0:00.0	Hey guys, what's up? It's Raven, fun facts. I have never seen the movie The Notebook. And
0:17.7	that's really just one of many movies like that that are like classic movies that everyone
0:22.5	always talks about that I have never seen. And honestly, I don't really care to watch
0:26.6	it because I'm just not really a movie person. I'm not a movie person and I'm not a TV
0:31.2	show person either. Like nine times out of 10, somebody asked me like, oh, have you seen
0:35.7	this? Are you watching this? And I'm like, no, I just don't watch movies or TV shows like

1:37.2	ass more than ever before. I've always been a goal oriented person. I've always been
1:42.4	what you might call a hustler. You know, I've always had like big goals, financial
1:48.4	goals, always tried to like stay on top of that and push myself. But when I found out
1:54.3	that I was pregnant with my daughter, it like got multiplied times a hundred. And I started
1:59.0	really setting a lot of financial goals and really holding myself to it. And so I put
2:05.6	a lot of time and work and energy into doing anything that I can to try to double, triple,
