| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, my name is John Shin. I grew up in South Korea, immigrated to the United States, |
| 0:06.0 | and I'll tell you what, once I got here, I started accumulating debt, I had a bunch of student loans, |
| 0:11.0 | I had a half a million dollars in debt. I was at the lowest point, but I'll tell you what, |
| 0:17.0 | I embraced certain principles into my life, and by embracing those principles, I actually became |
| 0:21.8 | an author of a book, I became a movie producer, and most importantly, I grew up this amazing |
| 0:27.2 | sales organization and had a nine figure, nine figures in sales over my journey. |
| 0:34.0 | I am one of the passionate few. |
| 0:36.4 | I just finished an awesome podcast segment here with the one and only |
| 0:40.7 | Omar. I'll tell you what, he asked me some questions that no one has ever asked me before. |
| 0:45.8 | It was absolutely one of the best interviews I've ever had and I've done a lot of interviews, |
| 0:50.4 | but the reason why this interview was so good is not only good for what you guys |
| 0:54.8 | are about to watch, but it was great for me as well. Listen, I was a half a million dollars in |
| 0:59.3 | debt. And out of that debt, you know what? I didn't stay there. I changed some principles. |
| 1:04.9 | The next thing I know, I made a movie called Thinking Grow Rich to Legacy. I became an author called How Rich Asians Think. I'm |
| 1:13.4 | now going on a world tour with Thinking Grow Rich, the World Tour, going to 50 cities into |
| 1:17.8 | 12 different countries. Let me tell you something. What you're about to get out of this epic |
| 1:23.1 | podcast over the next few minutes or hours, whatever it is, I want you to realize that you're not going to like it, you're going to love it. And you're going to love it because it's going to change your life. And I want you to change your life. And I want you to realize that what you take from this podcast will be something that could leave a legacy for the rest of your life. I hope you enjoy this podcast. Thanks so much for being on the show |
| 1:45.2 | today, John. Hey man, excited to be here. Yes, sir. Thank you for inviting us your beautiful home here. Yeah, well, thanks. Yes. I want to get into it. Now, a lot of people have seen what you're doing now with the Thinking Grow Rich movement. I know you guys have had the licenses now to create the docufilm about it and educating people around the world. You're on a global world tour. |
| 1:44.2 | But talk to me about John Shin, the man behind it, right? Because before you became a successful entrepreneur, you grew up, not headed for a multi-million dollar situation, right? Right. It was through a series of events, meeting your wife getting involved through the right instrument in business that you built your wealth. But take us back to the very beginning. You know, where did John grow up and what was his childhood like as a kid? Wow. Well, first of all, I was not born here in the U.S. My parents immigrated to this country from Korea and specifically South Korea, right? Because, you know, now people, you know, you used to say Korea, |
| 2:37.2 | and they would say, oh, is that part of China or whatever, |
| 2:38.9 | but now I've got to be specific, right? |
