[0:46] Speaker 3: I'm doing well?
[0:47] Speaker 1: How are you pretty good? First of all, were you based?
[0:50] Speaker 1: Just get that out the way.
[0:52] Speaker 3: Based out of Atlanta, Georgia?
[0:54] Speaker 1: Are you are you? Are you born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia?
[0:57] Speaker 1: Are you relocated?
[0:59] Speaker 3: Actually know not in an Atlanta natives. I was born
[1:01] Speaker 3: in Jackson, Alabama and raised in Indian Ridge. It's about
[1:05] Speaker 3: an hour above Mobile, Alabama.
[1:07] Speaker 1: Now Jackson, Alabama. Now you know I'm from a big city, Okay,
[1:11] Speaker 1: So I have a different point of view versus what
[1:15] Speaker 1: your might be. So tell us about life in Jackson, Alabama.
[1:19] Speaker 3: Oh, it's very small. Everybody knows everybody. It's just a
[1:24] Speaker 3: very close knit community. We had we do have a Walmart.
[1:28] Speaker 3: That's one of the things that everybody has. We do
[1:32] Speaker 3: have Walmart. We do have traffic lights. But most most,
[1:37] Speaker 3: most of us grew up and lived on our own land,
[1:41] Speaker 3: dirt roads, had farms, you know, things of that native
[1:45] Speaker 3: very very country, very country.
[1:48] Speaker 1: Now now And how did you get out of Jackson?
[1:51] Speaker 1: Was it education? A broach odic Jackson, job opportunities? How
[1:55] Speaker 1: did you get out of Jackson? What motivated you get
[1:57] Speaker 1: out of Jackson?
[1:58] Speaker 3: It was definitely educated, And I left. I left my
[2:02] Speaker 3: hometown on a full scholarship to Alabama and m University
[2:07] Speaker 3: in Huntsville, Alabama. And I knew that I was going
[2:10] Speaker 3: to leave and actually go to college and be a
[2:13] Speaker 3: CPA as early as the eleventh grade. So I knew
[2:16] Speaker 3: that I was getting out and I was gonna use
[2:20] Speaker 3: financial literacy as a way to do it. And that's
[2:22] Speaker 3: exactly what I did. So I left Jackson, Alabama, and
[2:26] Speaker 3: I haven't looked back. I love it.
[2:28] Speaker 1: First of all, you still got that accent now you're
[2:30] Speaker 1: not getting rid of that accent though, You're not going
[2:32] Speaker 1: to go to New York at act like you're in
[2:34] Speaker 1: New Yorker now with this accent.
[2:36] Speaker 3: Absolutely not. I am a country girl born and braided.
[2:39] Speaker 1: I love it. I love it.
[2:41] Speaker 3: Now.
[2:41] Speaker 1: You went to the HBCU, you know, Alabama, and muh,
[2:44] Speaker 1: did that have an impact in your life? Tell us
[2:46] Speaker 1: about that black excellence that they're teaching academically and these hbc.
[2:50] Speaker 3: Youths absolutely in a world where we are the minority,
[2:55] Speaker 3: going to a place where we was a majority and
[2:57] Speaker 3: we were treated as such really helped, I would say,
[3:02] Speaker 3: my self esteem, and it also helped how I looked
[3:05] Speaker 3: at myself when it when it came to a professional
[3:09] Speaker 3: in this big world outside of an HBCU, it kind
[3:12] Speaker 3: of built it kind of built me for what was
[3:15] Speaker 3: to come. And especially with the teachers that were there,
[3:20] Speaker 3: they prepared us in a way that I feel like
[3:23] Speaker 3: I would not have been prepared had I not gone
[3:26] Speaker 3: to an HBCU. So there were things that were taught
[3:30] Speaker 3: for us, like survival skills that I don't think I
[3:33] Speaker 3: would have gotten had I went to a had I
[3:36] Speaker 3: chosen a different school. And when I say survival, survival skills.
[3:40] Speaker 3: I'm not just talking about, you know, how to provide
[3:42] Speaker 3: for yourself or things of that nature. No, they taught
[3:44] Speaker 3: us how to operate in a world where we aren't
[3:48] Speaker 3: the majority, where systemic racism still exists. They taught us
[3:52] Speaker 3: how to, you know, always be prepared to over deliver
[3:56] Speaker 3: an underpromise, so that you're always on the or better.
[4:02] Speaker 3: And it definitely shows. I came out in twenty thirteen
[4:06] Speaker 3: and to say, I'm proud of my classmates and even
[4:09] Speaker 3: those before me and after me have done some amazing
[4:12] Speaker 3: things coming from an HBCU. Whereas when I expressed that
[4:16] Speaker 3: I would be going to an HBCU, I was met
[4:19] Speaker 3: with comments such as, you're so much better than that,
[4:22] Speaker 3: Why would you go there? Why would you limit yourself?
[4:25] Speaker 3: When in actuality, going to an HBCU was the best
[4:27] Speaker 3: thing I ever did, and it didn't limit me. It
[4:30] Speaker 3: actually catapulted me into my career and where I am today,
[4:35] Speaker 3: and I wouldn't change the thing.
[4:36] Speaker 1: Yuh, you are a motivator. I'm telling you. You know
[4:39] Speaker 1: they need to put you on tape. You know, they
[4:41] Speaker 1: need to put you like on the billboard right outside
[4:43] Speaker 1: of Alabama, A and.
[4:44] Speaker 3: M Yes, sir, listen to Jasmine Young.
[4:48] Speaker 1: She will teach you right because you know a lot
[4:50] Speaker 1: of people stereotypes, you know, will stop you from being
[4:56] Speaker 1: reaching great heights. Because always that's why I always talk about,
[5:00] Speaker 1: you know, where you came from, because a lot of
[5:02] Speaker 1: people say, you know, they put people a certain educational reach,
[5:07] Speaker 1: because it's the same thing small towns in inner city
[5:09] Speaker 1: because I came from in the city fifth Ward, that's
[5:12] Speaker 1: where I was born and raised. So people like me
[5:14] Speaker 1: weren't supposed to get out according to them, you know,
[5:17] Speaker 1: people like me, you know, and when I met people,
[5:19] Speaker 1: they go, oh, you're different.
[5:21] Speaker 4: You know.
[5:21] Speaker 1: I never knew how to take that when they said that,
[5:23] Speaker 1: oh you're different, you know, because because you know, it
[5:26] Speaker 1: was always like, what do you mean different? You know,
[5:29] Speaker 1: because my teachers prepared me to be this way, they
[5:32] Speaker 1: told me or what I could be in high school.
[5:35] Speaker 1: Because if they didn't tell me these things, like your
[5:37] Speaker 1: teachers told you at Alabama and m I'll tell you,
[5:40] Speaker 1: I would not be the person I am today. But
[5:43] Speaker 1: they saw something in me, jazz when it allowed me
[5:46] Speaker 1: to be able to sit on this microphone and talk
[5:49] Speaker 1: to motivating people like you. Because that's the story that
[5:52] Speaker 1: you want to be able to put out there, and
[5:54] Speaker 1: what inspired me to do this interview was that your
[5:58] Speaker 1: drive about financial literacy spread financial literacy around the world,
[6:02] Speaker 1: one family at a time.
[6:04] Speaker 3: Talk to us about that absolutely. So I learned early
[6:08] Speaker 3: on that my passion for financial literacy was actually going
[6:13] Speaker 3: to was actually my purpose, and I'm blessed at both
[6:16] Speaker 3: my passion and my purpose aligned. Because I had a
[6:18] Speaker 3: knack for numbers growing up. I counted everything, even my
[6:22] Speaker 3: food particles, my steps. When I would repeat things to myself,
[6:26] Speaker 3: I had to say, I'm a certain amount of times,
[6:29] Speaker 3: just really really big on numbers. I didn't know that
[6:31] Speaker 3: I had a great uncle who was a math jenius,
[6:35] Speaker 3: and apparently it was it passed down to me, so
[6:38] Speaker 3: I knew back in high school when I was met
[6:42] Speaker 3: with the comment that everybody wasn't fed with a silver
[6:44] Speaker 3: spoone like me, it infuriated me, But it infuriated me
[6:48] Speaker 3: to make a difference, because in all actuality, I don't
[6:52] Speaker 3: believe I was fed with the silver spoone. My mom
[6:54] Speaker 3: and dad they grew up poor. I mean, we're already
[6:57] Speaker 3: in the country, but my mom was one of eight.
[6:59] Speaker 3: My dad is the baby wood seventeen. They were poor
[7:01] Speaker 3: and they didn't have a lot growing up. But one
[7:03] Speaker 3: thing I one thing they did for my brother and
[7:06] Speaker 3: I is they worked very, very hard.
[7:09] Speaker 1: They came from eight, they came from eight and seventeen,
[7:11] Speaker 1: and they just had two kids.
[7:14] Speaker 3: That's it.
[7:18] Speaker 1: Eight seventeen and you the baby continue to just throw.
[7:23] Speaker 1: I just had to stop that when you said eighteen
[7:25] Speaker 1: seventeen and then only just two of y'all and they
[7:29] Speaker 1: all on the farm.
[7:30] Speaker 3: Okay, but yeah, but we had a lot of cousins
[7:33] Speaker 3: and we grew up on our own land. And I'll
[7:36] Speaker 3: be honest, back then, I was ashamed of where I
[7:39] Speaker 3: came from because I lived on a dirt road. There
[7:41] Speaker 3: was no through traffic. Everybody knew everybody. It was farm
[7:44] Speaker 3: animals everywhere, trees, gullies, all types of things. And it
[7:49] Speaker 3: wasn't until I actually went to my HBCU and got
[7:52] Speaker 3: into my career that I realized that I really did.
[7:56] Speaker 3: I really did come from a rich heritage, not only
[8:01] Speaker 3: not only the place that I lived it's called Indian Ridge,
[8:04] Speaker 3: but I'm an eighth Indian. I had no idea that
[8:07] Speaker 3: my grandparents were Cherokee Indians, had no ideas so we
[8:12] Speaker 3: lived on over seventy eight plus acres of our own land.
[8:16] Speaker 3: Back then, as a child, I didn't realize that that
[8:20] Speaker 3: was something to be proud of us. All of these roads.
[8:23] Speaker 3: We walked the roads and ate from eight from the
[8:26] Speaker 3: fruit of the trees, plums, mustardized apples, pears, pigs like
[8:31] Speaker 3: we farmed. We had animals, pigs, horses, chickens like we
[8:36] Speaker 3: had it. But from my standpoint, because I had never
[8:40] Speaker 3: left Jackson, Alabama before I went to college, was this
[8:44] Speaker 3: is country, Like, why can't we live in the city,
[8:47] Speaker 3: you know, a big house we don't have we don't
[8:49] Speaker 3: have cable like, we don't have a pool. You know,
[8:52] Speaker 3: our rolls are dirt roads. But I realized that what
[8:56] Speaker 3: my parents gave my brother and I was a basic
[8:59] Speaker 3: foundation of how to be a responsible financial adult. And
[9:04] Speaker 3: they surrounded themselves with people that had the financial education
[9:07] Speaker 3: that they wanted to have. And then they also held
[9:10] Speaker 3: each other accountable for the finances in the household, even
[9:13] Speaker 3: down to me and my brother. My dad would give
[9:15] Speaker 3: us two people. My dad was always gone before we
[9:18] Speaker 3: got up to go to school because he was already
[9:21] Speaker 3: at work. But he would leave two twenty dollars bills.
[9:23] Speaker 3: Two twenty dollars bills on the table, and my brother
[9:26] Speaker 3: and I knew that outside of any school requirement, if
[9:30] Speaker 3: we wanted to buy anything, whether it was gas for
[9:34] Speaker 3: the car, to get the band, practice, basketball practice, softball practice,
[9:38] Speaker 3: whatever snacks, anything, we had to make that twenty dollars
[9:41] Speaker 3: work because we weren't getting in this and it was
[9:45] Speaker 3: it was actually that budget that my dad gave us.
[9:48] Speaker 3: To this day, my parents have never purchased a cell
[9:50] Speaker 3: phone for me. Every minute I had on my cell
[9:53] Speaker 3: phone back then, and I'm dating myself was a bit,
[9:55] Speaker 3: but the minutes that I had on my phone back then,
[9:58] Speaker 3: I purchased them because my dad taught me, hey, look
[10:01] Speaker 3: this is all you get. You gotta figure out how
[10:03] Speaker 3: to make it work. And it was that example that
[10:06] Speaker 3: allowed us to be able to have the things that
[10:09] Speaker 3: we wanted to have. And to my peers, because they
[10:12] Speaker 3: weren't getting it, it looked as if I was privileged
[10:15] Speaker 3: or if I was fed with a silver respoon, when
[10:17] Speaker 3: in actuality, my parents gave my brother an example and
[10:21] Speaker 3: that was it, and I realized that I wanted to
[10:25] Speaker 3: and that's that's actually when I decided that I wasn't
[10:27] Speaker 3: gonna gonna become a professional singer, Mayor Michael Jackson. I
[10:31] Speaker 3: was asked, it gonna be a CPA.
[10:34] Speaker 1: Can you sing those, Jasmine?
[10:36] Speaker 3: You know I can hold the tunes. You know. All
[10:40] Speaker 3: the others were say different. But you know, I've been
[10:44] Speaker 3: seeing since I was five years old. It's not something
[10:46] Speaker 3: that I do often anymore. I did sing a lot
[10:49] Speaker 3: in Hunting.
[10:50] Speaker 1: You you kid, they let you sing as you get older.
[10:54] Speaker 1: They tell you truth.
[10:55] Speaker 3: Okay, sung in. I sung in college, and I also
[11:02] Speaker 3: sang on them at my church.
[11:03] Speaker 1: Oh, praise tea. Now praise t is a lot of
[11:05] Speaker 1: people now and there's a lot of energy. Okay.
[11:08] Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know that I come from a musically
[11:11] Speaker 3: in client famous okay.
[11:13] Speaker 1: Okay, Now they got a musical ink class family and
[11:16] Speaker 1: then mathematically inclent family, and you one eighth with your
[11:19] Speaker 1: one age Cherokee. Yes, sir, you're you're working it. You're
[11:22] Speaker 1: working it. First of all. First of all, Jasmine, y'all,
[11:26] Speaker 1: this is an incredible interview from an authentic tone. You know,
[11:30] Speaker 1: because of the fact that you were telling me who
[11:33] Speaker 1: you are. You're honestly breaking down with I think coming
[11:37] Speaker 1: folk talk, coming folks talk, because that's all I was offered,
[11:42] Speaker 1: you know, And I would complain. I would complain about
[11:44] Speaker 1: the clothes I wear. I would complain about everything, not
[11:47] Speaker 1: realizing that my parents did not allow anybody in our
[11:51] Speaker 1: house to curse. We couldn't curse.
[11:54] Speaker 3: I didn't.
[11:54] Speaker 1: I tell people today, I did not utter a curse
[11:57] Speaker 1: word until I was nineteen years old. Nineteen years old
[12:01] Speaker 1: because my parents raised me that way. But I thought,
[12:05] Speaker 1: oh my god, this is the worst. But in the
[12:07] Speaker 1: process of raising me that way, I had to speak correctly.
[12:12] Speaker 1: I had this no. I had to have a vernacular
[12:14] Speaker 1: because I always tell people you cursed, you use you
[12:17] Speaker 1: like using five words with a fireword, because it just
[12:20] Speaker 1: shortcuts your your intellect and shortcuts your ability to communicate.
[12:25] Speaker 1: And so when I hear your story, and I remember going,
[12:28] Speaker 1: because I'm from Houston, Texas, and we'd got to Bowisier
[12:31] Speaker 1: and Shreeport, Louisiana, and we see black people on the
[12:34] Speaker 1: farm and they had the little you know, the outhouses
[12:37] Speaker 1: and the little pain by the bed, and I would go,
[12:40] Speaker 1: what the heck is going on here? I can't get
[12:42] Speaker 1: away from here. But I realized now all my life
[12:45] Speaker 1: I've been trying to get back to that, Jasmine.
[12:47] Speaker 3: Absolutely, yes, yes, And it's like now when I go home,
[12:53] Speaker 3: I get the best sleep. It's so peaceful there. Wow,
[12:57] Speaker 3: it's so peaceful there.
[12:59] Speaker 4: Please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with more
[13:02] Speaker 4: Money Making Conversations Masterclass. Welcome back to the Money Making
[13:12] Speaker 4: Conversations Masterclass, hosted by Rashan McDonald.
[13:16] Speaker 1: The event called the Annual Black Wall Street Black Business Expo.
[13:21] Speaker 1: Tell us what that is all about, Miss Jasmine.
[13:23] Speaker 3: Yok Absolutely so. The Black Wall Street Black Business Expo
[13:28] Speaker 3: is a twofold event. Of course, we want to honor
[13:33] Speaker 3: the excellence that existed in the Greenwood District commonly known
[13:39] Speaker 3: as Black Wall Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, back in the
[13:41] Speaker 3: nineteen hundred. Unfortunately, due to racism, that community was burned
[13:47] Speaker 3: down and in Black Wall Street. In the time of
[13:50] Speaker 3: Black Wall Street, that was actually a time where African
[13:54] Speaker 3: Americans exemplified exceptional amounts of wealth. However, since then, the
[14:02] Speaker 3: wealth gap has increased due to the demise of Black
[14:05] Speaker 3: Wall Street. So our event pays homage to our ancestors
[14:10] Speaker 3: who exemplify black excellence through entrepreneurship, but it also is
[14:14] Speaker 3: a call to action for today's entrepreneurs to use that
[14:19] Speaker 3: spirit of Black Wall Street, one to recreate the generational
[14:25] Speaker 3: wealth that existed back then, but also to create social
[14:29] Speaker 3: change and use the black dollar to actually get legislators
[14:33] Speaker 3: to make bills and laws that will allow us the
[14:38] Speaker 3: equity and the social justice that we are. So it's
[14:43] Speaker 3: long overdue for us to receive. So we're using this event.
[14:47] Speaker 3: Go ahead.
[14:47] Speaker 1: No, why aren't you running for public office? I'm telling you,
[14:54] Speaker 1: I'm just hearing you. You're talking about social change, just
[14:59] Speaker 1: mentioned politics. You out here, you have a good sense,
[15:02] Speaker 1: you have a very very marketable personality. You have an
[15:06] Speaker 1: engaging tone of of how you are, your background, and
[15:11] Speaker 1: how you're gonna move the community for why aren't you
[15:14] Speaker 1: running for public office?
[15:16] Speaker 3: Well, I'll be honest with you. Going through school, I
[15:19] Speaker 3: actually hated politics. I hated governments, which doesn't make sense
[15:24] Speaker 3: because I spent eleven and a half years of my
[15:26] Speaker 3: life as as a government employee. But I have come
[15:31] Speaker 3: to have a passion for social action and making a difference,
[15:37] Speaker 3: and I realized that for our community, the way for
[15:44] Speaker 3: us to make I guess you could say move the
[15:48] Speaker 3: needle in where we need to be economically is we
[15:51] Speaker 3: have to be civically engaged. The two are are synonymous.
[15:55] Speaker 3: You cannot have one without the other. And it just
[15:58] Speaker 3: goes back to the Black Wall Street store, which was
[16:01] Speaker 3: one of my inspirations. And you know, I'm actually toying
[16:05] Speaker 3: with the idea of actually going to law school. I've
[16:07] Speaker 3: ordered my Lsat book and I'm thinking that's the way
[16:10] Speaker 3: I want to go. But I would do not. I
[16:13] Speaker 3: don't want to fit for the bar because it's literally
[16:15] Speaker 3: like seeing for the CPA exam, of course without numbers.
[16:19] Speaker 3: But I do want to see us in a better
[16:21] Speaker 3: place than I believe as a community we can be
[16:24] Speaker 3: in a better place because we've done it before and
[16:27] Speaker 3: Black Wall Street is an example of it.
[16:29] Speaker 1: Now, when you thought of this idea, what motive did
[16:32] Speaker 1: you have? A did you pitch it to somebody and
[16:35] Speaker 1: they go, what are you talking about? What did you think?
[16:38] Speaker 3: I did not. I'll tell you what what sparked this.
[16:42] Speaker 3: I actually wanted to do the event in twenty twenty
[16:45] Speaker 3: but COVID hit so I killed the idea. I tabled it,
[16:51] Speaker 3: and then the murder of George Floyd happened in twenty
[16:54] Speaker 3: twenty one. And what sparked it was, you know, corporations
[16:58] Speaker 3: start to state their claims they back the blue or
[17:00] Speaker 3: whether black lives matter, and for those that said they
[17:04] Speaker 3: backed the blue, our community said, okay, well, if you
[17:06] Speaker 3: back the blue, we're not going to support you. And
[17:09] Speaker 3: some of those corporations actually change their stans because we
[17:13] Speaker 3: decided that we weren't going to spend money with them.
[17:15] Speaker 3: Right now, if you're familiar with the financial industry and
[17:19] Speaker 3: the African American buying power, we are the largest group
[17:22] Speaker 3: of consumers in the world. So for a corporation to decide,
[17:26] Speaker 3: you know what, if this group of people are not
[17:28] Speaker 3: going to support us because we don't support what their
[17:31] Speaker 3: social justice, we got to change our stans. And it
[17:34] Speaker 3: was at that moment that I knew this is the
[17:37] Speaker 3: answer to all our social injustice issues is recirculating the
[17:42] Speaker 3: black dollar in our community and making those that want
[17:45] Speaker 3: our money play by our rules. And that's why I
