the host of Money Making Conversations Masterclass,

0:11

where we encourage people to stop reading other

0:13

0:16

their own. Listen up as

0:18

I interview entrepreneurs from around the country,

0:21

0:23

how they are running their companies, and speak

0:25

0:27

in their local communities. Now, sit

0:29

back and listen as we unlock the secrets

0:31

to their success on Money Making Conversations

0:34

Masterclass. Hi,

0:36

everybody, I'm Rushan McDonald host this

0:39

weekly Money Making Conversation Masterclass

0:41

show. The interviews and information that

0:43

this show provides off everyone. It's

0:45

time to stop reading other people's success stories

0:47

and start living your own. My guess is

0:50

a global brand architects, strategists

0:52

and marketer with offices in New York

0:54

City, Dubai, and Saudi Arabia.

0:56

Please welcome to Money Making Conversations Master

0:58

Class. All Maryland

1:00

Crawford, Our Lady, Maryland

1:03

Crawford, Please welco with the show. How

1:05

you doing?

1:06

I'm absolutely fantastic.

1:08

Well, first of all, what city are yet?

1:12

I had to I'm in New York.

1:15

I want to get that cleared up right, dock peered

1:18

up right.

1:18

Now, that's very sad that I had to look.

1:21

So we have offices in New York City,

1:23

Dubai, and Saudi

1:25

Arabia. How yes, explain

1:28

that to me.

1:30

It's my journey of professionalism.

1:33

I never met a stranger, and

1:35

so I have offices in those places

1:38

because I have absolutely incredible

1:40

partnerships and partners

1:43

who we created these

1:46

opportunities together that allow

1:48

us to reach really a

1:51

magnitude of people for plethora

1:53

of reasons. So in Dubai,

1:56

it started out. Matter of fact, one of my best

1:58

friends is on Real Housewives of Dubai,

2:01

two of them Saba and Sarah,

2:04

and so it started out being a friendship

2:06

and inviting me to places and business.

2:09

You know, during the height of COVID. Saba,

2:12

which people don't know, is a nanotechnologist.

2:14

She's a technology genius. So

2:17

she and I were doing in visits smart we did

2:20

for a lot of different major things

2:22

Miss America pageants, et cetera, et cetera.

2:24

And so they invited me to visit

2:27

Saba and her father invited me to visit Dubai.

2:29

You know, Middle Eastern people are very

2:31

much into families and

2:33

if they invite you to meet their family, that means

2:35

they respect you, they want a relationship with

2:37

you, and they revere you

2:40

know their parents.

2:41

UH.

2:41

And so we had the

2:44

best time both

2:47

personally and professionally as

2:49

she introduced.

2:50

Me to other people.

2:51

And then in Dubai, my

2:54

my contacts really grew. Abdulla

2:57

Loom is the CEO of Dubai

3:01

UH, not Dubai seven x UAE,

3:03

which is every major company a country

3:06

UH in the In the UAE, it's

3:09

equivalent to our United States Post Office,

3:11

but it's every country. And

3:13

so I met him, I

3:16

met the owners of Canoe UH,

3:19

which is next to Imar.

3:20

They're the number two largest developers

3:23

UH in the the Middle East.

3:25

Uh Saba's father is an

3:28

accredited registered accountant.

3:31

He was in Europe, he's in Dubai. So it just

3:33

spread from there. That was Dubai, but

3:35

also Africa now has been

3:37

an extension of us of me and

3:40

we have offices now in Africa and Tanzania,

3:43

UH. And I'm going over to put an office

3:45

in UH in Ghana and then a satellite

3:47

in Nigeria. And

3:50

then also we have relationships

3:54

that just keep building. You know, when someone tells

3:56

someone about you and they tell someone else

3:59

and the focus

4:02

the core capabilities of different

4:04

companies have expanded, and

4:07

my relationships

4:09

in those sectors in the goal sectors

4:12

amplified. In the platform

4:14

sector of entrepreneurism and businesses

4:17

and small businesses and megabusinesses

4:20

has amplified. In Dubai,

4:23

I have a partner Safe Ltm.

4:25

And we have over five million

4:29

followers in Dubai, so

4:31

this will be aired.

4:32

This will be aired on my platform too.

4:34

So you're going to get an extra five million

4:37

just throughout the Middle East, and that doesn't

4:39

count the people in America and your platform.

4:41

So I just can't even imagine.

4:43

But we have what we call

4:45

Alpha Global Enterprise and

4:49

from A to Z what it's a membership

4:51

only, exclusive membership for individuals

4:54

and also for corporations and whatever

4:56

you need to know from A to Z from

4:59

starting a business is to elevating

5:01

o business, to creating more revenue

5:03

with the business, to master classes

5:06

in marketing, branding,

5:08

strategic advice.

5:11

We have also the

5:15

East e commerce.

5:17

So we actually have a

5:19

lot of people.

5:19

Don't know about Goal and how to purchase Goal

5:22

and you know the ecosystem of Goals.

5:24

Merylan, I don't know about how to purchase go I

5:27

one goal. I'd heard

5:29

about gold, but I've never bought

5:32

gold. How do you buy gold?

5:34

Well, here's the thing.

5:35

A man of your caliber should

5:37

not only buy gold retail.

5:39

You should be able to invest in buy

5:42

goal abroad.

5:43

And the biggest challenge in Africa

5:47

is that, well, let me let

5:49

me share a tidbit of information.

5:52

The GDP of the world for

5:54

the last twenty

5:56

years, I'm sorry, the

5:59

last forty years, Africa

6:01

has never made the top twenty once

6:05

in every resource cobalt,

6:07

gold, platinum, silver,

6:11

rodium, copper, every

6:14

resource source is resourced from

6:16

there, and they have never

6:19

been in the top twenty GDP

6:21

in the world ever because people

6:23

go there, they rape them and

6:26

rip them off and come back, repackage

6:29

it and sell it to Europe,

6:31

to Australia to wherever.

6:34

And what happens also.

6:36

Is they haven't even taken advantage of the agriculture

6:39

there. So now you have outside foreigners

6:42

from different countries coming in

6:44

and buying up ports and buying

6:47

up entire

6:50

industries. And so that's why

6:52

I'm so proud of what we've been able

6:54

to do just with the gold industry.

6:57

Now will you be able to do with the gold

6:59

industry because you know, we're starting to

7:01

tell me how to buy go and then we start

7:03

talking about, you know, being the Africa

7:06

is not being recognized because people are pill

7:08

for in the country, which we all know has been

7:10

true. You have so many

7:13

graphs that go over there and corporate

7:15

backers that go over there. But from

7:18

one stage of how to purchase goal and

7:20

then also how to be able

7:22

to manipulate decisions, so it can be advantageous

7:25

to a person or everyday person to

7:27

participate.

7:29

Here's two ways you can purchase

7:31

goal. One is you can purchase

7:33

the kilos. Two

7:36

you can purchase expired bullion.

7:39

Three you can purchase it from our.

7:41

Website, which will be up July one.

7:43

I'm sorry July thirtieth, but

7:46

let me just tell you here's the challenge.

7:49

When you're outsider, you go there

7:51

and just like any other business, there could be

7:53

scams and all this other stuff. So

7:56

to eliminate that, we actually

7:58

bought gold mine licenses

8:01

so we actually own the

8:04

goal mine number one. Number

8:06

two is we're building

8:08

refineries and we have partnerships

8:11

with refineries that are already there,

8:14

but we're building more modern refineries.

8:18

Number three, we have

8:20

been approached by so many people when

8:22

they found out there's an honest, good

8:25

African American group doing

8:27

this that want to partner

8:30

with us and supply us with gold

8:32

from the minds.

8:33

They've worked the minds because they're getting

8:35

ripped off.

8:36

They get twenty percent

8:38

of what they bring out, whereas we offer them

8:40

way over that amount,

8:43

way over.

8:44

Okay. And then the other

8:46

thing that's very important is sometimes.

8:49

If you buy Goal there and you don't have

8:51

a reputable organization, by the

8:53

time it gets to you here, it has

8:55

gone through customs, has gone through whatever, and

8:58

it's not pure. It's not that twenty

9:00

four carrot, it's not that ninety eight pens.

9:04

I'll leave it to your imagination. But

9:08

things happen, okay. So you

9:10

want an organization such as w

9:13

h Musa Ventures,

9:16

which is I'm president and CEO. You

9:18

want an organization like that that guarantees

9:21

your product so

9:24

you can buy. For instance,

9:26

I don't know what the goal is sells today.

9:28

A few days back it was eighty three thousand dollars

9:30

a kilo. But over there,

9:33

okay, you can probably get it for

9:36

sixty seventy thousand dollars a kilo. Okay,

9:39

And that means you've taken good care of the people

9:41

who are in the minds working. You've taken

9:44

good care of the equipment they need. You've

9:46

taken good care of the right licenses,

9:48

the certifications, the security

9:50

and transporting it, the vault

9:53

and holding it and all things

9:55

up around that.

9:56

Yes, that's that's how you buy goal

9:59

mine.

10:00

Now, can I ask this question?

10:03

Who are you?

10:06

I'm a product of Lillian and Timothy Crawford

10:08

from Lancas to South Carolina. My father

10:11

was a janitor, my mother was a cook, and

10:13

they were the most important people

10:15

in my life.

10:16

And the smartest people I know.

10:17

My father had a PhD in life

10:20

and a second grade education, so

10:23

everything that I know he taught me.

10:25

And all these other degrees I have.

10:26

These academic degrees, they're wonderful,

10:28

don't get me wrong.

10:29

They opened a lot of doors, you.

10:31

Know, from Masters at USC

10:33

to undergrad a USC to Harvard strategic

10:36

business and what is it

10:38

the marketing, etc.

10:40

They're wonderful.

10:41

But my foundation comes

10:43

from a little town in South Carolina,

10:45

and from my family. I

10:48

was known as the chosen one when I was growing

10:50

up.

10:50

Now I'm fair for me with South Carolina.

10:53

What little town in South Carolina.

10:55

Lake's to South Carolina.

10:57

Where's that.

11:00

Kakilaki? It's twenty minutes

11:02

from Charlotte, North Carolina.

11:03

Oh, I know exactly what I said. That's

11:07

right, right, right, because I've been all

11:09

up. I used to do stand up comedy,

11:11

and so I used to all over Dark Carolina,

11:14

South Carolina, performing in one nighters

11:16

and the big city Charlotte and

11:18

the big city, you know, Greenville

11:21

and all of so. It was a lot of fun

11:23

and great food, by the way, in the low country

11:25

of South Carolina. Great food. I

11:27

look at the but I look at the person like you,

11:30

you know, worldly, you

11:33

have to be a person that really mentors

11:36

a lot of individuals into a

11:39

position to where you at. How

11:41

does one create a relationship

11:43

with our lady, Maryland

11:46

Crawford.

11:48

I'm going to be very truthfully

11:50

honest. I've mentioned over one hundred

11:52

and seven individuals.

11:53

Personally, I am tired. And

11:57

what happened is.

11:59

When I I was at the height of my business, I had

12:01

an office at forty five Broadway and a home

12:04

on forty five Warren that was the size

12:06

of a football field.

12:07

It was one of those lofts, right.

12:09

So Harvard University brought down an

12:11

entire class sixty five people

12:14

for a day of mentoring with me. And

12:17

then beyond that, I felt my

12:20

commitment and obligation to my HBCU

12:24

young people to help mentor them. So

12:27

as people came to work for me in my office,

12:29

they've gone on to do incredible

12:32

things or work

12:34

with me in my business.

12:38

Miata and Masa David who

12:41

do incredible stuff

12:43

globally, they worked

12:46

with me initially in the Hamptons

12:48

to do stuff. Then you have people

12:51

that have been in my office as

12:53

a receptionists, as secretaries,

12:56

as account assistants,

12:58

and they've gone on to start their own branding

13:01

businesses. So I'm

13:03

very proud of that mentorship.

13:06

It's very exhausting, you know, it's

13:08

a twenty four to seventh thing. But I

13:10

always think that when you are given much,

13:12

you should give back even more.

13:14

Please don't go anywhere. We'll

13:16

be right back with more Money Making Conversations

13:19

Masterclass. Welcome

13:27

back to the Money Making Conversations Masterclass

13:30

hosted by Rashaan McDonald.

13:33

Because when you receive it, you know I'm

13:36

gonna be honest with you. Never been to Dubai

13:38

as one of your offices and Dubayu you's in New York

13:40

City, you said, Dubai, you

13:42

said, saw the radio. I'm talking to lady Marilyn

13:45

Crawford. She's a chumpson one

13:47

because of her relationship. What I really

13:49

have in my research of you,

13:51

you understand the value of relationship in

13:54

the area of communication and also

13:56

commitment. Those are part of your

13:58

brands that is establish you over the years.

14:01

14:04

and we are established in your relationships.

14:06

To buy tell my audience

14:08

about to buy and why is it such a staple

14:11

or the most visited place in the world.

14:15

Well, the Sheikh has created

14:18

utopia, He's created

14:20

paradise.

14:22

You can leave your pocketbook with one hundred

14:24

thousand dollars sticking out of it on top of

14:26

a car for two weeks and go

14:28

back and it's still there. The

14:31

service, and I

14:33

don't call him service, I said, the service from

14:36

the people who help you with your

14:38

daily routine, with your serving

14:41

your food, et cetera, et cetera.

14:43

Is impeccable, bar none.

14:45

You never hear Ray's voice, You

14:48

never hear a disagreement. Never, And

14:50

I've been over there on multiple occasions.

14:53

Okay, The safety

14:56

of the woman, the safety

14:58

of the woman, you can go walk anywhere

15:00

you want by yourself, any

15:02

time you want.

15:04

The safety is bar

15:07

none.

15:08

The the business,

15:11

they don't allow people

15:14

to just come over and open an account.

15:17

They do their due diligence

15:19

on you.

15:20

And the business that is done there

15:22

is solid, substantial business.

15:25

And and people's word is

15:27

their bond and then they put

15:29

it in in in writing. So

15:33

what he's created the magnificence

15:36

of the number one city

15:38

in the world with.

15:40

So much futuristic.

15:42

I mean, I can be standing in the park

15:44

and have a pizza delivered to me by air.

15:48

I can I can go to.

15:52

Uh, my friend's house, which is

15:54

there's a there's an area that he only

15:56

gives to uh.

15:58

Well, let me put it this way.

15:59

There nine thousand citizens

16:02

in Dubai, right, but there are

16:04

only one thousand that

16:06

are original. The eight

16:08

thousand are expay pats okay, so

16:11

who have come there to seek out this beautiful

16:13

light.

16:14

So I can go.

16:16

And actually live there, that.

16:18

Actually lived there. Yes,

16:23

I am, I'm an ex pat. I wasn't born there.

16:26

Yeah. Yeah.

16:27

The thousand that that were born there are

16:30

are are residents forever.

16:32

We have to get golden residency and

16:35

things of that nature, you know, which

16:37

which can be a dual residency with USA,

16:40

and you get it through going through the proper channels,

16:44

either investing in a business, investing in

16:46

real estate, or you know, or

16:48

with your capabilities of what you've already

16:50

brought as value to Dubai.

16:54

There's

16:57

so much.

16:59

High level elevated thinking

17:02

for technology, for innovation, for

17:04

real estate, for science, for

17:07

art.

17:07

Fashion, you name

17:09

it. So it is. It is really

17:12

the place to go to elevate

17:14

your mind, to

17:16

embrace your soul and your spirit, and

17:19

also to elevate your business. Wow.

17:22

You know when I think about business,

17:25

you know, there's so many different oppositis of the here.

17:27

You have United States, you have Africa, and

17:29

you just talked about Africa. But there's so many stereotypes

17:32

because we don't know, especially when it comes

17:34

to the cunture of Africa. You know, you believe

17:36

that comfory, no technology exists,

17:39

there's backwards. The

17:42

people of our color of constantly

17:44

and war tell us the true story of

17:46

Africa.

17:48

I am so glad you asked that.

17:50

One of my partners in Word Holdings

17:53

International is.

17:54

A god by the name of Lord Ward.

17:57

That probably sounds familiar to a lot of your audience

18:00

because he was one of the few CEOs,

18:04

first CEOs of Fortune five hundred

18:06

companies. He was Maytag and then Freedo

18:09

La right, and before that he

18:11

was an executive for.

18:12

Many years with Procter and Gamble. Lloyd

18:16

took the knowledge that he learned and

18:20

took it home to.

18:21

Africa about

18:24

the distribution system, the sustainable

18:26

system, the agriculture system, the marketing

18:28

system, etc. And

18:30

he has launched a two

18:33

billion dollar IPO

18:36

that is valued at eight billion

18:39

dollars.

18:40

And he's one of the only people in the world

18:43

that got fifteen African countries.

18:45

To sign on for one product.

18:48

And guess what that product is?

18:51

Is it water?

18:52

Nope?

18:55

Gold?

18:56

You want me to tell you, go, oh good tail

18:58

man, No not go cashews,

19:01

cashews, the dust.

19:03

Cashews, the nut.

19:06

We consume the nut, but we don't

19:08

realize how valuable that nut

19:10

is and what can be extracted from

19:13

that nut. Matter of fact,

19:15

I'm going to introduce him to you because he needs to

19:17

just do a whole masterclass on the

19:20

agriculture there.

19:21

But here's the thing.

19:23

Here's the thing which is so important

19:26

is that he engaged

19:29

a collaboration. And that's

19:32

why I say my people, my black people,

19:34

my African people, my African American

19:36

people, get.

19:37

Out of your own way.

19:39

Four hundred years of processing has

19:41

said to us, to you and

19:43

me, that we're not good enough, that

19:46

we need to be validated by white folks,

19:49

that we need to be validated by the white

19:52

culture. Create your own

19:54

culture, content, create your own businesses.

19:57

And that's what he's.

19:58

Done for Africa, and that's what we're doing in the gold

20:00

business too.

20:01

But the first.

20:02

Agriculture that we're really

20:05

mastering is the cashing business.

20:07

But then we also have four or five

20:09

IPOs down the line. We're going to be

20:11

doing coffee, We're going to be doing

20:14

avocado, We're going to be doing all of

20:16

them. But we're going to be doing

20:18

them where they benefit Africans.

20:21

Wow, where they benefit. The money

20:23

goes back in.

20:25

That is always the story, right, getting

20:27

it back in, recycling the money where it's

20:29

thoughts. And that's the problem with that you said

20:31

earlier. The money is taken out

20:34

and is never recycled, wh doesn't create jobs,

20:37

doesn't fay taxes, And that's what you

20:39

are. Just a country just can't

20:41

grow, right, It can't grow

20:43

because the taxes not benefiting anybody.

20:46

Because the asset

20:48

that they deliver is carried out.

20:50

You're absolutely right. But

20:53

here's the thing.

20:54

When you see Africa, when you arrive

20:57

there and you see certain parts of Africa, you

20:59

know it's obvious the infrastructure

21:01

has not been taken care of. Okay, the

21:05

the what do you call the

21:08

where the where the babies are? The

21:10

orphanages, the orphanages, and

21:12

also the schools and also technology

21:15

academies and et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

21:18

We're showing them how

21:20

they don't have to ask for money.

21:23

You have the resources. This

21:25

is how you monetize.

21:26

Your own resources so that you're not

21:28

beholding to anyone. We're

21:31

making Africans independent

21:35

and so I am so excited

21:38

about this. I got so excited about

21:40

this that I decided to invite

21:42

one hundred African

21:45

billionaires and millionaires and

21:47

one hundred global billionaires

21:50

and millionaires to Las Vegas

21:53

during the week of the CEES,

21:55

the Consumer Electronics Show, so

21:57

that they're over there at.

21:58

The largest November January.

22:01

January first week of January.

22:03

They will be here for the largest show

22:05

in America.

22:06

Now Here was the challenge. A lot of

22:08

them didn't have visus, So what

22:10

do you do?

22:11

You go to the State Department

22:13

and you say, hey, here's some billionaires

22:16

who want to come and learn innovation.

22:19

There's an opportunity to co invest with them,

22:21

and.

22:21

They need visus.

22:22

You get all the legal paperwork

22:25

and you get them visus and then you hire

22:27

a boy seven

22:30

fifty seven, which is over a million

22:32

dollars, and you take those hundred

22:34

people and you say, fifty of you guys want

22:37

to come on the plane. Here's how much it costs each.

22:39

You put them on their private plane and you bring them over

22:41

here.

22:44

Can you tell everybody about that event this in

22:46

January? Because I know that electronics

22:48

that's an amazing that's where you tap

22:50

into all the that

22:53

even it a absolutely

22:55

any type of technology that may be

22:58

coming out or maybe ten years

23:00

or five years from coming out, all will be

23:02

coming out is available at that technology

23:04

center. Please tell them about it.

23:06

Well, here's the thing there.

23:08

They do the CEES Consumer

23:11

Electronics Show in several

23:13

countries, but the one in Las

23:15

Vegas is the largest, and for

23:18

US in America, it's the most successful

23:21

acccessible. Yeah right, So

23:23

here's the thing. Everybody's

23:26

going to be there. CEOs

23:29

from Fortune five hundred companies, the

23:31

most genius people in technology

23:34

throughout the world, the

23:36

people who keep data, the people

23:38

who keep culture content for all

23:41

cultures.

23:42

Everyone is there. So

23:44

they're there for a week.

23:46

So I was saying, instead of me doing

23:49

a summit in Africa or somewhere

23:51

else, you know, in the world

23:53

and inviting them, why not invite them where

23:56

the center is, where

23:58

the nucleus is of innovation

24:01

and technology for one week. So

24:03

if your listeners are listening,

24:05

they should even try to go if they're into

24:08

technology and innovation. And right

24:10

now today anybody who has any

24:12

kind of business has to be into it. In any

24:14

kind of business. About two years

24:17

ago, a year and a half ago, I

24:19

was approached and met some people, two

24:22

people.

24:23

They happened to not be the same color

24:25

as me.

24:26

And they said, oh my god, you have so many contacts,

24:29

you have so much going on, and we're doing

24:31

things internationally, and we have goal

24:34

and we have this, and we have that. And

24:36

they were in a place

24:38

that was a stable place, meaning

24:42

the building right the

24:45

offices, and so they asked

24:47

me to do an equity and

24:49

equities fun with them. So

24:52

I said, okay, everybody brings something to the

24:54

table.

24:54

Etc.

24:56

So I said, and I'm talking

24:58

about this a little premature because I'm probably going to I

25:00

have to go to the legal way with them soon.

25:02

Okay.

25:03

But but I have nothing, nothing

25:05

to hide and nothing to lose from

25:07

them because I'm the one who brought the value.

25:10

So they said to me, Okay,

25:13

we're gonna need some seed money for accounting

25:16

for legal purposes, uh,

25:19

you know, uh, for expenses.

25:21

Et cetera.

25:22

I said, okay, how much do we need? They said, oh, about

25:24

a half a million dollars. I said, no problem, okay. So

25:26

I raised the hunt a half million dollars and

25:29

I said, okay, everybody else raised money, et

25:31

cetera. And so and then

25:33

I said, you bring your resources to the table,

25:35

people who want to put money in the equity fund, and

25:38

I'll bring mine. Fast

25:40

forward a year and a half later, they brought nothing

25:43

zero okay

25:46

uh. And I asked

25:48

for a forensic accounting along

25:50

the way. Give me a forensic accounty,

25:53

give me transactions,

25:55

give me a profit and laws statement, give me, give

25:58

me the bank statement. Give me everything right because

26:00

I like.

26:01

To keep everything clean and above board.

26:04

Okay. Uh.

26:06

They tell me, oh, well, well, we

26:08

don't understand why you why you need that?

26:10

I said, excuse me.

26:13

Business, don't make me quote business

26:16

one on one. So we we meet

26:18

our attorney and they say to

26:21

me they've been doing informal

26:23

accounting.

26:24

I said, well, I never heard of that.

26:26

That's new to me. Uh.

26:29

The only informant accounting.

26:30

I know is is fraud and scam

26:32

and laundering whatever it is.

26:34

But I ain't never heard of it. Right.

26:36

So, to make a long story short, to this day,

26:39

they have not supplied me with the financial

26:42

resolutions that I have asked for.

26:45

So I put it in writing to them on several

26:47

occasions. And now I have to take

26:49

it to the next step because you cannot do

26:53

a company and not

26:55

use.

26:55

The funds for what it was meant to be used

26:58

for.

26:59

And I have an impeccable reputation

27:02

which I plan to keep for the rest of my life.

27:04

Right, And so what I did

27:06

is I formed my own equities

27:09

company and we

27:11

will be taking in money

27:13

and I will be signing off on every

27:16

single transaction.

27:18

Wow, she's the chosen one. She's

27:20

the person that moving

27:23

a shaker. That term has been applied to you for

27:25

more importantly, a person who has offices

27:27

in New York City. Dupai

27:31

and Saudi Arabia. Lady Maryland

27:33

Crawford, thank you for coming. No money making conversation. Now

27:35

let me tell you something. I'm the You've

27:38

cracked open the door of information,

27:41

swung the door wide open based on curiosity.

27:44

So I want to invite you down

27:47

to Atlanta. So let's do a one on one interview.

27:49

Can we do that?

27:50

You got it?

27:51

You got it one hundred percent, and you know, you

27:53

know what else we have to do.

27:54

We have to swing that doing Africa wide

27:57

open for our people.

27:58

I would do that.

28:01

I love. I've been down to South

28:03

Africa, Durban, and

28:05

uh, it's amazing. That's why I was talking

28:07

about stereotypes. There's so many stereotypes

28:09

where you'll realize that when I went to Derbert,

28:12

it was like landing in Atlanta, Georgia. That's

28:15

how it is. You have cars,

28:18

you have roads of clean. They

28:20

got that old stereotype that

28:23

black people are just savages.

28:27

They're selling that story and that's why I want to keep

28:29

telling the story by interviews like this, but

28:31

also by visiting myself and also

28:33

providing technology and opportunities. Thank you
