I don't really have a purpose anymore. I have all the money in the world. I didn't even dream about this amount of money. I have more money coming in a day than I used to think dreaming about coming in a year. I'm not even working for it and keep showing up and I don't know what to do. So you typically, they go down the path of drinking, drugs, sex, whatever, and all these crazy things, and then one day they wake up and realize money is a tool. And it could be a good tool or a bad tool. Just my stance is being rich is great, just so we're clear, so there's no misconception here, but it's not about being rich. It's about where you're at and where you want to go. It's about being confident in yourself. Knowing that I can go out and create value in the marketplace by putting great deals together, great relationship capital deals together. I have the mental fortitude because I put in all the effort while your ass is sleeping. I've already got two and a half hours deep in the game of entrepreneurship and mental fitness and taking care of me and doing all these things.
