I had the rest of the yams in my auntie's house because that was like a true... My auntie was my hustling partner.
I used to get the money.
She used to put it up for me, put it in her bra, put it in her...
up under her mattress or whatever.
And she used to do these card games like on the weekends and all the people that came to the card games, they were pretty much my clients.
So I had this tight ecosystem of people that I really trusted.
They were like, you know, let me use their card because I was given this or they would come like, you know, and...
You know, come over house and hang out all weekend, but you know, they would spend a couple hundred dollars with me and I was just like learning how to like make this ecosystem.
So that was like my first company I would say I built.
Like it was a very lucrative country company for me to be that age.
Yeah, I was like 14, 15.
Yeah.
Well, the first thing is music was my escape.
I got to listen to music every morning before school, every day I got out of school, literally all day.
But I learned from the music, so I just actually,
It was like a course.
It was like a college course.
I just listened to music to learn.
Same way I listen to podcasts today.
I literally listen to four, five, six different podcasts throughout the day.
