Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Sheep Get Sheared Podcast. I'm your host, Austin Creed. I want to welcome you into the show. My friends, we live in a very unstable world. OK, we with the election around around the corner we're dealing with in potentially the orange man going up against the senile old man in the White House. And you know what? I understand if you're discouraged, I understand if you checked out. I understand these things. But you know what? I believe. There is a tremendous opportunity in front of all of us. Why do I say that? Well, because even in the Great Depression, which arguably we're in the second Great Depression right now, but. In the Great Depression in the past. There were people who still made fortunes upon fortunes. OK. Yes, it's true. The majority of people were broke. The majority of people were down bad. Majority of people had it extremely rough. However, there were people who made a lot of money during this period in history and today is no different. Today is no different, but when you have, when we pull up the first story, I want to share with you today to really drive home my point. We have people like Mickey Haley talking about raising the retirement age to 70. Oh yes, this is not. This isn't speculation, this is a real thing. Now I get it. This sounds crazy, right? Sounds crazy, I understand. You might be saying to yourself. 

Ohh hell no. 

I get it. I totally get it. You know. No, this can't be. But you know what? We're in dire straits. And I don't care how crazy you think the politicians are. It's just an unavoidable fact of reality. I hate to tell you, but you know what? I don't just come with bad news. I come with good tidings. In fact, you know, here. Here's what we're going. To talk about today. You need to get a sense of. Urgency. Why do I say that? Oh, me. Just look at this. Retirement age is 70. So if you thought you were just going to kick it, you know, give that Normie, you know, job and then retire at 65 and then live it up. I'm sorry, those days are going away. So you're not to find a new way. You're going to have to find a new way around this, and the answer is not relationships. The answer is not just scrolling on social media. The answer is not at the bottom of a bottle. The answer is not to just check out. There's a fine line of going your own way, finding a new path and just checking out and falling by the wayside. I don't want you to fall by the wayside. I want you to get a sense of urgency. And because it's time for you to develop who you are and to think about who you can't be, not what everybody else is doing, who cares what everybody else is doing? OK. Yes, it's important to know where the ball is bouncing, but that does not mean you have to dribble it, OK? So let's look at these people who I mentioned before, who made these large sums of money during the Great Depression. When the great according to history.com, when the Great Depression hit in 1930s and the 1933 in particular, the unemployment rate exceeded 20% and the American GDP plummeted by 30%. That's bad. Really, really bad. For those of you who don't know, economics, not everyone, however lost money. Here's something you don't understand that maybe I can help illuminate for you. For everybody who loses money, the money has to go somewhere. OK, money doesn't disappear. Energy does not disappear. Matter is neither created nor destroyed. It is merely transmuted. Now, I understand we have Fiat currency. I understand that, however. The value that the companies money does not just simply vanish in thin air. It is redirected and we're going to look at people who. Turned this loss of money during economic downturn in American history and turned it to an upturn for them. Business tycoons such as William Boeing. Sound familiar. Lockheed and Boeing, big government contractors for the Defense Department. Ohh yeah. Yeah, that's the guy. Walter Chrysler. Oh, yeah, you know. Like the Chrysler Building, Umm, see actually grew their fortunes during the Great Depression. Such as the aviation industry took flight in the 1930s, while Lockheed and Boeing did really well. By the way. Little side note, why do you think the politicians increase are not worth so much? And why do you think that the why do you think all of the money that is going to Israel going to Ukraine and whatnot? Who do you think is getting the money for all that? Who do you think invests in those Defense Department companies? Peculiar, isn't it? All tied together, by the way, the governments in on it, in my estimation. Boeing built a vertically integrated empire that manufactured aircraft and operated airlines until the federal government government forced its breakup, busted the trust. Teddy Roosevelt was the one who popularized his idea of busting the trusts. We don't see that very much today. We did see them flying on the Google jet, in my estimation. Carmaker Chrysler responded that goes back to up here. Walter Chrysler Chrysler responded to the fiscal freefall by cutting costs, boosting efficiency and improving passengers comfort. In his company's vehicle, while sales of expensive cars plummeted, those of Chrysler, cheaper Plymouth brands went OPS, in other words. Luxury vehicles were down. The common vehicle was up. So what did he do? He produced lower costing cars and boosted his sales right up, according to the automotive industry news, Chrysler's market share rose from 9% in 1929 to 24%. Look at this. Impressive, right? In 1933, he raised his look at that. Did you? Do you see this? He raised it by 15%. In less than five years. As it surpassed Ford as America's second largest car company. He capitalized on the downturn. You know who's I'll pause for a second before we keep going on this theme. You wanna know who's capitalizing right now on the downturn? Content creators? Not me. I'm not monetized at the moment, but I'll tell you who is making a lot of money. Big content creators because guess what? People are bored. They want a distraction. Bread and circuses. They want to be distracted. They want to temporarily escape from their unavoidable realities. Where do they go? TikTok, Instagram. Facebook. YouTube. Because they want to feel good, they want to be entertained. They want to be away from all this distracting. They're distracted from all the horrible realities of the world. So then they're tuning into those shows, which in turn are getting more views, more Adsense revenue. And so they're going up. They're turning the negativity into profit for themselves. Let's keep going back to the Great Depression. Joseph Kennedy senior oh boy, the Kennedys. I need a I need a new world order sound bite. Joseph Kennedy senior made millions in unregulated stock market. Of the 1920s, in other words, he was one of the guys who cashed in the. Roaring 20s in part due to insider trading, I see some things haven't changed and market manipulation again. Things have not changed. How do you think the politicians make so much money when you can look up their salary on the Internet because it's public knowledge? I'll give you a hint. It's on the screen highlighted right now. Anyways, in my estimation, the Kennedy family patriarch then used his Wall Street earnings to become a movie mogul. What did I just say? I have not read this in advance. What did I just say? If you go into the movie industry people, they are going into the social media industry. Why? The same reason to distract people away from their unfortunate realities. After purchasing a failed Hollywood studio in 1926, he consolidated movie companies that earned out low budget movies and made them more efficient and sold them for big profit. Again, nothing new here. Same exact thing. People are building up media companies and then selling them because guess what? Media companies are going up. People want distractions. By the time he exited to Hollywood in 1931, Kennedy had earned $5 million. This is back then. Almost 100 years ago. In the film industry, according to the National Park Service, I don't know why they'd have that, but think about it. 1929 is when the stock market crashed. And he made out like a bandit. Again, everything that goes down, someone else goes up. This is not an accident. Think about it. This is why we are seeing this downturn happening right now. We're seeing this downturn in the economy because let's look at it. Let's look at this again. While most investors watched their fortunes evaporate most again. There will be some people Who Will Win. Most people will lose, while most investors watch their fortunes evaporate. During the 1929 stock market crash. Again, we could. We could even change this language. This is 29 and this is 2024. So let's do a little bit of math here. This was almost this was about 100 years ago. 2008 the housing market crash the none of this is new, my friends. I wish I could tell you what it is, but it's just not. None of this. None of this is new machine. None of this is new. I had to turn my volume down a little bit. It's kind of loud in my. I don't want to. I don't want people going deaf out here. Let's keep going. Ohh boy. How big oil. Ohh yeah. Ohh yes. Big oil in real estate. Ohh hell yeah. Now we really cooking with some fish grease. Ohh yes. Big oil is OK. Oil tycoon Paul Getty. Those of you don't know who this guy is. Do some history reading. Abided by a simple formula by when everybody else is selling bingo? Bingo. Ohh, but you sold Bitcoin, didn't you? 

Lied to me. 

You sold, didn't you see? This is what he's this could have saved people so much money when the stock market. Went down, everybody went to the bank to grab their money that everybody panicked. When people are selling OK, this is not official financial advice. This is just the one man's opinion. When something goes down, you want to buy cause that means the whales are selling. And then when it goes down and down and other people are like, oh, I gotta, so I gotta sell. I gotta sell. They gonna buy. Yeah. That's how it works. Let's go back to what? Let's go back to what he said, old tycoon. Bye. When everyone else is selling and hold on until everybody else is buying. Oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. Genius, this still works today. Stock market crypto real estate. This works every single time. Ohh yeah. This is what the politicians do in my estimation with the defense contracts and everything. Just look at what Martha Stewart got caught doing. By the way, there was an entire website last time I checked to Nancy Pelosi's trading because everybody wanted to copy her, that she had inside her information. 

Not just any whiteboard. Katie Porter's whiteboard is 1. 

Way. She's no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Nobody gets Free Press on my show. Get outta here with this. Hell not get this advert off my show. 

Fencing, grilling top executive. 

You've got buy what everybody else is selling. Brilliant. Oh, yeah. Uh, having made his first $1,000,000 in the oil industry back then, OK, back then $1,000,000 is not today's $1,000,000. Just so we're clear. You know what? Hold on. We're gonna do it live. Give me one second. Go ahead and do a live. I want to. I'm going to look this up for y'all. Let's see how much was. $1 million. Words in 1930. Ohh would you look at that? Survey says according to. Cora 1,000,000 in 1930 has the purchasing power of around 14,000,000 point, $3 in today's currency. So in other words. Look at how much inflation we've had in the last 100 years. 1,000,000 is now worth about 14, the $15 million. $1 million today would have been the equivalent of 90 KK during the Great Depression. 90K is worth 1,000,000 bucks today. Attention pot heads. Attention. Know nothing. Morons who don't understand what you're living through with inflation and voting in Joe Biden. This is what you did to the country. Now it's not just Joe. Biden's fault. This has been going on for decades. But this is what they did to you. This is what they did to you during the bug 2020-2021, 2022. This is what they. Did to. You inflated the currency, drove everything up, and now it's all coming down. That which goes up must come down. Let's go back to the article. I mean made his first $1,000,000 in the oil industry more than a decade earlier. Yet he skipped. Skipped a celebration of his parents Golden wedding anniversary during the 1929 stock market crash to commensurate with Wall Street brokers and investors and speculators. So in other words, he got the inside scoop. When companies desperate for cash, yet he took what he had learned and acquired undervalued oil he bought when it was low and real estate he bought when it was low. Anybody else noticed recently Bitcoin went down to like 30 K Now it's back up to like 43 K. Umm, you sold, didn't you? You didn't buy, didn't you? You said oh, it's unstable. Ohh. I'm not gonna buy. Should have bought then. Here's what he said quote. It is the opportunity of a lifetime to get oil companies for practically nothing. Ohh man. Aiming to build an empire to rival that of Rockefeller. The first I think he was he was the first billionaire was Rockefeller. Father of Big Pharma, in my estimation, through his shell company and what not. Oh, you didn't know about that either. I did a whole show on it. Getty purchased Pacific Western oil. And shares of tidewater associated oil, the the country's ninth largest oil company, five years after buying tide shares for $2.12. They were worth $20. You 2 hunt. Ohh my dude. Can you imagine buying a, let's say, for? Let me put you let me put this in modern day. OK, let's say there's a crypto coin. That's 2 bucks. You buy 100 shares for 200 bucks. 2 coins. You know all these coins? 100 coins. Now the coins worth 20 bucks. How much money did you make? You know. 100 exit will be 4 bucks. It's five times that. This dude made so much money like. Like 500% of his initial investment, 500%. There was probably more because it said worth more. He might have even done 600 times his initial investment. Really think everybody out here losing all the time? Nope. 

Oh, hell no. 

No, they ain't. See this is This is why I want to tell you this is the perfect time for you to make your money. Make your mark is now. This is why I'm telling you this. Because now when prices are down, everybody's fearful, everybody's playing it safe. If you don't play it safe. And again, this is not financial advice. This is one man's opinion. You have the ability to make out like a bandit, but you're not doing it because you're playing it safe. Ohh no Charles Clinton sprawling. All the insurance racket. Ohh yes. During the Great Depression, Charles Clinton sprawling presided over America's largest black-owned business. The North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company, founded in 1898, the companies struggled to survive before hiring. Sprawling. What did he do? He utilized his sales and marketing attention. You want to make money in today's economy? Sales, sales, sales. Learn how to sell. Whether it's sell yourself, your brand, your content, somebody else doesn't matter, learn sales if you want advice from me, that's not official financial professional advice, just personal advice. Again, one man's opinion sales is the way to go. The company expanded and do fire insurance, banking and mortgage lines. I seen the room or I seem to recall the banks needed the insurance, so he was ahead of the curve. The company which operated out of renting desk space in the corner of doctor's office when Spalding started, grew into a six story office building that anchored Wall Street. And Durham, NC, as African Americans suffered the highest unemployment rates during the Great Depression, sprawling was seen as the country's leading black businessman. He oversaw his company's expansion into Pennsylvania while advising FDR president. On the composition of his black cabinet. Wow. See. You know, OK. I'm going to give a disclaimer. Obviously I am not black, but here's what I want to tell you. Your race does not matter when it comes to your ability to change your life. Now I get it. People are going to say ohh Austin you don't know. You understand the oppression, you know. Understand. Please. I'm not telling you you're not suffering. I'm not telling you. You don't have it hard. That's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is if you want to be a victim. You will find a way to be a victim if you wanna be a victor, you will find a way to win. That is what I'm saying. Yeah, do some people have more of an advantage than others? 100%. Does that mean then that you get to sit there and whine and cry and say how much you're a victim? No. What? Like what good does that do you? Unless you're getting paid to be a professional victim, why would you be out here saying how much you're oppressing? You're a victim. What good is that? Do. You. Is that what your breakfast in the morning? Is that pay your rent that pay your car note to pay your insurance to pay for your gas? I don't think so. So again. You need to get your priorities straight. Look, so securities out of the Social Security is getting bumped up going bankrupt. So if your solution is oh, I want to go out here, I'm going to get married because dual income is going to help me. OK, well, let's look and see what your future wives are up to. Let's see. What does your future wife have to say? Let's see what they have to. Say out here.

I don't even care if she's trolling. She probably. Maybe she's trolling. I don't know. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if she's trolling, because at the end of the day, this is what women actually want, by the way. Oh, look, in real life, they'll tell you they don't care about this. But that's to protect your ego. They don't. Actually, they want what she's talking about. They don't. They actually want this so they can get it all they want it. Why do you think Sugar Daddy culture is so big? Ohh yeah. Why do you think it's so big out here and rising? Answer. Because they want the security. They want to not worry about things.

24 more inches on. 

Me valid. How much? 

Ohh my ohh my goodness brothers. What is this? So this woman on the far left, she said that money didn't matter. Then in turn proceeded to say that you need to make at least 80 K let's go back to this for a second. Hold on. Let's go back to this. The guys making 80K that she's looking for are 45 to 54. Ohh she. But she wants the 25 year old guy with the with the Bugatti. She wants a guy like kind of like Andrew Tate who's younger who's got all this money. That's what she wants. She doesn't want a guy that's about the same age as her father unless he's a sugar daddy. She might want him, but she's not going to say that she wants him because then that would make her look bad. So she's not going to say that she'd never admit that. But again. This is why sugar Daddy culture is taking off and This is why, if you want to participate in dating and you're wondering why you're not getting laid or whatever because you owe money is wack. You need to get your wallet pregnant. Not these women pregnant. That's what you need. That's what you need to do, but you ain't doing it, so we'll go to the 4554 guys who are making that education talked about. That's what's gonna happen. I don't know what else to tell you. So my friends again. We're going well. Let's go return to this. Let's return to this story right here, where there are guys. Who have made. Fortunes during the Great Depression, which was about 100 years ago. The roughest times. There were men out here. Who made a lot of money? During this time. Appealing to the needs of the people. Movies, entertainment, oil, real estate. Alcohol in in movies, you're noticing A trend here. Oil, aviation and movies again. You know, it's a trend here. Planes, movies, food. Insurance. Movies. Oil real estate. Movies and alcohol. My friends, this is not an accident. Let's look at today's culture, alright. And I'm not going to give away too much free game, but what I will tell you, my friends, is this. Let's look at the current culture today in 2024. End of January. Let's look at this for a second. What do you see that people are out here needing? Movies was a big one back 100 years ago. What's the modern day equivalent of movies, social media? Let's go to food. What are people looking for? More sustainable, easy access to food? Why do you think that people are going away with meat and bringing in? It's beyond meat. It's cheaper. More accessible? Why do you think fast Food's doing pretty well right now? Because people are broke. Why do you think that oil is still doing pretty well? Oil is making a big comeback from what I've seen. Because the oil prices were really high, now they're slowly going down just in time for the election year. Just in time for the incumbent to say that they're finally doing something. My friends, I want you to win out here. I'm not saying this to degrade you. I'm saying this because I want you to win. The problem is, a lot of people just want to be victims. They want to play the they want to wave the white flag without ever really trying, in my opinion. So think about it. What are ways you can maximize in this time of uncertainty? How can you use this time to make your fortune? Make your mark? How can you do it? There's options out here. But you need to find a way to do it. So I guarantee you you can. My friends.
