Thank you, guys, for sticking with us. I see you guys are continuing to have your comments in the comment section, and we just love it here at Speed Moving Your Formula that you guys are still having a conversation and that you're tuned in and you're listening actively about what we're talking about. You're starting to take the courses that are tailored towards your needs. Guys, we continue to move the needle. We continue to be the missing piece in connecting you to the land of the unknown. For most people, generational wealth was taboo. And I think in the last, like, since coming out of the pandemic, in the last, like, year or two years, there's been this new wave of you can give 50K from a bank, you can start your business, you can have 18 streams of income. And I think all of that is imperative to being able to sustain generations that are fluent in having at one year's old where they're being added as authorized users on our credit cards. By age five, they're having $30,000 to $50,000 in their educational high-yield savings account. By eight and ten years old, they're starting businesses that are tailored towards what they actually are passionate about as children. By 10 and 12 years old, they are starting to have podcasts and generate digital money. By 18 years old, they have good credit. They have millions of dollars or a million dollars plus. They have business plans. They have stock investments. They have portfolios and assets that's allocated towards their long-term goal of eventually what's going to be retirement. Now, I do not believe in retirement. I don't believe God, when he created people, he was like, give them jobs and this is the age that they will retire. No, I believe you work and you're passionate about what you're passionate about until you can't do it anymore. You know, I feel like you should flourish and you should get to an age. Most people, what I realize is, like, by age 44, 43 people are really living in their prime. And I think that that's for the generation that was before us. But I feel like as a 30-plus community that we have the responsibility, especially if we have children. Generational wealth is definitely for our children. And if we have children, then we are needing the resources to them or getting the resources to them by providing ourselves with the knowledge so that they are not continuing to grow up by the age 18, go off to college with taking out Perkins loans, federal loans, and things like that, but they're able to actually generate their own wealth, have educational funds they may need, that they will need, and then being able to afford to go to colleges with scholarship monies based off of what they are able to accumulate and get from their education. So we want to make sure that we are establishing generational wealth at one and not at 18. That is a 20-year difference in a person being pushed off of the, as I see in my last episode, having a deck, a yacht, and a life jacket versus being pushed off to the ocean and sand, get to the other side. It's kind of hard to tell a person to pull themselves up by the bootstraps if they don't have any boots, and that's what we've been told from slavery. And we were still able to make it not only be freed as slaves, but we were able to become freed, and then we were able to buy the land that we were once toiling and become generational wealthy by toiling the land, providing our children with jobs, and teaching ourselves how to make products. Madam C.J. Walker became a millionaire in those times because she started off as a tub washer, and she moved to the kitchen. And once she moved to the kitchen and seeing that she had to prepare food, she took time to study what she was making. She took time, and she saw she was losing her hair from stress and sadness and depression and, you know, stress and worry and trauma. She started to put those fruits into her hair, and before you knew it, she was selling her formula outside on the streets for 25 cents. But then before you knew it, she had a factory, and she had workers, and she had educational systems set up where she was teaching women about their hair, about their beauty, and then she started to have conferences and seminars based off her teaching model and showing other women how to become successful. I don't think that it's far-fetched to say that you can become a millionaire in today's society. It's not far-fetched at all because, you know, a million dollars is only $276 a day. So if you can sell a product, 25 products a day, you're already looking at six figures for that month because you don't want to spend. And then what you don't want to do is seduce yourself down to trading your time for money. You want to live in your purpose and use your money to continue to be abundant in the world and provide resources to people who are, you know, whatever you're passionate about. You know, if you're a nonprofit about technology, if you're a nonprofit about men being able to have financial literacy, there are so many different areas in your life that you have been affected by that you can not necessarily you profit off of, but you can profit and live in abundance based off the gifts that you're providing for somebody else. So if you're being poured into, then it's also being expected of you to pour into the next generation, the next set of people, the next. And it doesn't always have to be a big crowd. You can literally start with the people at your church. You can start with the people in your community because you never know the seed that you plant now may be what you need in 20 years when that person that you plant that seed in and show that information to, now they have a multimillion-dollar company and they bring you on as an executive officer. So you don't want to minimize your efforts and you don't want to contemporary rise and have instant gratification for what it is you believe that you deserve. You want to be intentional about the seed that you plant now because we know that God blesses and he has the supplies that we need in heaven and he blesses according to his riches, but he's not blessing a person who won't do for themselves. I believe you have to pray for what you want and you have to also work for what you want. Faith without work is dead, and we know that. So it's just time for us to make sure that we are equipping ourselves with the knowledge. At Sweetener United Formula, we have courses that are tailored towards your financial and digital literacy and your investing needs. So if there's something that you want to invest in, if there's products and stuff that you want to know about, we have step-by-step courses, e-books, webinars, master classes that are tailored for your education purposes to take the sting out, to take the scare away from you, shine away from generational wealth and having a roadmap that leads you to generational wealth. We provide that for you here at Sweetener United Formula. That's why this company is so profitable. That's why we're making strides, how we're doing at the rate in which we're doing it because we are filling in a need in our community which we were once afraid to talk about wealth, but now we're having a wealth conversation. So instead of us sitting in our living rooms talking about Creshon and Blue Face, we're sitting in our living rooms with our planners out, with our savings budgets out so that we can invest into a $10,000 property. We can then start to turn that $10,000 property into a $50,000 property, and we have a loan that we are able to come, every six people at a table with a $50,000 loan, that gives you nearly a building to build. That gives you finances to start a construction company, hire your nephews, hire your nieces, hire the people in your family to run the company. I think you have to start to shape your mindset and go beyond what looks normal and start to read and visualize outside of the lines because God is always moving. He doesn't need what your circumstances to look like to make it work. God can change your situation instantly, and He can do it. Not only can He do it, He will do it for those who are faithful, true, honest, believing Him for something new, believing Him for something that they never seen before. He can do exceedingly abundantly above what we can ask for things. So when you're working your hand and you're working and you're working, He will meet you where you are. He doesn't need for you to be God. He needs you to be you and for you to exceed and use the gifts that He supplied you with. Every person is different. You can't tell a hand that the arm is not important. You can't tell the elbow that the shoulder is not important. In order for an arm to fully work, we need the fingers, the wrist, the hand, the humerus, the collarbone, the shoulder socket. We need every piece and part to make a hand motion. And I think that when people start to realize that their small steps are what we need to build generational wealth, they're one decision you make to stop giving your money to Starbucks, I just say Starbucks, and you start to save $150 a month, that $150 a month can go towards a $500,000 life insurance policy, whole life insurance policy, universal life insurance policy. And I think that when you start to value, you have to value your small decisions. You have to value your ability to make one small change because we know that a tree is not going to be knocked down because you hit it with the ax one time. But if you continue to hit a tree in the same spot, it's going to eventually come down because it has to. That's just the law, the land of the law, the law of the living.
