Thank you.
Thank you.
Carlos Cortez with another episode of Scriptures on Wall Street.
Hope you guys are doing well.
I have pretty much some good things to talk about.
Well, some good things, but also, more importantly, some awareness topics I want to really get off my chest here.
A lot of confusion we've had is some calls.
And let me say my disclosure here, in all seriousness, everything I say on this podcast...
Is educational purposes only.
I'm not giving investment advice on this podcast.
I'm not saying to buy certain securities or nothing of that nature.
I want to make myself clear on that.
This is for educational purposes only.
If you feel the need that you need to have some type of investment advice or consultation, give us a call.
813-448-3446.
Somebody on my staff will pick up the phone and we will return your phone call if we do miss you.
But book an appointment with us.
We welcome you with arms wide open.
And we can't get to everybody because our phones are blowing up.
Especially with a lot of volatility, a lot of questionable things going on in the markets.
We want to make sure that you're safe and secure.
Speaking of the markets, my discussion today, I want to just talk about This bull market that we're in.
I like to call it a bear market rally.
Now bear market rallies.
I'm going to show some charts here.
If we look in.
If we just take a step back.
Let's look.
A lot of people, what happens is, okay, big tech, I know big tech is up 35%.
It was down almost 50% last year.
That was the whole reason why the equity markets were pretty bad last year.
The big tech had a huge, huge impact on overall stocks.
The FANG stocks were all down.
Now they're back up 35% year to date.
We all know that Fidelity Contra Fund is up 25% year to date.
Look, these are higher standard deviation type of stocks and investments.
So if you want to be the market, then just completely buy the triple Q's.
They follow the NASDAQ. Or buy the SPY, the S&P 500.
And just be the market.
And if you say, oh, well, I made 30%, 40% this year, year to date.
That's because you're heavy in big tech.
Talk to me last year when you were down close to 50%.
How did that fit you?
Or when banks were being collaborated in the beginning of this year with the stock KRE. If you follow KRE, the ticker, it's an index.
So all I'm saying is, guys, is don't buy into this bear market rally.
I want to just...
I have notes here.
We still have a food shortage.
There's a high cost in food.
I don't even have to show you charts on that, but I have one anyway.
You show the inflation chart on food.
Yes, it is going down.
And here locally in Tampa, Bay News 9 is saying, oh, food grocery prices only went up 0.2% last month.
You joking me?
People can't even afford food right now.
$100 does not get you groceries right now.
For the week anymore.
It hasn't been that way for a while, but $100 maybe gets you two days worth of food.
If you have a family like me of six, it's very easy.
It's very easy to spend $100 on a dinner.
Apologize, I'm a little sleep deprived.
So, food shortage, high cost in foods.
You guys know that when it comes to social security and when it comes to government, they literally take out, when adjusting your social security, they take out food and petroleum and then they add your cost of living adjustment.
They look at the CPI minus the food and petroleum, the two major sectors that are That make up the actual CPI and then they credit that to the calculation of your Social Security adjustment called a COLA, cost of living adjustment.
So we have this problem where income is just not keeping up with inflation.
And I have another chart for that.
Which leads me to the labor markets.
Labor markets are finicky right now.
They're saying that the jobless claims are going down.
But everywhere you go...
So I bought some...
Recently I bought some pool furniture.
No joke.
I bought some pool furniture for my house.
It was from Crate and Barrel.
My wife and I enjoyed this nice pool furniture so we can sit out and watch kids on the beach and shoot some hoops in a basketball pool.
Just really have a good time.
So we ordered a sofa, lounges, outdoor coffee table.
We ordered a dining room set, a table and chairs.
Well, six months go by and we finally get the legs and the table top.
We were very patient.
We've been patient.
And next thing you know, a third party is delivering the furniture.
And this third party tells me that in Spanish that the legs that came in are damaged and therefore we cannot install your table.
I looked at the legs and I said, can you show me the legs, the base?
And he really couldn't show me anything.
And then I was basically just reading him with his body language and his tone.
It was rainy that day.
It was very hot and humid early in the morning.
He just didn't want to do it.
He was just too lazy.
He did not want to set up furniture that day.
I paid $300- $400 for delivery service to have these guys come in and deliver.
And so what that tells you is they use a third party when they deliver the furniture.
The mindset...
The mindset is changing, guys.
I don't know if it was COVID. I don't know if it was the vaccine.
I don't know if it's the lazy ass upbringing.
I don't know what it is, but people are freaking lazy, man.
They don't want to work.
And to spend that much money on furniture for them not to even deliver it or set it up was very upsetting after waiting six months.
So I called them up.
They're picking up the furniture and I'm asking for a full refund.
And I'm going somewhere else where the third party doesn't exist, that the actual company has their own movers and deliverers and furniture technicians, whatever you want to call them, installers, and I simply won't do business with people that don't take care of their customers in hiring a third-party
entity to deliver your accounts.
So that was my...
Wake up call and kind of inspiration on this discussion today is that people don't want to work.
And so if you go in a restaurant, if you go in a tire shop, if you go anywhere, there's higher wanted, needed help, there's signs everywhere.
And they're promoting $19, $20 an hour in certain areas in our country as minimum starting wage.
Absolutely nuts.
You're just going to get replaced by AI and robots and My wife and I were in Europe just a month ago and we went to a McDonald's for poops and giggles.
I think I just wanted a double cheeseburger or something really filthy.
I never even saw a person.
I think the only time I saw a person was the person that actually delivered the food to my table.
Everything was cashless.
Everything was paperless.
All the way to the point of Eating your food.
The food chaser served you.
And then you dump it in the garbage.
In their unique garbage.
And it was just robotic.
I mean, people are being replaced by robots and artificial intelligence.
So just be on the lookout for that.
So the labor markets is very interesting right now because the wages is not keeping up with inflation.
That was the whole point is that not only is wages not getting inflation, but we have a change of mindset in the labor markets on people working.
The whole structure of America is changing.
If you guys notice, people want to work from home.
They don't want to actually work for a company.
And they want to be 1099 and not W2. And so there's apps like Rover or Uber and Lyft.
You could just be a 1099 worker, subcontractor, or independent contractor.
Write everything off.
People pay less taxes when you are a 1099.
You are a business owner.
And the tax code is written for business owners, not W2 employees.
So what I'm saying is that the landscape of America has been changing the past decade, guys.
And I really think this is going to affect Social Security and pensions.
Like, not just Social Security, but actual pensions.
Because if you have the younger generation leaving the workforce and starting their own businesses and going 1099, there's no one paying into those pension companies anymore.
The way the pensions work is that the older guys have worked 30, 40 years.
They get an insurance paycheck, paid out annuity, some type of single premium immediate annuity, joint life, payout life, 10 years certain, 20 years certain.
They get their pension every single month.
From some form of a safe annuity that the insurance company and your corporate job, your employer agreed upon.
Then the younger people keep on working and they help fund the pension fund.
And this cycle continues and continues and continues.
So it used to be a three-legged stool.
You would have...
You would have your 401k savings.
You would have your pension and you would have your social security.
Now there's no such thing as pensions.
Many of you will not have a pension.
You now get a 401k.
And we spoke about the dangers of a 401k.
You don't own your 401k.
If you don't believe me, call your 401k company and say, hey, I would like to take money out right now.
And what you'll quickly find is that you are a participant and not an account owner.
And that's because the 401k is owned by the Department of Labor, the ERISA.
If you look up ERISA, Employee Retirement Information Securities Act, and they're a division of the Department of Labor.
And they make all the rules.
And those rules are like commissioned with plan administrators.
So whatever your plan administrator says, that's what's going down in your 401k and you don't own it.
So call them and see if you can roll it over into a traditional IRA. If you're currently working, there's something called an in-service withdrawal.
I like the word in-service withdrawal because it trips up your 401k call representative, the person that you're speaking to.
And most of them know what an in-service withdrawal is, but basically it's a fancy word for a rollover.
And if you've worked at your job for 5 to 10 years, definitely call your employer and ask if you can do in-service withdrawal to a third-party IRA. This will allow you to invest your retirement funds In a place that you want to.
And we can help you with that.
All you gotta do is give us a call at 1-3-4-4-8-3-4-4-6 or visit our website and book your own consultation if you don't want to speak to anybody.
CortezWM.com C-O-R-T-E-Z W-M.com The link will be in the description for a consultation.
We can look at your financial picture.
We can look at one or two things.
Whatever you want.
And we can give you advice.
We can give you What we recommend from a suitability standpoint based on your risks and objectives.
But more importantly, there's other things.
And this is why I feel like this is a fake market.
Fake market returns.
There's always rallies in bear markets.
So the markets do not slam down.
They go down, up.
The overall trend is negative, but there's these spikes going down.
But the overall trend is negative.
And so I really feel that we're in one of those spikes right now.
And just because you're up, just because you're up 20-30% year to date, that does not mean that you've made your money back from the 30% you lost last year.
So, for every dollar you've lost, you've got to basically make a little over $2 to break even.
So, people are panicking or their FOMO is kicking in, fear of missing out, because they're in treasury bills and they see the market going up.
But yet, we have a food shortage.
We still have an inverted yield curve, guys.
We have an inverted yield curve.
We have the Fed now saying, hey, inflation is cooling off, and it is.
It is.
But they're still going to rise interest rates, so now we have more bank problems.
As the interest rates rise and these banks are holding on to these long-term treasury bills and you guys are asking for money out because you're scared and there's bank runs, well now the bank has lost a boatload of money.
Money that they counted on to make interest off to be profitable.
I say all this because the fundamentals simply just do not make sense.
Going back to the inverted yield curve, five years paying just as much as a two-year or less than a two-year treasury.
The curve has been inverted for a while now and we know that there are bigger problems.
And so what you're going to see is if they pump up the stock market, the dollar will crash.
The dollar will go down.
Cryptos will go up.
Gold, I feel, might be stagnant or could go up.
They could manipulate gold as well.
When I say cryptos, I'm talking about Ethereum and Bitcoin.
You can see those popping back up.
Because people don't trust the banks.
The younger generation does not trust the banks.
They don't even trust a money that can be manipulated.
So with Bitcoin, it is decentralized.
It is institutionalized.
Wall Street has institutionalized it.
There are funds that are in filing right now with the SEC. And there are money managers out there that have a boatload of Bitcoin.
So you're going to see more of that.
And to the lady that called saying I was wrong about Bitcoin, well, guess what?
I apologize.
I'm not perfect.
I never said I was.
And if you're an expert, then come on the show.
However, I do like the advancement of Bitcoin with the lightning technology.
It was slow about 5-6 years ago when I was heavy BTC maxi.
I was a big Bitcoin component 5-6 years ago.
But obviously, as other cryptos evolved, I lost interest to be honest.
But everything is starting to lead more digital.
As the CBDC ticks off, things are becoming more and more hyper-digitized, I would say.
So I have a friend that legit is from India.
We bought some property together, actually.
He's legit from India, and his son plays with my son.
His name is Krishna.
Krishna.
And Krishna, really great guy, patriot, he just came back from India.
And he told me, I asked him, are they using the root ball over there?
And he goes, no.
No, actually, if you use cash, you're slowing down.
They actually look at you as a nuisance.
Because you're slowing them down, everybody has it on their phone, their QR code, their digital wallet, they don't use Apple Pay, they use Google Pay out there.
But everything's electronic.
And he said he didn't even touch cash.
He didn't have any fiat currency over there.
The whole time he was...
He was there for a month.
And he basically said everything was digital.
And that's how the country's ran right now.
So the BRICS... The BRICS are adopting the digital currency.
Like, for real, for real.
No joke.
They are adopting it.
How is that going to affect America?
We are going to find out.
I'm not going to fear-monger you and say, oh, the dollar is going to crash and, you know, they're not going to be the number one currency.
It could happen, guys.
It could happen.
And guess what?
So what?
Do you think I'm fearful of a crashing dollar?
No, we simply just make money off of it.
And how do we do that?
Well, I'm not here to give investment advice.
I'm here to say we don't fear it.
We plan for it.
And so I'm not going to get caught up into these like...
And to these emotions of, oh man, well, Brazil and Russia and India and China, they're creating their own thing.
They're going to crash the dollar.
You could be right.
I'm not saying they're not.
They have a road incentive map.
They are already building that right now.
They are joining forces.
Over 130 countries wants to be with the BRICS. It's not just Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
It's a lot of countries.
And they're just all tired of being bullied and flexed on by the red, white, and blue.
But the fact of the matter is, that's what capitalism has done to our great country.
We are strong.
We're still strong.
Even with stupid face in office, we're still strong.
America is not going to go down on Joe Biden's watch.
We would need about 10 Joe Bidens to bring us to a Venezuela situation.
That's how strong we are.
Guys, don't forget that our troops died for our country.
Don't forget that we still have...
Some of these cities in the United States are bigger than other countries.
Their GDP. Their economy.
Dallas, for an example.
Dallas is so strong.
It's the fourth...
Fourth or fifth largest economy in the world.
Dallas.
Like bigger than other countries.
I mean, this is serious stuff.
So I don't want a fear monger on this channel.
And so people are so...
Fear-mongered.
And then next thing you know, you're buying a crypto scam or you're buying gold or precious metals for 25% commissions and then you're selling it for 20% commissions and then gold is down another 10% or 15% because the dollar is skyrocketing and you've lost all your money.
That's what I don't want.
And if you're listening to this podcast, I hope you've listened to me for a while that I'm not here to...
To sell out.
I'm here to give you content.
I'm here to give you a roadmap.
I can't give investment advice on a podcast, but I can talk about general concepts and my opinions and educational information.
And that's what this is.
With a little bit of scripture.
Because we have to keep God first in all things.
We want to have a sound mind.
God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of love, power, and sound mind.
Some translations say self-discipline.
Well, self-discipline takes a sound mind.
Now, for all you big techies out there that are like, oh yes, the market's up.
I got the contra fund.
I'm up 30-40%.
Great.
I get it.
I get it.
Yes, the market is going up.
But let me just remind you, we still have an inverted yield curve.
We still have rising interest rates.
We have a tightening credit market.
It's hard to get a mortgage.
Mortgage companies cannot lend out jumbo loans right now.
They're just not doing it.
And it's very hard for someone to actually have the capital to pay the down payment to buy a home.
So you will see, in rural areas, home prices come down.
In more demand cities like Tampa, Arizona, California, cities in California, even New York, you'll see a small hair of decline.
And that's only because there's some buyers that can't get underwritten because of the credit markets right now.
But overall, real estate should tinker up because of the crazy demand right now.
So, what is the solution, Carlos?
Why are you talking about all these negative things?
Like, where's a positive?
I'm glad you asked.
Because Big Tech brought us a huge decline last year.
They're bringing us up this year.
I feel they always pump up the market right before election.
They gotta make Stupid Face look somewhat decent.
He's been a crap show since he's got in from Afghanistan, pull out from forcing the vaccine to raising the LGBT flag in the White House.
To the detrimental fentanyl issue all over the country and world.
And not even to mention the failing, failing policies at the border.
Like, you just can't let people come in here.
I mean, they're riding in France because immigrants are just rolling through...
Not France, I apologize.
And Spain.
They're just rolling through Spain and they're riding over there.
Because they're so liberal.
They are so woke over there and that just doesn't work.
You have to have law and order to support your country.
You gotta have rules.
And I don't know where that got lost in translation but maybe because the product that The product that these people rose, I mean, they brought up.
They just didn't discipline.
They didn't have discipline.
They wanted to play the victim card.
They didn't discipline their children.
We have fatherless homes.
We have people that do not care about the cross.
You have gay parades mocking the cross, mocking Jesus.
You know, it's interesting.
You don't see that garbage in an Islamic country.
Why don't you mock Prophet Muhammad?
Why don't you go to Saudi Arabia or Iraq or Iran and say you're gay and free and mock their prophet and mock their God?
See what they do.
But yet, you feel like you can do that over here.
Because Jesus gives us free will.
God gives us free will.
He's so strong and so patient that He will give you grace and give you free will.
But don't test Him because He will strike you like the Levites did when they were messing with strange fire.
God is a God of justice, and He can only take so much.
And it's one of the unforgivable sins, not to mention that blasphemy is one of the unforgivable sins.
So don't go around and be blasphemous, because it won't work, my friend.
It won't work.
But you do need Christ, and we're all sinners.
And it's my goal, my aim, is that Not to learn from this podcast about money and what to do and divergence of risk and whatever I talk about.
My aim for this is so that you have a spiritual awakening and that you acknowledge Christ as your Lord and Savior and that you need Him every day and that your name is in the book of life so we can meet each other one day.
And that you have eternal life.
Not just this temporary stuff.
The gold, the money, the bitcoin, the land, the real estate, the dividends, the properties, the Airbnbs, all that stuff is going to go away.
This is all temporary.
You know, um, I made a commitment.
I made a commitment, um, When I almost died during 2021 at the hospital, I was quickly reminded when I went to go volunteer at a Rise Up Kings event to help other men just work on their faith, their pillars, their faith, their family, their fitness, and their finance.
And I have a confession.
I have a confession.
I would come home from work beat up.
I gave my family sloppy seconds.
I gave them my leftovers.
I wasn't present with them.
I would just look at the phone and satiate, go on Facebook, text message my hockey buddies, text message, whatever, and not really be present with my wife and kids.
And I had to work on that.
And then when my son would say, hey, can we go outside and shoot some pucks?
We don't play football like most families do.
We shoot pucks.
And I would say, man, I'm tired, man.
Why don't we do it tomorrow?
Tomorrow come.
Man, I'm tired.
I'll do it this weekend.
And, man, I'm tired.
I got a game tonight.
Why don't we do it tomorrow?
And that was me.
And that was me.
Or when my little girl just wants to play dolls.
And I'm like, uh...
Not right now.
I gotta answer an email.
Not right now.
I gotta write for a podcast.
Not right now.
I gotta get ready.
I gotta get ready.
Not right now.
How much do we show up with our wife and our kids with sloppy seconds?
I'm guilty of it.
The reason why I brought that up is because it wasn't for me.
It was for someone.
Quit being sloppy seconds because that hinders your kids.
And so they get butt hurt and they wake up woke one day and they go on Fox Business and saying, hey, there's affirmative action going on.
I'm Chinese.
I'm Spanish.
I'm black.
And I didn't get into Harvard.
Well, shut the hell up.
Man up and accept that people are going to racially profile you.
Like, you're going to get profiled even if you're white.
It happens.
And we wonder why we act so freaking wussy.
And it's because we've turned our backs away from masculinity.
We've turned our backs away from femininity, the women.
We've turned our backs away on God, on what a priesthood should be in their home.
We've turned our backs on what the structure is.
Now Bud Light and this lady or man, right?
They want to call it chest feeding instead of breast feeding.
You feminists, where are you right now?
You guys should be screaming at the top of your lungs.
Because now you've got little boys...
Like this Bud Light idiot that wants to be a girl, but he, she is never going to be able to breastfeed.
He will never have that nurturing spirit to give to a child.
Like, you can't play God.
You can't play God.
And I just don't know how long God will...
I just don't know how long God will have his hand on us.
I don't know.
How much is enough where we're pushing the envelope?
How much is it?
I have no idea.
We are literally regurgitating and pissing on his face right now as a country.
Just such disrespect.
It's disgusting.
But yeah, he still loves us.
He still never gives up on us.
I love my son to death.
Both of them.
I can't imagine how much more God loves us.
And it's not until I had my children that I realized, man, Jesus really, really, really loves us.
No matter how effed up we are, man.
So, I wanted just to say, like, We gotta focus on the cross more.
We gotta really, really get in that word and spend time with God.
And let us have self-discipline.
Let us have self-composure.
Ask God for just, like, straight clarity, man.
Like, some people call in and they're just all over the place.
And they're so fearful.
And I have to calm them down.
Like, you're not ready.
You're not ready to become a client.
You're just too all over the place.
Like, you need to work on yourself.
Because money is not going to help you.
What good is money?
If I can grow your money from 100 grand to a million dollars inside of 10 years, how is that going to change your life?
It's not.
Because you'll be dead.
Because you're worried.
The spirit of fear and Satan has you in a stronghold that you can't even enjoy your retirement.
So what?
So what have you made 30%?
Tell me how much of that you can keep.
We talked about red money.
If you're a client, you understand what red money is.
Right now, there's a lot of red money going on.
And you're still stuck in the red money because the Fidelity Contra Fund's up 28%.
Big Tech's up 35%.
The QQQs are up.
The SPY is up.
TNA is up.
Guys, I've been trading these tickers for a long time.
I totally get it.
But what good is it if you have red money and if you're retired, what good is it if you made 20-30% year to date if you can lose it all within the same year?
Would you rather have a 12% that's guaranteed locked and insured?
Or would you rather have a year-to-date 20%, 30%?
Now, if you're younger, you're probably going to say, I want a 20%, 30% non-guaranteed.
If you're older or even a little wiser, you might say the 12%.
Well, in that scenario, if that's you, give us a call because our index right now that we follow, that we have a lot of clients in, the transition index is up 12.1%.
The markets are up over 20% year-to-date.
Depending which index you're looking at, it could be higher.
But I really like our green money solution here because everyone, every of our clients that have this particular account, those gains are locked in, baby.
That is their new principle.
Like, it is insured, guaranteed, locked in, it's out of the market, it's protected, it's secured.
Imagine if you had a million dollars and you made just 12% year to date in six months.
You'll probably be sending me cookies and now I'm dead because I have diabetes.
That was totally a joke.
No, you get my point.
The returns that you make, you need to keep.
That's why we have green money counts.
That's why indexing is so powerful.
We have index accounts that will guarantee your principal.
That it is out of the stock market because it's not considered a security.
It is an insurance-based product with a high, fast motor.
And guess what?
This motor can go from equity.
It can go to treasuries.
It can go to commodities.
It can go...
Completely, completely full-blown equity at any given time.
And it shifts on a day-to-day basis.
Like, how do you know your money is being watched every single day?
Like, we have the solution here at CortezWM.com.
You just gotta go.
We have money managers that watch your money every single day.
Tactically proven.
They've done a study.
This index has yielded over 12.5% over the past 20 years, guys.
With all the fluctuations that we've had, it's yielded over 12.5% over the past 20 years.
Give us a call.
We want to tell you about the Transitions 12 Index.
It is a great index.
It's comprised of only four different asset classes.
Treasuries, when the market's crazy and it's bad, and we don't know what to do with the equity markets.
It's got treasuries.
It's got commodities for you gold lovers and precious metals.
It's got the equity markets, such as the QQQs and SPY. Typically, it's either the NASDAQ, the S&P 500, you're covered in equities right there.
And then when that's doing bad and there's a market collapse, all here in America, now you rush to treasuries and you rush to commodities.
If treasuries are doing bad, commodities are typically high.
That's when the gold prices and the silver prices and cocoa and pork bellies, And corn and wheat and copper, those commodities are doing extremely well when rising interest rates happen.
So when you have these four different assets transitioning every single day, you become successful because now you have an asset manager that's tactically managing these accounts and you don't have to worry about market timing because we're going to do it for you with a very smart overlay.
Oh, and by the way, if they get it mixed up, you pay nothing, you lose nothing, These are great, great, great accounts right now.
So $100,000 for...
Let's just say I put $100,000 into one.
In 10 years, it's projected to be over...
Over $450,000.
If I left that sit for another 10 years, it's projected to be over $4 million.
Just on $100,000 on a 40-year-old.
This is real stuff.
These are real numbers, guys.
And their projections, obviously, past results are not indicative of future results.
If I got regulators listening to me, there you go, you little punks.
I'm not being promissory, but I am saying that this index is very powerful because of how they're able to transition and diversify and tactically get out of the way and take advantage of the markets when it's screaming and also take advantage of the markets when it's going down too.
I finally, finally, finally have an index that is in a safe money category that a client can never get hurt from a market loss.

I'm talking too much.
I get excited.
I gotta pay the bills here.
But before I do, I have a verse for you.
Hebrews 11.6 And without faith, it is impossible to please God.
Because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.
If you've been watching me over the past year, I've always said, spend time with God.
Because without faith, it is impossible to please God.
Don't you want to please God?
Don't you want His blessings?
Don't you want your faith to be rock solid?
Because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
So if you seek his face, he will give you knowledge.
He will give you prosperity.
He will give you treasure stored in heaven.
Like legitimate, he says that.
That is biblical.
How powerful is that?
Like just seek his face and he will reward you.
Like a word from God is basically a miracle.
Like he's going to give you miracles in your life.
All you got to do is seek his face.
Hebrews 11, 6.
I don't know why this message came up, but it's obviously for somebody.
Not for me, but it's for somebody.
And I just thought it was beautiful because it just reminds us of God's promise.
If we just seek his face, he will reward us.
In other scriptures, one of my dad's favorite verses, oh man.
Seek his face and all these things will be added upon you.
So, that's my verse.
I want to encourage you guys with that.
Also, it is a beautiful country when we have the Second Amendment.
This is the glue that holds everything together.
I hope you guys are figuring a way to carry.
I've carried these little suckers.
They're called stickies for a long time.
And guess what?
You've got to get different ones for different guns.
They say they're universal, but they're really not.
But this is my Sig 365.
It's a great, great pistol.
It's got the two walls, like the twin, I think, twin stack is what you call it, 9mm.
However, it's a pain in the butt when I can't wear it.
And what good is the Second Amendment if you're not encouraged to conceal your weapon?
