Chapter 1: Where is this podcast recorded?
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Money Mondays. Our podcast is taking place right here inside of an RV motorhome at the Wild Jungle. We have over 209 animals here at the ranch in Temecula, California. We are not open to the public. However, we are taking care of these animals, spending a lot of money to feed them because they're always hungry. So you might hear some of them.
yelling in the background no matter how fast we feed them they want to eat again over and over and over 24 hours a day they're always hungry hungry hippos we don't have any hippos but we do have zebras zorses camels ostriches and all things in between that we'd like to rescue here with the real tarzan however the real tarzan is not sitting next to me because he's out there roaming around africa making a lot of content he has over 200 million views a month but right now he has 284 million views this week making content out there
And so he's going to finish up his journey, then fly back out here and you will see him on a future episode quite soon. Or depending on when this episode came out, he might have seen him on the last week's episode. That's the beauty of this podcast is we do it inside of RV Motorhome to make it fluid.
We make it so that we can show up to a celebrity, entertainer, business person, athlete's home, their office, their gym, et cetera, to make it easy for them to do an episode. So we don't have to schedule it out months and months in advance.
Chapter 2: How does the podcast stay at the top of the charts?
And so by doing that, we've been able to keep our podcast in the top three in both entrepreneur category and the business category for over a year and a half now. And we've been staying in the top 50 to 70 of all podcasts on the planet. So I really appreciate you guys sharing, liking, commenting, subscribing. All those things help a lot.
When you see clips of this, forward it to your friends or share it. When you see an episode that you like. forward it to your friends or share it. Those simple little things of you sharing on your Instagram stories or you're tweeting or Facebooking, et cetera, sharing the podcast does help us a lot with the rankings because we're obviously in a war out there in the ranking system with podcasts.
There is an algorithm we're constantly fighting with. And so we've been able to stay in the top three for the last year and a half. We want to keep it going, staying at the top of the charts because it helps us spread the message. If you notice, I'm not sitting here reading ads to you guys. I've built this podcast on our backs.
And I've done it in such a way so that you guys can listen to it in 40 minutes or less. And we have a very high listen-through rate because of it, which helps us with the rankings as well. And so I just appreciate you guys. If you can, like, comment, subscribe, share, etc. You can also visit us at themoneymondays.com. The moneymondays.com has a cool overview. Every Monday at 4 p.m.
PST, I actually go live where I teach for 40 minutes and I do a Q&A with the audience members, the people that are part of that moneymondays.com Zoom call. So if you can go check out the website, share the website, share the social media, share the clips, et cetera. All those things help. All right, so this is going to be a short format episode.

Chapter 3: Why should you reconsider day trading?
This one will be even shorter than that. I'm going to cover one topic, the stock market. So let's dive in to all things stock related. Now, just to be clear, I don't do day trading and I don't recommend anyone do day trading unless you dive deep, deep, deep, deep, deep down the rabbit hole of studying, researching everything and learn from experts about day trading.
And even then, it is a tough market because you've got to put a lot of time, energy, and focus into it. And you are up against major, major organizations. And if you ever watch the show Billions, there's something called quants. You hear about quants all the time.
Those are just super wizards that are behind the screens morning, noon, and night thinking about every little angle, every little detail of every little dollar. And so I don't recommend day trading unless, again, you're a super expert and learn everything. And even then, there's some roller coasters that come along, obviously, because the stock market can be volatile.
However, and by the way, you can listen to the episode with Timothy Sykes. He's been teaching about stock trading for years. There's people out there that are good at teaching it. But Timothy has obviously been one of the legends in the game teaching about stock trading. But ultimately.
What I'm going to talk about is the obvious thing that we don't think about enough about the stock market is you're buying a small little piece of a company, hopefully a company that you believe in. And so I'm not going to talk about penny stocks. I'm not talking about gambling. I'm going to talk about something that's so obvious that it doesn't seem obvious to most people. And here it is.

Chapter 4: How can buying stock in companies you believe in be profitable?
You are listening to this right now, probably on an iPhone or an Android or a computer. If you are listening to this on an Apple device, iPhone, laptop, iPad, etc., let me ask you a very serious question. Do you think that Apple will be here in five years? Do you think that Apple will be here in ten years? If you do, and you had a little bit of Apple stock, why would you ever sell it?
What's the point? If you bought, let's say, something for $1,000, and then it went to $1,200 and $1,400 and dipped down to $1,300 and then up to $1,500, and just over the course of time, it had fluctuations, but year after year, it kept growing as a business, growing as a company, the stock price would become less relevant to you.
I've done my investing into the companies that I buy, which is 10 main stocks based on the company themselves. And now I say less about the price. I don't even think about the price because the price doesn't matter to me. The company itself matters. If I believe that Amazon will be here in five to 10 years and longer, and I believe they're going to go from one trillion to two trillion.
and two trillion to three trillion, will the stock price will adjust along the way? Will there be different roller coasters and can it shift even if a company's doing really well in sales like Tesla? Tesla does super good in sales and sometimes their stock drops because of the media or emotion or the economy? Sure, but over the course of time, Tesla's stock year after year has gone up.
Tesla has broke record-breaking earnings year after year. They sell more cars than some of the most household name companies that have been around for 80 years longer than them. I want to invest in Tesla. Now, people obviously say, this is not investment advice. I'm not a registered financial advisor. Oh, that's great. I'm talking about something very obvious. The things that you like,
If you're willing to spend $500 on Amazon to buy products, maybe you should consider buying some Amazon stock. If you like Tesla or you own a Tesla, well, how dare you not own a little bit of Tesla stock? If you have an iPhone that you paid $1,500 for and you didn't spend $1,500 buying Apple stock, you should reconsider what's going on in your world. Here's why.

Chapter 5: Why is Apple stock a good long-term investment?
Let me hurt your brain for a second. Ready for this? there is 15 iPhones, right? Those iPhones range from $800 to $1,300 on average, and the last couple were like a little bit more. Let's call it $1,500. So let's just take the average of let's call it $1,200 times 15. That's around $20,000. So over the 15 iPhones, if each time when the iPhone 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. came out, $800, $900, $1,000, etc.,
the same day that you bought that iPhone, the same day you bought Apple stock. $800 phone comes out, you buy $800 stock. $1100 phone comes out, you buy $1100 stock. If you would have done that, does anybody know, before I hurt your brain, how much those 15 iPhones and your 15 stock purchases of less than $20,000 would be worth right now? That's right, over $1 million.
I'm just letting it set in for a second. If you just bought $20,000 worth of iPhones, like you probably did, and you bought $20,000 of stock, like I wish you did, and you just didn't do anything else, you would have over $1 million of liquid Apple stock right now that you could sell at any time, and then it'll go right into your Wells Fargo or Bank of America Chase account like that.
Let me break your brain again. I'm not even going to tell you the number because it's so big it'll hurt your brain. Ahem. Do you have Netflix? I know the answer, the answer is yes. Okay, over the course of time, Netflix has been between, let's call it 12 to 18 bucks a month. And it's been around for a lot of years. Imagine if you bought 12 to 18 dollars a month of Netflix stock.
$12.
$18. So while you're out there on Netflix and chilling, spend $15 and buy some freaking Netflix stock. If you'd have done that since the beginning of the company, I don't even know the math. It would take me too long and the number would be too big because it's one of the best performing stocks of human history. And we all watched it unfold in front of us.
Everyone, we're all at fault, myself included, of not buying enough Netflix stock. When we knew, without a shadow of a doubt, they'd go from 100 million users to 200 million, 200 million users to 300 million, 300 million to 400 million. It's just math and time compounding.
And when stocks go up or down based on emotion or media or timing or economy, blah, blah, blah, all that's irrelevant over the long term. The long term being Netflix will go from being worth billions of dollars to tens of billions to hundreds of billions to a trillion. Amazon will go from one trillion to two trillion to three trillion to four.
Apple will go from one trillion to two trillion to three trillion to four. These are inevitable things of household name companies. So if you buy from Amazon every single week, you should be buying some Amazon stock. If you have a Tesla, you should consider some Tesla stock. This is not financial advice, blah, blah, blah. It is something for you to think about and consider for yourself.

Chapter 6: What should you consider when investing in popular brands?
If you like a product, you like a business that much to spend your hard-earned money on it, why not buy a little piece of that business that you can afford? And by the way, if you can only afford $100 of stock, that's fine.
If you can happen to afford 1,000 bucks, 10 grand, 50 grand, a million gazillion, that's all, whatever's comfortable to you, it should just be a consideration, a wake-up call, and I think you can hear it in my voice, the frustration, that you are listening to this on an Apple-related product, and you don't have enough Apple stock.
You might be listening to this in a Tesla right now, or you might be waiting for your Amazon delivery while you're listening to this, and you don't have Amazon stock. And you fell asleep watching Netflix last night, and you don't have enough Netflix stock. You just should be considering the companies that you like. So think to yourself, where do you shop? What do you buy? What do you like?
You like Ford? You like Walmart? You like Google? Whatever. Think about the companies that you like and research them and see if that stock might be a fit for you. But not today trade. So buy a piece of something that you believe in for the long term. Because if you buy Netflix stock today, why the heck would you sell it in two years? You think they're just gonna stop or slow down?
If you bought Apple stock today, why on earth would you sell Apple stock in two years? They just released goggles that are like $4,000 and there was a line for blocks. $4,000 when we're supposed to be in a recession and they couldn't keep in these freaking $4,000 glasses, these goggles. And I've never seen anything like it from a marketing perspective that they just released a product.
Let me put it to you this way while you're thinking about Apple stock as I'm yelling at you. Do you know that the Apple AirPods, just the AirPods, the little $200, $300 AirPod headphones that go in your ear? Do you know if that was its own business, it'd be bigger than pretty much every business in the history of the world?
The Apple AirPod itself, the one little product that's just a little piece of plastic and headphone that goes in your ear, they do billions of dollars per quarter. of these little tiny pieces of plastic. Do you realize how few companies in the planet history ever do billions of dollars? They've done billions of dollars of selling these little AirPods. And so why would I sell my Apple stock?
I wouldn't. I don't. I'd buy more. Now, when I say I buy more, you have to research for yourself. What are the stocks that you might like? What are the companies that you might like? I am yelling about the obvious ones. Apple, Facebook, obviously owned by Meta. Meta owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, and they're going to buy more things. They have threads, et cetera.
If you use all these social media platforms, research Meta. See what you think. Meta's stock is up a lot this year. It's insane how much it's up. But that's because they rule the world. They have billions of users. They make a ton of money from ads. And so you should be considering it. I'm not saying you have to go buy meta stock because I'm not telling you you have to buy any stock.
