Well done Ahmad Mahmood (YouTube)
Yes, I have bad experience in fights. My teeth are not mine. I have implants. They broke my teeth In prison you need this survival. That was in Finland, Thailand, or Israel. In Finland and in Israel both of them my bottom row did broke; in Finland my upper teeth was broken.
To make my story short, um, I was growing up to very Ultra Orthodox (Moroccan Jewish) family, okay, um, which I learn only Bible, yes, only Bible. I only boy school, I didn't learn anything. In the age of 12, I decided these things is not for me and I want to go to the world. They find for me an institution, kind of a juvenile prison — it's not really — do it for kids who living the Orthodox life and it's kind of the last resort. So it was like a place in America, in Brooklyn, New York, which accepting this problematic kids.
First of all, it's financial. They're paying a lot. It's money. I mean, I'm honest with you — I wrote my book. We're going to launch it together with it. One day I decided to write a book, and I said, "Okay, I will try." No one ever told me; I wrote it myself — no ghostwriters, no nothing. I just designed the cover, and I put a cover on the back of another book. I announced on my Instagram that I want to sell, and I did pre-orders. I opened up a website on Shopify and everything — did it like that in less than 24 hours.
I just want to show you the amount. This is why I do the collaboration. This is just part of the amount. This is what I sold — like, within less than — can I read it out again? $13.79 million. Yeah, I'm looking at it — a Shopify million. This is on a book which didn’t even exist then, just pre-orders which I got.
So I said, "Okay, if it's that big, I better collaborate." It's Netflix. Of course, they're not going to present me as the holy person — and it's okay. I'm fine with it.
