- I'm never wrong about anything
.
I say that and people go, oh yeah, no, no, please, please understand me. I'm never wrong. For the people who've just
encountered me or my brand you may not know this but the ogs have been following me for five or six years no i've been right about everything
It was day one of COVID. Everyone was afraid.
I knew.
news bullshit
I just know things.
How I know things
That's a good question.
I have this instinct.
I'm from the streets and now I'm at the absolute upper echelon of masculine performance, the highest possible echelons of life, from the lowest possible echelons of life.
I think I've learned a lot along the way, but even the other people I encounter who have had a similar trajectory...
They don't know what I know.
I just know things.
And the reason I'm saying this is because
as usual, time,
my friend,
Proves me right in the end.
And time has proved me right about something else, which I knew from the absolute beginning was complete bullshit.
Complete garbage.
- So today we're gonna talk about
NFTs.
There was a time
When
very successful people
Rich people.
were trying to convince me to spend millions of dollars
on a JPEG.
And they tried to explain to me that it's on the blockchain and it's one of one and you can see on the blockchain. Who the fuck is checking the blockchain from my JPEG, G?
Who cares?
3 million for a Bugatti, fine, drive the Bugatti. 3 million for a JPEG,
People can just copy and save the JPEG.
"No, but my JPEG's the real one. "It's on the blockchain, look on the blockchain. "If you go to etherscan.com, bro, what planet are you on?"
Nobody gives a fuck by Etherscan checking the blockchain. Even if I proved after all that I owned that picture, guess who would care? No one.
Only nerds.
It was a circle jerk of nerds. And there was all these crypto influencers on Twitter.
bruv, these are the worst people in the world, these people. All these crypto influencers, all
unimpressive specimens of human,
None of them have done anything difficult to actually make money. You know, if you want to make money in the real world, you have to learn skills along the way.
If you want to go from zero dollars
up to 10 million dollars a year you're going to have to learn how to deal with stress you're going to learn how to deal with people how to hold meetings confidence how to manage staff you have to learn things by the time you get there
You're going to be a better person, not just because of the wealth, because wealth amplifies who you are as a man, but because of the lessons you learn along the way. Whereas if you make a whole bunch of money with crypto, guess what you learned?
Nothing.
You didn't learn anything. You are still a dork, but now you're a rich dork, which makes you a mega dork.
Money doesn't change who you are, it amplifies who you are.
So all these crypto influencers, there's a couple of them, I don't want to throw
names around.
They were all over the page.
The Bored Ape, y'all clobbered.
- Brough, brough, brough.
The fact you think that's worth money shows that you've always been a loser, and now you're just a loser with money. There's no real G on the planet who is spending money on those NFTs.
not one.
I'm extremely wealthy and I could have invested in the most expensive NFT
three, four, five million, whatever they were.
And it wouldn't have even affected my bank balance. I wouldn't have even cared.
And I could have done it just as a, maybe I'll make some money.
And I still didn't out of principle because I refused to sell my soul to the god of geekdom.
No. And here we are, two years, year and a half, whatever later,
Who cares about NFTs?
What'd you say?
Yes, correct. Nobody.
Nobody cares, as usual,
I was completely right.
Nobody gives a shit.
Bro, I saw there was pictures of a rock.
being sold for like, I don't know, 100 Ether. I can't even remember the prices. I just remember seeing it thinking, this is absolutely ridiculous.
So I hope all of the people who invested in these NFTs lost all their money.
I hope you're old.
desperate and poor.
The great thing about people like that losing their money is they never learn any lessons along the way. So, let's go back to what I said earlier about the fact that you make money in the real world, you learn lessons which can be applied.
to life. So if you make it in the real world, even if you lose it all, you can make it all again, probably easier because you're a better version of yourself who knows new things.
Whereas if you make it all with crypto, which is basically gambling,
You get lucky.
You don't know anything new. And you certainly are not in the position to go and get a real job or work hard.
because you've once experienced easy money.
So you're not going to wake up and think, I'm going to be a hard worker. Money's hard to make. I'm going to be disciplined.
I'm gonna be motivated.
No, you're not one of them. You just want to win another gamble. And you sit there and go, if I can just pull it off one more time, this time I won't be stupid with the money. If I could just do it this once more, I promise I won't buy NFTs. I won't buy JPEGs. I'll buy real things. I'll buy stuff that matters. I'm sorry, God, just one more time. Let me go on the ether scan or let me go and pancake swap and buy some shit coin. Please do a 200X this shit coin, please.
And they just lose everything.
I just...
Everyone just loses everything.
continuously gamble to
Oblivion.
You know,
One of the coolest things about having loads of money
And...
People have been speculating about how much money I have, but let's put it this way.
I have loads of money.
Let's say I invested $100 million tomorrow. Chump change.
If I get a 10% return, that's 10M.
Easy, done.
I can get a 2% return, $2 million.
safe.
Take it, nice and easy, simple.
I can put it in ETH or Bitcoin or I can do a bunch of traditional financial instruments and be a lot safer and more by the book. I can put in 100 million.
I can look for a 1% or a 2%.
guaranteed to get it no risk get my money back get two million free buy an apartment
Boom, Aikido.
Easy.
But when you only have $500,
You gotta pray for some mass extinction event
You can't just make 2% on $500.
And this is why all the dumb money
ends up with us to smart money. This is why the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
Because
There's no such thing as free money.
I make my 2%.
because a bunch of people lost money somewhere else. And the person who lost money is someone who put in $500,
and managed to pull off a 4X, got up to two grand,
And he sat there and goes, if I could just get to five grand, then I'll take it out and lost it.
Because you're very greedy when you're poor.
When you're rich, you don't have to be greedy. You can be very sensible, very calm. We let all the brokies
put their little money into these things and pray. All of their aspirations and dreams, all of their hopes, all of the idea, you know, I might matter one day, I might be able to fix my car, if I could just ride this to the top. My friend gave me this recommendation, I really believe. All of the Brokey's dreams and aspirations, they all put all their money in this big pot, this big fantasy, and guess who gets it all?
People like me sit there
and wait for all the Brokies, dreams, and aspirations to evaporate.
into the atmosphere.
We come along and scoop it all up and put it in our big money piles.
behind walls.
Our money operates in ways you can't even fucking understand.
You think that rich people like me just have money in banks. It doesn't even work that way. You don't even get it.
You don't even get where your money goes.
But it's mine.
And you're still sitting there going, well, maybe the next, this new collection of NFTs, maybe.
Brov.
Get a job.
You should have had a job the whole time.
You got lucky as fuck.
Your luck ran out.
You're trying to win the fucking lottery again. The odds of it happening are exceptionally low.
You should learn some real skills and get a real job.
Now, this is a perfect time for me to explain that.
I have never sold NFTs.
In fact, there was a time when I gave free NFTs away with the t-shirts that you could buy on topg.com completely for free. And if you bought a t-shirt, you got a free NFT and people made actually some money on them. And I did it because if I give them for free, nobody can lose money.
And I want to make sure none of my fans ever lose money.
I've never endorsed an NFT project because I don't want any of my fans to lose money. I've never endorsed a crypto project because I don't want any of my fans to lose money.
It doesn't matter if I endorse a coin tomorrow or launch a coin tomorrow. It doesn't matter if it does a 200x.
Eventually,
somebody will lose some money. And I refuse to have an Andrew Tate fan who believes in Andrew Tate
Lose anything.
Because I already have all the dreams and aspirations of all the fucking idiots out there who are gambling. I already have all the money in the world. I'm not going to hurt my own fans.
I'm not going to do that.
So I've never done these things. I have Hustlers University, the real world, where I teach people how to make money for real. But you have to learn skills. You have to work hard.
It's not like crypto gambling. You have to sit there and do lessons and learn things and pay attention and be disciplined and turn up each day and try hard. But I'll teach you how to make money for real. And then by the time you make $10 million, you're the kind of person who can easily make $10 million anytime they want.
You upgrade your character as a person. You upgrade yourself as a man. You become a better version, a better avatar to navigate the video game. You learn Aikido.
That is far more interesting than a crypto pump. Crypto pumps are what the lazy loser dreams of.
I don't want to learn any skills. I don't want to pay any attention. I don't want a strong network. I don't want to have to work with other rich people. I don't want to have a bunch of staff I have to manage. No, I just want just to get some free money. Please just give me some money.
I'm glad you all lost everything.
All of you, every single crypto dork, I'm glad you are all going broke.
Makes me so happy.
In the spirit of that, I got this today in the mail.
This is our model.
of a Rimac, Nevera.
And then they very kindly sketched my Rimac-Nibera.
which cost me around $4.4 million. I could have bought a JPEG,
It was a tough one.
But, you know, I thought, hmm...
Instead of buying the JPEG of a monkey,
Let me buy the fastest car on the planet.
And then what I should do is I should have an exposed red carbon with gray.
and gold accents. You know? And then I should probably have my name stitched into the seat.
And it's almost finished production, and they just sent me this artist sketch from the RUMAC design team saying they can't wait for me to go and collect it.
I mean,
I'm sure when it turns up, I'll look at it and I'll think, "Oh man, I saw that guy on Twitter."
That fat guy and that blonde guy, those guys, and that guy with no profile picture,
who were
going on and on about the monkey picture, Bored Ape, and
how amazed they were that
You know, they could upgrade their ape and...
I'm probably going to feel the sting of regret, but maybe when I get in the fastest car in the world,
and start tearing through the Croatian countryside, that's where I'm going to collect it from.
on my way to a beautiful five star hotel, where many good friends are waiting for me.
because I'm still rich.
Richard and I've ever fucking been, despite the Matrix attack.
I might just be able to get over the fact that I never owned a fucking J-Cook.
Yeah.
