**Troy** (0:01)
Yeah, yeah, we're back.
**Rashad** (0:03)
Yeah.
**Troy** (0:04)
You're back.
**Rashad** (0:05)
What's going on, y'all?
**Troy** (0:07)
Traveling mercies have been answered. You have returned.
**Rashad** (0:11)
I need an encore, y'all.
**Troy** (0:13)
You have returned.
**Rashad** (0:13)
Y'all should welcome me back.
**Troy** (0:15)
What did you say? Don't say I never told you nothing or I never helped you.
**Rashad** (0:19)
That's a fact.
**Troy** (0:20)
Welcome back, man, welcome back. We happy to have you back in the town, back in the state, back in the country. Some people were nervous, man. They were like, yo, Shadi giving up too much gain. They might not let them back, but they let you back.
**Rashad** (0:32)
Shout out to China, man. Shout out to the good folks at China. Xi Jinping and the rest of it.
**Troy** (0:39)
The whole team out there?
**Rashad** (0:40)
Comrades, man, a lot to talk about. Maybe we'll talk about some of that stuff on this conversation, because it does relate to real estate. But if you've been following what we've been doing over the last couple of months, we've been having this how-to series every few weeks where it's interviewing a professional in an area, and it's more of a critical breakdown as opposed to an interview, where we're just picking one particular topic and we're just going through it like, okay, tell me about this, tell me about that. Sometimes they have slides, and it's been really successful. We've done it on artificial intelligence. We've done it on credit. We've done it on taxes. And the first person that we did it with was Matt, MG, the mortgage guy. We did it probably like six months ago, and he did it on home buying, home buying process for like people that's buying their first home. So now we're getting up for Invest Fest, and we wanted to revisit the conversation with real estate. And this time we're going to talk about a few things that we didn't talk about last time. And we're going to talk about, you know, how to make money in real estate in some conventional ways, some non-conventional ways, some ways that you're not even thinking about. So this is going to be a good one. This is going to be a good one. So let's bring them up.
**Matt** (1:58)
Ni hao.
**Troy** (2:01)
I'm Jizzle, what's good, my guy?
**Matt** (2:03)
You know, alive and blessed. Thank God for another day. What's good, man?
**Troy** (2:07)
Everything's good, man. I think this is an important conversation. As we've grown, as our audience has grown, people have bought homes and that's great. And we've seen that increase in our communities, which is important. But the other piece is that there are people who want to invest in real estate, figure out how to make money in real estate, which is less talked about. So I'm glad we're going to be able to uncover some of that tonight, man. We appreciate you being here, brother.
**Matt** (2:29)
Now, always grateful to be on the platform. Shout out to Earn Your Leisure, the hardest working men in show business. These guys travel the world literally right now, bringing us investigative journalism at the highest levels. So please throw some gems in the comment for Rashad and Troy, because what they do, they make it look easy, but it's extremely difficult and dangerous at times too. It's some dangerous situations with giraffes and rhinos and hyenas.
So let's not let that go over your head, y'all. Shout out to Earn Your Leisure.
**Troy** (3:09)
Love is love, man. I appreciate you.
**Rashad** (3:11)
Appreciate it, my brother. So always good to have you on the program. So man, we got an announcement for Invest Fest, but I want to wait a little bit until we get into the flow of it. If you didn't watch Mark and Mondays, shame on you. But we got a lot. But I will say just quick, Invest Fest is just going crazy right now. We actually just got another person an hour ago. I didn't even get a chance to tell you that yet, but we got another person an hour ago. So the lineup is going crazy. Maybe you look at Jack Dorsey, when you look at Magic Johnson, when you look at somebody like Fawn Weaver, whose net worth is $400 million, a lot of people might not even be aware of that, but she's one of the richest black women in America. If you look at Issa Rae, legend in the game, Steve Harvey, Charlamagne tha God, Tabitha Brown, John Hope Bryant, killing it, of course, her brother, Ian Dunlap. You got 19 Keys, Pinky Cole, Matt, MG The Mortgage God, Dr. Cheyenne, Bryant, Jamal Bryant, Steven Jackson, LaRussell, Ryan Leslie. The list goes on and on and on, but get your tickets to Invest Fest. This is going to be epic. Year five, get your vendor booth. There's a few vendor booths left. Don't miss out on that opportunity to network with tens of thousands of positive, like-minded people that's powerful. It can literally change your life. So go to investfest.com, get your tickets, and hope to see everybody in Atlanta in a few months. Man, looking forward to it. So Matt, let's get into it.
