00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.939
Matthew Washington: Hey,
everyone, Matt Washington,

2
00:00:02.002 --> 00:00:05.818
Pierce Capital, hope everyone
had a Merry Christmas. Hope the

3
00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:09.572
holiday season is going great.
We got one more holiday left

4
00:00:09.634 --> 00:00:13.263
until 2021 comes. You know, I
think the thing I got out of

5
00:00:13.326 --> 00:00:16.829
2020 is that a lot of people
want it to end. But there's

6
00:00:16.892 --> 00:00:20.645
things that I learned during
2020. There's things that I see

7
00:00:20.708 --> 00:00:24.337
differently now, because of
2020, I gained wisdom, because

8
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:28.216
of 2020, a lot of negative stuff
happened in 2020. But if you

9
00:00:28.278 --> 00:00:31.782
really look at it, there's a lot
of positive things that

10
00:00:31.844 --> 00:00:35.598
happened. I think all of us
grew. Somehow, some way, I think

11
00:00:35.661 --> 00:00:39.665
we got closer to people that we
needed to get closer to, I think

12
00:00:39.727 --> 00:00:43.669
we started respecting and loving
our friends, our families, our

13
00:00:43.731 --> 00:00:47.423
loved ones, and just our lives
more. So everyone's excited.

14
00:00:47.485 --> 00:00:51.302
And, you know, everyone keeps
saying I can't wait for 2020 to

15
00:00:51.364 --> 00:00:54.930
end. Well, you know what 2020
really wasn't all that bad.

16
00:00:54.993 --> 00:00:58.684
There was a lot of things that
happened, it's a crazy year,

17
00:00:58.747 --> 00:01:02.563
crazy times we're in. But using
those times, using times like

18
00:01:02.626 --> 00:01:06.567
that, to to better yourself, is
the best thing to do it. I just

19
00:01:06.630 --> 00:01:10.509
want to say thank you to all of
our partners, our brokers, our

20
00:01:10.571 --> 00:01:14.388
strategic relationships, the
people that make Pierce Capital,

21
00:01:14.450 --> 00:01:18.329
I couldn't thank you enough. We
ended up crushing the year for

22
00:01:18.392 --> 00:01:22.333
the circumstance. And we thank
God for that. We're grateful for

23
00:01:22.396 --> 00:01:26.087
that. But we currently pause
closing new relationships till

24
00:01:26.150 --> 00:01:29.778
2021, that's right around the
corner. I'm getting a lot of

25
00:01:29.841 --> 00:01:33.720
people requesting to sign up I'm
sending an email back to them

26
00:01:33.782 --> 00:01:37.661
letting you guys know that the
first of the first of the year,

27
00:01:37.724 --> 00:01:41.290
we're gonna get you signed up
with Pierce Capital. I look

28
00:01:41.352 --> 00:01:45.169
forward to working with all of
you and showing you what we're

29
00:01:45.231 --> 00:01:49.110
made out of. But, you know, I
hope everyone gets something out

30
00:01:49.173 --> 00:01:53.240
of this message. And I just want
to thank all of our partners and

31
00:01:53.302 --> 00:01:57.306
everyone we do business with for
making the best out of 2020. On

32
00:01:57.369 --> 00:02:00.560
to 2021, Matt Washington, Pierce
Capital. God bless
