[Music] most young people think that they have a lot of friends but if you ask any old man or any old woman how many friends they have usually they'll be very happy to say they have one so one time there was a 20-year-old kid came to his father so happy his life he's 20 he's partying he's this he's that his dad asked him listen son how many friends you have Dad I have at least 100 friends you have 100 friends sh have 100 best friends everybody's my best best friend not just a friend best we go here we go there we go there we go there goes AB but you must have a thousand 2,000 friends he goes no I don't have cuz how many friends you have AB half a friend half a friend he goes I have half a friend that's it what everybody doesn't like you he goes no no no I only have a half a friend goes wow he goes no ABA says uh you shouldn't feel bad for me you should feel bad for you cuz why cuz I have more friends than you cuz what me I just told you your friends cuz you don't have any friends I have a half a friend you have nothing so I didn't know I have no friends I just told you I have 100 I prove it to you go take a sheep Slaughter it put it in a garbage bag and knock on every one of your friends uh doors and tell them listen there's a dead body just killed somebody by accident help me out let see what they say to you so the kid says okay why not now knocks on the first door Clos there blood everywhere on him on his shirt everywhere it looks like real yo listen I just killed this guy you got to help me out he get out of here close the door his face second door in his face third door fourth door fifth everybody closes the door eventually after the 50th door he goes hey he hey like what what did you do goes look come on we went on vacation last month he goes okay we on vacation so what I going to put my life in danger for you you're the murder Mur you're the problem get out of here I'm not going to put my life on the line for you closes the door next one says so why we went to the Bahamas together so why we went to school together so why you lend me $5,000 so what I'm going to go to jail for you why why am I going to go to gon for you because you lent me a few dollars because you gave me a ride to the hospital so what everybody out of the whole hundred closes their door in his face and he goes with his head down back to his father he's like ABA you're right I don't even have one friend but who's this half a friend of yours he goes yeah yeah before you change your clothes go to my friend go to my half a friend tell him the same thing it's the middle of the night he knocks on his guy's door 2:00 in the morning he listen I'm David's son I murdered this guy I need your help he goes come in come in come in as soon as he comes in try give him a towel to wipe himself what happened listen don't worry everything's going to be fine it's like ah listen it's not real actually just a sheep but thanks a lot for being a friend and he goes back to his dad and he says how'd you know that he's going to do it how' you know he's going to save me yeah that's that's what a half a friend is there for he goes what do you mean why do you keep calling a half a friend guy like that he's more than one friend he's one and a half cuz no he's only half cuz why is he only half said he's only half because you still weren't in 100% danger you weren't caught yet you just committed the murder so you always know that you could possibly he could help you get away with it if you already the cops were already catching you probably wouldn't open the door that's why he's a half a friend you weren't in 100% danger yet you're in some danger saf maybe danger maybe we can get away from him we could hide the body in the basement throw him in the ocean no one knows yet only you ABA is this such a thing as a real friend goes yeah there is go where's a real friend goz I know somebody that I used to have a real friend cuz many years ago was one guy a Jew you know they anytime the go get bored they blame the Jews for something so they blame this Jew for stealing you know in the in those days Jew that stole death penalty King decreed Jew stole death penalty you don't even have to prove it no evidence no nothing you say you stole said death so Jew says okay listen I understand I can't get away or anything like that I understand you guys want to kill me what could I do can you at least give me just a day to go say goodbye to my family one day goes well one day we're going to let you go you're not going to come back go no no no no I'll give you collateral what collateral are you going to give us my friend he's also a Jew you guys really just want to kill Jews it's not really not because you just want to kill me somebody else you kill him too so I'm going to give you another Jew my friend my best friend I'm going to give you and obviously I'm going to come back or you get to kill him anyway either way you win CU okay fine no problem his friend comes in he's collateral sits in the cell said if you're not back on Tuesday 2:00 say we're killing your friend no problem Tuesday at 1:55 said he's not back yet okay let's go the friend goes they put the Rope on his neck and all of a sudden they hear the guy Scream no I'm back I'm back I'm back like yeah but you were late I'm sorry I'm here though I'm here I'm here you can't deny that I'm here okay no come on G we're going to kill you instead and the friend says no no he puts the road back on his head goes no no no he's late he's late send him home kill me goes no I'm the one I'm the one that stole kill me cuz no but he's late he made a deal with you guys you guys can't go against your own deal it's your LW can't go against a deal so they're fighting who they're going to kill now and the King hears this commotion he goes what are these two crazy Jews doing cuz they're fighting about who you going to kill your cuz what do you mean they're fighting who you're going to kill CU this guy says kill him the other guy says kill him he goes what they want to kill each other he goes no no no they want to kill themselves so he goes bring them over here says why are you just fighting goes listen he said he's going to come back he didn't come back I want you to kill me that's your deal goes yeah but I'm the one that stole cuz why you guys want to kill yourselves for cuz let me tell you the truth your honor see him he my best friend he my best friend and I can't live without him so I rather die first and the other guy says Tor him is my best friend he's my can't live without him so I'd rather die first so the king says I can get you both off but under only one condition I said yeah make me the third friend once in a while you're going to find a friend but in reality most friends you keep them at a distance it's convenient relationships you have money you have looks you have job offerings all different types of things says befriend people but know that that your friends for a reason they want something from you most of the time they're not going to open a door at 1:30 in the morning to save you they're not going to be there even if they have 1002 200 $300 million they're not going to lend you $100 I'm telling you me personally based on experience when I had money people would throw money at me throw money they want to give me money I didn't need money but they want to throw money at me all of a sudden get into a gy I'm busy I'm this I'm that I'm not one to ask for help but one time I actually tried to see if maybe I could get help on this thing I was trying to do I call a guy at least he has $150 $200 million at least we used to do deals each deal was a million dollars minimum million 2 million 3 million made a lot of money for him ask him for a deal I think it was maybe I $100,000 meaning it's like a day pay nothing n you know I'm just too busy what too busy to to to tell your assistant to send me $100,000 what too busy n it's just going to mess me up you know it's not all of a sudden this is not even a rounding error it's not even a rounding error for what he has and he's not the one and two and three and every single person that I called I tried to save my house all of a sudden no no no I can't do this I can't do this I can't like yeah but I'll pay you for it you're going to get 100% on your money you give me the money I'll pay you in 2 years when I sell the house 100% profit no it's this it's all of a sudden nobody has nobody has time nobody has patience nobody has this nobody has that nothing all doors closed why that's life it's already in the Torah it's not new there's nothing new Under the Sun but you're only going to find out who your friends are when you really don't have any friends cuz that only time you're ever going to need them is when they tell you who they really are so don't spend so much time thinking that you have these dear relationships cuz in reality most people have relationships based on convenience based on benefits and things of that nature and unfortunately sometimes it's even worse Sometimes some people that don't have they act like some of these older friends that I had they used to work for me we were best friends they came to me with nothing all of a sudden they have something came started making some decent money all of a sudden they became wolves know why wolves why am I saying wolves because wolves have a nature in them them that if one of the Wolves it's a wolf pack you know wolves don't go alone they have a bunch of friends yeah but as soon as one of them gets weak what happens where they go bring him a uh some help some doctors they bring him as a fruit tree bring him a drink no what do they do they eat him yeah you're too weak for us you're too weak for the pack they eat the wolf sometimes people act like wolves sometimes the wolves are actually better than the people cuz at least they wait until he's really weak that's what happens this is reality who do you invest in invest in your n invest in your family invest in your own home everyone else yeah if it happens it happens it doesn't happen happen don't be like this 20-year-old kid that thinks he had 100 friends you don't have 100 friends [Music]
