[00:04:21]>> Your circle determines who you are.

[00:04:24]>> Yeah.

[00:04:25]>> You mentioned Alex that you wouldn't blame yourself staying in Alex. A lot of people they have their own reasoning or perception in how they look at Alex. Uh for you, how would you describe living in Alex?

[00:04:40]>> It's not good. It's not good cuz everything it's here. It's here. When you get out the gate, someone selling weed, drugs, there's too many tents in one street. So you can't raise a child there. It's not a good place to raise a child. It's not. It's not.

[00:04:59]>> Yeah. Cuz it's not. There's a lot of corruption there, a lot of bad influences.

[00:05:06]Lord, >> do you wish that maybe you could have been staying at a different place?

[00:05:12]>> Yeah, I'll be far by now. I'll be far. I don't want to lie. I would be far cuz Alex has a lot a lot lot lot bad bad bad bad bad persons. Yeah.

[00:05:23]>> Yeah. A lot of bad people there.

[00:05:24]>> I've I've been to Alex before and the streets are small.

[00:05:29]>> Yeah. Everything is there. Everything.

[00:05:32]Everything. You get everything there and it's a fast life there.

[00:05:36]>> Yeah.

[00:05:36]>> It's a fast life. Fast fast.

[00:05:40]Yeah. Yeah.

[00:05:42]>> True to that.

[00:05:42]>> The kids are on the streets. Um >> unemployment rate is very high. Everyone is on the street.

[00:05:50]>> Like there's what can I say?

[00:05:54]>> Yeah.

[00:05:57]There's no one to look up to cuz drug dealers. They sell weed, they sell drugs. So, who who's going to be your motivational?

[00:06:13]No one.

[00:06:26]I wouldn't recommend that place for someone else.

[00:06:31]I wouldn't call Alexandra. It's rough there.

[00:06:37]>> How did you guys get to stay there?

[00:06:41]>> My mom who now Okay. My mom went to the went through the same thing that I'm going through right now. She misused her money in a bad way cuz she didn't buy the house cash. Then we had to come back where his parents her parents were staying. Yeah. Cuz she didn't sell the house here at Alex.

[00:07:07]>> So we had to come back after being ev evicted from that house. Emit rent.

[00:07:14]We had to come back.

[00:07:15]>> Were you renting there or maybe it wasn't?

[00:07:17]>> She was renting.

[00:07:20]She was renting cuz I was young by the time she was renting.

[00:07:23]>> And you came back to Alex?

[00:07:25]>> Yes. That's your grandparents house basically.

[00:07:28]>> Yes. Yes. Yes.

[00:07:31]>> And life just continued.

[00:07:32]>> It continued.

[00:07:34]And I was a cheese boy. I never I would say that my first time facing poverty. The way things are hard now at home.

[00:07:56]It's my first time first time facing this this kind of a situation.

[00:08:03]>> Um Good cheese boy. Good cheese boy.

[00:08:15]Understand if if I would I was not picky. If you come with the jersey, I would wear that jersey no matter what from Mr. Prize or >> Okay.

[00:09:18]>> Buying for yourself?

[00:09:19]>> No, I wouldn't buy for myself cuz I know there's there's things that I get from my mom and dad.

[00:09:28]>> Yeah. So as a grade seven already exposed to a large amount of money >> exposed to an adult life. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:09:39]Due to that due to that >> and also life everything is fast at the age of 14 out come back home. Never come back home.

[00:09:58]at the age of 13 or 14 >> and my mom is not the person whatsoever.

[00:10:08]>> She let you leave your life >> cuz who treats a cheese boy obviously and that's what she has to focus on.

[00:10:17]>> I was the only child back then. And I was the only child. So her one and only child and mind you my mom she has never worked.

[00:11:15]When did you start smoking?

[00:11:18]>> Grade six.

[00:11:21]After losing my grandad, it was a way of me of mourning cuz I had a few few friends few friends and I wouldn't go to them cuz I had everything in the house. They would come to me. So yeah, I learned smoking alone. I was alone cuz my granddad was a smoker and cancer is the one that took him away from the world.

[00:11:54]>> So So I started smoking alone.

[00:12:07]Yeah. So, what's this cancer? I want to see what's >> But he he survived cancer though.

[00:27:51]>> I told her how about then she agreed. But when the money came out, she turned her back wrong.

[00:28:15]>> So I must give her half of the money.

[00:28:21]>> And I did that did that. I gave her 480K.
