  • Good morning, John.

  • I don't know if what people know about how I make videos, but I usually write a script and this video doesn't have one of those started to document.

  • It says Good Morning, John.

  • That's the whole thing.

  • That's what I got, basically a lots happening all at the same time.

  • The entire YouTube community is coming together to raise money to plant trees in the world, which is lovely.

  • I just bought a bunch of land to build a warehouse on because D F T B A has grown too much.

  • I don't mind because, as I haven't I don't think even mentioned on this channel D F TV A now gives all of its profit distributions that would normally go to me and John to Jared and also, yes, that's happened.

  • We've already raised more than half of our initial goal of $240,000 a ph dot org's slash Hank and John at the big truck where you do it, Where you going?

  • He's gonna okay, Good.

  • Also, it's just a lot to have finally had this thing that John mostly you.

  • But also I have been working on for a really long time and, like, been thinking about for a really long time.

  • This is something that we've been really careful about, that if we're gonna ask a lot of people for a lot of money and it also put a lot of our money on the line, we want to do it the right way, and we wanna have the best impact that we can.

  • Now, of course, best is a trap that you can get stuck in, right.

  • Like, Is this the best possible use of money?

  • That's how you start thinking about things.

  • You will never do anything because what isn't the best possible use of money.

  • I know this for a fact.

  • Is it sitting in my bank account?

  • That's what usually happens when people have money.

  • You put it, you invested in the stock market.

  • And then the idea is that, like in the future, that money will be worth more money and it will be.

  • But as I was getting lots of advice on what to do with money, because this is like there's a whole industry of people who are advisers for people who have money.

  • When I was realizing was when I said, Like I just want to give the money away Now There was a lot of like, well, wait, like wait for the money to become worth more money and then give it away.

  • Then it will be more of a gift.

  • You give away more money.

  • And that made a kind of sense until I realized a really obvious thing.

  • Poverty and illness and hardship, our taxes that pay for nothing.

  • These things make it harder and less likely for people to find stability and contribute to their communities.

  • Having your mother die is something that decreases your odds of finding stability for your whole life.

  • My money doesn't disappear when it arrives in Sierra Leone that value grows and Children and nurses and parents and communities.

  • It just grows in ways that I can't see or control the way I could if the money was in a bank account.

  • Financial advisors don't love this line of reasoning because it doesn't make them any money.

  • There are no like highly paid charity donation advisors that that's a little bit what John and I are trying to do for some people.

  • Just shoot us.

  • An email at Hank and John at gmail dot com.

  • We can help you make the most of your dollars.

  • Also, to raise money for this, we're gonna be going on more tours.

  • If you want to tell us where we should go.

  • It should be fairly self explanatory.

  • Also, what complexly We're doing a pilot season where 2/3 of the way through right now.
