1:17:01
...I bought one share of Blake Media
this morning.

1:17:04
You told me every stockholder
has a say in this company.

1:17:07
Even the little guy.
1:17:10
You have two minutes, but remember,
I control 49 percent of this company.

1:17:15
You're gonna have to persuade
just about everyone else...

1:17:18
...to start hating money.
1:17:27
Hello, everybody. I'm Deeds.
1:17:30
For a little while, I was a big part of this company.
1:17:33
I was wicked rich and powerful.
1:17:36
Now being rich and powerful isn't a bad thing.
1:17:40
It looks like the Monopoly guy over there
is pretty darned psyched about it.

1:17:44
But the problem is
what can happen when you decide...

1:17:47
...that you would do absolutely anything
to become rich and powerful.

1:17:52
I don't know who licked the red off
your lollipop today...

1:17:55
...but you are preaching to the wrong choir.
1:17:57
All I'm saying is, when you were kids...
1:17:59
...did you dream
about becoming a savvy investor one day...

1:18:03
...who would think with his wallet
instead of his heart?

1:18:06
Come on, I know I didn't.
1:18:09
I wanted to be a fireman.
1:18:11
I wanted to be the guy everybody called on
if they were in trouble.

1:18:15
I wanted to help people...
1:18:16
...and yeah, I wanted to slide down
those wicked awesome poles.

1:18:21
But money,
that was the last thing I thought about.

1:18:25
What about you, sir?
Did you want to be a fireman?

1:18:28
No, I did not.
1:18:31
Truth be told, I wanted to be a veterinarian.
1:18:33
Cool. Why would you want to do that?
1:18:36
-I wanted to help sick animals.
-And what do you do now?

1:18:39
I own a chain of slaughterhouses.
1:18:42
You kind of went the other way
on that one, didn't you?

1:18:45
Okay.
1:18:46
In the back. Come on.
Tell me what you wanted to be.

1:18:49
I wanted to be a magician.
1:18:53
-And what do you do now?
-I operate a pornographic website.

1:18:57
That makes people happy also, I guess.
But kind of in a grosser way.
