Excuse me, miss.

This is the queen of Anastasia Beverly Hills.

I'd love to know, are you a business owner?

Yeah.

Excuse me, ma 'am.

Ma 'am, is this your car?

What's the highest amount of money you've made in a single year?

I'm 1 .5 million.

You're a millionaire.

I'm trying to be a billionaire.

In the seven figures.

Uh, over 10.

10 million?

Yes.

How can someone in 2026 become a millionaire themselves?

Consistency is key.

Don't let fear stop you.

Fear is the killer for success.

You have to train people, hiring the right people so that I can trust them to do the work when I'm not theirs.

Work hard, save your money, invest the money that you make.

I'd just love to know, like, what kind of message do you want to give to the younger generation, especially women?

This is Beverly Hills, California, one of the richest cities in the world.

Luxury cars, designer brands, and multi -million dollar homes.

But behind all this wealth, there are women who have built their success from skincare companies to consulting firms to fashion brands

and real estate empires and by the end of the day we ran into a billionaire

so today i'm walking around beverly hills to talk to women entrepreneurs

and learn how they made their first million and the lessons they've learned

I should probably mention that this video took about three days to film which means

that you're getting the absolute best interviews we found down to

the minute excuse me excuse me are you guys business owners

by chance yes what type of business do you own skincare

and a sales

and marketing company I live in Maryland what are you doing

here I'm actually part of the school of hard knocks team

we are starting a hard night don't we all get them especially when you're an entrepreneur.

I bought a brand called Ambi Skincare from L 'Oreal about seven years ago

and then I started a skincare line called I Know Skincare.

What's the highest amount of money you've made in a single year?

Over 10.

10 million?

Yes.

We can say that you're a millionaire.

I am.

How are you able to become a millionaire?

Blood, sweat, and tears and not counting the money while you're in the mode of building.

What the old people say, a watch pot does not boil.

The water does not bull when you watch it

so just keep doing what you're doing

and it comes do you think marketing for your skincare brand

is actually super important oh you gotta market how else would people know

that you're out there but it's very expensive to do it it costs

so much money social media marketing

but it's worth it what type of success have you seen though through social media marketing

that you can give to other viewers to maybe have a

skincare brand right now you have to find your community

and that's what's important finding those people and having that emotional tie with your customer.

What is it they're looking for?

Less wrinkles, less dry skin.

So you connect on those different levels based on consumer's needs.

One more thing.

If there's one message you can give to a young entrepreneur right now, a young woman who is looking to become a millionaire in 2026, what advice would you give them?

Don't let fear stop you.

Fear is the killer for success.

Do it in spite of being fearful.

Do it afraid.

Thank you so much.

You're awesome.

My name is Samantha, by the way.

Hey Samantha, I'm Jermaine.

That was absolutely amazing.

We finally met our first millionaire today and she had so much to say.

What she did, she actually invested in buying out another company and through that company's success, she actually started a whole new company.

Let's go find someone else that has that same determination and motivation.

Excuse me, ma 'am, are you a business owner?

I am a business owner.

Oh, what line of business are you in?

I'm in consulting.

What about you?

I'm actually a channel host for the School of Hard Knocks Women's Channel.

Basically, I'm going around talking to successful women and giving advice to the younger generation of women.

Okay.

How much have you made in a single year?

The highest amount.

In the seven figures.

Seven figures.

Yeah.

Millionaire.

Yeah.

Well, God has been good.

Yeah.

Yes.

That's amazing.

I love that answer.

How are you able to get to that like state, like be able to become a millionaire?

What you're asking is how was I able to scale?

And it came from being very clear about what my product is, understanding how to communicate that value to my customers,

not being afraid to talk about the business and the value

that it brings and also hiring the right people and training them

so that I can trust them to do the work when I'm not there.

100

So the idea is if you're in the kitchen cooking all the time, then it takes you away from having the ability to go out and fish and get more.

101

So you have to train people so

102

that you can trust them to do the work so you don't have to stand over them while they're in the kitchen.

103

You can train them to be your sous chef

104

and you can move on to bigger things i love that

105

so much so obviously you've definitely taken risk at some point right i have yeah

106

so i'm still taking risks i love

107

that what type of risk are you taking within your career

108

every day is a risk it's a risk to wake up in the morning

109

and to go out and to try to convince people

110

that your business is valuable to them it's a risk to hire people

111

because as you hire people It requires more cash flow, so you have to make sure that you're able to.

112

manage the day -to -day of the business

113

and also keep the working capital that you need to be able to go out.

114

I'd also say that it's a risk whenever you take on a new client.

115

Sometimes you can promise a lot of wonderful things to people and not necessarily know that you can actually deliver on it.

116

So there are so many risks that you take every day, but it's worth it.

117

Taking care of your clients is so important, especially in consulting.

118

How are you taking care of your clients to make sure that they're okay and successful?

119

It starts with a relationship.

120

In order for me to take care of my clients, I have to understand the uniqueness of their business and what they need.

121

And so taking care of my clients can be checking in with them

122

and making sure that we're giving them a good quality product.

123

It can be making sure that we deliver

124

and not being afraid to ask them to report and to grade our work to make sure we're doing it right.

125

And then to be willing to take the feedback

126

and to make the necessary changes that you need to make to maintain the relationship and leverage those relationships for their clients.

127

Wow.

128

And I want to go back to your faith too, because you said that God is good.

129

Have you always been a follower of Christ?

130

Is that who you're following?

131

Absolutely.

132

I'm unapologetic.

133

In every email, I end it with Godspeed.

134

I don't shy away from who I am because it's deeply rooted in my company.

135

I'm actually not the president or the CEO.

136

I'm the managing partner.

137

God is the CEO.

138

One more thing.

139

If there's someone right now that wants to get into your career in 2026, what tips would you give them in order to become successful and even become a millionaire through their own business?

140

I would say take out a sheet of paper and write down a line in the middle.

141

Write likes and dislikes.

142

All the things that you'd like to do, write them down.

143

Be very clear about what that is.

144

And on the other side, you need to look at your dislikes, those things that you don't enjoy doing.

145

And I think that both of them have value.

146

On the like side, you can figure out if there's something

147

that you'd like to do that doesn't feel like work

148

or something that you're really passionate about or something you're really good at

149

that you can leverage to turn it into a business or a career.

150

But on the dislike side, you have to be also very clear about what you don't like about it if it's something that you can completely eliminate, if it's something that maybe it's not so bad,

151

you can tweak it and maybe make it not so terrible for you or if it's something you need to get over.

152

And so as you start comparing those things

153

and you become very clear about what it is that you enjoy doing and the value that you can bring, you can turn those values into cash and build a legacy that's gonna live beyond you.

154

I love that.

155

Thank you so much for talking with me.

156

You're welcome.

157

Oh, it was so nice to meet you.

158

My name's Samantha, by the way.

159

Samantha, nice to meet you.

160

We almost gave up, but we finally met our next millionaire and she had some good stuff to say.

161

She was talking about client acquisition, how important it is to have a good relationship with your clients.

162

And that's how she was able to become a millionaire.

163

Excuse me, ma 'am?

164

Ma 'am, is this your car?

165

Yeah.

166

How are you able to afford something like this?

167

I'm a fashion designer.

168

I own a clothing line and a shoe company called Jessica Rich.

169

I love that.

170

How'd you get into that?

171

I would love to know.

172

I started basically, I was on a reality show 15 years ago.

173

I used my network to network in LA, build contacts.

174

And then I decided to sell my audience something.

175

And then I just started designing one shoe, and then it went from there.

176

And I just started giving it to a lot of celebrities and influencers.

177

What's the highest amount of money you've made in a single year?

178

A 1 .5 million.

179

You're a millionaire.

180

I'm trying to be a billionaire.

181

I would love to know, how can someone in 2026 become a millionaire themselves?

182

Consistency is key.

183

I mean, I'm nowhere where I want to be, but honestly, if you just wake up, start, and get going, and just ask questions for anyone you want to get advice from, they're usually willing to give you advice.

184

Because the owners that I know that are successful, they've lost it all and rebuilt it all, but it's just continued to keep...

185

I love that so much.

186

I'd love to know, have you taken any huge risk in your life to become a millionaire?

187

Starting a business because you lose friends, you lose family, you lose time.

188

And, you know, sometimes you look back, was it worth it?

189

But when you go to bed at night, you know, you built something from the inside.

190

That's the most important.

191

How old were you when you became a millionaire?

192

35. Tell me one big lesson you learned by becoming a millionaire.

193

I would say money isn't everything.

194

And honestly, I would trade it all for just like spending time with family

195

and friends because sometimes money brings more problems and more stress.

196

So enjoy it all, but never let the business take over your personal life

197

because it can i love it a couple more questions one more

198

if you can go back to your 20 year old self

199

what would you tell her i would have moved to la a lot sooner

200

because la is the number one place you should be to

201

network what's like the top three cities you would go to

202

though to become a millionaire in 2026 i would say new york miami

203

or la because with all three you'll meet people from every genre from tech to fashion thank you

204

205

i love your outfit are you a business owner i am

206

208

209

that family it's a family business it started as a family

210

business what is the highest amount of money you've made in a single year that's a good question

211

but i can't divulge that is it like a million no i can't i won't say

212

so i'm actually part of a channel basically it's about women's success

213

and women who are successful and entrepreneurs and millionaires and billionaires

214

and sharing their secrets

215

and tips to the younger generation yeah that's why i'm asking

216

how did you make your first million just investing wisely in

217

real estate i would love to know what are the top three states you're looking at

218

or someone should look at in 2026 if they want to become a millionaire in property management and invest you?

219

I'm sorry I'm always going to be very partial to California.

220

California even though people are really down on it for different reasons because of legislation but I still believe in California.

221

Is there a reason why?

222

Is there like a specific reason?

223

I mean it's going to be 70 degrees here.

224

Everywhere else it's 30 so I mean you can't argue with the weather and everything that it has to offer here.

225

I mean especially Los Angeles.

226

There are a lot of other areas but it's not as desirable.

227

If someone wanted to get into this right and they started from zero

228

and they wanted to make their first 100k in property management

229

investment what would you tell them get a mentor study a lot read a lot

230

and ask questions

231

and how did you find your investment did you have capital

232

what did you do in order to get your investment i was able to have capital

233

but i feel like i spent it wisely amazing one more thing

234

if there's one message you can give to the younger generation

235

right now what would it be i would say work hard save your money i know

236

that millennials and Gen Z's are really interested in experiences, but it means you're spending a lot of money.

237

You have to invest the money that you make.

238

Don't spend it on going out to eat or vacations.

239

It's hard.

240

Get a good education.

241

You're big on education?

242

Very much so.

243

So you think the younger generation should invest in college or mentorship in order to get into real estate?

244

You have to do that.

245

You know, it's hard to do it just on your own, so.

246

Thank you so much for stopping me, Samantha, by the way.

247

Excuse me, miss?

248

Miss?

249

How were you able to afford a car like this afford

250

251

husband is with earth -winded fire are you a reporter um

252

i'm a part of a channel called the school of hard knocks women

253

and we're talking to successful women on how they're able to

254

give the younger generation a message to become successful themselves do you want

255

if i talk to you for a minute okay just just

256

i gotta no worries no worries do you own any business like what do you do well i'm a singer

257

and yes i own my own group that's so amazing i love that is

258

that always been your passion yes yeah from the time in

259

living in new york six years old i've been on stage

260

tell me one thing how are you able to become a

261

singer like i know that's like a really hard thing to

262

do as be a successful singer especially how are you able to do

263

that you know what it's not a sprint it's a slow journey

264

and a lot of things will come and try to derail you people circumstances

265

and you just have to sort of bear with it stay with it

266

and don't give up

267

and i would love to know what message can you give someone who wants to become a famous singer?

268

Well, it's like I said before, you stick with it, but you just don't learn how to sing.

269

You learn the business.

270

There's a book out by an attorney.

271

I think it's called Everything You Need to Know About Being in Music.

272

So you have to learn about copyrights and publishing and getting a good lawyer, getting a good attorney.

273

Let's say somebody samples your song.

274

If you're a songwriter, then you need to know how to go about getting money for that.

275

Otherwise, they just run away with you with your stuff right

276

so uh learn the full business don't just sing learn the business of show business

277

thank you so much can i just get your name really quick michelle clark michelle it's

278

279

281

but she definitely dropped some amazing knowledge for the younger generation let's go find someone else like michelle excuse me miss

282

I'd love to know, are you a business owner?

283

Yeah.

284

This is the queen of Anastasia Beverly Hills.

285

How did I know that, actually?

286

Because I recognized you.

287

I'm a part of the School of Hard Knocks channel, and I believe James interviewed you.

288

Excuse me, ma 'am.

289

Ma 'am, question for you.

290

How old were you when you became a millionaire?

291

I'm not a millionaire.

292

No?

293

No, I'm a billionaire.

294

You're a billionaire?

295

Yes.

296

Are you actually?

297

Yes.

298

How did you become a billionaire?

299

Well, working hard, shaping eyebrows.

300

It's nice to meet you.

301

I'm Samantha, by the way.

302

Nice to meet you i'm actually the woman's host for their

303

new channel i'd love to interview you for the channel yeah

304

i'd love to we need to go to the salon right

305

now i could walk with you i'd be down to walk

306

with you that's totally fine i just love to know like

307

what kind of message you want to give to the younger

308

generation especially women i think they have to be passionate about what they want to do

309

and working hard is going to get them where they want

310

they have to have a plan they have to to stay focused

311

and determined this is what it takes it takes a lot of work

312

but determination is going to get them where they want to

313

be what type of challenges do you think young women are facing today in entrepreneur world oh there are

314

so many challenges girl but you need to solve

315

that i think business is solving problems

316

and it doesn't matter you could be a woman you could

317

be a man it doesn't matter really i encourage women to

318

not stay focused on oh my god i'm a woman

319

and i don't know if i will get the same credit

320

that a man will take no i was an immigrant and I'm a woman and I never thought of that.

321

I always want to do what I want to do and I was passionate.

322

I mastered my craft and I knew that I'm going to win.

323

Is that something you've always wanted to do, starting a makeup brand?

324

No, I didn't.

325

I didn't.

326

I needed a job.

327

I needed to pay my rent.

328

I came in this country without speaking the language and knowing anyone so I think I'd start developing a passion.

329

But you know what?

330

I started.

331

I started getting a job.

332

I never thought I would be in beauty business.

333

I never thought that I'm going to be passionate about eyebrows.

334

So I think once you start doing something, you will realize that you put passion.

335

And I think everything you want to do, you have to put 100 % into.

336

Become the best in what you want to do.

337

I think that's very, very important.

338

Don't be ashamed to fail.

339

It's okay.

340

Failing, it's okay.

341

Have you failed?

342

And what happened?

343

So many times.

344

I cannot even start to tell you.

345

So many times I failed.

346

But you know what?

347

The key is to learn from every single thing that you've done and you didn't succeed.

348

Learn it and don't do the same mistake again.

349

I love that.

350

Thank you so much.

351

Can you just say your name really quickly?

352

Who are you?

353

Anastasia Suare, and I'm the creator of Anastasia Beverly Hills.

354

Good luck to you and to you and all of you.

355

Well, there you have it.

356

That's three days walking around Beverly Hills, talking to women who have built million -dollar businesses and even running into a billionaire.

357

And I guess the biggest thing I've learned is that there's no single path to success, just people who kept going.

358

Thanks for watching.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
