For clearance: he did not later drop the 100m before the fight, he said 100m was too much. One of my friends staked 20m we asked him to stake his he said he will after the match.
We push for him to drop the 100m he refused 🤷♂️
If you’re on live you can testify. So money was not involved.
Peace and love ❤️🦅

A woman inherited nearly $1.6 million after her boyfriend died. They had been together for eight years, and although he never left a will, the courts recognized their relationship. She even went to his family and offered to divide the inheritance, but they told her he would have wanted her to keep it.
Before he died, he had a tradition of giving his nieces and nephews money for educational experiences. She continued it, giving each child $1,000 a year. With another baby on the way, the total would eventually be around $80,000 over 18 years.
Then she got engaged.
Her new fiancé told her he didn’t think she should continue giving money to her late boyfriend’s family. He felt she was prioritizing them over his own nieces and nephews.
But here’s the interesting part: she was giving roughly $3,000–$4,000 a year from an inheritance of nearly $1.6 million.
The money wasn’t changing her lifestyle. It was paying for things like summer camps and dance classes.
The real disagreement wasn’t about the money.
It was about whether her fiancé could accept that her past would always be part of her story.

My friend called me yesterday complaining about his rent.
He said his landlord was raising it by $150 next month.
He was already paying $1,650.
So next month: $1,800.
That’s $21,600 a year just for rent.
He makes about $4,000 a month after taxes.
$1,800 ÷ $4,000 = 45% of his income gone before utilities, groceries, insurance, or his car.
I asked him how much he had left after everything.
He checked his banking app.
About $300.
Then he said:
“I work full-time. How am I still struggling to afford a place to live?”
I didn’t have a good answer.
Rent doesn’t just take your money.
It takes away the money you could have used to build a life.

My wife and I bought a home in Florida about four months ago, around the same time we discovered the Baby Steps.
I’m active duty in the military, and my wife works from home. We’ve been working hard to pay down our debt.
But ever since we bought the house, my mom and other family members have suddenly wanted to visit more often.
My mom has joked for a while that she’s just going to die with debt and eventually come live with us.
At first, I laughed it off.
Now she’s starting to sound serious.
My wife is much more understanding than I am. She thinks I should be more open to the idea if my mom ever needs somewhere to live.
We have a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter, and I’m worried about what this could mean for our family, finances, and our home.
So I asked:
“Am I being too stubborn by not wanting my mom to move in with us?”
The answer I got was:
“Not at all. I want you to be honest with yourself, and here’s what I mean by that.”

27-Year-Old Dad Faces a Nightmare After Buying His First Home
Manny: “I’m 27. I just recently bought a home. I do have three young kids and a stay-at-home wife, and I’m expecting my fourth child within the next two weeks give or take some time.”
Host: “(chuckles) Alright.”
Manny: “And, um, since I got into the home, I did have a savings account that dwindled down a little bit just from some small repairs, like an HVAC system that needed to be repaired for $3,000, um, and then small things around the house.
Within the last month, my sewage drain, I think, has a crack in it…”
Host: “Oh, no.”
Manny: “…caused my entire home to smell like sewage. And now I have like, uh, drain flies pretty much throughout my home. So…”
Host: “What did your plumber say?”
Manny: “So, one I had two different plumbers come just to get two different opinions and quotes.
One of them said, um, it is a drain pipe that does have a crack. The house that I got was a remodel; everything was pretty much new, including most of the above-ground plumbing, but the sewage stuff was all the original pipework.
And he said he needed to get a camera scope in there, and he did see where it was. And it was under parts of the foundation, under the ground.”
Host: “Are you on a slab?”
Manny: “Yeah. So, where the pipe is cracked, it’s part of a slab. Or, it might be right next to it or underneath it.
Um, but the main thing is that because I’m having like drain flies and all these small issues that come along with this, I do have a…”

Hard Foul Upgraded to Flagrant 2
DiJonai Carrington was called for a hard foul on Sophie Cunningham while trying to stop a layup. The officials determined there was windup, impact, follow-through, and a high potential for injury because Cunningham was airborne.
The foul was upgraded to a Flagrant 2. Cunningham received two free throws, and Indiana retained possession.
Michela Timpson also stepped in quickly to separate the players and prevent the situation from escalating. 🏀🔥

Save Taxes Today or Build Tax-Free Wealth Later? Dave Ramsey Says the Math Is Clear.
A caller named Jenna asked whether she should switch from a Roth 401(k) to a traditional 401(k) after her financial advisor recommended it because of her income level and the immediate tax savings.
Dave Ramsey strongly disagreed.
He asked Jenna how old she was and how much she planned to contribute. Jenna, age 40, said she would be maxing out her 401(k), contributing around $24,000 per year.
Using a retirement calculator, Dave estimated that if she invested that amount consistently until age 65, she could end up with roughly $3.1 million in retirement savings.
Over 25 years, Jenna would personally contribute about $600,000. That means approximately $2.5 million of the account balance would come from investment growth.
Dave’s argument was simple:
With a traditional 401(k), you save taxes today on the $600,000 you contribute, but later you pay taxes on the entire account — including the $2.5 million of growth.
With a Roth 401(k), you pay taxes on your contributions now, but all future growth can be withdrawn tax-free in retirement.
Dave explained that the advisor was focusing on short-term tax savings while ignoring the much larger amount of money that could potentially grow tax-free over decades.
Jenna immediately understood the comparison, saying she could see exactly what Dave meant.
The discussion centered on a key question many investors face:
Would you rather save taxes on the money you put in today, or avoid taxes on decades of growth later?
Dave’s position was clear: for someone with a long time horizon and strong growth potential, paying taxes now through a Roth often makes more sense than paying taxes later on a much larger balance

She Built a $30M Business But One Problem Is Holding Her Back
Lauryn built a $30 million personal finance business for women, but scaling further has become difficult. She says her biggest challenges are rising customer acquisition costs (CAC), low lifetime value (LTV), and a low average order value (AOV).
Right now, she relies mainly on Meta ads to drive people to a free webinar, where she sells a $2,000 program or a 12-month payment plan. Customer acquisition costs are around $1,500, and only 7% of clients upgrade to her $10,000 backend offer. She’s now trying to figure out which bottleneck to solve first so the business can continue growing.

“I’m about $70,000 in debt, and honestly, I have no idea how to get out of it.”
That’s how the caller opened the conversation.
Most of the debt came from credit cards, medical bills, and a car loan. They owed around $4,300 on an American Express card, $6,800 on a Capital One card, and still had about $25,000 left on their car loan.
To make things worse, they had enrolled some of their debt in a consolidation program a year and a half earlier, hoping it would help. Instead, they felt stuck.
“I’m just not seeing anything disappear,” they admitted. “Some of my debt is still on hold, and it feels like I’m not making any progress.”
The medical bills kept adding up too several separate balances ranging from a few hundred dollars to $4,000.
When asked about their income, the caller quietly replied:
“I hardly make anything. I earn about $2,200 a month.”
It was a difficult situation: a large amount of debt, little income, and growing frustration from feeling like nothing was changing.

He Had Two Successful Businesses But One Was Holding Him Back.
A business owner told Alex Hormozi that his marketing agency earns him about $200,000 a year, while his wife’s law firm is on track to generate $3.5 million in revenue.
His dilemma? He couldn’t let go of the smaller business.
Alex Hormozi: “If you spent those same 30–35 hours a week growing the business that’s already making several times more, you’d likely earn far more than you’re making now.”
Instead of hiring an operator, Alex suggested gradually winding down the agency, giving clients six months’ notice, referring them to trusted partners, and focusing 100% on scaling the larger opportunity.
Sometimes the biggest obstacle to growth isn’t a bad business it’s holding on to a good one instead of committing to a great one.

A $1.1M Seattle home, burst pipes on 38 acres, and $2,000 a month down the drain. Dave Ramsey breaks down what to do when real estate goes wrong.
Caller: My wife and I, we just bought a house this past weekend at around $1.1 million outside Seattle. Before we got married, she bought a home in Eastern Washington for about $500K. We still owe about $350K. The issue is, there's a bad leak because of no heat and burst pipes, so now the home is uninhabitable. It's costing us about $1,800 to $2,000 a month.
Dave Ramsey: Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute. Did she not have insurance? Is the home as... far run-down as it was? They were planning on gutting it anyway? Okay, so the value here is the 13 acres, not the lot, not the house?
Caller: 38 acres.
Dave Ramsey: 38 acres? So you can pull the house down and sell the 38 acres?
Caller: Yes. I just don't know if it's worth what we still owe on it, is the problem.
Dave Ramsey: I would find out.
Caller: You don't think it's worth keeping as a...
Dave Ramsey: No!
Caller: ...potentially long-term investment?
Dave Ramsey: It's a mess! No, it's a money pit! Let's just pretend you didn't own this. And you woke up in the morning and you said, "I found a piece we can get for $175,000, 38 acres with nothing down, and pay payments on it." You wouldn't do that.
Caller: You think even if we're underwater on the house right now, we should still try to get rid of it?
Dave Ramsey: I'm sorry, house and acreage, we don't think we're underwater, do we?
Caller: It's hard... I don't think so, but she bought it during the craze where everyone was trying to get out of the city.
Dave Ramsey: Okay, you're not operating on facts, you're operating on feelings. You need to have a real estate agent go out and tell you what this piece of property will bring. This does not sound to me like it's something I want to own. You just got married, you got a wonderful house, you have a wonderful life. Don't let this be a distraction... throw a grenade in the middle of all the good stuff you're doing.
