was only a problem because i let it hold me back and like actually become a problem when i just chose like consciously to not let this be a problem anymore it just went away All right, guys. One of the youngest guests I've had on out of a thousand. We got Anthony here today. 21 years old, man. Wow. And already killing it financially, too.
Yeah. I mean, when I graduated high school back in 2022, I... basically just dropped out of college and left, went across the country to do sales. And now... You jump ahead two years, and I'm running an eight-figure business doing it. Wait, you left the country, you said?
No. Back in high school, I graduated 2022. And then June 2022, I went from Ohio to Florida to do door-to-door sales. And I learned a lot doing sales. Got it. So you just left on a whim or did you have someone there doing it already? I had a mentor. Do you know Mo Fala? Yeah, he's been on the show. Small world.
He's my mentor. I just had a call with him like an hour ago. Nice. But he ran the solar company that I went to work with and stuff. But yeah, I mean, it was crazy because I went from back in high school. I didn't really speak to people. I would... literally email teachers to get out of speaking in front of the class or like it was 12th grade I had a
teacher calling me and I was just like, oh crap, why'd she call me? And then I wrote her an email and I was scared and I was like, please don't call on me ever again because I was stuttered and I was like, Jesus sucks. And then once I graduated high school, I had a couple Division I Hoffers to play football. Mm-hmm.
And I didn't go. And my parents were like, what are you doing? Like, why don't you go to school? You have all these offers. You can go to school and you don't have...
pay and I was like I'm not gonna go to the NFL like I don't want to go then yeah like because if I went to school yes I would get a degree but like it wouldn't lead to any kind of job that I wanted um so when I told my parents that I wasn't going to school they were like okay well then You got to leave. I was like, all right.
So I hit up Mo, and I was like, hey, pretty much I am getting kicked out of the house right now. I know, like, you hate college too, and I know that you – run a successful company, and what do you do? I didn't even understand what he did. How did you find his page? So he actually grew up 12 houses away from me. Oh, your neighbors? When I was a kid. He was my neighbor. I knew him. He's about...
eight years older he's in my older brother's uh grade yeah yeah and he'd hang out with him and i was like 12 years old he was in high school well yeah 12 and he was probably 20 or whatever and i'd hang out with them and i was like hey well i gotta hang out with them and then um
