And a Dooney and Burke's purse.

Okay.

And man, just when I got that, and this is the thing that really is crucial for me, Bishop, that thing is important for everyone to understand.

I didn't understand the vocabulary.

No one ever taught me anything.

So when I spent $500, my very first bid was only $52.

So I'm like, wait, I can spend 500 and only pay back 52?

So I just applied for so many more credit cards.

Ended up with about $30,000 in debt within a matter of seven months.

And I'm paying back about $2,000 a month, lost my job, could not pay it back.

Got into an argument with my other father and I ended up being homeless off of Highway 76 in Oceanside, California.

My parents thought that I was gonna be living with a friend, but the truth of the fact is that I was actually sleeping in the back of my car in a Walmart parking lot.

Not because my parents were broke and couldn't afford it, just because of one, my ego, my pride, and just a lack of information.

And during that season of me living in the back of my car, I was a guy, I did it two times, I don't wanna exaggerate it, two times I was a guy holding a sign saying, can I have some money just to get something to eat?

I know what it feels like to be racially profiled because they see an African-American young man asking for money.

I heard people say he's gonna use money to buy drugs, don't give him no money.

And that was the time I thought about committing suicide.

All because of the poor decisions that I made, but the poor decisions that I made were just because of the lack of information that I did not receive.

And I remember telling God, I said, God, if you get me out of the backseat of this car, I know I'm not gonna be perfect, but I guarantee you, I will not be here.

And I remember going home to my father, my other father in California said, hey, I'm sorry for the poor decisions that I made, but I wanna get better.
