Dylan Gemelli (0:00)

I got a 15-year prison sentence. Let's just say I got caught with a plethora of cocaine.

Kevin Trudeau (0:04)

Every saint has a past, and every sinner a future.

Dylan Gemelli (0:07)

I was the most miserable I've ever been, and I made a lot of money doing it. My good qualities were used in a bad way. People always ask me, how did you overcame prison? I said, I didn't overcome shit, I caused it.

Kevin Trudeau (0:18)

Knowledge is power, but only if it's remembered, because if it's not remembered, it can't be used. You're a Christian and a spiritual person, and there's a scripture that says, Seek first the kingdom.

Dylan Gemelli (0:27)

Yeah.

Kevin Trudeau (0:27)

And everything else will be added on People like us hurt feelings, because we say what you need to hear and not what you want to hear. Your body will tell you, I'm tired. Your body will tell you, I can't go anymore. Don't listen to your body. You tell your body what to do. What's some of the biggest lies do you think about that people are being taught about making money?

Dylan Gemelli (0:42)

Where do I start?

Kevin Trudeau (0:44)

Money, you're rich, I'm rich. Health, you're stupidly healthy, because you're like 20 years old, but I'm really old, I'm 92, and I'm really healthy, and we're both really happy. I mean, we live amazing lives.

But why should anybody listen to us when it comes to making money, or being healthy, or being happy? Like, what credentials do we have?

Dylan Gemelli (1:06)

I'd say life credentials.

I don't need 900 letters after my name of learning a bunch of garbage that doesn't relate to anything that we do back and forth. I want to talk to people that have lived it. You've lived it more than me, but we've both been in those trenches, we've both been around people, seen it all, done it all.

I don't care about studies that are filtered and they're coaxed into being whatever they want it to be. I care about going through and seeing what people are going through and living it, getting real feedback, being around it, experiencing it. I don't need somebody to tell me some facade that they create. I mean, if you're not living it and you're not a part of it, what are you doing? What are you doing? I don't see the point in any of it. I'm certainly not going to listen to somebody telling me what to do that's never done anything, that's pulling it off of a textbook or what they're told. Because a lot of the people, they're being told by somebody else, that's being told by somebody else, that's never done anything. So I don't care about any of that.

Kevin Trudeau (2:06)

When it comes to making money, we were talking earlier, there's a lot of lies out there. Okay, what's some of the biggest lies do you think about that people are being taught about making money?

Dylan Gemelli (2:16)

Where do I start?

Everybody's got some sort of shortcut that leads to a longer road, or somebody's got an excuse as to whether or not making money, right? Everybody's got the next get rich quick scam, do this, take this shortcut. I mean, you've been around it now long enough, and I've been doing sales since I was born. Basically, I was born into it. So I've seen and been around everything. I mean, now everybody thinks, like with a peptide, for example, something comes out, we're going to explode and everybody's going to get rich, doesn't even know what it is, you know? And it's basically people that try to come into an industry, never been involved in it, don't know what they're doing, take advantage. What are you saying?

Kevin Trudeau (2:56)

Well, yeah, you know, there's one thing that people don't talk about. I mean, look, there's a lot of guys on the Internet, a lot of guys doing seminars, a lot of guys teaching courses, and they're making a fortune. Teaching courses and writing books or doing seminars on how to make money and how to get rich.

No one really made any money before they started teaching courses. I mean, I did $20 billion in business before I ever give a lecture on anything, right? I was always the guy behind the scenes. I never taught success. I just became ridiculously successful by applying some principles. But there's one thing, and this is why people out there know about success, but they really don't know it. They don't even know what they're really doing to succeed. They don't even know.

But here's what it is. The brain is both a receiver and transmitter of frequency. Now, we know that, right? That's okay. You get all the frequency, you get Gamma, you get Beta, you get Alpha, Theta, and Delta. So the brain vibrates or broadcasts frequencies, and it's picked up by other brains. Science knows that. So if I'm putting out a frequency, it's picked up by your brain. If you're putting out a frequency, which we both are, so we're both transmitting and receiving frequency. If two people are together, and they're on completely different frequencies, they have nothing in common.
