Tristan Tate

I found myself locked in a prison.

And I thought, you know, none of these things would have been boring and I shouldn't have been so ungrateful for the life that I was living.

But it crept up on me slowly because I'm not like a, I didn't catch a crypto pump.

I didn't win the lottery.

My wealth and success slowly crept up as the years, you know, went along.

And maybe, you know, you're very young.

So, you know, never find yourself in this situation where you have absolutely everything you ever wished, you know, for having.

but you didn't appreciate having it.

Going to jail and having everything taken away from me was like a hard reset in my mind where even now it's been years since I was inside of a prison cell.

I appreciate everything so much more.

So I think it was, it was good for me.

Andrew and I are not religious teachers like you, but we are teachers in one way or another.

We do try to teach, you know, mental fortitude, discipline, self-accountability, strength, you know, not caving into the pressures of society, not, you know, we're very anti, you know, we're very anti people feeling sorry for themselves.

I'm really not a big fan of anyone who commits suicide.

I feel like there's always a better way to get out than do that.

And

I hadn't really been through any hardship through my rise to internet fame besides the loss of my father, which was a difficult time.

But for years and years, my life was so comfortable.

And there I am in my million-dollar house with my million-dollar cars and my $20,000 suit sitting there behind a camera saying, all right, guys, be strong and be mentally disciplined.

And it's like, well, it wasn't until I was thrown in prison.
