The problem is that four to five percent of the population, something like that, is not Cluster B, that's the DSM-5 terms, histrionic, narcissistic, antisocial, psychopathic, and they have dark tetrad traits. They're Machiavellian.
Oh, I'm sorry, dark tetrad.
I said triad. I was wrong. That's about 4%. Okay, so the question is, how do these people maneuver? And the answer is they go to where the power is, and they adopt those ideas, and they put themselves even on the forefront of that. But the ideas are completely irrelevant. All they're doing is they're the Pharisees. They're the modern version of the Pharisees.
They're the people who use God's name in vain, right?
Okay, let's pause real quick because that's him basically saying Candace Owens, okay? So I've got the tweet fromβlet me see if I can pull it up hereβ Here you go. Jordan Peterson tweeted, Candace Owens is a true pharisaical pretender. She vociferously proclaims her devotion to Christ for no other reason than to evaluate her perceived status.
Her outrage is designed not to shout the truth from the rooftops, build bridges, or make peace, but to subvert Christianity itself with its new force to her own purposes. She is literally using God's name in vain. There are few more unforgivable sins. Jordan Peterson says, woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites.
You are like whitewashed tombs to appear beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and every kind of filth.
Okay. Oh, boy, Jordan. This is some kind of like interfactional beef. When Jordan Peterson mentions the cluster B dark tetrad individuals, they go to where power is. That's the corporate press right now. That's what all of that was. The reason why they're marching in lockstep, the reason they're lying is because they're not there to seek truth. They're there to seek power and influence.
I work for some of these organizations. The reason people get jobs there is because they want the platform to get followers. They want to be famous. They tell you things like, I always wanted to be a muckraker, like Nellie Bly. I wanted to be like her. You're like, oh, so you're looking for vanity and attention. OK, that's a bit unfair. If you want to emulate good behaviors, it's fine.
But typically for a lot of these people, they are not saying they wanted to do the good work. They're saying they wanted that position and reverence that came with it.
They proclaim moral virtue. It doesn't matter whether it's right or left or Christian or Jewish or Islam. They invade the idea space and then they use those ideas as false weapons to advance their narcissistic advantage. And so then you have the problem And the right's going to face this more and more particularly because the left had to face it when they were in power. Yes.
How do you identify the psychopathic parasites, 4% of the population, who are clothed in your clothing? Not naming any names. On your clothes.
No, they only just call Candace Owens a psychopathic parasite. Come on. Look, I tweeted after this clip saying, at Dr. Peterson, who are you referring to? He called Candace Owens a Pharisee, a Pharisee cycle pretender to the Lord names in vain. He then does this segment, this bit. They've got this document he put out. You know, he's literally calling her a psychopathic parasite.
My mom never got justice from her work acquaintance who attempted to take her life when she was the mother of three young kids years before I was born.
She has always credited her beating heart today with a story she heard from another woman in a similar circumstance, speaking on the radio as my mom drove home one day, entirely unaware of the future ahead in which she would call upon this critical moment to save her own life. The woman painfully and graphically shared how she escaped.
And because of hearing that woman speak to her experience instead of shutting down in fear and unfair shame, my mom is alive today. She was saved by a woman whose name she'll never know. I am alive and standing here with you all today being honored because of a woman whose name I'll never know. I am here and my mom is here. Because that woman not only survived, but she told others how.
You can see her in just a second.
Hey, guys. Thanks for your time today. So my question is about selecting a smart investor pro. So I went on your website recently and had quite the candidate pool reach out to me. So I know they should have the heart of a teacher, that their values should align to my values and goals. I know the four buckets I should be investing in.
But outside of that, what qualifying questions should I be asking? And what does that conversation look like?
Yeah, four, five and six. Yep. And for some more background, I've been contributing to a 401k for well over a decade, but now it's time for a 529. And when I went to set it up, it wasn't as clear as those four buckets, you know, the growth, growth and income, aggressive growth international.
So that's where I was like, you know what, maybe I'm a little over my head, or maybe it's time to pay someone to help me manage these because I'm a bit of a tightwad, but if they can help me and it makes life a little easier, that's kind of where I want to go next.
There you go. I love it. Is there any, anything that I should avoid? Yeah.
