Late night, stud?

Yeah, my man was working on his stroke game last night

with Candice.

She got that hourglass ass, huh?

How can an ass be hourglass?

Nah, my credit card got declined,

and I was so embarrassed,

I had to Charlie Brown walk all the way home.

Yikes, so you're officially a broke-ass scrub.

Ever since he turned her down, you could

cut the tension between them with a hot butter knife.

What year is it where you grew up, again?

Zaara: Don't be too hard on yourself, Junior.

These things happen.

I mean, not to me, 'cause I am financially responsible.

Oh, here we go.

Unlike some people... like you.

Don't your parents pay for your stuff?

I mean, you can't flex

when you're still suckling on Mommy and Daddy's teat.

Okay, first, ew.

And second, Junior's parents pay his way, too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

They -- They pay for my dorm and my tuition.

Everything else, I've saved up from working.

All I'm saying is things are a lot harder

when you have to go to school and work on the side.

Yeah, I mean, that is true.

I'm blessed to be on a scholarship,

but football is pretty much a full-time job.

[ Scoffs ]

You ever try reading Nietzsche

and doing chest presses at the same time?

I-It's impossible.

Sure, blame the dumbbells.

Yeah, but even when your parents do support you,

it comes with obligations,

like having to abandon your dreams of becoming a singer

just to go into something more practical

like occupational therapy.

What?

Was singing even my dream? I can barely remember.

I'm just so focused on this one now, you know?

Well, I still need to find a way to bring in some extra bread.

With your broke ass.

How does she keep doing that?

You know what you could do?

Jump on the stock market.

You know, I've heard a lot of people make money that way.

Oh, yes, the good ol' S&P,

or NASDAQ, if you're nasty.

Literally cringe.

But here, look at this.

Welcome to "The Stock Drop."

Thanks to new apps like Robinhood and Treasure Island,

which have straight curbed commission and fees,

trading has never been more Gen Z accessible.

So you don't have to be a blue blood to get some blue chip.

In fact, forums like WallStreetBets and TikTok

have now become communities for a whole new brand

of counterculture trading and shady shorting.

GameStop, anyone?

But the main reason to invest, my children, remains the same.

That money that you plop into your bank account

for safekeeping is actually losing its value

due to inflation.

So if you aren't making your money work for you

in the market, what the hell are you doing?

Okay, wow, it's a bit harsh, but to the point.

But I don't know. It still sounds a little bit risky.

Hmm. Well, you gotta risk it if you want the biscuit, champ.

I know, but I am gonna explore some different avenues.

Okay, but if you start an OnlyFans,

I legally have to report it, as your RA.

Bro, you're just a snitch.

It's a job.

Yo, uh, expiration dates are just suggestions, right?

Yes, that is a scam to get you to buy more.

Okay, cool.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Check from Metaverse just dropped.

7,500 smackers, man.

What? $7,500.

Do you think it's a mistake?

No, bro, those speakers make bank.

Yo, that Tony Robbins dude,

his teeth are so big because there's diamonds all in them.

Oh, my gosh.

Whoo.

I'm -- I'm -- I'm working. Okay.

Listen, man, do you have any idea

how any bills I can get paid off right now?

Do you? Water bill -- paid!

We finna be wet.

The last three flatscreen payments -- paid!

Now I can finally go into that Best Buy

without the security guard chasing me out.

Yo, would you mind kicking me a few racks for my new venture?

Ray's letting me put on an open mic night weekly

at, uh, Bar None.

Okay, let's not get greedy.

Right now you're giving me

a "lotto winner's cousin" vibes right now.

But you know what I will do?

I'm gonna go get some champagne.

You know what else I'm gonna get?

I'm gonna get the dino egg oatmeal you love so much

so we can celebrate when I get back.

Yes!

Yeah. Put 'er there.

That's dynamic duo vibes right there.

Dude, I feel lighter, man. I do.

The air is clearer.

Now that I'm monied, I'm going out.

And getting that dino egg oatmeal.

See you later. Peace.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

And it doesn't get more desperate

than being pitied by a French waiter.

Hey, favorite bro.

Don't tell Devante I said that.

[ Chuckles ] How's life?

Let's skip the pleasantries, Junior.

I'm halfway through this ice cream

and every second counts, alright? What's up?

Wow, so, I'm competing for time with a Popsicle? Got it.

Uh, I'll cut to the chase.

Look, I know that Diane makes sure

that you keep something saved up,

so I was wondering if you could,

you know, loan me some cash?

Ooh.

Wait, h-how did you go from having an apartment,

a full-time job, and owning your own air fryer

to asking me for money?

Hey, I've been about my studies, okay?

All the money's going out.

Tempting. Still a no for me.

Oh, I like them square.

Aw, man, come on. Dating is expensive.

Man, I just need me a little something to tide me over, okay?

I'm gonna get a part-time job,

then I'll be able to pay you back.

Well, I'm getting to the gumball eyes,

so this is what I'm gonna do.

I will send you a little walking-around money,

but just know at some point, I will be asking you for a favor.

So no questions asked, no expiration date,

just stay ready.

Then I can fully embrace

my next exciting chapter as a mechanical engineer.

Wait, I thought you were gonna be an occupational therapist?

I haven't decided yet. Don't box me in.

Okay, I got you.

But some of this stuff is really nice.

Are you sure you don't want to sell it on eBay?

No, I'm ready to cut the cord --

[ Sighs ]

Goodbye to my trusty microphone.

You've been with me through all my musical phases,

from Christian screamo to Black gospel.

Yeah, I'd maybe keep that last one to yourself.

[ Sighs ]

May you sit at the Lord's right hand.

[ Thuds ] Ohhh.

And I was the primary dish washer in a house of nine,

so needless to say, these hands are no stranger to a sponge.

[ Chuckles ]

Well, it certainly sounds like you're qualified for the job.

Mm-hmm. Got any questions for me?

One question. What's starting pay?

So we're starting at $15 an hour.

Okay, so if I work 20 hours a week at $15 an hour,

after state and federal taxes,

plus Medicare and Social Security,

my actual take-home is like...

[ Cash register dings ]

...$260?

Give or take.

Junior: Shit, $260? No way.

I need to get paid.

I have to go all-in on the stock market,

because after all...

I say greed is good.

And done.

There are a lot of things I'm bad at,

like parallel parking or whistling,

and I swear, nobody wants to see me Griddy.

But I have discovered that there is one thing I'm really good at,

and that is making money.

You see, I was able to take that money from my brother

and invest it in mutuals, stocks, and NFTs,

sell it at just the right time,

and make bank.

Yo, yo.

Are you going to school in your pajamas

like a hungover, white sorority girl?

No, bro, I just got caught up in the biotech trade.

The market is looking really bullish right now.

Okay.

You were, to borrow your phrase,

very shady to him the other day.

Professor Wilkes: Look, Junior.

I know not everybody shares my passion for tribal anthropology,

but that was incredibly disrespectful.

What's going on?

Okay, uh, in all honesty,

I got into investing as a way to sort of pay my way here.

But it is really hard to plan around

class and the market and --

You just have to be ready to pounce.

Much like the Batwa pygmy tribe

pounced on the Ugandan government

to reclaim their ancestral land.

Don't pander to me, Johnson.

Sorry.

Look, finances are important,

but if they take away from your commitment to college,

what's it all for?

You're right, Professor. School comes first.

Trading will...

just have to go on the back burner for now.

And I highly suggest you take the extra credit that I sent.

You need it.

Will do.

Uh, and to show my gratitude,

next class, there's a shiny, red apple with your name on it.

Please exit my classroom.

Alright, and before we dive into today's lesson

about the very exciting History of the Minstrel Show,

first I have a quick announcement to make.

And that is, there will be no class next Tuesday.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Very rude response, but moving on.

The reason we won't be meeting

is because I have another talk to give at Metaverse, okay?

So if you guys want some comped tickets, let me know.

I've got cash to spare.

Tomato, tomato, tomato. No.

Alright, that's also another highly inappropriate response.

I blame your parents, honestly.

Well, actually, it's a pretty appropriate response

to you being BFFs

with a socially irresponsible company like Metaverse.

In fact, I'd call it low-key gracious, unlike Metaverse.

What are you two talking about?

And he asks us to cite our sources, like...

They do a shit ton of shady things

to protect their bottom line.

They exploit laborers to save money,

and they heavily discourage them

from forming their own unions.

for bringing this to my attention.

then an accountant, then a marine biologist,

then a crypt keeper.

Any road you take, I mean,

you're gonna have some kind of risk.

So why not risk it on something that you love, right?
