David Just Spent a Million Dollars on This
Period. So I thought it would be a good thing to invest in Tesla in stocks. And stocks, for those of you guys who don't know, are something that I can't really explain to you guys because I don't really understand it myself. But so today, this morning, after thinking about it for a while, I invested in stocks and I invested in Tesla. And this is the reason I did it is because I'm I'm just going to say how much I put because it doesn't make— this is the tough part of saying how much I put without sounding like a douchebag or sounding like an idiot. I probably sound like an idiot. That's fine. I put $1 million into the Tesla stock today, which is a lot. And it's not a little for me at all. It's a lot for me. And the reason I even— now I have a lot of explaining to do, especially for my parents who are now finding out about this. You did what? You did what? Um, because, okay, so here's, here's the situation I find myself in, um, constantly. I, I think I have a super insane job that's just completely amazing and it allows me to do the coolest thing and get paid very, very handsomely. And one of my biggest fears other than getting sick is losing the job and losing this income. So I feel like it's a constant fight with me. Figuring out what do I do when this all ends? 'Cause everything comes to an end. You know, like I can't vlog for the rest of my life. I may not even have, I probably won't have the influence I have now for the rest of my life. So I'm always like finding ways to diversify my income. And I took a very aggressive way of doing that by going into stocks. But this morning, I've been following the Tesla stock for a couple months now. About 7, 8 months, which makes me a professional, and it makes me 100% know what I'm doing. And I went to— before I made this investment, I went to my banker. I have a banker who's really nice, and he helps me out with a whole bunch of things. I told him my plan that I wanted to put a million on Tesla, and his first response was, who do you have inside Tesla? What do you know that I don't? Because he thought he was— he thought I was crazy. And, and maybe, maybe I was, but I don't know. I'm very stingy when it comes to money.
