00:01:23,937 --> 00:01:27,844
[sterling_white]: everything is bigger and grew up in
the not so good parts of the city
38
00:01:28,225 --> 00:01:33,473
[sterling_white]: of indianapolis in single mother froturnltwin brother
and just every other day you never knew
39
00:01:33,533 --> 00:01:36,799
[sterling_white]: if you were going to make it
to the next day and at five years
40
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:41,206
[sterling_white]: old on lost my life to a
straight bullet and just sitting at the kitchen
41
00:01:41,286 --> 00:01:45,333
[sterling_white]: table eating raymond noodles and then go
upstairs with my brother and a bullet comes
42
00:01:45,433 --> 00:01:48,679
[sterling_white]: right through the back pattern where we
were sitting and that was just another day
43
00:01:48,739 --> 00:01:55,167
[sterling_white]: and living hood and as four got
into trial estate this was nineteen years old
44
00:01:55,227 --> 00:01:59,234
[sterling_white]: so this is about two thousand nine
where things just were not so getting the
45
00:01:59,314 --> 00:02:04,429
[sterling_white]: industry as a construction labor then i
read the book that poor dad which many
46
00:02:04,489 --> 00:02:05,113
[sterling_white]: are familiar with
47
00:02:05,015 --> 00:02:05,215
[casey_]: always
48
00:02:05,153 --> 00:02:05,274
[sterling_white]: that
49
00:02:05,275 --> 00:02:05,436
[casey_]: tell
50
00:02:05,314 --> 00:02:05,495
[sterling_white]: book
51
00:02:05,496 --> 00:02:05,676
[casey_]: people
52
00:02:05,616 --> 00:02:05,756
[sterling_white]: yeah
53
00:02:05,756 --> 00:02:08,743
[casey_]: stirling nobody ever mentioned that book on
this show you're the first
54
00:02:08,580 --> 00:02:09,161
[sterling_white]: not at all
55
00:02:09,605 --> 00:02:09,807
[casey_]: yeah
56
00:02:10,723 --> 00:02:14,930
[sterling_white]: so i read that book and ended
up quickly realizing that rich and wealthy people
57
00:02:15,031 --> 00:02:20,560
[sterling_white]: did not get that way by being
laborers that were actually investors and then ended
58
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,328
[sterling_white]: up getting my very first single family
house once i made that transition with no
59
00:02:25,428 --> 00:02:30,016
[sterling_white]: money out of pocket actually had no
credit actually had negative funds in my bank
60
00:02:30,096 --> 00:02:34,703
[sterling_white]: account when i first started bought a
hundred and fifty single families and then transition
61
00:02:34,964 --> 00:02:38,309
[sterling_white]: to multi family in twenty seventeen and
got up to about five hundred now so
62
00:02:38,650 --> 00:02:43,759
[sterling_white]: that's about thirty one years compressed in
about one and a half two minutes you
63
00:02:43,799 --> 00:02:44,340
[sterling_white]: would say case
64
00:02:44,695 --> 00:02:45,697
[casey_]: right that's right
65
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:45,822
[sterling_white]: yeah
66
00:02:45,837 --> 00:02:51,586
[casey_]: that's right and and you know one
thing that that jumps right out with your
67
00:02:51,626 --> 00:02:54,571
[casey_]: story is of course like you said
you called it just another day in the
68
00:02:54,631 --> 00:03:04,620
[casey_]: hood and oftentimes of course i don't
really relate all that well i mean as
69
00:03:04,740 --> 00:03:10,329
[casey_]: a as a middle aged white male
who basically my parents weren't wealthy growing up
70
00:03:10,430 --> 00:03:14,296
[casey_]: my parents weren't poor growing up but
was one portion my life where we lived
71
00:03:14,356 --> 00:03:19,571
[casey_]: in a little area that wasn't all
that wonderful but it wasn't i certainly didn't
72
00:03:20,255 --> 00:03:25,235
[casey_]: experience things like what you're talking about
and i think the majority people don't and
73
00:03:25,295 --> 00:03:30,123
[casey_]: it's very interesting to me how you
kind of have made your own opportunities and
74
00:03:30,203 --> 00:03:35,993
[casey_]: how you have have you you you
just like you woke up one day and
75
00:03:36,013 --> 00:03:40,801
[casey_]: you were like you know to hell
with this i'm gonna obviously the rich dad
76
00:03:40,881 --> 00:03:46,310
[casey_]: for dad part of it but but
what types of things this is kind of
77
00:03:46,390 --> 00:03:51,377
[casey_]: a general consensus i thought what kind
of things do you think those of us
78
00:03:52,258 --> 00:03:59,417
[casey_]: and you now could do or should
do to reach out two young kids who
79
00:03:59,558 --> 00:04:03,316
[casey_]: may not have the best of living
conditions to help
80
00:04:03,241 --> 00:04:03,364
[sterling_white]: yeah
81
00:04:03,416 --> 00:04:08,347
[casey_]: them say hey guys this is you
don't have to follow me you don't have
82
00:04:08,367 --> 00:04:13,896
[casey_]: to follow stirling but hey if you
get up show some show some fortitude show
83
00:04:14,017 --> 00:04:18,404
[casey_]: some some rest show that you want
to do something i mean i just feel
84
00:04:18,464 --> 00:04:22,753
[casey_]: like that a lot of people feel
like they get trapped in those situations
85
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:27,828
[sterling_white]: yeah i would say case is just
being in that environment you are trapped in
86
00:04:27,948 --> 00:04:30,953
[sterling_white]: how that system is set up but
don't want to go down the rabbit hole
87
00:04:30,994 --> 00:04:34,560
[sterling_white]: when it comes to that but luckily
i mean my twin brother took the comment
88
00:04:34,840 --> 00:04:39,989
[sterling_white]: path that many people do taken as
facing hard time unfortunately due to the decisions
89
00:04:40,049 --> 00:04:44,155
[sterling_white]: that ended up making but is i
ended up just i don't know if it
90
00:04:44,196 --> 00:04:49,484
[sterling_white]: was the universe some higher being or
what what it was exactly that i and
91
00:04:49,544 --> 00:04:53,591
[sterling_white]: this was actually one key moment that
happened was the people that you surround yourself
92
00:04:53,651 --> 00:04:58,099
[sterling_white]: with mother moved this out from the
inner city to more of the suburbs so
93
00:04:58,199 --> 00:05:03,067
[sterling_white]: i can letely different setting we were
still in lower income housing and affordable but
94
00:05:03,127 --> 00:05:07,294
[sterling_white]: it was just completely different friends group
however my brother
95
00:05:07,096 --> 00:05:07,260
[casey_]: yeah
96
00:05:07,354 --> 00:05:11,161
[sterling_white]: went back to that environment that we
grew up in and those same friends and
97
00:05:11,221 --> 00:05:14,787
[sterling_white]: then that was the path that he
ended up taking so one of the things
98
00:05:14,847 --> 00:05:19,975
[sterling_white]: that i would say is i've had
multiple pivotal moments in life but what happens
99
00:05:20,075 --> 00:05:23,641
[sterling_white]: is and this is a question i
have for you case is that listen i
100
00:05:23,721 --> 00:05:28,129
[sterling_white]: believe everyone and i could be wrong
with this has those moments in life and
101
00:05:28,349 --> 00:05:33,257
[sterling_white]: it's either you are fearful and you
take a step back or you embrace it
102
00:05:33,357 --> 00:05:36,685
[sterling_white]: and you end up taking step forward
so that that's
103
00:05:36,925 --> 00:05:37,151
[casey_]: well
104
00:05:37,026 --> 00:05:37,628
[sterling_white]: what happened for me
105
00:05:38,265 --> 00:05:43,313
[casey_]: do you think that do you think
that the fact that for instance you're because
106
00:05:43,353 --> 00:05:47,200
[casey_]: you see that a lot and i
hate to have a whole episode on capital
107
00:05:47,260 --> 00:05:52,878
[casey_]: raising and real estate that centers around
the economic struggles of some of the inner
108
00:05:52,958 --> 00:06:00,515
[casey_]: city kind of things that we both
know exist but i really want to go
109
00:06:00,715 --> 00:06:03,859
[casey_]: in a little bit on this and
say do you think your brother like say
110
00:06:04,060 --> 00:06:10,572
[casey_]: or people like your brother go back
to that because either a they feel like
111
00:06:10,632 --> 00:06:18,008
[casey_]: they have control in that area or
b it's tough to imagine somebody feels comfortable
112
00:06:18,369 --> 00:06:22,636
[casey_]: in something like that but but there
has to be something that's drawing them back
113
00:06:22,716 --> 00:06:27,424
[casey_]: that says hey is it is it
then maybe your brother sold drugs i don't
114
00:06:27,464 --> 00:06:28,326
[casey_]: know i'm just sayin to know a
115
00:06:28,330 --> 00:06:28,492
[sterling_white]: yeah
116
00:06:28,386 --> 00:06:32,052
[casey_]: lot of people go back because they
find that's the way they can make money
117
00:06:31,881 --> 00:06:31,902
[sterling_white]: m
118
00:06:32,513 --> 00:06:36,780
[casey_]: that's the way they can earn a
living is to to operate a corner or
119
00:06:36,860 --> 00:06:37,601
[casey_]: whatever you will
120
00:06:37,690 --> 00:06:38,875
[sterling_white]: yeah so i know there's
121
00:06:38,743 --> 00:06:43,981
[casey_]: i don't mean it just all the
the usual stuff there but i just that's
122
00:06:44,081 --> 00:06:44,823
[casey_]: kind of my thoughts
123
00:06:45,420 --> 00:06:50,388
[sterling_white]: yeah so he wasn't in drugs or
anything but i would say that is that's
124
00:06:50,649 --> 00:06:56,659
[sterling_white]: what we knew and that you tend
to be a creature of habit for lack
125
00:06:56,699 --> 00:06:56,979
[sterling_white]: of better
126
00:06:57,106 --> 00:06:57,270
[casey_]: yes
127
00:06:57,260 --> 00:06:58,742
[sterling_white]: so if that's all you know
128
00:06:58,724 --> 00:06:58,745
[casey_]: m
129
00:06:59,424 --> 00:07:04,732
[sterling_white]: and the people who are surrounding you
that's all you see and you're not exposed
130
00:07:04,833 --> 00:07:09,440
[sterling_white]: to things outside of that that was
the thing that allowed me to and ended
131
00:07:09,500 --> 00:07:14,148
[sterling_white]: up breaking away from the crowd because
i got exposed to what was possible outside
132
00:07:14,188 --> 00:07:18,595
[sterling_white]: of that so that's what i would
say is very important and i read books
133
00:07:18,636 --> 00:07:23,744
[sterling_white]: and going to history on this is
just surrounding you self and going out to
134
00:07:23,864 --> 00:07:28,151
[sterling_white]: different what is it the meat ups
or just being around different people so you
135
00:07:28,191 --> 00:07:30,796
[sterling_white]: can get different perspectives and
136
00:07:30,728 --> 00:07:31,175
[casey_]: hm
137
00:07:31,196 --> 00:07:35,243
[sterling_white]: again it's tough being in the environment
because that's all you know but
138
00:07:35,285 --> 00:07:35,569
[casey_]: oh
139
00:07:35,624 --> 00:07:39,070
[sterling_white]: that's one of the things i'm working
towards is just i mean i'm part of
140
00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:42,756
[sterling_white]: big brother's big sisters where i go
back and meant towards someone who is actually
141
00:07:43,016 --> 00:07:46,126
[sterling_white]: in that type of environment but it's
tough i would say
142
00:07:46,765 --> 00:07:51,193
[casey_]: yeah and you know and again i
think i think the common thread there that
143
00:07:51,273 --> 00:07:57,243
[casey_]: runs amongst people like yourself who don't
necessarily want to go i guess quote and
144
00:07:57,283 --> 00:08:03,418
[casey_]: quote back or what ever is the
fact that that and i guess i bring
145
00:08:03,498 --> 00:08:06,623
[casey_]: all of this back to the way
you and i live in the title of
146
00:08:06,683 --> 00:08:13,134
[casey_]: this podcast is cash flow and it
almost it almost is like getting people uncomfortable
147
00:08:13,254 --> 00:08:14,897
[casey_]: to me in with right like
148
00:08:14,784 --> 00:08:15,270
[sterling_white]: hm
149
00:08:14,957 --> 00:08:19,676
[casey_]: you take people out of what they
all will all like i'm gonna say seventy
150
00:08:19,716 --> 00:08:24,204
[casey_]: five percent of this country knows is
to get up at six o'clock drop the
151
00:08:24,244 --> 00:08:28,771
[casey_]: kids off at school at seven fifteen
be to work by eight work from eight
152
00:08:28,871 --> 00:08:34,076
[casey_]: to five or whatever right go home
cook dinner go to bed get up
153
00:08:34,081 --> 00:08:34,464
[sterling_white]: do it all
154
00:08:34,336 --> 00:08:34,798
[casey_]: tomorrow
155
00:08:34,545 --> 00:08:34,969
[sterling_white]: over again
156
00:08:35,119 --> 00:08:46,545
[casey_]: repeat and end while doing that investing
a portion of that daily money into a
157
00:08:47,327 --> 00:08:54,010
[casey_]: corporate match account the thing gets syphened
into the to the stock market to some
158
00:08:54,111 --> 00:08:55,252
[casey_]: degree somewhere right
159
00:08:56,004 --> 00:08:56,490
[sterling_white]: hm
160
00:08:56,154 --> 00:08:59,960
[casey_]: and i think that's that just seems
to be the mentality and that's why i
161
00:09:00,141 --> 00:09:04,728
[casey_]: ask you about what the mentality is
because i think the core or the base
162
00:09:05,249 --> 00:09:09,777
[casey_]: belief there is a lot the same
it's the comfort level it's the it's the
163
00:09:09,897 --> 00:09:13,723
[casey_]: hey i can do this or hey
i know to do that instead of saying
164
00:09:13,763 --> 00:09:19,307
[casey_]: hey listen i can take i can
i can do this for a couple of
165
00:09:19,367 --> 00:09:22,851
[casey_]: years like yourself like you were like
hey you entered the labor force and you
166
00:09:22,891 --> 00:09:23,572
[casey_]: were like man this
167
00:09:23,593 --> 00:09:24,060
[sterling_white]: hm
168
00:09:23,632 --> 00:09:24,152
[casey_]: isn't for me
169
00:09:24,711 --> 00:09:25,174
[sterling_white]: it was not
170
00:09:25,073 --> 00:09:25,594
[casey_]: and then
171
00:09:25,254 --> 00:09:26,300
[sterling_white]: i quickly found that out
172
00:09:27,155 --> 00:09:31,221
[casey_]: yeah and then you pivoted and you
were like okay hey i've got to make
173
00:09:31,382 --> 00:09:35,208
[casey_]: now make my own opportunities and i
think a lot of people see that as
174
00:09:35,288 --> 00:09:39,857
[casey_]: being the wall to scale is making
your own opportunities when in fact there's nothing
175
00:09:39,957 --> 00:09:43,668
[casey_]: wrong with being in your comfort zone
there's nothing wrong with working and doing this
176
00:09:43,728 --> 00:09:48,278
[casey_]: stuff but the fact of the matter
is when you're just chunking off a portion
177
00:09:48,359 --> 00:09:52,986
[casey_]: of your check every month and you're
not paying attention to what and maximizing what
178
00:09:53,086 --> 00:09:53,888
[casey_]: that's going to
179
00:09:54,710 --> 00:09:54,832
[sterling_white]: yep
180
00:09:55,190 --> 00:09:59,658
[casey_]: that's the system that's designed to work
until you're sixty five or whatever the case
181
00:09:59,718 --> 00:10:03,618
[casey_]: is right now and i anyway i
just
182
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:03,720
[sterling_white]: and
183
00:10:03,718 --> 00:10:03,919
[casey_]: that's
184
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:04,001
[sterling_white]: wall
185
00:10:03,999 --> 00:10:04,140
[casey_]: why
186
00:10:04,041 --> 00:10:04,362
[sterling_white]: streets
187
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:04,481
[casey_]: i guess
188
00:10:04,422 --> 00:10:04,503
[sterling_white]: the
189
00:10:04,581 --> 00:10:04,601
[casey_]: i
190
00:10:04,603 --> 00:10:04,683
[sterling_white]: one
191
00:10:04,682 --> 00:10:04,822
[casey_]: was
192
00:10:04,743 --> 00:10:06,188
[sterling_white]: that's really making the money on that
193
00:10:07,545 --> 00:10:11,233
[casey_]: and man they've done a fabulous job
of scaring the hell out of people into
194
00:10:11,473 --> 00:10:13,998
[casey_]: into paying them too you know what
i'm saying like
195
00:10:13,890 --> 00:10:15,602
[sterling_white]: oh yeah
196
00:10:15,601 --> 00:10:15,742
[casey_]: it's
197
00:10:15,704 --> 00:10:15,846
[sterling_white]: it's
198
00:10:15,782 --> 00:10:16,543
[casey_]: just you don't want to
199
00:10:17,190 --> 00:10:19,554
[sterling_white]: and this is the thing that i've
been constantly just
200
00:10:19,546 --> 00:10:19,728
[casey_]: yes
201
00:10:19,614 --> 00:10:25,003
[sterling_white]: working on case is awareness that is
and especially during the times that we're currently
202
00:10:25,083 --> 00:10:28,609
[sterling_white]: in as i am using this as
a learning lesson to see what's going on
203
00:10:28,769 --> 00:10:33,457
[sterling_white]: to me how people are reacting and
on this because when i was younger as
204
00:10:33,557 --> 00:10:39,066
[sterling_white]: i didn't have the awareness understanding human
nature why people do this versus that what's
205
00:10:39,126 --> 00:10:45,337
[sterling_white]: going on micro economic that way you
can be a foot i would say you
206
00:10:45,377 --> 00:10:48,863
[sterling_white]: would be ahead of everyone else but
just going back to your example is that
207
00:10:49,203 --> 00:10:53,551
[sterling_white]: just being in the right race or
chucking your money into mutual funds again national
208
00:10:53,591 --> 00:10:57,337
[sterling_white]: that is if you don't have the
awareness in going above beyond that you can
209
00:10:57,397 --> 00:11:01,624
[sterling_white]: realize that well the only people that
are making very minimal on this and at
210
00:11:01,744 --> 00:11:05,871
[sterling_white]: some point is there's actually more risk
involved with that you actually look at this
211
00:11:05,951 --> 00:11:09,217
[sterling_white]: other alternative but this goes back to
what you were saying as people just tend
212
00:11:09,258 --> 00:11:09,859
[sterling_white]: to be comfortable
213
00:11:10,625 --> 00:11:13,469
[casey_]: yeah and they tend to and honestly
they tend to just not know any better
214
00:11:13,529 --> 00:11:17,937
[casey_]: as far as that's concerned to now
that it's funny i bring it up on
215
00:11:17,977 --> 00:11:21,984
[casey_]: this show all the time the fact
that you and real estate indicators capital ages
216
00:11:22,004 --> 00:11:26,671
[casey_]: whatever you want o cal as um
which by the way it's my understanding that
217
00:11:27,052 --> 00:11:30,778
[casey_]: it's getting that it's getting really close
to the time where we need to stop
218
00:11:30,958 --> 00:11:36,167
[casey_]: using the term capital raiser i think
from from s c c compliance standpoint i
219
00:11:36,207 --> 00:11:40,534
[casey_]: think it puts a huge target on
your back but anyway that you and i
220
00:11:40,795 --> 00:11:47,286
[casey_]: have to as as as real estates
indicators we've got to stop at very corner
221
00:11:47,406 --> 00:11:50,892
[casey_]: at every path at every stop sign
at every worm cross in the road and
222
00:11:50,952 --> 00:11:55,960
[casey_]: disclose disclose disclose disclose disclose then we
have to disclose that we disclosed all of
223
00:11:56,020 --> 00:11:56,922
[casey_]: that right
224
00:11:57,303 --> 00:11:57,444
[sterling_white]: yep
225
00:11:57,823 --> 00:12:03,733
[casey_]: and yet you can go out and
you can invest in one two six funded
226
00:12:03,813 --> 00:12:10,064
[casey_]: number one two six seven three two
z q as much as you want and
227
00:12:10,124 --> 00:12:15,395
[casey_]: burney made can run off with your
money and you're like nobody ever told me
228
00:12:15,415 --> 00:12:20,242
[casey_]: that could happen and so i find
it funny that the wall street has has
229
00:12:20,622 --> 00:12:28,168
[casey_]: barricaded itself into this bubble and now
that's what makes people feel comfortable because anything
230
00:12:28,228 --> 00:12:31,733
[casey_]: outside of that bubble has got to
be whatever right
231
00:12:32,490 --> 00:12:33,251
[sterling_white]: i mean great job
232
00:12:33,199 --> 00:12:33,341
[casey_]: um
233
00:12:33,351 --> 00:12:37,358
[sterling_white]: on them from a sales and building
that that product that could i mean that
234
00:12:37,418 --> 00:12:40,663
[sterling_white]: even goes into other areas such as
college but i don't even want to go
235
00:12:41,204 --> 00:12:43,929
[sterling_white]: and put on my tin fool hat
because that's a rat hole that we can
236
00:12:43,989 --> 00:12:44,329
[sterling_white]: go down
237
00:12:45,075 --> 00:12:46,516
[casey_]: i understand i understand
238
00:12:46,290 --> 00:12:46,635
[sterling_white]: oh
239
00:12:46,576 --> 00:12:51,520
[casey_]: yea and the thing is that that
you know sterling you and i and everybody
240
00:12:51,580 --> 00:12:55,904
[casey_]: else in our industry has a responsibility
to to some degree
241
00:12:56,670 --> 00:12:58,020
[sterling_white]: oh
242
00:12:57,086 --> 00:13:01,978
[casey_]: you know kind of kind of boil
it all down and get the get the
243
00:13:02,038 --> 00:13:02,759
[casey_]: reduction of
244
00:13:02,700 --> 00:13:02,983
[sterling_white]: oh
245
00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:09,410
[casey_]: what this business actually is and how
it can assist you in your retirement goals
246
00:13:10,111 --> 00:13:16,541
[casey_]: instead of these co mplicated analysis is
of well this capital stack is this and
247
00:13:16,581 --> 00:13:16,701
[casey_]: then
248
00:13:16,620 --> 00:13:17,422
[sterling_white]: waterfall
249
00:13:16,741 --> 00:13:18,203
[casey_]: you're gonna on his percentage
250
00:13:17,623 --> 00:13:18,526
[sterling_white]: hurtle rates
251
00:13:18,583 --> 00:13:18,744
[casey_]: yeah
252
00:13:18,666 --> 00:13:19,368
[sterling_white]: all this yeh
253
00:13:19,605 --> 00:13:23,191
[casey_]: when in fact people are like no
how can you help me sterling how can
254
00:13:23,231 --> 00:13:26,336
[casey_]: you help me get out of i
don't i don't want to get out of
255
00:13:26,396 --> 00:13:30,042
[casey_]: my comfort one sterling i want to
stay right here but i also want to
256
00:13:30,102 --> 00:13:34,186
[casey_]: maximize what i'm doing my portfolio and
257
00:13:34,509 --> 00:13:34,530
[sterling_white]: m
258
00:13:34,629 --> 00:13:40,363
[casey_]: and you know kind of getting it
into i guess layman's terms for for lack
259
00:13:40,463 --> 00:13:43,508
[casey_]: of really a better term i guess
and so we want to make sure that
260
00:13:44,169 --> 00:13:47,955
[casey_]: we pull people out of that comfort
zone and so again that's why i think
261
00:13:48,095 --> 00:13:54,520
[casey_]: that people like like you who have
been and seen almost the worst of humanity
262
00:13:54,580 --> 00:14:01,708
[casey_]: in a way all the way to
now being a successful entrepreneur and saying going
263
00:14:01,788 --> 00:14:05,514
[casey_]: back and it's really hard to do
because it's not profitable it's a very long
264
00:14:05,595 --> 00:14:11,685
[casey_]: time before that type of a process
is profitable by you going back to the
265
00:14:11,745 --> 00:14:15,333
[casey_]: fifteen year olds that are that are
there and saying hey guys you can raise
266
00:14:15,373 --> 00:14:17,859
[casey_]: capital too and you can invest and
you can do this you can o that
267
00:14:17,879 --> 00:14:21,286
[casey_]: because they're going to be fifteen years
before there even
268
00:14:21,133 --> 00:14:21,213
[sterling_white]: and
269
00:14:21,347 --> 00:14:22,858
[casey_]: remotely close to the ability to do
270
00:14:22,911 --> 00:14:23,011
[sterling_white]: and
271
00:14:22,919 --> 00:14:23,060
[casey_]: that
272
00:14:23,111 --> 00:14:23,913
[sterling_white]: here's the other
273
00:14:23,816 --> 00:14:24,039
[casey_]: okay
274
00:14:24,113 --> 00:14:28,500
[sterling_white]: tough part and i'll play devil's advocate
with this is many you're just not ready
275
00:14:28,621 --> 00:14:30,183
[sterling_white]: or want to hear that message so
276
00:14:30,635 --> 00:14:31,019
[casey_]: that's right
277
00:14:30,844 --> 00:14:35,615
[sterling_white]: that's the you have to consider the
r i with that so it's tough for
278
00:14:35,655 --> 00:14:39,068
[sterling_white]: everyone on here that's one of the
things i'm figuring out but yeah
279

going to make
280

00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:43,940
[sterling_white]: m
283
00:14:43,976 --> 00:14:47,092
[casey_]: i don't know why this battery decided
all of a sudden it wanted to
284
00:14:48,542 --> 00:14:50,088
[sterling_white]: yeah so that's all i had on
that one
285
00:14:50,885 --> 00:15:00,167
[casey_]: that's cool um so you know the
the i hit stop real quick sterling ill
