6:53BMm-hmm.

6:54ABut see, here’s the only thing that I know. All my dad had to do was buy the ground. All right, he owned a rock quarry, he owned a lumber company, he had earth-moving equipment, and he had excavators. And he fucking built that shit with guys he knew, and he drew the blueprints up and fucking made it. And so yeah, it only cost my dad about $75,000, $80,000.

7:26BMm-hmm.

9:15BWhat do you think about wealth inequality?

9:17AUm, I think if you can get your hands on some wealth, do it. I think if you ain’t got equality, struggle for it. And I think that everybody I’ll always reconsider the other guy before I fucking does something stupid, you know? I mean, you know, it, you know, but sometimes it’s better, you know, to think about something before you do something stupid. I know it’s helped me a few times, you know.
