I'm about to interview one of the greatest movie stars of all time and his name,
2
it's Tom Cruise.
3
What industry did you decide to pursue a career in movies which encompasses almost every industry?
4
I'm here with Tom Cruise.
5
Oh man, it's nice to see you.
6
He's been the face of Hollywood for over 40 years,
7
starring in blockbuster films like Pop Gun and Mission Impossible.
8
He's made billions at the box office
9
while earning hundreds of millions of dollars personally and becoming one of the most iconic actors of all time.
10
So today, I'm in my home state of Texas to meet with the legend himself,
11
Tom Cruise, to figure out his secrets.
12
Ask him how he became one of the greatest actors in history,
13
all while building an empire in the process.
14
So this video is about to be insane from start to finish,
15
so stay tuned until the end.
16
With that being said, let's get this video on the way.
17
All right, you guys, so we're going to be meeting up with Tom Cruise very shortly,
18
but I need you guys to understand something.
19
Look, Tom Cruise is one of the richest men in all of Hollywood.
20
He's one of the richest actors of all time.
21
And I'm going to be interviewing him out in San Antonio.
22
But right now, I'm standing in one of the billionaire capitals of the world.
23
I'm in Austin, Texas.
24
Home to billionaires like Elon Musk, Michael Dell.
25
Guys worth billions of dollars.
26
And I'm going to be cold approaching some of the richest people in all of Austin right now.
27
And one of the billionaire hot spots out here in downtown.
28
So we're going to go see who we can find and how they made their,
29
well, not millions, but billions out here, you guys.
30
Come on.
31
Excuse me, sir.
32
Sir, how old were you when you became a millionaire?
33
About 40 years old.
34
How did you get rich?
35
Have you ever had one of these?
36
Kind bar?
37
Yes.
38
I found it.
39
You created the Kind bar?
40
Yeah.
41
How much money did you make selling these?
42
We sold over a billion dollars a year.
43
Are you a billionaire?
44
I guess so, but I spent 30 years building my business prior to Kind
45
and then only last December I finally sold the company.
46
I go all over the world and doing billionaires to help the younger generation.
47
Can I get a minute with you for our channel real quick?
48
Sure, with pleasure.
49
Who am I here with today?
50
Daniel Lubetzky.
51
How did you come up with the idea for Kind?
52
10 years of mistakes in the natural food industry.
53
I first started a company called PeaceWorks to bring neighbors in conflict regions together.
54
Made so many mistakes, but eventually had an idea for a healthy snack
55
that you could travel with and that exploded and did really well.
56
Did you have anybody that doubted you when you started this company?
57
Everyone doubted me.
58
Like even my parents who I love so much.
59
What is this crazy Mexican Jewish lawyer doing selling sundry tomato spreads in the streets of Manhattan?
60
What was the biggest risk that you took throughout your career?
61
I mean, everything in my life was like that,
62
but I had a degree from Stanford Law School.
63
I could have gone work through a fancy law firm
64
and instead I had my little legal suitcase emptied it from the books added all my products
65
and I was walking up
66
and down the streets of Manhattan at 7 a.m in the morning letting people try my products door by door,
67
door by door from 7 a.m to 7 p.m
68
and then the following day I would go and deliver the product to stores by myself and repeat and rinse,
69
rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat for many, many years.
70
You built a billion dollar brand.
71
What's your best branding advice for anybody out there? Be consistent.
72
Don't try to change things because if you try to please everybody,
73
you're going to please nobody always stay consistent with what your logo is marketers always want to change things
74
which is cool but there's things
75
that shouldn't change your value set a value statement what does my brand stand for
76
and very importantly what it is not and be true to
77
that always be what you say you are never be what you say you're not
78
and be consistent consistent consistent you know even after we were selling billions of dollars
79
and worth billions of dollars sometimes people still didn't know
80
that the brand was called kind they remember the colors
81
but it takes a long time to build an iconic brand You just need to stay consistent.
82
Like our logo, we never changed it.
83
We were very, very consistent so people develop the mental framework and understand it.
84
And what does it mean?
85
A brand is a promise.
86
A great brand is a promise well kept.
87
Your school of hard knocks,
88
you know exactly what you're trying to do.
89
You know what your consumer,
90
what your viewer wants to get out of you.
91
And you're very consistent.
92
That's why you're succeeding because you know exactly what you need to deliver.
93
If one day you're going to go philosophical
94
and the other one you're going to go practical
95
and the other way you're going to talk to old people and the other one,
96
it's going to be much harder for people to know what to look for.
97
So you need to be consistent whether you're creating a social media channel
98
or product just Consistency is everything now Warren Buffett one of the richest men on planet Earth says
99
that Distribution is the key to everything during every store known
100
to man What was your secret to getting into distribution getting in every single retail store on the planet hard knocks?
101
That's the name of your channel, right?
102
It's literally hard knocks like I was on a date with my wife
103
and I would ask her before she was my wife Hold on.
104
I need to check into this bodega I need to go into this convenience store
105
and I would like sell or try to get the product the right shelves one at a time one at a time.
106
You build this thing, it took years and years
107
and years of knocking down all those doors and slowly but surely you just keep building it.
108
What's a lesson about money that is not taught in school
109
that you would instill in everybody around the world watching right now?
110
My grandfather was a rancher in Mexico.
111
He was a cattleman
112
and he said a man that's too proud to pick up a penny is not worth a penny
113
and I think it's a really important lesson too.
114
Don't feel like you're above saving that dollar
115
and he used to also say mind the pennies and the dollars will mind themselves.
116
Be humble enough to appreciate that one penny.
117
I'm walking on the street,
118
I will bend over and pick up the penny,
119
not just because it's a penny,
120
but it's because it says that you're never gonna be above trying to hustle
121
and trying to work hard and appreciate and stretch every dollar.
122
What is your best branding advice?
123
How do you now?
124
I'm 56.
125
Daniel, if me and you died tomorrow and you had one more guiding principle to lead with the younger generation,
126
what would that be?
127
Be kind to every human being.
128
The reason the company is called kind is I named it after my father.
129
He was a Holocaust survivor.
130
He was in the Dachau concentration camp.
131
American soldiers risked their lives to liberate him.
132
And in spite of all of the horrors that he went through,
133
he was kind to everybody,
134
whether he was the bank teller or the bank president,
135
whether he was a flight attendant, everybody.
136
He told jokes, he was kind,
137
he was loving to every human being.
138
He saw his role as bringing smiles to everybody.
139
And that's the very small way what I tried to emulate
140
to make this a better world than the way we found it.
141
That's beautiful right there.
142
How important was the entity structuring when you were building Kind Bar?
143
Did you start like an LLC or an S Corp?
144
Or what did you end up starting?
145
It's super important.
146
We used to be an LLC and it was just passed through so it's efficient.
147
The disadvantage of an LLC is that if you do have profits
148
and you're paying them every year and I was actually profitable and I was paying taxes every year.
149
When you have a C-Corp structure, there's double taxation.
150
But if you're just focusing on growth,
151
not on profits every year,
152
it's a very good structure because then you're not paying taxes unless you have a distribution or a liquidity event.
153
And if you're not planning to do it,
154
if you're planning to grow for the future,
155
then a C-Corp structure is good and you aim to just keep the money with the company,
156
reinvest, reinvest, grow, grow, grow.
157
And then you're compounding without having to be paying taxes every year.
158
It's super important for you to get the right structure.
159
There's a company that we use called Bizi for all of our entity structuring for our businesses.
160
They make it super affordable and easy for any entrepreneur.
161
Easy?
162
Yeah.
163
Yeah.
164
B-I-Z-E-E.
165
And the best part is you can do it like in seconds.
166
You can turn that idea into a business overnight in seconds.
167
So it's like super effective and efficient for all the entrepreneurs out there.
168
Very cool.
169
I'll recommend it to my team.
170
Guys, we're going to be meeting Tom Cruise very soon,
171
but we just interviewed a billionaire.
172
Did you hear what he just told me?
173
He said one of the most important decisions you will ever make is how you structure your company.
174
Not marketing, not product, setting up your business entity.
175
And he's right, guys.
176
Look, if you don't set your business up the right way from day one,
177
you risk losing so much money,
178
paying way too much in taxes,
179
and even putting your personal assets on the line.
180
And that's exactly why when I built my multi-million dollar business,
181
I went through Busy.
182
They handled setting up my LLC,
183
and they continue to handle my state compliance filings each year to keep my company in good standing with the state.
184
With Busy, not only can you form your LLC or S Corp in minutes,
185
You'll also get a free registered agent for a year and lifetime compliance alerts so you never miss a deadline.
186
No lawyers, no confusion, just the peace of mind for managing your business in one place.
187
So if you're serious about turning your idea or side hustle into a real business,
188
guys, do not wait.
189
All you have to do is go down
190
and click the link in the description of this video to start your business with Busy Today.
191
But with that being said,
192
let's get back to the video.
193
All right, you guys, so I know we're going to be linking up an interview with the legendary Tom Cruise very soon.
194
But before we do that,
195
I've got a crazy surprise for you guys.
196
So check this out.
197
Most people spend their entire lives trying to make just $1 million.
198
But Thomas Healy, no, no,
199
no, no, no. He became one of the youngest billionaires in the world at 28 years old.
200
And I'm going to be meeting up with him right now to figure out exactly how he did it.
201
Guys, he literally went head to head with Tesla,
202
one of the biggest companies in the world.
203
And he built an electric trucking company,
204
took it public to the NASDAQ,
205
and became a billionaire before he turned 30 years old.
206
So we're gonna be figuring out exactly how he did that and how you can turn an idea into an empire.
207
So let's waste no more time.
208
Let's meet Thomas right now and go see what he has to say.
209
All right, you guys.
210
So we're right now here meeting up with that man Thomas right here.
211
The youngest self-made billionaire in the world, you guys.
212
Come on.
213
What's going on, Thomas?
214
How you doing, man?
215
It's great to meet you.
216
Appreciate you coming out, man.
217
We were letting them know, man.
218
28 years old, you became the youngest self-made billionaire in the entire world.
219
I did.
220
Great to meet you and looking forward to sharing a little advice with your audience.
221
I got one rule for this interview.
222
No holding back.
223
I need you to give them a billion dollars worth of game.
224
Can we make that happen?
225
At just 33 years old,
226
I've been through a lot in this short life,
227
and so I can't wait to share more.
228
Let's make it happen.
229
Who am I here with today?
230
Have you heard of Kylie Jenner?
231
Yes.
232
So in 2020, I dethroned her as the youngest self-made billionaire in the world.
233
Are you serious?
234
So I took my company public.
235
We're trading on the New York Stock Exchange,
236
and in 2020, we hit a $10 billion valuation.
237
So how old were you when you became a billionaire?
238
So I was 28.
239
So this was all new.
240
I became the youngest public company CEO that there was and we were going public on the New York Stock Exchange,
241
ringing the bell, opening the markets.
242
Now, the average age of a billionaire is what?
243
Is it like 70, 80 years old or something?
244
Most people get there later in their life.
245
I was super fortunate that I started this company.
246
I dropped out of college.
247
I was in Carnegie Mellon,
248
and I had this idea of,
249
let's go electrify commercial vehicles.
250
Dropped out and started this journey,
251
and a few years later,
252
we went public and have raised about $750 million to date.
253
You had an electric trucking company.
254
You were competing with Tesla.
255
Were you ever afraid of competition?
256
We were.
257
Now, this has been a wild journey.
258
So we went public, focusing on electric powertrains,
259
but then the market's changed.
260
Electric vehicles have gotten decimated over the past handful of years.
261
And so we actually made the bold move of pivoting out of that industry,
262
and we went all in on a technology we acquired out of GE Aerospace,
263
where now we're actually making electricity.
264
We have what we think is the future of how electricity is going to be made.
265
So what's safe to say that you have to master the power of Pivot in order to be a successful entrepreneur?
266
We did.
267
We saw that all of our competitors were going bankrupt.
268
They were running out of cash.
269
They weren't able to raise more.
270
And we said, well, we still have capital left on our balance sheet.
271
Why don't we go into a different market where we see so much growth?
272
We saw AI, we saw commercial buildings,
273
industrial applications needing more power.
274
And we have the solution for that.
275
Now people that achieve that billionaire status,
276
what do they do differently in your eyes than millionaires?
277
One of our early investors,
278
he's a billionaire, he said,
279
winning is your only option.
280
You can't think about what ways could I potentially lose at this,
281
how could we fail.
282
You got to put all your time
283
and effort into figuring out how am I going to win and just work relentlessly at that.
284
It has to work or it has to work.
285
Yeah, winning is the only option.
286
Most people spend their entire lives trying to make a million dollars.
287
You became a billionaire before 30.
288
What's the best industry somebody can get into right now in today's world?
289
AI, right now.
290
AI is booming.
291
It is unbelievable.
292
I think it will totally transform businesses, industries.
293
So what we're doing is we're saying,
294
well, we got the way to power AI, power data centers.
295
So that's the industry I've chosen.
296
And I think it's a winner.
297
Are you a good negotiator?
298
I think I'm decent at it.
299
I think it's tough to raise $750 million if you're not good at negotiating.
300
So give me a piece of negotiation advice right here that can change somebody's life.
301
Never get into a position where you're desperate.
302
That's where things usually go wrong.
303
You have to have leverage.
304
Absolutely.
305
Leverages everything in a negotiation and you need to be willing to walk away when it doesn't make sense.
306
I had, remember it clear as day like it was yesterday,
307
a night where we were supposed to close the deal the following day.
308
The investor tried to change the terms on us.
309
And so that evening I flew to Florida,
310
met with a different investor
311
and the following day signed the entire deal with a totally new investor because we had another option.
312
So it's safe to say that if somebody else won't, somebody else will.
313
Yeah, absolutely.
314
And you got to have those people bought in around you
315
that are willing to make that leap or jump with you and dive in.
316
And you've got to know your worth of business
317
because you could have been comfortable with closing on that deal when they tried to change the terms of last minute.
318
So you've got to know your worth.
319
You've got to know your worth and you've got to always keep a plan B, right?
320
Because the path that you're going on could change at any time.
321
And whether it's because of something you did or some factor that you have zero control over,
322
things change in this world.
323
And you've got to have different options lined up to be able to jump on them in a second.
324
And your last message to the younger generation.
325
Figure out what you want to do in your life and then go all in.
326
One of the mottos at Carnegie Mellon was my heart is in the work.
327
And I think that's a great thing to live by.
328
You got amazing advice, my friend.
329
I appreciate it.
330
Thank you so much for your time, Andrew.
331
Guys, we just interviewed one of the youngest self-made billionaires in the entire world.
332
And he just gave a beautiful interview for all the entrepreneurs out there.
333
But listen to me very carefully, you guys.
334
The time has now come.
335
I'm about to go head in and interview the legendary Tom Cruise.
336
Guys, he's one of the most renowned actors.
337
One of the greatest of all time.
338
And I'm going to be getting the secrets on how he became one of the richest
339
and most successful men in all of Hollywood.
340
So let's go meet up with Tom Cruise and go see what he has to say.
341
Come on.
342
Listen you guys I've done some crazy interviews before Shaquille O'Neal,
343
Mark Cuban, the owner of the Texans,
344
the CEO of Nike But I don't think I've ever felt this way before an interview man
345
because this is Tom Cruise man This is Top Gun Mavic.
346
This is Mission Impossible man.
347
You've all seen a Tom Cruise movie before.
348
This one's gonna be crazy you guys Come on in.
349
Let's go Alright you guys so we are in the hotel in San Antonio,
350
Texas right now waiting to do the interview with Tom I
351
want to put this in perspective for you guys of how crazy this interview actually is.
352
So this is probably going to be one of the last Mission Impossible movies of all time.
353
And here's the thing, guys,
354
Mission Impossible comes out tomorrow.
355
So the fact that we're doing this the day before on his world tour is absolutely crazy.
356
In my home state of Texas,
357
you guys, no better place to do this, man.
358
Shout out to San Antonio.
359
Shout out to Texas.
360
But yeah, guys, we'll be linking up with Tom soon.
361
So get ready for this one.
362
James.
363
Hey, James.
364
How you doing, man?
365
It's great to meet you.
366
Great to meet you.
367
How you doing?
368
Great.
369
I'm happy to be here.
370
Thanks for being here, man.
371
Absolutely.
372
He was in a helicopter over here directing me doing that.
373
So he would be in a helicopter and he'd open the door.
374
He would hang out the helicopter in our first day.
375
He always had to remind him to put his seatbelt on.
376
But thanks for being here.
377
James, thought you'd give me a little insight.
378
Yeah, I appreciate that.
379
It was a lot.
380
Thank you.
381
No, thank you.
382
What industry did you decide to pursue a career in?
383
Movies, which encompasses almost every industry.
384
I'm here with Tom Cruise.
385
Yeah, man.
386
It's nice to see you.
387
You've been a top actor for decades.
388
What's been the biggest driving factor of your success throughout your career?
389
I don't know what separates me necessarily.
390
I think everyone has their own things that they're interested in, and it's passion.
391
And finding something that you're passionate about,
392
that it's not what I do,
393
it is who I am.
394
And so those things that I encourage that in others,
395
and I'm always asking people,
396
what is your passion and why don't you pursue that?
397
And it's my passion to make films,
398
my interest in humanity, my interest in life and how it works,
399
my interest in knowledge, and knowledge that I can apply to attain the goals
400
that I have set for myself and that of my filmmakers together.
401
Just very passionate about learning, very passionate about storytelling.
402
You've become obsessed with all aspects of film and movies.
403
How important was it for you to become obsessed?
404
It's not obsessed.
405
You know, it's interesting.
406
You know, obsession can have a negative connotation.
407
It's an interest.
408
You know, as I said,
409
you look at the amount of industries that it takes and encompasses all of life in terms of working with groups,
410
working with individuals, as a producer, as an actor.
411
So it is a passion.
412
It's something that just interests me.
413
So I enjoy learning about it.
414
I enjoy watching films in the theater.
415
I enjoy the crews that I work with and being directed here,
416
you know, with Christopher McQuarrie.
417
And so I just, I love what I do.
418
And I feel very privileged to be able to do something
419
that I love to do and have audiences accept me and want to be entertained by me.
420
When you look at a lot of people,
421
the number one reason I see that they feel is
422
because they don't believe in themselves but when you look at your career,
423
you've done every death-defying stunt imaginable.
424
What was your perspective on fear and taking risks?
425
Do you not fear anything?
426
No, it's not a matter.
427
I don't mind being afraid.
428
I know fear is the unknown,
429
and I enjoy feeling that because it also puts me in a position of I want to know.
430
And the way that I approach it is just,
431
as I said, I look for knowledge that I can apply.
432
And when it's applied, you get the correct results.
433
So that's what I'm looking for in terms of everything in my life.
434
And I'm someone who, if it's not true for me,
435
it's not true for me.
436
If something isn't real for me,
437
no matter what, I have to know and experience it and understand it for myself.
438
And when I do that,
439
the fear goes away, the adrenaline is still there, the excitement, the adventure.
440
I want an adventurous life.
441
I want it.
442
I like adventure.
443
I like exploring things that,
444
you know, you look at the aerial stuff that we're talking about here earlier,
445
you know, when we're doing stuff like this,
446
it's like how to figure out how to do something like this.
447
How do we get to this?
448
So this is you hanging off a plane right now?
449
Oh yeah, it is and the amount of knowledge that we needed to know just to be able to get this shot.
450
I'm an aerobatic pilot.
451
I fly airplanes.
452
I fly this airplane.
453
I fly it in all different maneuvers.
454
It's what piece of equipment to get this shot.
455
So we had to understand the different camera equipment.
456
We developed camera equipment and technology just to get this,
457
the speed at which this aircraft is traveling.
458
And I also have to understand what the pilot knows.
459
Because I'm a pilot, I know the dangers and where we're getting this aircraft to a stall.
460
So when I'm here, I'm not just acting and moving in between the wings.
461
I'm also perceiving what he's going through and the air molecules coming over that wing.
462
When you're approaching something like this you don't know until you start really looking at it.
463
So what I'll do is I'll set a goal
464
and I'll write a list of all the things I think I need to know,
465
to learn, to be in order to get a shot like this.
466
And I align it with Christopher McQuarrie and our entire film group and so we're also just exploring it.
467
You don't just sit in a room and draw this up and think you can get this.
468
There is physically how do I train to get here,
469
what kind of force, the wardrobe.
470
There's so many different elements that an audience doesn't know why or how,
471
but the amount of years to be able to get to this,
472
to do a shot like this,
473
and the collaborative efforts between me and McHugh.
474
You know, the dreams that we have,
475
and I'm hearing his dreams of what he wants to create,
476
and I want to participate with that,
477
and then he hears mine.
478
It's just this wonderful back and forth with ourselves and with our whole film crew,
479
and that's what I love.
480
Where did you work at that come from?
481
Just my desire to be as competent and able as I can be.
482
That interests me excellence interests me and it's something that I know
483
that absolutes are unattainable but that I'm going to constantly strive for it.
484
It's my desire to entertain people.
485
It is my desire to deliver the very best that I've always felt for myself.
486
Even when I was a little kid before movies,
487
it's when I had any job I always wanted to understand how to do
488
that job and then do it at the very highest level that I possibly can.
489
I enjoy going for that level of perfection.
490
Your last message to the younger generation.
491
Yeah, that was it.
492
You go.
493
Look for knowledge that you can apply to your lives
494
because there's so much information out there that doesn't mean that it's accurate.
495
I'm someone who says
496
when I hear it can't be done I'm like I don't
497
know maybe you know how many times do you think the people weren't like oh you could do this
498
so it's how to accumulate knowledge that is applicable towards your goals
499
and don't be so afraid to be afraid
500
or nervous the important thing is to keep pursuing your dreams
501
and finding accurate things that are gonna add to your life
502
and others you know the way that I look at life I don't live it for myself,
503
I really know that to live my life I'm thinking of others and to lead is to serve.
504
Not to tell people what to do but to help them to be better.
505
So I'd focus on that in terms of yourself personally but also others,
506
how you can contribute to your friends,
507
to your family, to your workplace in a very positive way.
508
Those things are, you know,
509
I look to improve every area that I'm in.
510
Not just myself, I'm looking at my decisions based on what are the ramifications
511
and effects of others so I think we have to think of
512
that when we're part of the group
513
so that's kind of what I do you got amazing thank
514

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?
Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
