Coming up on Keep It Positive, Sweetie. We live in a culture where everyone is trying to teach, have all these courses and things like that. How did you cultivate your course to make sure that people understood it's not a scam? Because there's a lot of people out here really scamming people. How did you really build that and say, I'm going to keep this integral and make sure that I'm teaching people and that they get what they need out of it? I'd use the same mentality that we had in the streets. It was give it away for free.
Wow. Wow.
Give it away for free. And if it's good for free, they'll pay for it.
Hi, I'm Chris Rene Hazlitt, and this is Keep It Positive, Sweetie, a safe space to heal, laugh, grow, and love. In last week's show, I talked about creating and maintaining a money-making mindset with Camille Rose, founder and CEO, Janelle Stephens, and serial entrepreneur, The Wall Street Trapper. My conversation with The Wall Street Trapper was so layered, it took us a little extra time to get through it all. So this show is a continuation of that conversation. You are world renowned for your financial tips. My brother actually called me It was a few years ago. I didn't even know who you were. He called me. He said, hey, sis, like I really probably during COVID. He's like, I want to learn about stocks and bonds and about finance. And he was like, there's this guy named Wall Street Trapper. And I paid for him. Did not know you, but I paid for him to take classes so that he could learn more. And then later on, we have mutual friends. And I was like, that's the And he was like, you know, like, oh my gosh. So yeah, you, where did that even come from?
Like the, to learn about finances and then to say, hey, I want to spread this and teach people. Wow. And I'm staring down a 10 year bid. And I wound up having this fight with this guy, my two guys. So it was me and two guys. And then the CO came and, you know, we go to the hole, we go to solitary confinement. They put me in a cell with this white dude. And I'm so frustrated because I thought they was my homies. But I realized quick that in prison, like that don't work like that. Really? Yeah, it don't work like that. And the guy looked at me with like pure frustration.
The white guy.
And he was like, man, y'all playing the wrong game. Now, mind you, we in prison. So, like, you in here with me, so you must be playing the same game I'm playing. Yeah, what game you talking about? What you talking about? So he was like, no. He was like, how much time you got? I had just got my 10 years. He was like, what you doing 10 years from like a 10 murder on a robbery? He was like, how much money you got from it? And I was like, it wasn't about the money. He was doing 18 months for embezzlement, $2.8 million. He paid 800,000 restitution. He was able to keep $2 million. And he said, if I go home, I can do this again. and it will only give me five years next time, you'll still be doing the 10 years. And I said, so she'll know how to play that game.
He was like, nah, it's not about that. He was like the game of life. And it's something about when you hear intelligence it'll put you at a stand, it paralyzed me. And the only thing about prison is anybody can tell you anything until they show you the paperwork. So he showed it to me in black and white, and I had never saw seven figures on a piece of paper like that.
And I said, dang.
So he said, listen, he said, wealthy people stop trading time for money, they learn how to make their money work for them, and they learn how to give value to people because people will always be the asset. So that didn't make sense to me, because I never had heard it before. Like, man, I'm from the street, nigga. That's what you're talking about, man. The value of the people. They buying some dope or what, dog? And then, what we doing? Like, what you doing, bro? Like, what you talking about? And then he said, the three things that wealthy people do is... They invest in stocks because it's the easiest way to build wealth. They create a business because a business allows you to put a product in the marketplace.
