Scriptures And Wallstreet: Biden Approves AI In Our 401(k)
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
Thank you.
Thank you.
Hey guys, my name is Carlos Cortez.
I'm a host and founder of Scriptures in Wall Street.
We started this podcast about two years ago, and our whole emphasis is really to talk about retirement planning with the biblical emphasis that it doesn't matter what you do with your retirement, your relationship with Christ is number one.
So that's why this podcast is called Scriptures in Wall Street.
We feel that we can bring light to a dark place.
That is the whole premises of this show.
And the reason why I'm talking like this is because we're getting a lot of new listeners on our new channel.
We're getting a lot of people from just random rumble.
And so, for those of you that don't know me, I've been doing this for a long, long time.
Almost 20 years now as a retirement planner.
I am securities licensed.
Everything I say on this podcast is not financial advice or investment advice, and you need to seek a licensed professional.
However, we will give you financial advice if you would give us a call, 813-448-3446.
Again, 813-448-3446.
Or simply visit us at CortezWM.com for the month of January while supplies do last.
I am giving away, for all of our appointments, anyone that schedules a consultation with myself, Dustin, or Josh, we're giving away a free book that I just wrote January 1st.
It was published.
And we're really excited about this book called America First Retirement Plan.
Basically, it's all of our nuts and bolts in a 90-page book.
I think it's about a 90-page book.
Let me double-check.
But it's a short read.
Yeah, it's about...
82 pages.
So very thin, hardback book.
And I'm just excited that we have a book.
And we talk about our process, why people's money isn't safe, why people are not getting a consistent rate of return, why the fees aren't transparent, and more importantly, their investments are not being held in America, and they're investing in ESGs and communist countries like China.
And the fifth problem, obviously, is that there is no ethical component on Wall Street.
I mean, you have an advisor that probably believes in a vaccine, that maybe believes in child general utilization.
Maybe they voted for Biden and you're a complete conservative and you don't understand Bidenomics, nor do you want to.
There's a lot of things that go wrong.
So if the captain of your ship is not spiritually, politically and socially aligned with you, what in the he bejeezes is he doing or she doing to guide your retirement?
So we don't want to support this woke agenda.
And look, I've been cancelled, I've been sued, I've been, you name it, I've been thrown in the gutter by my colleagues, I've been thrown on the internet, Gold Hat, Ass Hat, all these crazy names.
But at the end of the day, I'm literally the dawn of all this.
I've started this whole movement of bringing godly, godly men to Wall Street and creating an environment where clients can succeed spiritually, connect with Christ, and still have the ability to have returns and to be okay, to have values-based investing, to put the cross first in their money.
And we all need money to retire.
We all need money to survive.
So what do we do with our banks?
What do we do with real estate?
What do we do with our 401ks and our retirement?
Well, we talk about all these things on our podcast.
And I'm not perfect.
I'm not perfect.
I'm figuring this out with my close to 20 years experience as an independent advisor.
I'm not perfect.
I do make mistakes.
Heck, just in 2020, I recommended a Bitcoin fund that went belly up and I've been sued 28 times.
28 complaints.
You can look it up.
It's public records.
I've been shot at legally like you wouldn't believe.
I've been broken down spiritually.
I feel that we all go through our journeys in life and we make mistakes so that God gives us another chance so we can heal ourselves, that we can fix ourselves, Purify ourselves with His Holy Spirit, with His conviction and discernment, and we can learn from it.
Everything happens for you, not to you, type of mentality.
So all the pain that you've had in your life is for the greater good, has made you stronger.
You've never met anybody that has grown from the couch.
Everything requires pain.
Growth requires pain.
And so I've been through that pain and all I want to do is share the light, share my message, share my story, share my experience, let you know what's good, what's bad, what's ugly, what's okay, my opinion on it.
Do keep in mind this is for educational and investment purposes only.
Now with that being said, I wanted to have a serious conversation about something very, very, very stinking disturbing.
So as I read on my phone, my laptop, And my brain juices start flowing.
Holy smokes.
So...
Okay.
Truth bomb.
Drop the mic.
Oh, man.
You guys know...
You know what?
I didn't light my candle.
I like lighting candles.
They smell amazing.
One sec.
And they...
I don't know.
For some weird reason, they help me think.
They soothe me.
So...
What I would say is that your 401k you don't own.
You don't own your 401k.
When you log online to your 401k provider, you'll see things like a participant ID. You'll see things like participant services.
But you'll never see anything that says account ownership.
Why is that?
Why is that?
You see, as you break down the 401k, you're actually buying a contract with ERISA. ERISA, I believe it stands for Employee Retirement Income Securities Act.
And ERISA is a division and a law-abiding association that is ran by the DOL, the Department of Labor.
It is the federal government.
So your 401k is actually a part of a government-controlled entity.
And this is why you are a participant.
You actually don't own it.
If you don't believe me, call your 401k provider.
Stop what you're doing.
Call them right now.
Some of them are open on Saturdays, if you're seeing this on Saturday.
Or late evenings, if you're watching the late evening.
Or call in the morning, or your lunch break, and you'll find out.
Ask if you can take money out.
Withdraw it.
No hardships, no nothing.
Just ask if you can just take money out.
And they will use terms like, well, you're going to have to borrow and plan administrator and 59 and a half rule and you can't do that.
And I'm sorry, Mr.
Client, you don't have access to your funds.
You would have to quit your job.
The reason why you have to quit your job because you're no longer participating in an employee-sponsored program.
You have to be an employee-sponsored To have that sponsorship of a match or whatever benefit, the 401k is a benefit.
And so what I'm getting at is you are participating in a beneficiary account.
Just like your checking account, when you put money in the bank, you don't own the money in your bank.
Go ahead and call your bank while you're at it and ask, hey, can I get my account adoption agreement?
Can I get whatever paperwork I sign to open up that checking account?
And you will see that they will put They would put restrictions on how much you can take out, even to the point of how you behave.
If you don't behave right, they will freeze your account.
And then you have to hire your own attorney at your expense to take your money out.
They could say, hey, this is all considered a large cash withdrawal.
We don't have these funds available.
And we do know that's true because they only have access to 1-3% of your money in liquidity to claim FDIC insurance.
So FDIC insurance, just so you know, they only require 1-3% of your money in reserves.
This is why when you take 10-20 or even 100 grand out, they start to squimmer in their seat.
They start to shake and say, hey, we have CDs that you can invest in.
And CDs, Certificate of Disappointments or Certificate of Depreciations, Or certificate of depression, right?
Whatever you want to call it, certified knucklehead deposits, they take your money and they send it elsewhere.
And they give you peanuts.
Banks are in the business of loaning your money out.
They don't have to keep it in-house.
I'm telling you guys, the banks are not safe.
And with the commercial real estate crisis looming, I've already told you that we've had $325 million that Blackstone has.
My last podcast, $325 million.
They've defaulted in the Hughes Center in Vegas.
They already defaulted on $483 million property in LA, in LAX, the Playa office, right on the beach there.
$483 million.
Another $274 million in hotels called the Club Quarters Hotel, which is spread out between Philly, Boston, and San Fran.
Guys, they are, by design, the largest alternative manager when it comes to real estate, commercial real estate.
Blackstone has literally defaulted.
By design.
And now they're building a fund that is predominantly in cash right now to buy single-family homes.
So what are they predicting?
Hello?
Real estate crash and then they're going to sweep up all those single family homes.
All those people that bought Airbnbs that are not making money because of high interest rates right now.
They're going to sweep all those puppies up, man.
And the Klaus Schwab movement was you will die and you will own nothing and you will be happy.
That's what they want to do.
That's the government's aim behind all this.
I've said it before.
The pinnacle, their mission statement is to track, trace, and control you.
How manipulative is that?
Now you've got Obama's creating movies about what they're freaking going to do with a cyber attack.
How disgusting is the cultic symbolism is that?
How disgusting is that?
How disgusting is these people are trying to demasculate a man?
I read that Jennifer Lawrence is now playing Jesus.
So they're going to make Jesus a female.
Complete blasphemy.
Like this is the generation that we're in.
And you can't get upset if you're funding this garbage.
Like, you can't have a blind eye.
Yeah, 10 years ago, you used to say, hey, you know, I'm in my 401k.
There's nothing I can do about it.
I get it.
You're in a 401k.
There's nothing you can do about it, but you can give us a call.
You can get a second opinion.
There's ways to get out of it.
You just got to give us a call.
Give us a call, and we'll help you.
If you need a 401k, 401khelpusa.com, that's what we do.
We can actually give you advice on your 401k, and you don't even have to leave your employer.
So there's that service.
But now, if you have your own self-directed IRA with Morgan Stanley, Charles Schwab, or Fidelity, Merrill Lynch, Edward Jones, Ameriprise, give us a call.
Give us the opportunity.
To see what we can offer.
To now de-escalate all the sinful things that you're investing in.
That's only if you're convicted.
Hey, if you're okay making 20, 30, 40% off the backs of Americans and slaying babies and supporting butt pirates or LGBT promotion, whatever you're okay with, because you're making a dollar...
If that's you, then don't give us a call.
We're not a good fit.
We're a good fit if you actually give a damn about what you're supporting.
That you can look God in the face.
No human being can do that, but one day you can look God in the face.
One day.
If He allows you to.
Or you can look up, or you can try to look up to God.
He's so bright.
And say, you know, I did...
I did my best.
I did my best.
I did what I could.
We want to help you have that conversation.
We want to be that steward to help you.
Now many, many people would rather have their returns.
I get it.
NVIDIA is up 200%.
Heck, we got a just now, just today...
On the 13th of January, we had a VIX trader.
You guys know what the VIX is.
I've been talking about it for the past year.
Pay attention to the VIX. He bought call options on $17 strike price.
So that means if it hits $17 and he dropped $16.9 million, close to $17 million on these call options.
So he would lose $17 million in this portfolio.
If the VIX doesn't go to 17.
Now the VIX goes up regardless if the market goes up or down.
Basically that bet says that it's not going to be this low.
The volatility is not going to be the calm storm like it's been this quarter.
So he is predicting that in the next quarter we're going to see some wild, wild, wild volatility.
And I'll be way over 17.
So, for any monies over 17, that guy is collecting the farm.
Like, he is killing it.
Like, he's going to probably make hundreds of millions of dollars, if not a billion dollars, depending on how volatility the market is.
I don't think it's a bad bet.
So, he bought a cover call on that, and that's incredible.
Maybe he was watching scriptures on Wall Street.
I don't know.
But we have the scanner, and I've told you about the Golden Cross, the Death Cross is on the VIX. I've told you about the VIX. Anytime it gets lower than 13, watch out.
That's the calm before the storm.
It will pop up, man.
It will pop up every time it goes down that level.
It guarantees that there's going to be more volatility.
And that's just the bottom line, guys, is that You buy low and sell high, but it's the same thing with price action on stocks.
As soon as it hits that all-time low, it will dry.
It hits that support level.
It's like a rubber band.
That support level is that rubber band.
Once it hits it, boom, elasticity snaps it back to resistance.
And it's constantly doing this number.
And that's how we get a trading range.
And once we have that trading range, we can figure out the average trading range.
And when it's out of it, then we have moving averages.
We have scochastics.
We have all these tools, Bollinger Bands.
We have death crosses.
We have golden crosses.
We can look at all these technical analysis.
On top of that, we have AI. We can help you determine what's the best equity or the best position or what the market's doing based on our AI metrics.
There's a lot of tools that we have access to that most advisors don't because they're like freaking Jehovah Witnesses.
They're not allowed to even read their own Bible and have the interpretation.
That's how the financial advisor game is.
If you have a financial advisor and they work for a big conglomerate, they can't even tell you anything without getting approval from their compliance officer.
They don't want to say anything to misrepresent their firm because their firm has to be all unified.
They have to look the same, dress the same, say the same thing like robots, and hope for the best.
Hope the market recuperates and tolerates.
So, I wanted to share how scary...
I got off on a tangent there.
I wanted to basically just share artificial intelligence hits 401ks.
I was reading many articles on artificial intelligence...
I got curious.
We have this bot on our website.
For anyone that contacts us, this little bot can set an appointment.
It's more of a service thing for our website.
If you go in, 24-7, there's someone that you can talk to.
They can set up a call.
It's pretty amazing, this technology.
Then I started Reading up on this, and then I said, you know what?
Where does this show up in our retirements?
And let me tell you, there are 401k companies that are adopting AI in your investment selections.
So now, we have robo-advisors in your 401k telling you, based on your metrics, on what you should be invested in.
How does that make you feel?
How does that make you feel that the government has access to AI? And by the way, go on...
Oh man, I just had it.
I'll send it in to you guys so you can see it.
It's on thewhighhouse.gov.
And basically...
There's an executive order on White House, in the White House, based on the trustworthiness.
Executive order on the safe, secure, trustworthy development and use of artificial intelligence.
By the authority vested in me as the President of the Constitution of the Laws of the United States of America, I hereby order as follows.
Section 1, purpose.
Our AI holds extraordinary potential for both promise and peril.
Responsible AI use has the potential to help solve urgent challenges while making our world more prosperous, productive, innovative, and secure.
At the same time, irresponsible use could exacerbate societal harm such as fraud, discrimination, bias, disinformation, displace, and disempowerment workers, stifle competitions, and pose risks to national security.
Harnessing AI for good and realizing its merit and benefits requires mitigating and substantial risks.
This endeavor demands a society-wide effort that includes government, the private sector, academia, and civil society.
My admin places the highest urgency in governing development and the use of AI safely and responsibly.
Therefore, advancing and coordinated with the federal government, a wide approach to doing so.
The rapid speed at which AI capabilities are advancing compels the United States to lead in this moment for the sake of our security economy and society.
At the end, AI reflects the principles of the people who built it, the people who use it, blah, blah, blah.
Policies and principles.
So AI must be safe and secure, meaning the goal requires robust, reliable, repeatable, and standardized evaluations of AI systems, as well as policies, institutions, Appropriate other mechanisms to test, understand, and mitigate risk from these systems before they are put to use.
It also requires addressing AI systems' most pressing security risk, including with respect to biotechnology, cybersecurity, critical infrastructure, and other national security dangers.
As I'm reading this, it gets scarier and scarier.
My admin will seek to adapt job training and education to support a diverse workforce.
Meaning, we're going to get rid of all the white people and only put black and Latinos in because white people are oppressed or are oppressing.
And we're also going to lessen market competition.
Oh man.
God, literally help me say saying because I'm about to cuss and rage right now.
Introduce new health and safety risk or cause harmful labor force disruptions.
This critical next steps in AI development should be built on the views of workers, labor unions, educators, employers.
Guys, this thing is disgusting, man.
I like...
Oh man.
Can I be real with you guys?
I want to punch this bastard in the face.
Like...
Doesn't he make you violent?
And you know this verse of...
Love your neighbor...
Like, you love yourself.
I'm really, really sinner right now.
Like, I can't do that right now.
When I read this stuff, I have a hard time with that verse.
I'm just being transparent with you guys.
Judge me, whatever you want to call.
Call me a sinner.
Call me whatever you want, but I'm being real.
That guy just triggers me.
I just...
Okay.
I say that because...
We're screwed.
No, I say that because AI is here.
AI has already been controlling your money.
But now they have an executive order that was written last year in October, so it's not new.
But what they're doing is, in this hyper-digitization world, they're already creating this constitution.
You guys remember that executive order that they wrote on the banks?
And with crypto, this goes in with the crypto space.
Like, they can't control Bitcoin.
And this is why I'm a fan of Bitcoin.
They can't control it.
The way you control any currency is you can mess around with inflation.
You can print money.
Those are two ways.
But you can't control Bitcoin.
You can't control Bitcoin.
What they do is they simply...
With any currency, how they manipulate it is they rise interest rates, they manipulate the interest rates, and they jack around with inflation.
Or they print money, and print money, and print money, and you can control any currency.
But you can't do that with Bitcoin because it's a set code.
It's a set amount of fabricating through the blockchain.
That are available, readily available, and that availability dwindles every four years.
So the blockchain produces X amount of Bitcoin, and then eventually what happens, every four years there's a halving until there's none left.
So as the decades surpass, you'll see the cost of Bitcoin rise just for scarcity purposes only.
Maybe there's something that comes along that's better.
Maybe there's an altcoin that's going to do better.
But right now, Bitcoin has been a don, has been the OG, has been the original gangster.
It's been the stablecoin, the pioneer.
I don't see the government Affecting that.
It's decentralized.
But what they've done is they said to the banks, hey, if you want to set Bitcoin, you have to have KYC. We want our taxes on it because we know this asset is going bonkers.
And they will start taxing you on it.
This is why the returns are asking about crypto accounts and Cayman Islands and all these capital gains that are associated with it.
So be on the lookout of more politics in the crypto space, in the Bitcoin space, the digital asset space, because they're losing grip on it, you guys.
And so there is a whole other movement, which I'll be talking about as I dig deep.
I'm in several crypto masterminds.
I'll be talking about some things in the decentralized DeFi space, where there's really not a lot of know your customer.
Where the government can't go in and you literally are free and independent of the government.
They can't control it at all.
And the bank, it's not in the bank.
And you can make money just by providing liquidity to the markets.
So very interesting topic that I am dying, dying to free up some time so I can teach it.
I'm grasping it.
It's taken me hours and hours to educate.
But I'm in a mastermind that's going to help me speed the curve here.
But I wanted just to talk about the 401k with AI. So how dangerous is this?
Is that the AI can say, all right, we're going to...
I mean, and it's all up to your head.
Like, how far could this go?
And do you trust the government with this software, with this technology?
Like, they have AI, artificial intelligence, that can help you choose investments.
Now they can program the AI and say, you know what, we want 20% of all 401ks in the whole country to invest in ESG. And out of that 20%, we believe in equal rights.
So out of that 20%, another 5% to equal rights, 5% to Black Lives Matter, another 5% to opening the border or banning legislation on the border, another 5% to just killing babies, women's rights.
Equal choice.
Or maybe just 1% of $30 trillion to supporting a vaccine that will be safe, secure, and efficient.
I mean, you see where they can go with this.
Now we got artificial intelligence controlling 401ks.
And Biden, stupid face Biden, has written this into law.
And all this garbage about AI and law, all it is is them saying the same daggone stinking freaking words of safe and effective.
They said it with the jab.
They said it with FedNow.
Now they're saying it with AI and 401Ks.
Safe and effective.
Guys, you know what the truth is, yo.
Safe and effective is bull.
It's baloney.
It's not real.
It's not real.
It's the complete opposite.
It's dangerous and detrimental is what they mean.
And that's how we view it as patriots, right?
This is what I talked about in my book.
I'm just sick of it, man.
Like, what they're doing.
So, more important, and I know I'm preaching to the choir here, But for those of you that are new, and for those of you who have been listening to me for two years now, I may sound redundant, but I'm doing my financial altar call here.
This is why I believe in a covenant process.
This is why I believe in a color of money.
This is why I believe in insurance contracts.
Having the ability to diversify.
Hey, we're going to put money away from retirement, out of the realm, out of the hands of the government, controlling, tracking, and tracing.
We understand that our banks are being tracked and controlled if they're FDIC, so we're going to move that to an NCUA, National Credit Union.
Union Association, which is like the FDIC, but for credit unions.
And they're state chartered, mostly.
So state chartered, they run a tighter ship.
And you want to find a bank that doesn't really overdo it in the commercial loan space, which they're out there.
You've got to dig deep.
State chartered banks, just look locally.
And having a banking system that is not of this big region or a regional system, That is associated with this commercial real estate crisis that is happening right now as we speak.
We'll put you in a better situation.
So we have stock portfolios that have AI, but we control the AI. We use the AI for predictability because you have to fight fire with fire.
You can't just go to a gunfight with a knife and a sword and say, all right, baby, let's do this.
No, you got to fight AI with AI. And whoever has the smartest AI typically wins.
But the problem with AI has no ethics.
It has no...
Like, all they want is you tell the robot, hey, I want this, this, and that, and I'll scan for that.
But our AI, we can scan for ethics.
We can scan for things that don't really suit what we believe in.
And so what I'm getting at is that having a covenant process, having money set aside for safe money, Many of you have called my office.
Hey, I retired and I got $600,000.
I don't know what to do with this money.
Well, we're not going to put it in precious metals, guys, because precious metals is traded by the same people you are trying to avoid.
Guess who owns the Chicago Board of Exchange, which is 100% the same people that are manipulating the stock market?
It's in the Chicago Merchandise Exchange.
Like, that's what trades the price of gold and silver.
It is not insurance on your money.
In 2022, precious metals went down and the stock market went down.
It is not a guarantee that your precious metals is going to go up on a financial reset.
But if you have an insurance contract, an insurance contract says...
General terms, common sense, you're supposed to replace it with equal or greater value.
When you get in a car accident or the Hurricane Maria comes back and blows your roof off, you expect your insurance company to replace it with equal or greater value.
Well, what if the currency is a digital dollar?
What if it's gold?
What if it's rupee?
What if it's I don't know.
Pokemon cards.
Whatever the circulation is, the insurance company has to financially do the reset and send it back to you with equal or greater value in whatever currency it is.
That's what we expect when we have insurance on our money.
So we get the question, well, what's a contract going to do with a financial reset, Carlos?
Well, I throw it back at you.
What is a financial reset going to do with your precious metals?
How do you know they're going to go up?
Look, I'm not bashing gold and silver.
I'm just saying don't put all your stinking money in one pot.
You've got to have diversity.
You've got to have liquidity.
You've got to have money set for retirement that you're never going to touch in 5, 10, 20 years whenever that retirement date is.
And then you have your precious metals that you're okay liquidating here and there.
And maybe it's just an investment that will go from $100,000 to $300,000.
But if not, then you have two other pots of money that you can play with.
And so this is our covenant process.
And we've gotten very, very good.
Right now, in our green money insured space, depending on your state, we can get you a 19% all the way up to 25% bonus, depending how long of agreement you want.
Overnight, so $100,000 is now $119,000.
As long as you're okay having access to 10% a year, that money will double within 5-7 years.
For those of you that have lost money to the bond market, Last year, we can completely help you and get you an ARP asset recovery plan where you can literally break even just by sending money to an institution and securing your retirement, having principal protection with an A-rated company that loves God, that loves the cross, and doesn't force vaccinate their employees.
Oh, and by the way, they're employee-owned, so they're not going to sell out to China like a lot of these companies do.
They sell out to China.
We don't want to do that.
If that's you, give us a call.
We want to make sure it's the right fit.
We're not a right fit for everybody, especially if you're a Democrat.
But we are not a right fit.
813-448-3446 813-448-3446 Or click the link below and schedule a conversation.
If you do, I'll send you a book.
This book will be in the mail as soon as I can get an envelope and stamp and have Cindy send it in the mail.
No cost to you.
Just book an appointment with us.
If you're a current client, just email me.
I'll send one out to you.
But be on the lookout for the AI technology in your 401k.
And if you don't know, you can call your 401k provider and just ask them, how is AI in my 401k and what are you doing to protect my money from the government?
Just ask them.
You are going to get so many, I don't know what you're talking about, answers.
But if you don't know, give me a call and I'll ask for them.
Me or my consultants will ask your 401k provider, what is it with AI? And how is it affecting your portfolio?
By law, you're supposed to tell me what's going on with my money.
But unfortunately, they don't even know what's going on with your money.
You are a participant.
You're not an account owner.
And they're not very transparent.
And you can even ask them, what are my fees?
And I guarantee you that they're going to give you the runaround.
Because this is not transparent.
So guys, I just want to leave you with this.
That you've got to be careful with the AIs.
The covenant process is going to be a secret component of our success in 2024.
You want to have that retirement bucket, long-term bucket.
Either it's 5, 10, 15 years, however long it is.
And then you want to have a liquidity bucket where we can manage it.
We can get in and out of the market.
We can take advantage of the manipulations in the market.
And then you want a bucket for liquidity or even precious metals where, God forbid, there is a financial reset.
And you need run for the hills money.
But don't expect your precious metals to triple or quadruple.
Precious metals is not a retirement plan, guys.
It's just an investment.
And it's manipulated by the big banks.
You don't think the banks know that if the stock market crashes and there is a financial reset, where are they going to go?
Well, they know that if they scare you into thinking that is true, they can rug pull the pricing on it, suppress it, and you never make money.
Remember, the market, you have to be a winner or a loser.
And if you're a loser, you're giving the money to them.
And so they know how to manipulate this.
And not to mention, JPMorgan Chase sent two guys to federal prison for spoofing.
They're serving 25 year sentences right now as we speak.
You can look it up.
Spoofing JPMorgan Chase.
It is the most disgusting, traded, manipulated market out there.
And this is not where you need to put your retirement.
Because you have banks like this that know how you think and they can just rug pull you like a Ponzi in the crypto space.
So we want to avoid that.
We want to have safe, security, reliable contracts that are protecting your money with insurance and have liquidity if the market goes up.
Because we know when it does and we know when it doesn't.
And we know when to get out.
And we have a proven track record.
Thank you.
Thank you.
You need to have the ability for both liquidity and growth, but also safety, contractual safety and growth from financial resets, from market declines, from creditors.
And this is a massive approach that we can offer you that the bigger banks are not doing for their employees because they only play in one lane.
And so if that's you, if this resonated with you, give us a call, 813-448-3446.
I promise I won't waste your time if you don't waste my time.
And we will want to help you and give you the best advice we possibly can.
With that being said, guys, I want to share a very awesome scripture.
So, I haven't shared my testimony in over two years.
I'm waiting for the right time to really talk about it because it's very emotional for me.
But one of the scriptures that literally has helped me survive is Isaiah 41.
You guys know this, Isaiah 41.10.
So do not fear, for I am with you.
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will uphold you with my righteous hand.
I'll repeat it, Isaiah 41.10.
So do not fear, for I am with you.
Do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will uphold you with my righteous hand.
Guys, we love to entertain fear and anxiety and stress.
And I'm guilty of that.
I'm totally guilty of that.
But let us not forget that God takes care of His people.
And when I say His people, not all people, His people.
You can't be living in sin and expecting God to take care of you.
It's the truth.
If you're gambling and fornicating and cheating on your wife and you're praying to God for blessings, where else does that show up?
If you're cheating your boss or lying to yourself and lying to your family, you can't expect God to bless you.
If you're in the wrong and you're sinning, you can't expect God to bless you.
But my question to you is, Are you going to humble yourself or are you going to let God humble you?
The only way to humble yourself is to knee down and confess that you're a sinner and that you need a savior in your life and his name is Jesus Christ.
That is the only way.
Ever since I've been bold about my faith, my business has grown.
My health has been amazing.
Reverse diabetes.
I've lost weight.
My marriage has been stronger, even after my infidelity issues.
My relationship with my children have been amazing.
I haven't had a sip of alcohol since March 14th of 2022.
When I worship God, it comes from the soul, and it's therapeutic, man.
It is therapeutic.
I can open up my Bible and literally have a direct connection with God.
I'm ready to kick somebody's ass if they come and try to mess with my family.
I'm ready to lay my life down for my family.
I'm ready to do whatever it takes.
I'm a warrior.
I'm a fighter.
I'm a priesthood of this home.
And no person will ever take that away from me.
No client, no person, no government, no nothing.
And we need more masculinity in this country because this year is the year where masculinity is going to get attacked.
Laziness will supersede everything.
Comfort will be the drug of 2024.
People will seek comfort emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
And it will weaken the man.
Pain is good.
And so yesterday was National Quitters Day.
January 12th, National Quitters Day.
Basically, you give up on your New Year's resolution by the 12th of January.
But being a priesthood, being a man of your home, it's an everyday job.
It's a lifestyle.
We don't quit.
We don't quit.
So it's time to shape up, man.
For you men out there, it's time to shape up.
Quit talking about how much money you've made.
Quit talking about how many girls you sexed up.
Quit talking about what watches you have, what cars you have.
There is no U-Haul on a hearse.
You can't take that garbage with you.
And every corpse on Mount Everest was once motivated.
It was the people that were disciplined, that planned, that had The fortitude and discipline and character to plan that made it to Mount Everest and back down.
I challenge you to pick up your Bible every day.
I challenge you to have that relationship with God because anything about the news, anything about the money and Blackstone and drawdowns and VIX and retirement and taxation and how long is my money going to last and oh my god what bank is going to belly up all that is hogwash dude.
If you don't have your relationship right, look, there's faith, there's family, there's fitness, and there's your finances.
Your money's the last on the totem pole on those four pillars.
And don't get me wrong, those four pillars are equally important, but the faith one is what straightens everything.
Guys, I'm out of here.
