| 0:00.0 | Hey, welcome to the Cardone Zone. We're going to 10X everything you think, the way you work, the way you act, and the way you roll every single day. Make sure you subscribe and comment. Love to see what you're talking about and get ready for today's show. |
| 0:15.1 | I met you back in January. I think my brother brought me over to your house and I didn't really know about the Bitcoin thing. I'd been studying. I got some 13 years ago and I dabbled a little bit and I asked you about mixing this with real estate and you've given me some great advice. You've been a little short with me every once in a while because I think you, you know, you get tired of dumb questions, right? Does that happen? Do you get frustrated with people |
| 0:38.6 | that are new to the space and they're, they're asking you questions? You're like, don't you get this? |
| 0:44.2 | You get, you know, it depends upon the time of the day. If you've been talking for 12 hours, |
| 0:48.4 | then you can get a little bit tired by the 13th hour. So you catch me in the morning. |
| 1:12.6 | Yeah, the morning's the better time? Because the last time I was with you, you know, the last two times I was with you, one you called the fund that I was doing a pussy fund. I just suggested you should put more Bitcoin in it. And I do it. And we went from 85 to 15 to now we're like one third debt, one third real estate, one third i think that's aggressive i think i think the point that i'm making is is you search the entire world for a good |
| 1:21.3 | idea and there aren't that many good ideas right right i mean Apple was a good idea 20 years ago or Amazon was a good |
| 1:29.4 | idea, you know, and Bitcoin is a good idea. And a good idea is something that could tend to 100x, |
| 1:34.9 | it's money. So if you think about all of the things you discovered in the last 30 years that could |
| 1:41.0 | increase by a factor of 10x or 100x, 10x and by the way bitcoin is 10x in the |
| 1:48.0 | five years since I got in the business but you know think about all that and and then ask yourself |
| 1:54.9 | the question should you put 2% of your money into a good idea? Are you going to have 49 other equally good ideas? |
| 2:04.6 | Okay, you can put 10% of your money. |
| 2:06.6 | If you put 10% of your money into an idea that, you know, 10x is you double your money. |
| 2:12.6 | But of course, you know, is everything else? |
| 2:15.3 | Does that mean that you're going to put 90% of your money into a not |
| 2:18.2 | good idea so my issue there is if i think about my history as an investor uh my number one regret |
| 2:26.4 | is is if you found a good idea you know you wish you would bought more right that's right always |
| 2:32.7 | and you wish you had bought more. Right, that's right, always. And you wish you'd never sold. |
| 2:37.8 | So if I can spare you back 20 years and give you the chance to buy Apple or Amazon or Bitcoin, |
| 2:46.4 | I didn't buy any of those. |
| 2:47.2 | Are you going to give advice to someone they should put two or three or five percent of their portfolio in? It's like, I think if you're going to do it, you should put in an amount of |
