| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Invest Like a Boss podcast. I'm Sam Marks and I'm Johnny FD. We're self-made entrepreneurs who invest our own money and use modern technology to invest like a boss. Join us each week for exclusive interviews with our network of modern investors, business owners and multi-millionaires to discover new ways to invest our hard-earned cash. |
| 0:18.4 | Hey guys, this is Johnny and welcome to episode 108 of the Invest Like a Boss podcast. I'm actually |
| 0:24.8 | out here in Bali on a last minute trip. Sam just got done a week of going crazy in Vegas and |
| 0:30.7 | now is in San Diego. Welcome to the show. Thanks, Johnny. Thanks, buddy. Yeah, it's looking |
| 0:36.8 | forward to catching up on this episode. Yeah, it's looking forward to catching up on this episode. |
| 0:38.9 | Yeah, it's actually funny. I had no idea where in the world you were until about two minutes ago. And you actually didn't know where I was either. |
| 0:45.8 | No, not at all. But that's going to be funny coming off of the last week's episode where you were so cozy and warm and just live in a very simple non-nomadic life in Shanghai. |
| 0:57.9 | Yeah, you know, I've realized we need these times of recharging, |
| 1:02.3 | but even though we think we're going to need three months to hibernate or, you know, two years to just do nothing, |
| 1:08.4 | in reality, a month of solid sleep, good routine, exercise, |
| 1:12.7 | eating healthy, getting some sun is really enough. And we get kind of bored. |
| 1:16.5 | I'll tell you what. Yeah, absolutely. We get bored, but also moving around is stimulating. |
| 1:22.0 | Variety is a spice of life. And, you know, like, for instance, in this conference that we're |
| 1:26.7 | going to talk about that I was just at in Vegas, man, I'll talk about that recharge in me. I mean, that was, that was amazing. So you got to do these things. Even when you think you're getting comfortable, you know, you got to stay sharp. You got to get out there network. That's what you're doing, Bali. Yeah, and learn. So I'm out here for the drop shipping retreat. I wasn't going to come because I didn't want to travel. |
| 2:01.5 | I really don't like Bali. It's stressful to go out here. It's kind of pain in the butt. But Anton, my buddy and the guy who's putting it together, he emailed me two days ago and was like, hey, I know it's kind of last minute and not to get it back to you, but I booked you a room, you know, if you can make it. |
| 2:00.9 | And at first I had all these excuses why i couldn't you know i was like i wish you would |
| 2:06.4 | have told me earlier i have other plans but but i didn't i thought it wasn't gonna you know coincide |
| 2:10.6 | with my visa runs but it actually worked out perfect and then i thought maybe flights would be expensive |
| 2:15.5 | but they weren't because nobody's coming to Bali right now because all the earthquakes and volcanoes and everything. |
| 2:20.5 | So I was like, all right, well, I don't have any reason not to go. |
| 2:24.0 | So I said, all right, let's do it. |
| 2:25.8 | And already in day one, what you said about kind of recharging, getting a fresh outlook, getting kind of excited again is already happened. |
