It's like micro needling.

It's a way more intense facial and so it does help like improve any type of blemishes also like any like fine wrinkles or anything like that, but done it's your own like it's basically needles in your face and it uses your own like blood to rejuvenate. That did not get anything. You can look at my lips into those, okay, But anyway. She's also part of the Today Show as an official contributor that started this year in July.

So I love that because I definitely feel comfortable having conversations with her about my skin and yes and the things that I want to achieve. She's the CEO of Skin and Anesthetic Surgery of Manhattan, and she also prioritizes patient well being. She has a holistic approach to dermatology. And you know, your skin is so important. It's the largest organ on your body. And I think a lot of times we can feel self conscious about how our face looks and things like that. So normally I'll get like a regular face, but this was really good and may it makes your pores like tighter, your skin tighter. Yeah, I'm gone. I went last year, but I'm gonna start doing that once a year. So I just thought about it because when I went last year, it was November around this time, so I'm gonna go again this year.

Hey, Angela, I like to shine a light on my daughter on Sisio who is graduating high school in three years instead of four, and she will be entering college at the agents Gane. I am very proud of her.

Wow, three years instead of four A little you got a little genius.

When I tell you, every single day is something new.

Well, he allegedly has groupies behind bars, he has new allegations, and he also has a legal victory.

Will tell you about it. It's way up, they.

Says in the rooms. From industry shade to all the gossip out send Angela's spilling that yet and it's spill it, spill it.

It's way up at Angela. Yee, I'm here, Mano's here, No man all right?

Yea tea time?

So did He has a third bail hearing on Friday. It'll be interesting to see what happens. But on a positive side for him, uh, they are not going to be able to use the evidence that they obtained during a sweep of his jail cell at this upcoming baill hearing, So that's definitely a win for him. A federal judg said he would not consider that evidence because it violated attorney client privilege when they took that stuff. These were notes that he had written to his lawyers concerning defense strategies, and they visit him in jail, his attorney set in court. Everything in these pads are things we discussed trial strategy. Who we should speak to to undermine a witness's credibility. We discuss everything with mister Combs. Now prosecutors are saying that most of the items taken during the sweep was not that and they said they also don't look at that. They basically have somebody that goes through it and then they can see what they can and can't use.

But the judge did say no.

You can't bucket, yeah, And the judge also said that they have to destroy all of that stuff. The FED said that they saw a document that said legal and did not even open it. And they did, however, take photos of his notebook when they say they handed over to the handed that to the filter team and they had to check if that was privileged and information. But it's eleven pages of notes and they can't use that all right. In the meantime, though, did He has been sued for two more alleged sexual assaults. Now Tony Busby, who's the attorney representing more than one hundred and twenty of these alleged Diddy victims, has filed these lawsuits. One woman is saying that she was outside of a black suv limousine Diddy and his security guards escorted her there where he was waiting inside with six members of his security team.

She said this was in two thousand and.

One, when she was eighteen years old, and she claimed that he forced her to perform oral on each of the men and then ultimately himself. But they did hand her a drink first, which she claims made her feel dizzy after consumption, and then she was called derogatory named and he sprayed champagne on her and only let her leave after.

She did what he told her to do.

Now there's a man who is a John Doe, and he's saying that Diddy or one of his associates drugged him with a lace beverage and he was in and out of consciousness. He said he woke up with a sharp pain in his erectum and anus, and his clothes were missing, and he said he turned around to see why turn and saw Diddy behind him trying to get in there.

What.

Yeah, he said he woke up naked.

Later. Yes, I can't say certain things on the air, but let's just say his rectum and anu is allegedly were hurting when this happened.

So that's another lawsuit, all right.

Now.

Diddy's attorneys are saying these lawsuits are shameless publicity stunts to extract payments. And did he never sexually assaulted or trafficked anyone? That's the defense, all right, Well, that is your Yet when we come back, we have a bout last night. That's where we discussed what we did last night. I know you were outside. I saw you in your chaps. We'll talk about it. You were just like a cowboy, absolutely, but not inside the house outside right, all right, it's way up.

So about last night, Yes, I went down.

Yeah, it's way up. I'man angela yee manos hair.

No.

I saw you were dressed as a cowboys.

Cowboy, dressed like my daddy, and.

Your daddy definitely was dressed like a cowboy.

Where were you?

It was my man fab birthday and he had a theme party. Everybody came dressed like cowboys and cow girls.

Fire Fly.

What would your cowboy name be?

Two guns?

Two guns?

Yeah?

Okay, yeah, there you go. All right, so you would have two guns all the time at all times.

All right, all right, I like that.

Ten paces Happy birthday to Fab. How was the party?

Fire lit? It was fun?

Did everybody come out?

Everybody was on the because you know sometimes people show up with hoodie and jeans on, and.

You're like.

When you come to something like that and you see everybody went and did that, then it's like you feel right, yeah, damn, maybe I should.

Have Did you have those clothes at home?

Now?

I had to go out and bottle.

All right, and where did you find so you know they got cowboys stores all over I didn't realize it now, like you can buy Where was that?

Maybe when I was in Nashville. I think even in the airport, right, because yeah.

You go to Texas.

Yeah, it's very easy find that. I try to offer you this cowboy hat I have up here.

That's not a real one right there, that's like a it's beautiful.

I like that one.

What that is? Right, It's like some real Mexican If.

Not, it's a cowboy hat. It's orange all right.

Well, yesterday I actually was trying to find I'm being honored at this gallat to night, yes, and so I was trying to find something.

I feel like I never have anything to wear to anything.

Yeah, So I ran out afterward and I went to go and pick something out for that. And then after that I went to go eat at this restaurant thanks to you.

By the way, I know this place is called Native thanks to me.

Yeah, in Brooklyn, And so I had some Joel off, I had some Mambo wings.

So this is how we're coming.

So shout out to cut bartender who was there taking care of us. I was actually with Keys, who's my friend, but she's also my makeup artist and she lives right near me.

She had never been there.

Before and I had an idea while I was there, so and I want to see what you think about this. I would love to once a week, maybe on like an off night. You know, certain restaurants it's not like busy during the week it gets busy, or like Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. I would love to once a week pick a restaurant that we all go to and everybody just goes and like what buys food and drinks and shops at that And like black on restaurants, we pop out, we pop out. We pick a different restaurant every week to.

Support Are we filming it or is it like content?

It has to be content.

Yeah, we can do content, but I think that would be really nice, right, and maybe we call it the eat out.

What I like that?

Don't know, don't do that. We're getting upping, but I'm saying we're going to outside to eat. I can't even say it, right, but I think that you think that's cute. I thought about that while I go to school, you know, because certain times restaurants are so busy and listen one good night at a restaurant can actually like help you so much as far as taking care of staff bills.

And think you're got a hand. So how we pull out to the front. We pull it to the front or the back and eat out, which.

I think we should go in through the front. And yeah, everybody gets a booth. But I think it's a great idea. So I'm actually gonna start working on this.

I like you though. Yeah, I'm that serious.

Because not only does it do that, it brings attention to restaurants. Because Keys had never been there before.

She loved it.

So we picked some really great restaurants and then people will go back.

And that'spread the word.

You have to like make it, make it content out of it.

All right.

So and y'all should all do this in your city. So let's all come together and make it happen, all right. Well, when we come back, tell us a secret. Eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty is a number. Call us up any secret that you have. We are here to help you out and judge me listen and help you get it out there so it can disappear and dissipate and you don't got to worry about it no more. Eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty. Call us up, tell us a secret. It's a no judgment zone. Eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty.

Two fifty Hello anonymous college, tell us your secret.

So I have a twenty eight year gap with my husband and we have twelve years together now with kids. But it's starting to hit me now that damn we have.

An age gap.

I don't know should I bring this up to you?

Should I not?

I kind of feel like I should be, but I'm like, I still love you, but it's a it's different now.

Yeah, what's hitting different?

We're not going to go through obviously the same transitions, and like I'm already going to be thirty one, and I'm like, damn, like this, I'm in a new age gap. Like you know when they hit you there, oh I'm getting older and stuff, and now he's like, oh yeah, I already been there. I'll walk you through it. And I'm like, maybe I should have been with somebody by we could have trends it in together and going like he's a great man and he's gonna through everything with me. But I'm like, I wish I would have had someone maybe my same age right now, to kind of go through life.

Right, but you.

Still but you still love him.

It's just that you see as he's getting older, that he's not on the same wavelength as you anymore.

Yeah, right, I mean, what are you planning to do?

I don't know. I've always talked to him about everything, but I was like, should I don't know if I should talk about this? What you should bring it up? What does this be?

Because there's nothing he could do about that.

What can he do?

Yeah, if you talk to him about it, I mean, it's not like it's going to change anything.

And you say, he's a good dude. So it just sounds like to me that you just.

Wantest Is there anything he could do that would make you feel like, Okay, you know we're back.

Well.

Thank you for calling it and getting that out there with us and tell us a secret. Good luck to you guys. Man, Hey Anutamus caller, how are you?

I'm good? Thank you? You want to tell us a secret?

Yeah, nobody in my circle. The only person that knows is my husband. And I got let go for my job like on Thursday.

I've been there for six five years, and so I just I'm mortified.

I just want to say this, it's nothing to be mortified about.

At some point that happens to damn near everybody who ends up having a job. I'm gonna be honest, like letting go from it. I gotta let go from a job, and that's how I ended up starting radio.

No, thank you for in that. Maybe that's the next after kind of thing.

And I do want to say, while you haven't told anybody yet, once you do, you'll be surprised how helpful people can.

Be, really, and it could be a blessing in disguise.

Everything happens for the way it's supposed to happen, So you got to let go. But it's something great on the horizon for.

You, yarmy.

Thank you.

It's a good time to start thinking about something maybe that you've always wanted to do or that you're passionate about, and maybe pursuing that and also letting people know is a good way for you to get references and maybe somebody can hook you up with something.

Thank you.

Yeah, not a bad idea.

All right, take care, all right, have a good day. Thank you. I felt like you were giving some advice today.

Yeah, I did. And I'm the greatest at it though.

Yeah you are. You're an EmPATH.

Yeah I like that about you. But listen, though, somebody reached out to it and just said to tell you what's up though.

All right, we'll talk about it in the second when we come back. I don't know where this is going, but we do have some yet. Let's talk about Denzel Washington he's been doing all the interviews and he is walking back the same sex kiss claim.

No man, he was just joke, and he said, well, so there was a joking.

I don't know. We'll talk about it.

His way up.

Sure, she's about to blow the lid ab off this, but just gid it. Angela's feeling that. Ye see, come and get to see all right.

His way up with Angela. Yee, I'm here, my guy, Meno's here, No man, no mano. So and I didn't get to this earlier, but did. He allegedly has quote unquote groupies behind bars and according to reports I saw Lisa Evers reported on this, they are lining up to make his bed for him and basically just take care of him. They uh, that's I mean, I can see that people want to be friends with Diddy right now while he's locked up, thinking like, just in case this doesn't happen, he has a lot of famous friends. Here is what one unidentified individual have to say.

Like, you always want everybody to be having How were the other guys like tweeting him?

They was being around him?

Another dude, you get a bit or do so?

He said they would be jealous of each other if one person was closer to him than another person.

You know, this is who could be close to him, do things for him.

You know, I guess you guess what I mean. That's just how it is like sometimes, man, you know, people want to be close to that, you know.

You know what's interesting, some of these accusations against him do deal with underage accusations. I felt like, in jail, that's like a huge no no, Like people don't respect that absolutely. But these allegations of rape and things like that, like I feel like a right, yeah know, they are definitely just allegations.

But in prison, he's not in prison.

Like usually what you're talking about is usually for somebody that's convicted for something that.

Okay, so until you get convicted, because I feel like even when people are charge, I watched too many movies.

They'd be disrespectful, all right.

Denzel Washington, there is a rumor that he kind of starts that he kissed another man while filming for Gladiated Too.

Here's what he said.

Originally, I actually kissed the man in the film, but they took it, they cut it.

I think they got chicken. I guess they weren't ready for that yet. Well, I heard him about five minutes later.

All right, well, Ridley Scott is saying that did not happen. Here's what Ridley Scott had to say.

Denzel said he kissed the man on the lips, but it didn't make the final cut. No, that's book. It was a senator.

They never did.

They acted the moment and didn't happen. Okay, so really it didn't even have Denzel was just saying anything. Why would he just say that.

I don't know, But here's what Denzel had to say. He kind of walked it back.

Ridley said he never saw the kiss. It's much ado about nothing. You know, they're making more of it than it was. I kissed him on his hands, that gave him a peck.

And I killed him, right, so, you know.

I mean, I don't understand though, Like, why would he say that if he didn't do it.

Maybe he didn't. I don't know.

I have no idea. I'm gonna be honest. Maybe he was just having fun in the moment. Maybe he didn't mean like people were thinking a kiss, kiss like lips locked, but he just meant like a kiss on.

The hand he kissed the man.

Yeah, I don't know, but listen.

Denzel also was sat down with Esquire, and he said that he talked about his love for expensive wines.

It all started in nineteen ninety nine.

He had a ten thousand bottle wine cellar in his house, and he said he guzzled four thousand dollars bottles of wine, but never more than two bottles in one sitting. And then he said that if he would order too much wine, he would end up drinking more during the day. He stopped drinking while he was acting on the sets of his films, but he would then drink for three months straight, then sober repons shoot a movie. This went on for fifteen years, he said, and did a lot of damage to his body.

He did also say that.

He never got strung out on heroin or cocaine, but he confessed to shooting quote unquote dope even though he never did get hooked on it. But ten years of sobriety. In December, he said, I haven't had a thimbles worth since good But you never know what somebody going through, you don't. I would have never thought that. Never imagine Denzel. You ain't never see Denzel, not on point somewhere.

That's how we thought, all.

Right, well that is your yet when we come back, it's under the radar. These are the stories that are not necessarily in the headlines. They are flying under the radar, but you definitely need to know about them. It's way up right now. Here's a song that we all know and love, go Digger Yay and Jamie Foxx stitch in.

The news that relates to you. These stories are flying under the radar.

It's way up with Angela Yee, I'm here Mano's here, man, and let's do these under the radar stories now. Yesterday, Donald Trump has called for the Senate to stop confirming judges before he's sworn into office. Now you're not the president yet, but you're telling people what to do right now now, he said on tooth Social, his website. The Democrats are trying to stack the court with radical left judges on their way out the door. Republican senators need to show up and hold the line. No more judges confirmed before inauguration day. Now, Senate Democrats did whole late night votes money to confirm and Biden's picks to the federal judiciary.

Because you know, Donald.

Trump's main thing has been making sure that he stacks the Supreme Court so that they can.

Do whatever they want.

Yeah.

Absolutely, and hopefully Biden uses this time while he's in office to use the power that he does have to get some things done, because right now it's not looking good.

All right, air tags.

Do you have air.

Tags on anything?

Well, Apple now has an air tag partnership with airlines, and that could help make sure that your luggage did not get lost again. Apple knows that people have come to rely on air tags that they move around the world, so they want to make these travel accessories even more useful. And so now they're allowing people to share secure links to the whereabouts of their air tags with third parties and that will soon include airlines. So now you don't have to worry about lost luggage anymore. That's a beautiful thing. I have air tags. It's a good thing to put air tags well, definitely in your luggage and they don't even.

Have to know that.

It's what you use tags for.

Laptop.

So something happens to my laptop, it's you know, somebody tries to steal something.

Yeah, you know where it is.

Delta Airlines is going to start serving shakeshack cheeseburgers next month, by the way, so you'll be able to get that as part of your in flight meal. And a delicious cheeseburger is an iconic comfort food. But they go beyond the burger. Obviously, they have beef. Now listen, on these flights, it is whatever they If you don't eat something, you just won't eat on the flight. And I've come to realize that, you know, sometimes you have choices. Sometimes you don't sometimes because they already serve burgers sometimes on the flight, so if you don't eat it, you just won't eat. But maybe they'll do like veggie burgers and things like that. But eligible flyers can pre select as their entree selection up to seven days before departure via the fly Delta app and it comes with cheese and served on a toasted potato bun. Additional toppings will be available on the side as well as chips. It's sees, a salad and a dark chocolate browning. But they don't have other items like there's no French fries, no hot dogs, no milkshakes, nothing like that. So that's a big deal and some people will absolutely love that. All right, those are your under the radar stories. Now today is a Wealth Wednesday. It's also my Wealth Wednesday partner, Stacey Tizziale's birthday, so happy birthday to her. And we are going to have the founder of Hero Holmes You joining us in a conversation.

The article is Kat Williams, the man who opened the Portal And one of the questions he asked is why he chose Club Shashe to deliver his viral manifesto. He said, Shannon is in the rare position where people aren't sure where his allegiance lies. There's so many questions that it gives me the opportunity to allow this black man to show his true colors while I show mine, all right, And so all of that was a surprise to everybody, including Shannon shop. It's like the most watched interview ever in history. Yeah, and history, and you know they talk about the p Diddy story that he told on there. He also said that comedy is the only outlet that permits real truth telling. He said, I haven't seen a reverend get away with it. I haven't seen a politician get away with it. I've not seen nobody who has been in a position where they were allowed to expose those lies, accentuate the truth, and blow a little whistle. He also talked about his lukewarm reception to his recent comedy special Woke Folk. He said, no franchise that sells you season tickets can promise you what kind of season your team fin to have.

I would be fastitious if I say all I do is win.

But if you ever see me losing, know that I'm doing the best that I can and that if there was another way around this, that's what I would be taking.

And like we saw Wallow and Gillian Wallow talking to him, right, you know, be there for your kids, all right.

Afraid that my family's gonna embarrass me.

They're going to do too much.

They not really the type of people I like to bring my friends and my boyfriend around.

Well, then don't this guy is the one, right I took the condom off yet?

Oh my gosh, no.

No, because I don't even know if that one's in my family.

So they don't do it.

I don't want to say holidays are a high pressure time to be introducing somebody to the whole family. He should meet like your immediate family first, in a smaller situation so they can get you know, used to him already before you bring him around your whole family.

Because I think that is just too much at once.

It's overload.

And guess what, leave the family early and then go see your man after that and bring him a plate.

How do I break it to her?

I say, bring them he wants to go because if he understands everybody got crazy people in their family, everybody family is embarrassing.

But I do think some people get offended if they don't meet you before the rest of the family family does. Like I know, I used to date this guy and I met his family at Thanksgiving and his mom was really mad that she didn't meet me before them, like she would rather have known me before the rest of your family, you know, and listen, being embarrassed in front of your family is part of the courses.

My family's extremely embarrassing, and I think.

I think you're right. I might just leave him at home and meet him later.

With the name.

Oh you know what you do, have him come towards the end of the night to pick you up so he can come in say hi and keep it moving.

You know, like, no, no, what if I'm what if I taught my grandma because she never met him.

Why would she be the one got him? Okay, you know she's important, she's number one of us.

Understand that you should meet her grandmother first, because if he little things like that, that's like the hierarchy and the family where the grandmother, the mom, the debt, whoever it is, that is like the closest to you.

They should meet him before the whole family.

Does all these rules. Man, where are you going?

Who's going to do then?

At my house?

Well, thank you for calling in. Good luck either way, it's gonna be funny.

Thank you so much for helping me.

All right, no problem, all right, Well that was ask ye. Don't follow Mayno's advice as is that sweet potato.

Pie and apple pie together?

Wasn't that supposed to be my apple pie?

I didn't touch your apple pie. That's your apple pi, right did?

Okay? Alright?

Anyway, that's why you don't bring greedy people to Thanksgiving. Imagine your boyfriend come and eat everything like Mano's doing.

All right?

Well, that is asked ye eight hundred two ninety two fifty one fifty. If you couldn't get thrill, you can still leave a message. We can answer your questions that way and when we come back. It is a wealth Wednesday. We have the founder of Hero Holmes you, Siam Abraham, joining us. He is breaking down barriers to real estate investing. We have a free course for you guys too. It's way up.

I had a dream of wealthy and I don't mind sharing my wealth dogs.

Getting you straight financially, mentally and physically. This is Wealth Wednesday. On way up with Angela ye what's up?

His way up with Angela yee. And it is a wealth Wednesday. And we're talking today about things that I love. And Stacey Tisdale is here my partner.

Happy Wealth Wednesday, everybody, and we are very excited to talk about real estate.

Let's go, and we.

Have an amazing human being with us here, Sayam Ibrahim, who is the founder of Hero Homes. You this company has done fourteen hundred real estate transaction, has a portfolio of a quarter billion dollars a hotel in the Dominican Republic. You have over six hundred rental units worth eighty million dollars.

But you started with a forty.

Five thousand dollars investment with your brother.

How does this happen?

Yeah, you know it's look, I was in corporate America, right. I'm a son of two immigrant parents, mother's Dominican, father's Ethiopian, and actually grew up in New York City right this lovely city right here. And you know I was always taught to go to the traditional I'll go to school. My parents pushed me. They instilled me hard work, ethic post that they got me a job on Wall Street. Actually so I worked at Goldman Sachs. But I realized very quickly that wasn't for me, all right. I didn't like the grind and like the eighty plus hour work weeks, didn't like someone telling me that I could or couldn't do something. So you know, I actually quit cold Turkey, didn't know what I was gonna do, flipped cars in the meantime her to figure out what I was gonna do, and my brother found an awesome house in Norton, New Jersey. No systems didn't know what we were doing. All we knew was that it was an ugly house surrounded by pretty houses that was a host exactly. Bought it for forty five thousand, bought two thousand, three thousand, one thousand, and the end we got the money, bought it, renovated, sold it and made sixty thousand dollars in our first day.

You were like, got the bug right now, Stacey, TISDAYL and I are talking to Siam Abraham on Wealth Wednesday.

Well, tell us about hero homes you.

Yeah, absolutely so. Hero homes You is something we started. We've coached ten thousand people plus over the years, and we target people that feel like they're stuck. Your bank account's not growing, you're barely fighting inflation, right, and we show them what we do all day, every day, twice on Sunday, right, and all that through is copy and repeat what we show them, and they can close their first, second, third, and many.

Deals beyond that do you think it's a lot harder now because I keep on hearing people talk about the way the real estate market has been with the interest rates, even being able to purchase a home has been extremely difficult. And I have a lot of my friends who are like, look, I want to buy my first house, but I don't know how it's ever gonna be possible.

So on the vestor side of it, I'm a big believer that regardless what interest rates are doing, people need to live somewhere right. Whether you're going they're gonna rent the home, where they're gonna buy a home, people need to live somewhere right. So real estate's always gonna be moving regardless of where interest rates are. Get in it, just get in it now is always the best time to buy real estate. Right now stands for no opportunity wasted.

What if people feel like they don't have that chunk of money to put down.

Though, Oh man, that's my wheelhouse all day long.

Let's talk about it. Getting into deal.

Strategically is how you can get into real estate. There's so many different ways you can buy a property and not really need a lot of money. Right there is this a huge misconception that you need you know, big cash, big saves to buy real estate deal and that's all cap right, there's hard money that will fund the majority of your deal. You can get JV partners, right, you can have the seller become your lender right and do a seller holdback where they fund your down payment. So you really don't need a lot of money to get into the game. Right. And actually I prepare something a little special for your people, Okay watching this show, right, I have a millionaire funding program right where I show you how you can buy real estate with not all out of money out of pocket. Right, and I'm gonna give it to all your people for free for listening today.

Right.

We charge for this, but I'm giving them real game because I want them to go out there and close their first, second, and third deal.

So you text hero to six eight nine two one five seven sixty sixty four.

Diam Ibrahim is here and we are talking to him about investing in real estate. He has over fourteen hundred real estate transactions under his belt. I'm with Stacy Tizdale and we have more when we come back on this Wealth Wednesday.

Prema wealthy, and I don't mind sharing my.

Wealth dogs getting you straight financially, mentally, and physically. This is Wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela Ye.

What's up?

His Way Up with Angela Yee, I'm here and the Birthday Girls. Stacy Tisdale is here. We are talking to Siam Abraham, the founder of hero at Holmes. You he's told over ten thousand people how to build wealth in real estate over the last fifteen years. Do you teach to buy and flip or do you teach to buy and then rent the properties out.

It's a combination of everything, right, So we have something that we coined a couple of years back called the flip to Freedom method. So for every three properties you buy, you flip too, which covers your now money right, that covers things like your bills, that allows you to stack of cash, get your money right, and then the third one you keep it for your future money as passive income. Too many people don't get into the rental game and they pay the price long term. And when you own rental properties, when you own real estate, you actually pay less in income taxes on your flips. You pay less in income taxes on your jail b income. And so I show them start buying rentals now. In two, three, four years down the line, you have a couple and you've now replaced your income, so you can go and fire your boss if that's what you decide you want to do.

And I've seen videos and stuff you really walk your students through start to finish like you're in the deals with them, which absolutely.

We host the Mastermind every quarter and we bring them to our hotel and we show them how we acquired it, how he funded it, how he structured it, what the exist strategies are in the hotel. So I'm all about thinking outside the box. So we've done this on multiple casion. We've done in Ohio, we've done it in Florida and Atlanta, and we've done in dr.

So many people are listening to this and they're like, yeah, this sounds great, but it's for other people, not for me. And you say, in our community a lot of limiting beliefs about wealth, and that's really why you're doing this.

Absolutely, I'm doing this for our community, our Latino, our African American communities are people of color. We've been conditioned to believe that we can't do things. There's a quote that I heard a couple of years back that if you believe you can. If you believe you can't, you're right. So if you enter the game already thinking you can't do it, you've already lost the battle, right So I'm trying to instill belief, instill excitement, and help people change their lives. And I truly believe that real estate's the best vehicle to make that happen.

Right now, Stacy tis dyl and I are talking to Siam him on Wealth Wednesday. What's something that somebody can do right now?

So if you want to get your first deal, and you want to close your first deal the next thirty days, if you follow these exact steps, you will close your first deal in the next thirty days.

Your course is two thousand dollars, yes, but we're giving it a freebees's right.

So it's our Millionaire funding program, all right. So you're gonna get our ebook. You're also going to get our online you know, funding program, and it's going to show you all the creative ways to structure your real estate deals. So we're gonna we're fighting the misconception need to have a lot of money to do real estate. We show you how to get debt service covers, ratio loans, so rental loans that don't require your personal financials to be right, so you can still own rental properties and now the rental properties to qualify for the loan a right. We show you how to use seller financing, how to get joint ventures together and partner with people to get a deal, to get a deal done, how to use private money. So we talk about all the creative ways to get your deal funded so you absolutely can close your first real estate deal.
