Music.

0:23

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. What is going on, man? What is going on?

0:30

What's it like? How's it been? Going into the weekend.

0:36

They're a very volatile time in America.

0:40

And honestly, for the world, mostly in the financial markets,

0:44

but eventually that's going to spill over into the regular and what they call Main Street.

0:51

It's wall street and then main street takes a

0:54

minute they used to say that the stock

0:57

market or wall street was the canary in the coal mine meaning if there's going

1:02

to be a recession and there's a lot of people saying there is oh but let me

1:07

let you in on something just because they're having a recession doesn't mean

1:11

you're having a recession so be careful what you let people put in your head.

1:15

So fuck a recession. That's what I say.

1:19

Let's just tweet that. Let's make a shirt. Fuck a recession.

1:22

Other people go on recessions. I do prosperity.

1:25

Even if you get hit by it, fuck it.

1:29

See, most people live and operate inside of their current circumstances.

1:33

You know, what they can see, what they can touch.

1:36

That's what's real to them. But that's bullshit. it. That's not the science of getting rich.

1:44

That has nothing to do with attraction, nothing to do with faith.

1:49

The Bible says that faith is the evidence of things hoped for, hoped for, but not seen.

1:57

Meaning, if you can see it, if you can taste it, if you can touch it,

2:01

if you can hear it, smell it, you don't need faith because you can see it.

2:05

It's right there. Your senses can detect it.

2:08

What we're talking about is something that you can't. And so most people live

2:13

their life inside of the circumstances in which they find themselves.

2:17

If they're born here, that's what they are.

2:20

People like us don't do that. And they may live in an area of poverty and take on a mindset of that area,

2:29

take on a mindset of poverty. And yet, the science of getting rich says, but everywhere we see rich and poor

2:36

living side by side in the same environment and often engaged in the same vocations.

2:43

When two or more people are in the same locality and in the same business and

2:50

one gets rich while the other remains poor,

2:53

it shows that getting rich is not primarily a matter of environment.

2:59

And so everywhere in this world we're going to see rich and poor living side

3:05

by side and while there is this thing of the cosmic roll of the dice meaning

3:11

just random acts things can happen,

3:15

and in those times ideas like gratitude.

3:21

Praying and maybe even trying to line up your own worldview or your own religions

3:26

can, can be difficult because it doesn't make fucking sense.

3:30

You know, make it make sense.

3:32

You know, it just doesn't make sense at times.

3:37

And yet, even with that possibility, that idea that at the end of the day,

3:44

man, life is a trade and some trades work out and some trades don't.

3:49

And that's just how it goes. Being a trader is accepting that risk, accepting the possibility.

3:56

Being a trader isn't about taking a job with benefits. That's not what it's about.

4:01

Being a trader is about being at risk and being okay with the risk.

4:05

Understanding what can happen. Understanding that we learn more through failure,

4:10

which means we have to embrace failure, which means we need risk,

4:14

which means we need losing trades. Next trade.

4:18

Next. Next, next. And the only ones you're going to learn from are the losers.

4:24

So make that make sense. I need losing trades so that I can win.

4:29

Man, what do you do with that? Getting rich is not the result of saving or being thrifty.

4:40

There are very frugal people who are poor.

4:44

I know a bunch of people that clip coupons. They take the cheapest Uber and

4:50

they do everything on the cheap, and yet they don't seem to get richer.

4:54

So in other words, they're clipping and saving to fucking live.

5:01

The only reason, listen, MFG, the only reason you should be flipping,

5:05

the only reason you should be frugal, the only reason you should be even fucking saving,

5:11

is to acquire assets that go up in value or appreciate, produce cash flow.

5:18

There is zero reason to save pieces of paper.

5:22

Except for ultimately those two reasons.

5:25

The reason you will become financially free.

5:30

And then ultimately rich, and then ultimately wealthy, it's not because you were frugal.

5:36

It's not. It's because you woke up with intention.

5:40

Being frugal may be part of the process, part of the plan, right?

5:45

Because we're trying to stack money, trying to stack a bag, right?

5:50

And the nine thoughts on getting rich, number eight is save chunks.

5:57

Save chunks. Chunks of money.

6:00

Now, that doesn't mean you can't save a little each day. If you're like me and

6:04

you earn money every day, everybody should try to earn money every day.

6:07

You could earn money every day if you, almost every day if you were in our second income stream program.

6:13

If you don't know about that, if you go over to petersreport.com,

6:17

flip through, I don't remember what page it's on, but picture me in front of the ocean.

6:21

And that's actually on my porch, by the way.

6:24

I have a porch that you can stand on and look at the ocean.

6:29

Man, oceanfront property is reserved for the mighty So if you're going to buy

6:34

property On the ocean, guess what?

6:38

You need to understand Guess what?

6:41

It may come with troubles But guess what else comes with troubles?

6:46

Just waking up in the fucking morning Being poor has a lot of fucking troubles,

6:51

We're human beings, we don't escape troubles, you just get to pick the type

6:55

of troubles so I'd rather have beach house troubles than my fucking car won't start,

7:01

right I'd rather have HOA problems for my beach house than I need new tires,

7:08

both of those are problems, you choose your problems the often people who are less what do we call it I

7:18

don't want to say less fortunate because I think you're just as fortunate because

7:21

the formula for wealth is time times amount times yield Time times amount times yield.

7:29

And the one we all get is 24 fucking hours in a day. Same for you, same for me.

7:36

It's what do you do with them?

7:38

It is what do you put your mind on?

7:41

Okay, so there's a big fucking difference between earning money and wasting and spending money.

7:50

So if you got one guy over here who spends two hours, you know,

7:54

I started buying properties using mowing yards, guys.

7:58

I got friends that are broke pay somebody to mow their yard I couldn't do that

8:03

I didn't make enough money to pay someone to mow my god damn yard I'm broke,

8:07

so that means I got a lawnmower which means I can go next door,

8:11

hey what's up man my name is Gerald Peters I believe that anybody same thing

8:17

same thing I do on this podcast what am I doing on the podcast right now,

8:21

hey listen up. Listen up what am I doing spreading the gospel of the money flow What am I doing?

8:29

Really what I'm trying to do is sell people back to themselves.

8:32

To sell people on this idea that money, all money, all money comes from other people.

8:40

Money is a life force and a life force comes through other people.

8:46

See, the truth is, other people have everything that we need. We have only to ask them.

8:54

Hello, sir Hello, ma'am We have only to ask,

9:00

Bible says ask and you shall receive He didn't say beg like a little bitch crying,

9:06

He said ask Stand on your own two feet.

9:11

Be a queen of your own world, of your own empire.

9:16

Being a king or queen doesn't mean you're special. It doesn't mean that you

9:21

know you're smarter than other people, that you have some sort of unusual intellect,

9:26

that you have some skill. I mean, you might have a skill, and we know that money works.

9:33

There's four stages to the progression of money. Most people start out working

9:37

per hour, and then you can develop a skill or some sort of service.

9:42

And then number three, you can create a business which is products, right?

9:45

And so you can leverage yourself through that. And number four,

9:48

which I do a lot is with money.

9:51

Money makes money. So I do number three and number four and that's how you progress.

9:55

But if you stay in the per fucking hour, never figuring out how to leverage

10:00

yourself, never figuring out how to push your intent into the universe,

10:04

then you're not gonna see that money comes from other people.

10:07

You're not going to see that money is everywhere and it's unlimited.

10:10

You're going to see your circumstances and you're going to be limited by them.

10:15

And you're not going to be able to be grateful when bad things happen because

10:21

you're going to see life as it is right now.

10:24

In this situation, instead of seeing pillar number 10,

10:30

take full responsibility and realizing that you are where you are because of

10:35

the thoughts that you've held for the last five years or less, three years ago.

10:42

You got more money in the stock market because three fucking years ago,

10:45

I knocked on your door and said, hey.

10:48

And for some reason you listened or someone you listened to.

10:53

Some boys spoke to you and you thought about it.

10:58

That's where money comes from. It starts as a thought. In some person's mind.

11:03

We combine that with intention and thinking, substance.

11:09

We get what we get and we have what we have and we are where we are.

11:14

That's why the 7% run this country and the 93% produce the cash flow and the

11:23

interest payments and the bond payments and they pay the dividends through their

11:28

financing because they live a life of self-consumption.

11:33

They live a life of just getting by. They live a life of the here and now Not saving,

11:41

It's through that process That concept of the genie of your tongue Be careful

11:47

what you listen to Be careful who you let in your head You may have been with us inside of the MFG,

11:55

Maybe for a while you listened to my voice And then, you know, hey,

11:58

Life hit that cosmic roll of the dice Or maybe, maybe you just drifted away

12:03

Maybe I said something you didn't like and see here's the thing I'm just a person

12:07

man now the message inside of me is bigger than me,

12:10

and the push to do it is I don't know why so I gotta assume that has something

12:15

else to do outside of me man cause sometimes I don't even wanna fucking do it,

12:20

yet I get up to do it. I think the reason why is that I know the truth that 1% or less will actually

12:28

ever make financially into independence.

12:31

And right now I'm getting goosebumps as I say it, God damn it.

12:35

1% or fucking less. Listen to that.

12:38

1% or less. That means all these people who are advising you,

12:43

these bankers and these insurance people and these salesmen and the moms and

12:47

the dads and the brothers and the fucking lawyers and the politicians, guess what?

12:53

They're in that 99%. They're not all getting in on the 1%, which means you're listening to the fucking

13:01

losers most of the time, people who've given up on it.

13:06

And they'll try to explain it to you and justify it to you and sell it to you as good benefits.

13:14

Yeah, that works for the matrix. It don't work for me.

13:18

It don't work for the 7%. 7% are trying to become the 1%. See,

13:25

now the 7% are the working rich. But of that 7, only one make financial independence. And here's the thing.

13:34

That number is different for everyone.

13:37

Less than 1% actually make financial independence. So that means 99% of people

13:41

are living in a delusion. And if you ask them what they're going to do, if you gave them $10 million,

13:48

what would they do with their life? if I guarantee within seconds or minutes,

13:54

two to eight million of that would be spent. Not on things that produce cashflow and increase in value.

14:00

It would be spent from the heart. It would be buying the things they already buy that already waste their time

14:07

and already waste their goddamn money. At the end of the day, you trade your beliefs. At the end of the day,

14:15

you live and operate inside of your core values.

14:21

Man, now imagine if you believe that other people have everything you need.

14:26

If you believe that other people are your source, you're my source,

14:28

by the way. I believe in you. Believe in me. If you believe that is true, imagine if you believed it.

14:37

Conditionally, unwavering, total belief. You were sold the fuck out.

14:43

There is no other option. There is no other belief.

14:47

And that's how I live. And sometimes that makes you an asshole because you just

14:52

shut down their shit immediately. Unwavering. If you believe that other people are your source and the life force

15:02

of all of the universe, then the universe is sympathetic to your plans.

15:09

See your mission is your calling in life and

15:11

for some of you the universe wants you to spread your

15:14

art because it's beautiful and for

15:17

some of you it wants you to get the rest of us in

15:20

shape because we've been sitting on the fucking couch too long

15:23

and i need you to tell me to get up and do something and i might need you to

15:27

show me what to do and you're doing the work for the universe and some of you

15:31

get up and put on scrubs and go into a hospital and some of you put on a fucking

15:36

pistol and get in a car and go around and try to regulate these fucking savages

15:40

that live in our country. Some people go in and teach our children. But here's what I want you to know.

15:47

The universe is friendly to your plans and I don't give a fuck who you are.

15:51

I don't care what age you are, what race you are, the sexual orientation you

15:56

are, or what your current financial situation is right now. You can do more

16:00

and be more and have more and become more.
