Worldwide Ty describes deciding to plan for living to 80 after growing up around early deaths of young Black men. That shift from a "cash in now" mentality changed how he values his future and makes decisions today.

Everything for me changed when I realized I wanted to live till I was 80. You know what I'm saying? We try to get stuff so fast because we don't know when we gonna leave. We grow up as black men, basically seeing everybody young die, probably. So you're not planning. So it's like, I got this thing that's hot. I need to cash it in now. Like, I need my money now. I don't want to think about it, because it might not be hot then, or it might not be valuable in two years, or it might not be valuable in four years. That simple click of like, man, I don't want to live till I'm 80.
