The comparative

You are busier now in retirement than you've ever been.

Um, you're just You're an incredibly busy guy.

You're not telling me you don't trust me?

Keep this picture with me at all times because it inspires me.

You gave out turkeys in Hawaii and California with your fam first family foundation.

That is really admirable that you do that, um, and and really amazing.

And you're also now you're trying to get coding classes.

You're trying to get kids who are in need some coding classes Tell us about that.

But we put together this beast mode of business when we brought in maybe 20 kids from the inner city who had no idea about coding eso we gave him opportunity, we know provided them with laptops and the kids gave him the business plans and they turn their business plans and to online businesses, you know, for them to be able to create and generate money, right?

And I would say at least maybe five but of the kids actually still have sustainable businesses that, uh, that they had made when I mean, throughout our foundation, we've been doing coding for I'll say about the last, maybe 3 to 4 years.

I mean, we got architect classes where the kids build models of, you know, because we have a youth center now.

Models of what they want the youth center look like once we get our coins right, And I mean, you know, just to put these type of, like architect I know when I was a youngster out here architect, I'm like, out here don't know what that is code and like cold.

And what a cheat code on a video game like, But they dive into the then they showed me something that, like the passion that they that they have behind him, I think it's more so just, you know, people in position being able to show them that it's actually out there and able for them to do yeah, because every time, yeah, and also that it's possible.

And I think sometimes people think if they come from a background where they don't have access to computers, they don't have access.

But when and then they create a mental block.

And if someone at any early age says here it is and yes, you can do this, there's no mental block.

That seaman what I learned what I learned is like thes kids imaginations like if if you don't, if you don't block him, see, mine was blocked.

They told me it was either gonna be Sports penitentiary or or the casket.

And then I mean, you know, I don't lost so many people starting at the early age of seven, like, uh, you know, I might try to get this sports.

Then you try that you feel me, and that was that was That was where my mind had went.

It was shut out for me because I've never had no inspiration to go beat nothing.

But now I see that you know we get you could go be an engineer like What's the engineer?

Or you could go be the second a d on a on a on a on a movie set like What's the second a d?

I mean, now I go and teach my kids that and it's just like, man, the more you allow them toe show you that what they're labeled as is not the truth, you'll be.

Yeah, when you were when you were a kid, did people try to tell you because you've shown outside of sports that you're this great force?

You're just, you know you're so smart about create these different foundations.

Did you know you were capable of all that when you were a kid, or did people convince you that you weren't able to do that kind of thing.

I'm telling you, I'm who all the way from elementary school, you know, all the way through, Cal.

I've been in special resource programs, and I mean, it wasn't until about high school when I when I finally got it, like, man, that I'm going to go ask for help on once.

I once I put all that other You stupid, You got a d d You got a d h d You got all this book, man, Get the alright.

And once I once I figured out that can you help me, then everything else was just, you know, I mean, small selling to keep it solid with you, right?

And now it's to the point where I just got a honorary degree from from Princeton.

So I mean, you feel me they e a town that could say I got a degree from president after being called stupid.

And you ain't gonna be You're gonna be dead or in jail.

That is I mean, that makes me that makes.

That's the nicest thing I've heard in in in a dark time.

That is one of the greatest things I've heard.
