gold i a little more uh bullish on silver right now you buy the physical or you buy the physical i don't buy etfs the reason i buy physical is because i can stack it all up and i can get a line of credit against it no way i have a line of credit against my silver and gold so brilliant because then you could buy more i literally when i say i am my own bank i am my own bank
Okay, guys, got a very interesting story today. We got Ben here today from zero to $400,000 a month. Thanks for coming on, man. Appreciate it. Thanks for having me, man. Yeah, I got to hear how you pull that off because that is not an easy number to get to.
I started by losing all of it every month for a very long time. That's usually how it goes, right? Yeah, yeah. I basically, you know, when I got out of high school, I was just looking at people that were going to college and getting degrees and then coming back and working at Subway. And I'm like, man, It doesn't make much sense to me. So like, is the information college just not working?
Like if you're a doctor, a lawyer, engineer, I get it. But I'm like, man, I want to own my own business. I don't know anybody going to college that's, you know, learning from successful, you know, business professors. So I just took a minute and I'm like, you know, one thing I like is cars. I'm a huge car fanatic.
So I ended up going into sales and being in the car business for like four years taught me just the foundation of everything I use today in my business. And when I was about 22, I quit. I didn't have a college degree or not a certificate in the world.
And so I started out on my own, no money in the bank, a mortgage, a car payment, all the typical American debt, and just scraped by at a coffee table on a laptop, started my own business. And then I got into investing and learning from people that were multimillionaires and billionaires. But I went from zero to three, 350K a month and lost it. Had to build it back from scratch. I did that twice.
Damn. I went through three or four lawsuits in business. Jeez. And I learned that if you are successful in business and you've got a product or service that that industry wants... They'll just exhaust you in legal fees because they can outspend you. And so I learned my way around kind of our business legal system.
And I'm like, man, the more I can do with investments and things that are a little bit in my control with less people and less big businesses, the more passive I can create, the more it's going to have freedom for me. What did you figure out in the business legal side of things to, I guess, protect yourself better? Yeah.
Trust, super important. Have a trust. Holding companies where they're like non-disclosure states, like Wyoming, for example. LLCs, very important. Bracketing assets where, you know, if you've got a certain amount, you don't own anything. Like Sean doesn't own anything. Ben doesn't own anything, right?
