0:00.0	Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Money Monday's podcast where we cover three core topics,
0:10.3	how to make money, how to invest money, how to give away to charity.
0:13.6	Our guest here has built up a very, very large business.
0:17.1	He's built up a personal brand.
0:18.6	He's helped a lot of humans get healthier, lose weight, build up strength and build up confidence and all the things in between there. So we're going to dive deep into the different categories of what happens not just on the investing money side, but what happens about investing to yourself? Becoming healthier, becoming fitter. What does that do for your household, for your career, and for your life in general? Now, as you guys know, these podcasts are under 40 minutes because the average commute to work is 45 minutes and the average workout is 45 minutes. So this episode will be between 32 and 38 minutes for your listening pleasure. Now, without further ado, our guest, Aaron, if you could give us a quick two-minute bio, so we're straight to the money. Sure. So my name is Aaron Singerman. I'm the CEO and founder of
0:54.8	Redcon 1, which is a sports supplement brand that has transitioned into also canned
1:00.4	energy and beverage space. So we started off thinking bodybuilding and fitness, which is my passion
1:05.9	and has transitioned into a much larger business. For me personally, my journey is an unusual one because I
1:12.8	started my life early as a kind of mixed up kid, a drug addict, intravenous heroin and cocaine
1:19.3	addict who really didn't know where they were going to go in life. I was lucky enough to decide,
1:24.7	find, and pursue my passion of bodybuilding and fitness, get into the world
1:28.3	of bodybuilding and fitness as an interviewer. I imagine like a Bob Costas of bodybuilding and
1:33.5	fitness. And as soon as I got pregnant with my first child, I realized that that's not going to make
1:39.4	enough money to pay the bills and pursue the passion of supplements, sports supplements, which is something that I've been taking and passionate about my entire childhood adult life and was able to create success in that.
1:51.7	And it sounds like an upward trajectory from there, but the truth is there's been some very jagged falls along the way.
1:57.9	I went to prison along the way, following that same passion, and then came back out of prison
2:02.6	and continued the journey with Redcon 1 and have been able to have some explosive growth,
2:08.1	even though I've had quite a bit of pitfalls along the way.
2:10.6	So it wasn't a journey straight to the top.
2:12.6	There was quite a few jagged edges along the way.
2:16.2	Well, I'm very excited to ask you a lot of questions then.
2:18.3	Because I think it's important.
