Excuse me, ladies, who's the millionaire here? It's her. You're the millionaire? Yeah, why? I'm actually part of the Hard Knocks team. Oh wait, I recognize you. You do? I'm a part of the Hard Knocks team. What do you do? I'm a business owner in the Philippines. Do you mind if I talk to you for 60 seconds about your business? Of course. What business do you own? I own Hiraya in the Philippines. So our core product line right now is all about nipple pasties and silicone bras. This started when I was 15 years old. You were 15 when you started this? Yeah. How old were you when you made your first million? When I was 20 or 21. What have you learned about money since you had it so young? That honestly, money is just a tool in order for you to get to where you want to be. And you need to define what success means to you early on, even before you have the money, because it's so easy to be swayed with the different versions of success in society. What type of challenges did you face building a business so young? Oh, definitely limited resources. I started the business with less than $500, and I loaned it from my parents when I was 15. What did they say when you said you want to start a business like that at 15? They think I'm crazy, but when I did YouTube, they just supported me. Did you ever have any mentors then? I think it's really my dad at the start, but then now I have different mentors. I have mentors for my personal brand, for growing the business. I think mentors are super important. What's the best advice your dad has given you about life? Playo, honestly, you know your business best. Yes, it's important for you to also ask for the opinions of different people, but at the end of the day, that decision is yours and yours to make, and it should be your accountability. And you already know the answer. It's already within. You just have to look inward than outward. If you had less than $500 again and you had to start all over, what would you do? I would create content online. I always tell my team that we should be content first. Content is king, attention is the new currency. I love that. Thank you so much.
