1. 0:00Do you remember Alex and Leila Horoszi?
2. 0:02>> Yeah, of course. Yeah, I saw him. The
3. 0:04last time I saw him, actually, I was
4. 0:05swimming.
5. 0:06>> Where were we? Were we in Cabo on a
6. 0:09boat?
7. 0:10>> Yeah, we were on Cabo on a boat. Sabrina
8. 0:12and I were on little skid doos and we
9. 0:14pull up to this boat and Alex and his
10. 0:16wife were on the back of the boat and
11. 0:18they realized it's me in the water. So,
12. 0:20it was a freak.
13. 0:20>> Wow. Just a
14. 0:22>> Cabo or France?
15. 0:23>> Cabo.
16. 0:23>> Yeah, Cabo. That's crazy cuz Ila was
17. 0:25telling me that she got Alex a gift for
18. 0:27Christmas and she was saying he's such a
19. 0:29difficult person to get a gift for
20. 0:30because he could buy anything he wants.
21. 0:32He has everything. So she's like what
22. 0:34does everything exactly?
23. 0:36>> So she said it was 5 hours with you and
24. 0:38I think she said she paid like 50,000 an
25. 0:40hour.
26. 0:40>> I know it was for you to consult. I
27. 0:42think you paid 100 125 or something and
28. 0:44it wasn't 5 hours. It was maybe 40
29. 0:46minutes.
30. 0:48>> 12 minutes for 40 minutes.
31. 0:49>> Is that like your going rate for that?
32. 0:51>> It goes to our foundation. So, it's not
33. 0:53it's not, you know, it's a good cause,
34. 0:56but it's it's not he wanted to tap into
35. 0:59what I was doing and understand, hey,
36. 1:01what are you doing that works? And and
37. 1:03it paid off for him. I mean, I think
38. 1:04that was two years ago, three years ago.
39. 1:06>> Gosh.
40. 1:07>> Yeah.
41. 1:07>> So, what does that work out to be a
42. 1:09minute? That is
43. 1:10>> that's where his mind goes immediately.
44. 1:11What it is all
45. 1:13>> you need is one one minute to change
46. 1:15your life. I mean really you need one
47. 1:17idea one and he's the kind of guy both
48. 1:19of them those guys are they'll take
49. 1:21something and turn it into
50. 1:23>> into something you know to gold and they
51. 1:26did.
52. 1:26>> So what do you notice about the type of
53. 1:28person who's going to pay a hundred and
54. 1:29something thousand for an hour? How do
55. 1:31they come prepared for something like
56. 1:32that? Do they ask questions?
57. 1:34>> Yeah, that's good. Number one, you know,
58. 1:37somebody that pays that much is either a
59. 1:39huge fanboy, right, and and a bit weird
60. 1:42or they're very very serious. in the
61. 1:45case those guys very serious you know
62. 1:47committed to their career looking for
63. 1:48some hacks and did they come with
64. 1:52questions I think they did you know we
65. 1:53send people like a list of questions
66. 1:55that they could consider you know to get
67. 1:57them ready some people actually say that
68. 2:00I don't do a lot of this I do maybe two
69. 2:01of these a month but
70. 2:03>> some people say that the questions and
71. 2:05the the flight over as they're coming
72. 2:08because they're considering now dude how
73. 2:10am I going to use this 60 minutes
74. 2:12>> you know even is beneficial icial to
75. 2:14them because they're starting to really
76. 2:16lock in on what is it they want to
77. 2:18>> because you don't want to spend 100
78. 2:19grand,
79. 2:20>> right? But what kind of question and
80. 2:21answer can be $100,000 worth of value?
81. 2:24That's what I'm wondering cuz can't they
82. 2:26like do it for maybe like 10% the like
83. 2:2910 grand? Like that's trying to
84. 2:30negotiate, you know what I mean? Like
85. 2:32Yeah. Well, I'm not doing it for 10
86. 2:33grand. So true.
87. 2:34>> That's a different that's a different
88. 2:35audience, a different gig, a different
89. 2:37pitch. So like I'm not doing it.
90. 2:39>> So where do you think your expertise is?
91. 2:40>> Like I could come to you guys and say,
92. 2:42"Look guys, I'll give you a hundred
93. 2:43grand I don't I don't care what period
94. 2:45of time I in less than 15 minutes. Tell
95. 2:48me how to get my YouTube channel from
96. 2:50two and a half million followers to 4.5.
97. 2:52>> I do it for a lot less,
98. 2:53>> but a lot.
99. 2:54>> Drag would do it for free.
100. 2:55>> Yeah, I do it for free. Good. Let's do
101. 2:56it for free then, man. That's even
102. 2:58better.
103. 2:58>> But where do you think your expertise
104. 3:00is?
105. 3:00>> But I'll pay more attention if I pay
106. 3:02100.
107. 3:02>> True.
108. 3:02>> That's a That's a good point. That's a
109. 3:04very good point.
110. 3:04>> You know, most people just never pay
111. 3:06attention because they don't pay,
112. 3:07>> right?
113. 3:07>> Where do you think your expertise is? If
114. 3:09someone's paying you that much for
115. 3:10consulting, where is your experience in
116. 3:12that? Is it business? Is it marketing?
117. 3:14Is it sales? Is it real estate?
118. 3:16>> No, I think it's, you know, I I have
119. 3:18I've been blessed to be to learn a lot
120. 3:21about all those. Like, you know, in the
121. 3:22beginning was a sales guy. I mean, in
122. 3:24the very beginning was like how to get
123. 3:25off of drugs the first time you go to a
124. 3:28treatment center. Yeah. Like the failure
125. 3:29rate there was about 78%.
126. 3:31>> I was one of those 22% that never went
127. 3:34back, never used drug, never relapsed.
128. 3:36So that was that that's something I know
129. 3:38how to do and that's all I do is I just
130. 3:40share with people things that I've
131. 3:42learned how to do. Sales, I'm an
132. 3:44excellent salesperson. I could help any
133. 3:46organization in the world, not just
134. 3:49double, triple, or quadruple, but I
135. 3:51believe 10x their sales because there's
136. 3:53so many missed opportunities on
137. 3:54marketing. I mean, I've done a decent
138. 3:56job in marketing. So only thing I ever
139. 3:58share with anybody is like what what I
140. 4:00did that works. It's not like I'm a
141. 4:02genius. I'm like, these things worked,
142. 4:04these things didn't. M
143. 4:06>> you know and they never worked for us
144. 4:07but these things worked and the mistakes
145. 4:09we made in between those two.
146. 4:11>> Uh the real estate I you know I've
147. 4:12bought a lot of real estate. So
148. 4:14>> uh I've never lost money in a real
149. 4:15estate deal but I've made mistakes in
150. 4:17real estate. So
151. 4:19>> you learned from those.
152. 4:20>> Uh I crowdfunded. Yeah. Yeah. Well what
153. 4:22I did was I didn't buy enough real
154. 4:24estate. That was the number one biggest
155. 4:25mistake I made. I should have bought
156. 4:26more real estate in all cycles including
157. 4:28this one that's going on. Uh but like I
158. 4:30crowdfunded we crowdfunded a billion
159. 4:32dollars over the internet. I learned a
160. 4:33lot by crowdfunding. I didn't know how
161. 4:35to do it. I didn't even know what it
162. 4:36was. I didn't know what the term was.
163. 4:37>> What I'm curious, you said that there's
164. 4:3978% failure rate out of those drug rehab
165. 4:42homes. Why did you succeed when most
166. 4:44people don't? Like what was it?
167. 4:46>> I can't pinpoint like whatever other
168. 4:48problem.
169. 4:48>> It's a characteristic trait or something
170. 4:49that you
171. 4:50>> I think what I did was I when I got
172. 4:51home, that's what I'm saying. Other than
173. 4:53God, you know, having something to do
174. 4:55with it. Um when I came home, I got rid
175. 5:00of all my friends. I didn't go back to
176. 5:02the places that I went to. I got rid of
177. 5:04my girlfriend. She was still a drug
178. 5:06addict. Uh I went to three meetings
179. 5:08every every day. Every single day in the
180. 5:10morning, at noon, and at night, I went
181. 5:12to a meeting. I I was either working on
182. 5:14my work or I was working on helping
183. 5:16somebody else. And I did that for five
184. 5:18years. Every single day.
185. 5:19>> How did you get into drugs? Where did
186. 5:22that start? What did someone introduce
187. 5:23you?
188. 5:24>> Yeah, I was 15 or 16 years, almost 16
189. 5:26years old. And my dad had died six years
190. 5:28earlier. So, I was already starting to
191. 5:30have problems because I was drifting and
192. 5:32school was very slow for me. My uncle's
193. 5:34I was hoping somebody would come and
194. 5:36mentor me.
195. 5:37>> Mhm.
196. 5:37>> And um it's probably why I give so much
197. 5:40time away today except Alex,
198. 5:43you know. Uh but I did give him time,
199. 5:45right? So, so um
200. 5:48>> we I had three uncles and I'm like,
201. 5:49"Okay, I know those guys are going to
202. 5:50step in and help me." They were busy.
203. 5:52They got their own lives and nobody
204. 5:54stepped in. And then and I was 16 years
205. 5:56old and a drug dealer stepped in and
206. 5:57said, "Hey, I'll help you. I'll give you
207. 5:58attention. This is what you need to
208. 6:00learn and the next thing you know I'll
209. 6:01go down the drug road. Man, it was
210. 6:03nasty. So for like nine nine and a half
211. 6:05years I just went south
212. 6:08>> and didn't plan on doing that.
213. 6:10>> Yeah.
214. 6:10>> You know,
215. 6:10>> did it start with like one drug and then
216. 6:12lead to like weed started with weed.
217. 6:14>> So weed weed is a gateway drug
218. 6:17>> one. I 100% agreeous.
219. 6:19>> I agree. And people in high school, in
220. 6:21middle school, they used to clown on it
221. 6:22and be like, "No, weed not weed's not a
222. 6:24gateway drug. You're not just going to
223. 6:24go from weed to cocaine." It's like, no,
224. 6:26it 100% is a gateway drug. You say it
225. 6:29isn't, you will be proven dead wrong and
226. 6:31it's going to be sad.
227. 6:32>> Dude, alcohol is a gateway drug. If
228. 6:34you're around people that have drugs,
229. 6:36>> any mindaltering anything is a gateway.
230. 6:39>> Anything that compromises your ability
231. 6:40to make good decisions,
232. 6:42>> you know, the moment you're like, okay,
233. 6:43maybe it's not that big a deal.
234. 6:45>> I mean, it doesn't it didn't matter.
235. 6:46Like people are like, hey, what was your
236. 6:48drug of choice? What what what drug do
237. 6:49you have?
238. 6:50>> That's the drug of choice at this
239. 6:52moment. Like it didn't
240. 6:53>> did it ever concern you at that point
241. 6:54for like health or like this could kill
242. 6:57me or was it just like
243. 6:59>> it wasn't my health. It was like
244. 7:01>> I wasn't thinking about okay this is bad
245. 7:03for my lungs or bad for my brain. I was
246. 7:06like I couldn't quit. Okay. Literally I
247. 7:09started 16 and within a year I am using
248. 7:13some kind of drug every day.
249. 7:16what flip what flips with flips which
250. 7:19also you know you walk into this new

263. 7:43back then because that seems expensive
264. 7:46like every day. That's what 20 20 bucks.
265. 7:48>> Well, what every every drug uh drug uh
266. 7:51drug addict does is they they buy enough
267. 7:53to use themselves and then they their
268. 7:56friends get drugs. You're not using
269. 7:57drugs by yourself. I mean, I wasn't
