, traded my Jordans for Sperry's.
Traded my Ed Hardy's for like maybe one regular basic polo, and I just kept it go pushing with that.
Traded in my North Face for Patagonia and never looked back since.
Then, right, I graduated from college 2014.
I go to the, I, you know, I graduate the academy, et cetera.
I go in Laredo, Texas.
I get into my first apartment, don't own anything.
A couch, a table, a dining room table, cost me $100.
Couch cost me like $200, and a mattress that costs me like $300.
And I owned in it.
Some clothes, and that's it.
No furniture, no nothing.
I get here, put my deposit, pay $1,700 a month, living in an apartment that's fully furnished.
That's a hack, guys.
Huge hack.
Right?
Then after I moved out of that apartment, I didn't start procuring things, and I didn't move out that apartment until I started the FreshFit podcast.
The only reason I even own things now, right?
Whether it's this American flag behind me, the signs, all this stuff, right?
All this stuff that you guys see here, right?
But I don't care about any of it, right?
And this is where I want you guys to be.
Now, obviously, I took on my evolution to figure this out, right?
But I'm hoping I could save you guys a couple thousand or tens of thousands and buying a designer, buying the shoes and everything, realizing, like, yo, it's not worth it.
It's dumb.
You don't need that.
If anything, put that money into going to the gym, focusing on yourself, right?
Make the clothes look good on you.
You wear the clothes, the clothes don't wear you, right?
You don't need an expensive suit.
It's better to have a cheap suit, right?
That's tailored well than to have an expensive suit that's not tailored.
I'm gonna say that again for you guys.
It's more important to have a cheap suit that starts with.
I gave you guys my evolution.
So first I explained what minimalism is.
Then I gave you guys my journey of minimalism.
Now let's talk about how to actually achieve this.
Okay.
So first, I want you guys to own 200 to 300 things.
Okay.
Two to 300 things.
You need to start getting rid of things.
All right?
Two to three hundred things.
That's number one.
Number two, how are we going to get rid of these things?
If you haven't used it in the last 30 to 90 days, it's time to get rid of it, man.
Okay?
If you haven't used it in the past 30 to 90 days, get rid of it.
All right, don't buy any new clothes.
No need, all right.
All you need when it comes to clothes is this.
I'll make it very simple for you guys: one pair of black jeans, one pair of blue jeans, right?
Maybe a pair of dark jeans, dark blue.
That's it for pants and jeans.
Then a black shirt, a white shirt, maybe a jean jacket, a leather jacket, right?
One pair of checker boots, one pair of Chelsea boots, one pair of white tennis shoes.
That's it, dude.
You can mix and match those outfits with the Thailand.
All right, bro, whatever.
There's a difference between being a minimalist and then being a brokey.
You're just a brokey.
Big difference, my friend.
Big difference being a brokey versus being a minimalist.
Let me, let me be, let me actually, let me say this too, okay?
Because I'm actually glad that that guy said that.
Some of you guys are just poor and broke, and you're going to say, I'm a minimalist because that.
No, that's cope.
That's cope.
It's one thing to be a minimalist because you're choosing to be.
It's another thing to be a minimalist because you're forced to be.
Big difference.
Okay.
Big difference.
So, anyway, going back to what I was saying, excuse me.
So don't own many things, guys.
All right.
Couple shirts, five shirts, two, three pairs of jeans, two, three pairs of shoes, right?
Go there again, like a big jacket, one big jacket.
Mix and match that.
You're good.
All right.
Couple shirts.
That's it.
Nothing crazy.
Solid tease work.
Right.
And then, you know, three, four pairs of like gym shorts, workout t-shirts, one pair of sneakers to work out.
Cool.
Right.
Then, so two to three hundred things.
Limited wardrobe.
If you haven't used it in 30 to 90 days, get rid of it.
Okay.
Here's another thing.
I don't cook, guys.
I don't cook.
All right.
And the reason why I don't cook is because it's a big time waster and you have to have a bunch of stuff in the house to do it.
Pots, pans, all this stuff.
All right.
Now, I've done this before with Brandon Carter.
Figure out how much you make an hour or what you're worth an hour.
Okay.
I'll be honest.
A lot of you guys are going to figure out once you do the math that cooking for yourself is extremely burdensome, time-consuming, and you could probably use that time to make more money.
Okay.
Me and Brandon have the joke: we say cooking is for poor people.
I'll be honest with you guys, in a lot of ways, it is.
Okay?
I highly suggest you either A eat out or B, more smarter or smarter, excuse me, smarter option is to get a meal prep service.
Why?
With a meal prep service, you could pay 70, 100 bucks a week, 50 bucks a week, depending on where you live, different pricing.
You know how much calories you're getting in.
A lot of times the macros are cut out for you: protein, grams, how many grams of protein, carbs, and fats.
You're going to eat two through three of those a day.
And then focus on working.
Because cooking, when you actually do all the math, is extremely burdensome.
Okay?
You got to get pots and pans.
You got to go to the grocery store.
You got to let the food throw out.
You got to prepare the food.
You got to chop stuff up.
Get it ready.
Get seasoning.
Cook.
Clean.
Put stuff away.
Right?
Some people like to, you know, cook all their stuff on a Sunday, get all their meal stuff prepped for Sunday.
You can do that too if you want.
But honestly speaking, right, you guys should all be working to outsourcing cooking immediately.
That's one of the first things you want to outsource.
Okay?
One of the first things you want to outsource.
Because I'm telling you guys, when you do the math and you, you know, calculate how long it takes you to go to the grocery store, pick up the groceries, prepare the groceries, actually cook, then sit down, eat, clean up after yourself, everything, bro, it is extremely time consuming.
Extremely.
Extremely.
Nobody I know that's successful cooks their own food.
Unless they're like, even guys that are like top-tier chefs, they don't even cook for themselves.
Okay?
You got a girlfriend or something that's different.
But I highly suggest that you guys outsource cooking right away.
And I'll tell you, another reason why you want to outsource it is because the pots and pans and everything else, less on your mind.
Guys, the purpose of being a minimalist is so that you don't have to worry about stuff.
You focus on stuff that matters.
Making more money, your business, doing your job, working more hours.
That's what you care about.
You want to put all your effort and resources into things that make you money.
Okay?
Not take away mental clarity and bog you down.
Okay?
So cooking is a silent time killer.
Now, I understand some of you guys in the chat.
Some of you guys are Emeral Lagasse.
You guys want to cook and you guys want to be able to, hey, bam, you know what I mean?
You guys think you're Bobby Flay, whatever.
Fine.
You enjoy cooking.
It's a hobby.
Do it in a manner where it's not as destructive.
You're cooking on a Sunday, the whole day.
You're getting the food already out for the week.
I can tolerate that.
I can tolerate that.
But this cooking every day, all this other stuff, bro, come on, man.
You're in the zone.
You're working.
Now you got to get up and flip some steaks.
Come on, man.
Right?
So, like, and like, and I tell people this too.
Like, if you ever get into content creation, right?
If you ever get into content creation, whether you're a YouTuber or TikTok or Instagram, whatever, the number one thing I tell everybody, outsource editing.
That's the first thing you need to outsource, right?
Outsourcing editing is like the equivalent to like what I say, like in your life, you want to be a minimalist, become successful, outsource cooking, bro.
Outsource cooking.
So, boom, we got a chef in the house.
He says, Chef Tony, I've been a chef for 22 years, executive for seven, and I never want to cook anything else out of work.
Thank you so much for that, Chef Tony.
I appreciate you, bro.
There you go.
You got a professional chef right there telling y'all.
There you go.
You know?
And guys, I'm telling you, it's not that expensive to outsource the cooking.
I'm telling you guys, it really isn't.
Every single one of you guys in here can make six figures a year.
Every single one of you guys watching me right now can make six figures a year.
If you can make six figures per year, you can absolutely outsource cooking.
Okay?
That's another thing, right, that we're going to talk about with the minimalism.
I need you guys to focus on cutting out whatever you need to cut out so that you can make $100,000 per year.
Okay?
I need you guys to make $10K per month.
That is the goal.
$10K per month.
I don't care if you got to work two jobs, three jobs, et cetera.
You need to have things where nothing is bogging you down.
And being a minimalist will help you with that.
Your only focus is to make $100K per year.
If you have to acquire tools and items and stuff like that, so you can make that money.
That's one thing.
But like in your personal life, if you don't need it, you get rid of it.
Like I told you guys before, 30, 90 days.
If you're not using it, get rid of it.
Okay, I'll read Chats here in a second.
Another thing that will help you guys a lot.
Books, magazines, all this stuff.
Go digital, guys.
Go digital.
Try to have as much of your stuff digital as possible.
You'll be surprised at how not having a bunch of books and all this other stuff clogging you up, how much that'll free you up.
Try to go digital with as much of your stuff as you can.
Okay?
Go digital.
What else?
Oh, this won't be important.
Cancel all your subscriptions.
Guys, you'll be shocked at how much money you guys are losing on like random subscriptions here and there.
Okay?
I highly suggest, I highly suggest, and they're not even paying me to say this.
Get like a rocket money or one of these apps that tracks all your recurring expenses and cancel everything that you don't use.
Okay?
The Hulu account, the Netflix account, et cetera, cancel all that stuff.
Right?
If you're not actively using it all the time to better yourself, by the way, get rid of it.
If you're using Netflix to watch, you know, a dumb TV show and you're not making six figures a year, cancel it.
If you're watching Hulu all the time to watch anime, but you're broke still, cancel it.
Okay?
These are rewards for people that are doing what they're supposed to be doing.
Okay?
Hell, if you're a brokeie, I don't even want you an OSS like that.
Cancel OSS if you're not going to go ahead and use it and actually learn from it.
You know?
If you're a brokey, you don't have your stuff together or you're not like, you know, watching and learning, whatever from here.
Then yeah.
So yeah, guys, I want you guys to be making 10K per month.
You guys can absolutely do it, man.
Absolutely do it.
Absolutely could be done.
All right, let me read some of these chats real quick.
Mine, I'm 17 in my psychology class.
We have a Socratic seminar about LGDB, well, alphabet.
It's a complete joke.
I'm curious what you think I should talk about to help educate everyone about the joke is.
You'll get yourself in trouble.
Don't do that.
My friend, you're in the Matrix.
Just stay in the Matrix.
Don't mess yourself up.
You're 17.
Warehouse guy.
To all my fellow brokeies out there, you have a bad degree in anything.
Work for Amazon.
4 a.m. will get you 60K base, 12.5K stock over two years with annual wage review of more stock every year.
There you go.
Force also, I'm 28, grew up in a project, moved to LA, started making money, had all the designer mad stuff I didn't need.
Blew all my money, left California, bought a camper living on a property I'm developing.
I created 250K in equity, profit in the past six months, and starting a new project.
Good stuff.
One chess says W minimalism.
W having self-control in your finances.
I learned how you do anything is how you do everything.
Manage all your dollars well, manage your calories well, and manage your minutes well, and you'll be ahead of 90% plus the people.
Yep.
Druski, so you wait, you sold all those designer clothes or you just threw them away?
I threw them away.
Chef Tony, I've been a chef for 22 years.
Yep, that was before we did that.
Boogeyman, the cooking thing is tough.
I prep boiled eggs for breakfast for the Brett Week.
I buy prep chicken from Stu Leonard, so all I have to do is heat it up.
I used two to three items max just to cook.
Once you have the routine down, it could be pretty efficient.
Still wouldn't be nice.
Still be nice to have a girl do that for me, not going to lie.
Yeah, that's pretty good right there, my friend.
A meal prep service would be good too.
JD has, yo, Myron, just chatting Annie Frazilla chat earlier, had a positive answer and said they had been planning on collaborating.
I hope it's true.
We'll see what happens, bro.
They got my number, you know.
They got my number.
They can hit me up.
Pablito says, when it comes to cooking, I just buy stuff that bakes easy.
Like, go chicken thighs, just prep them and place them in the oven.
Yeah, whatever's easiest for you guys.
Punisher, wait a minute, Myron.
With all due respect, I see you cooking every day, especially on X. Punisher, don't be low IQ, bro.
I'm a podcaster.
This is my job to be on X. Like, don't be low IQ, bro.
Come on, man.
Use your brain.
You're smarter than that.
Capitalist Joker.
This minimalism is video is such an important topic and honestly should be a life philosophy for any serious man.
W Some of the distractions life focus on is extremely valuable.
Thank you for sharing, Myron.
Appreciate you, bro.
Got you.
America first and don't pay for box.
Yeah, don't do that.
That'll be very bad.
Humble genie, tell these people to cancel anime corn and corn in general.
If you are broke, then you obviously don't deserve to get laid.
Four months inconsistent in a gym will change the way you look and feel distrastically enough to get women fixed to mine alongside the wallet.
Yep, absolutely.
Absolutely.
Yeah, I mean, let's talk about the gym too.
Like, this is something that I've talked about, but I'm going to harp on it even more so with minimalism.
And this will help you stay disciplined too.
Guys, you need to be in the gym.
You need to train.
Okay.
One of the few things that memberships you need to keep is your gym membership.
Whether you work out at your building, you have a membership to an LA Fitness or whatever, go to the gym.
Because going to the gym, that's going to help you with creating a foundation of discipline.
All right.
Having a foundation of discipline, guys, is going to allow you to cut out all the clutter and all the stuff you have.
It'll help you downsize your wardrobe.
It'll help you make the decisions to buy the healthy food, right?
Or to get the meal prep.
So the gym is the foundation to everything.
All right?
It really is.
Sidon.
What if I got a subscription for my protein and creatine?
Says me about $30 rather than buying it separately.
Yeah, then that's fine.
Look, guys, I'm talking about subscription services that don't serve you.
All of you guys probably have like some app that you're paying for that you don't know, or you're using, you have a Netflix subscription that you don't use, or Hulu.
I'm talking about something that you don't use.
Or when you do use it, it doesn't benefit you.
Hopefully, you guys are in OSS.
You guys are watching the content.
You guys are getting educated on, you know, politics, the news, et cetera.
You guys know what's going on in the world.
That's why I make sure to, you know, keep OSS's education heavy as possible.
You know?
Yes, a little bit of entertainment, but it's mostly for your education.
Okay.
Pablito says, I took Myrons advice 2020.
I bought my first house in 23.
When people ask me how I stay minimalism, I say no women.
Yeah, that'll help you.
That'll help you.
Jakey Season as an engineer in the oil and gas industry, it's very high-risk reward job.
So I need to control my finances because I can lose my job anytime.
Layoffs are coming in the oil field.
Yeah, bro.
Be smart.
The real elite to my last chat.
What last chat did you say?
Type it up again, bro, because I don't see it.
Tones, haven't had many people talk to take this, talk about the security, cybersecurity path.
We did a whole episode on that.
Potentially make a lot of money, so much free education.
Bro, we did an episode on cybersecurity.
I'm pretty sure we had a guy come in and talk about it.
One of Fresh's people.
Right?
So let's go through some of this stuff.
Recap.
Number one, foundation.
Get in the gym.
Okay?
I didn't mention in the beginning, but I'm going to say it again now because it's the foundation of everything.
Get in the gym and train.
It's going to create the rudimentary basics and discipline that you need to get everything else done here.
Next, cut your stuff down.
Two to two through two to three hundred things that you own.
Okay?
To make the cuts and make it easier for you.
If you haven't used it in between 30 to 90 days, get rid of it.
Okay?
Next, eliminate cooking if you can.
Focus on making more money.
Cook less.
Don't have the pots and pans.
Get rid of that.
Okay?
Either get a meal prep service or, if you are going to cook, cut it down to maybe one day a week so you can focus on working because the cooking is extremely time consuming.
Okay?
If you can, get apartments that are furnished.
This isn't necessarily a step, but this is what I did when I told you guys my story.
That will help you so much.
Get an apartment that's furnished, guys, so you own less things.
Okay?
Cut down subscription services that aren't actively helping you.
Okay?
If you have a Kindle subscription, but you're reading books and you're becoming smarter, keep it.
If you're watching OSS and you're not being, you know, and you're learning, keep it.
But if you're not, get rid of it.
Even me, I'm not immune to this.
Come back when you can afford it, especially if you're a brokeie.
All right?
If you're a brokeie, you got other things to focus on.
If you're a broke, you need to focus on getting 10K per month, bro.
10K per month is the goal.
Okay?
Cut and minimalize everything in your life that isn't helping you with freeing up mind space so you can hit that 10K per month.
Okay?
You're never going to achieve financial freedom until you get 10K per month first.
That is the first part.
Okay?
That is the first goal that you need.
10K per month.
Okay, guys?
What else?
Also, try not to live with a woman.
They're going to buy stuff.
Live by yourself.
Okay, guys?
Live by yourself.
Help you with peace.
Help your tranquility.
It'll make you more attractive anyway.
So don't live with a girl.
Don't live with your girl.
A big part of that isn't just about, you know, maintaining attraction, but also because it's hard to find a woman that's a minimalist, guys.
I'll be honest with y'all.
Okay?
Very difficult.
So don't live with your girlfriend.
YTL, what are your opinions on e-commerce businesses?
Yeah, it's oversaturated, but a good percentage of those creators give up at least three months in.
I know someone has to stand out, and I'll take time to figure that out.
Yeah, that's cool.
I mean, we did episodes with KT Hustles.
Go check those episodes out on Fresh of Fit.
Off topic, but I was double charged.
Okay.
I'll talk to Noble when I see him today.
Hey, let me take a picture of this real quick.
Taking a picture for you now.
Senator Noble for you.
Nanyahu's coming back to the White House.
Trump invited him again.
What else is new, huh?
What else is new?
Cool, guys.
Get your questions in because I'm going to wrap up soon here, man.
My voice is cooked.
But yeah, man, you guys shouldn't even be bothering looking for a woman unless you got your money on point, man.
And I also want to be clear about this, too.
I said this earlier.
Some guy said, oh, minimalism is a scam.
I'm backpacking in Thailand and it sucks.
Bro, that's because you're poor.
Okay?
That's because you're poor.
There's a difference between being a minimalist because you have to be because you're poor versus being a minimalist because you're choosing to so you can have peace of mind and work harder.
Big difference.
If you're a brokey and you're a minimalist, it's going to suck.
When you have a money together and you're a minimalist, it's going to create peace.
Does that make sense, guys?
These broke backpacker guys, nobody cares what your opinion is, bro.
I'm sorry.
I don't mind to be like a jerk or whatever, but you're poor.
No one cares about your opinion.
Okay?
Clearly, you're in my chat right now in Thailand on a cell phone of some kind.
Your priorities are messed up.
You probably went to Thailand as a brokey trying to be a passport, bro.
Not realizing that you're poor.
Not a good move.
Chasing women across the country.
I'm sorry, across the globe.
Don't do that.
Sage Myron, I work three jobs seven days a week, close to 120 hours each week.
I only make 80K per year, but you helped me build my disc one to go from 40 to 80K.
Time for me to level up even more to push 100.
Good stuff, man.
Good stuff.
Abraham on 17 starting to make 510K a week.
Okay, good stuff for you, bro.
I was off for the cars and materialistic stuff, but you really guided me away from that.
Yeah, bro.
Don't be a moron because that money can come fast and then you lose fast too.
The real leap related to Pierce surrounded official genders.
Okay, I'm probably not going to cover the Pierce thing, guys.
I'm not going to lie.
I got to go.
I'm going to go to Starbucks or something.
I got to get some tea and honey.
I got to rest my voice.
But I'm going to finish answering questions here for you guys.
What else here?
What is his question?
Opinion on having hobbies?
No hobbies unless you're making 10K per month, man.
You don't deserve to have hobbies, bro.
You don't deserve to have hobbies if you're making less than 10K per month.
And I'm not trying to be hyperbolic or be a jerk saying that, but having hobbies is a privilege that comes from you having extra time from you working hard.
Okay?
So, so yeah.
Look, I got a hater saying, dude's been on for an hour.
Bro, my voice is cooked.
I'm sick and I'm still here.
Like, what?
And I'm probably still going to do after-hours.
Bro, people are so unappreciative, man.
This dude's name, Matt Cab, bro.
This dude's unappreciative, like, bro.
And you're in Castle Club too, bro.
I don't even want you in, man.
Can't cancel your subscription, bro.
Just cancel your subscription, honestly.
What the, like, bro, what the hell?
Like, what's wrong with this guy?
Any other questions, guys?
I'll hang on for a little bit.
If there are any questions, nah, dude is just unappreciative, bro.
Dude's name is Met Cab.
Like I don't even want him in the bro.
You're an OSS.
Like, get out, bro.
I don't even want you in.
Don't renew your thing, bro.
Honestly.
Like, what?
Literally over here.
Voice gone.
Dude is did it like an 11-12 hour stream yesterday.
Dude is over here talking smack, bro.

Abraham, I know you lost your voice, but yesterday's stream was one of the best.
Appreciate the work you put in.
Now, rest for the work you have ahead.
Yeah, bro.
That's why I got annoyed by this guy, Matt Cab.
Like, unappreciative, bro.
I don't even want you in my community, bro.
Literally, I'm over here feel like crap, sick.
This guy's over here saying, like, oh, MF or been on for an hour.
Like, bro, get out my chat.
Get out of my community, bro.
My son, would any other active sports that's hyper-focused on your body progression a good alternative than Jim?
Because as of now, I'm just so focused on my MMA trainings.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, dude, if you're doing MMA, that's cool.
That's cool, but don't be one of these brokeies that's training MMA and you're broke.
Like, don't do that.
You know, um, Fifth Elemental, Martin, where do I send the DoorDash with chicken soup and hot?
I appreciate you, man.
But no, I'm good.
I'm good.
I just don't like unappreciative people.
That's one of the most like one of my pet peeves, bro.
I absolutely hate unappreciative people.
So, um, did like a 10 or 11-hour stream yesterday.
I stream more than anybody else, bro, by far.
No one comes close.
Um, let's see here, okay.
Uh, Bamir says, uh, hey, Myron, looking to lose weight without getting loose skin.
Any tips or workouts to do in the gym?
Uh, the key, if you want to lose weight without getting loose skin, is uh, you got to do it very nice and slowly.
That's you got to do it nice and slowly.
If you lose weight too quickly, then that loose skin is definitely going to come.
But if you're really big, it might be almost inevitable.
Lana, I wish more women listened to Myron.
W almost nine years with my husband.
We just welcomed our baby and met when we were 16.
Now we're 25.
I love more women listening to you.
I appreciate you, Laura, or Lana, excuse me.
Appreciate you greatly.
Hey, as long as the smart ones listen, it's all good.
V Lo Geo is at the moment still good business to do.
Still, I'm trying to get my money up.
Okay, rest up, Myron.
Nobody works so hard as you do.
I appreciate you, man.
Fresh updates, WOSS.
Appreciate you, man.
Cool.
I think we're VLO Geo.
Is it a good idea to have crypto fund real estate so that I can do FHA loan on a duplex?
You can, but remember, you have to pull the crypto out and pay capital gains taxes on it.
So, and crypto is volatile.
So, make sure you're you know what you're doing.
All right, cool.
So, guys, I think that's going to do it for today's episode, Money Monday.
Um, I'm going to, we're not going to do the pierce thing.
I'm going to probably do it tomorrow.
Um, I'm going to figure out what I'm going to do with the after hours right now.
I think we're still going to do after hours, whether I do it or sit in the back and have Fresh and Chris do it because I already know that I could stream and go hard, but I know if I do that, I'm going to be sick tomorrow.
You know, you know, when you're in that in-between period, guys, where like if you don't sleep enough or you don't drink water or whatever, you know, you're going to be sick the next day.
I'm right there in the in-between.
Like, every decision I make over the next 12 hours is going to dictate how I feel tomorrow.
It's like one of those pivotal situations.
You feel like you're going to get sick.
You're like, oh no, I need to get that emergency.
That's where I am right now.
So, and yeah, yeah, so that's what it is, man.
Guys, it's fine, man.
Don't be mad at this Matt guy or whatever his name is.
We got rid of him.
He's good.
He's out of here.
He's out of here, bro.
Don't get pissed off at him, guys.
No need.
You know, you always get weirdos every now and then.
You know, so some people, people, you know, you always get like unappreciative people that are weirdos.
It happens, dude.
You know, you got to remember that, like, a lot of people, man, like, just don't have like social awareness.
So it is what it is.
But yeah, guys, I hope that helps you guys with your minimalism goals.
We'll go through it one more time.
Okay.
Step one: you're going to get in the gym and you're going to train.
That's going to build the foundational structure for you to have the discipline to actually, you know, get this done and stick with it, okay?
Long term.
It's not going to be easy to get rid of your stuff.
But if you can go to the gym, grind in there, train really hard, make changes to your body, it's going to be a lot easier to make changes to possession things that you possess.
Okay.
Next, you're going to cut your things that you own down from two to three hundred things in that range.
Okay.
You're going to get rid of anything that you haven't used in the last 30 to 90 days.
Throw it out.
Okay.
The closer you have to 200, the better.
Hell, if you could cut it down to even 100, that's good.
Okay.
You're not going to own much clothes.
You're not going to own much shoes.
Maybe two, three pairs of shoes.
Right.
If you can, get an apartment that's furnished.
Makes your life a lot easier.
Try to avoid cooking.
Get rid of pots and pans.
Outsource that.
Whether you get a meal prep service or you do minimalist cooking or you get food that's easy to prepare or you order out, outsource cooking right away.
That's a huge time killer when you account for everything, right?
Get rid of subscription services that aren't benefiting you.
If you have like crunchy roll or something like that, get rid of that if you're not making 10K per month.
You have not earned the privilege of having a hobby or watching anime or enjoying yourself if you're not making $10,000 per month.
Guys, it's 2025.
$100,000 per year is going to be the new $50K per year.
Okay?
AI is taking jobs.
This is literally sick or swim, do or die.
Make as much money as you can now over the next five years.
I honestly think opportunities are going to start dropping.
Okay?
Live by yourself.
Don't live with your girlfriend.
That will also help you a lot.
Okay?
If you do, and then on top of that, now that you've minimalized a lot of the things in your life, the possession things, focus on making 10K per month, guys.
10K per month.
Do or die.
You can have a full-time job, drive Uber, do Uber Eats on the side.
I don't care.
But the goal is $10,000 per month.
All of you guys can do that.
Every single one of you can make $100K per month.
If you're making $10K per month, you've officially made way too much to be cooking.
Okay?
So there we go.
Martin, when did you become minimalist?
Like 2010, 2011-ish.
Martin, I have $50,000 of liquid assets.
Do you think I should use that to purchase a multifamily home in Massachusetts, or is that not enough?
Probably not enough in Massachusetts, bro.
I'll be honest with you.
Probably not enough.
Unless you're going to do like a FHA home loan.
And it depends where you're buying in Massachusetts.
Jay Hunter, hey, Martin, is there a way we can get a funny montage of your ethnic rants on OSS for OSS only?
Maybe Brett can make you guys a video.
VLO, for next Monday Mondays, you should have Carlton Dennis on.
He's very good at tax savings in real estate.
It'll be a legendary with you and Steven on that day.
And we got Steven.
Steve's the best.
All right, guys.
I hope you guys enjoyed that stream.
I'm sorry, my voice isn't the greatest, but a lot of good info there.
We're going to put a, I'm going to put time stamps in here for you guys and send this video to somebody, you know, short and sweet, right around an hour.
Send this video to somebody that needs help with minimalizing.
I'm sure one of those tips right there can help you out, whether it's, you know, getting rid of anything that you haven't used in 30, 90 days, or cutting down to 200 things, or eliminating cooking, eliminating subscription services you're not using.
Okay.
If you're going to move somewhere to a new city, try to get a furnished apartment.
Okay.
It's worth a little bit extra, right?
For the peace of mind.
Okay, guys?
Love you, ninjas.
I'm going to figure out what I'm going to do with the boys here for First Fit After Hours.
And I'll catch you guys.
