INITIATIVE, REALLY GROWN INTO A
LOT MORE.
>> SURE. THANK YOU FOR ASKING

13
00:01:11.271 --> 00:01:20.880

14
00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:27.387
BOYS & GIRLS CLUB IN THE COUNTY,

TO DEMONSTRATE THE IMPORTANCE OF
WASHING HANDS. AT THE TIME THAT

15
00:01:27.387 --> 00:01:36.529
AS THE FOCUS. AFTER THAT
TRAINING WE LEFT AND LET THEM

00:01:36.529 --> 00:01:43.136
FRESHMAN THERE AT I.U. EAST FROM
FORT WAYNE, YOU REALLY TAKE FROM
THE STUDENT SIDE, YOU TOOK A
LEADERSHIP ROLE, OR HAVE TAKEN A

17
00:01:43.136 --> 00:01:48.608
LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THE PROJECT.
TALK ABOUT THE PROJECT AND HOW
YOU REALLY HELPED TO FUEL
GROWTH.

18
00:01:48.608 --> 00:01:55.315
>> YEAH, CORRECT. SO, I TOLD
TIM, YOU KNOW, COMING OUT OF
HIGH SCHOOL, I TOLD HIM GETTING
INTO COLLEGE, I REALLY WANTED TO

19
00:01:55.315 --> 00:02:01.855
WORK WITH HIM ON SOME PROJECTS
THAT WOULD PROVIDE ME LEADERSHIP
OPPORTUNITIES, I FEEL LIKE I'M
GIFTED WITH THAT ABILITY. SO HE

20
00:02:01.855 --> 00:02:08.294
PRESENTED ME WITH THIS IDEA AND
SAID, HEY, YOU KNOW, IT'S A
PERFECT TIME NOW, IT IS JUST
VERY FITTING TO DO A PROJECT

21
00:02:08.294 --> 00:02:17.904
THAT CAN TEACH PEOPLE THE
MPORTANCE OF HAND WASHING, THE
SPREADING OF GERMS, ESPECIALLY
IN THE YOUNGER SCHOOLS. WE

22
00:02:17.904 --> 00:02:23.176
WANTED TO TAKE THIS PROJECT WITH
A DRIVING FORCE WHILE THE TIME
WAS RIGHT AND DECIDED TO BUY
THESE UNITS.

23
00:02:23.176 --> 00:02:31.384
>> TALK ABOUT HOW IT WORKS.
WE'VE SEEN VIDEO ON THE SCREEN,
I KNOW TIM HAS A UNIT AS WELL.
BUT TALK ABOUT HOW IT WORKS, AS

24
00:02:31.384 --> 00:02:38.191
YOU GET INTO THESE SCHOOLS AND
HOW IT REALLY GETS KIDS
UNDERSTANDING THE WHOLE
IMPORTANCE OF HAND WASHING.

25
00:02:38.191 --> 00:02:44.464
>> RIGHT. SO, TIM, IF YOU DON'T
MIND SHOWING ON THE SCREEN. HE
IS GOING TO SHOW ONE OF THE
BILLIONAIRES ITSELF. AS YOU CAN

26
00:02:44.464 --> 00:02:53.606
SEE, THAT IS HOW IT LOOKS
FACE-UP, USUALLY IT WILL BE
SIDEWAYS. SO THE STUDENTS WILL
PUT A LOTION ON THEIR HANDS AND

27
00:02:53.606 --> 00:03:00.680
PUT THAT AROUND INSIDE THE
MACHINE, AND THAT BLUE LIGHT IN
THE BACK THERE, YOU CAN SEE IT
IS ON, WILL SHOW THOSE GERMS ON

28
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:06.986
THEIR HANDS, AND THE STUDENTS
WILL BE ABLE TO LEARN AND SEE
HOW THOSE GERMS ARE SITTING ON
THEIR HANDS EVEN AFTER WASHING

29
00:03:06.986 --> 00:03:13.793
THEIR HANDS PROPERLY, AS THEY
THINK.
>> THIS HAS EXPANDED, THE
PROGRAM HAS EXPANDED THROUGHOUT

30
00:03:13.793 --> 00:03:20.033
THE COUNTY IN THAT AREA.
>> CORRECT. YES. EVERY SCHOOL
NOW IN WAYNE COUNTY, EVERY
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NOW HAS ONE.

31
00:03:20.033 --> 00:03:27.273
>> TIM, THE NEXT PHASE, OF THE
PROGRAM, THE BILLIONAIRE
PROGRAM, GOING TO EXTEND TO HIGH
SCHOOLS IN A DIFFERENT KIND OF

32
00:03:27.273 --> 00:03:32.412
SCENARIO.
>> THAT IS CORRECT. AND SO WHAT
WE HAVE IS FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL
STUDENTS, THEY'RE REALLY GOING

33
00:03:32.412 --> 00:03:40.486
TO UNDER THE ECONOMIC IMPACT,
AND WE'RE GOING TO SHOW THEM HOW
THE GERMS TRULY SPREAD. WE HAVE
AN INVISIBLE POWDER, WE CAN PUT

34
00:03:40.486 --> 00:03:47.493
THAT ON A SIGN-UP SHEET, HAVE
THE STUDENTS COME IN, SIGN UP,
THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT THE
POWDER, IT THEN GETS ON THEIR

35
00:03:47.493 --> 00:03:56.970
HANDS, AND THEY GO ABOUT THEIR
BUSINESS FOR THE NEXT 20, 30
MINUTES, WE TURN OFF THE LIGHTS,
TURN ON A BLACK LIGHT AND SEE

36
00:03:56.970 --> 00:04:07.647
HOW GERMS HAVE SPREAD. WE CAN
SEE THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENED. THE
REASON THAT'S IMPORTANT TO US IS
BECAUSE OF WHY WE CALL IT THE

37
00:04:07.647 --> 00:04:15.655
BILLIONAIRE. I'LL LET CARTER
EXPLAIN THAT, IF I MAY.
>> CALLED THE BILLIONAIRE
BECAUSE IN AMERICA IN A

38
00:04:15.655 --> 00:04:26.399
NON-COVID YEAR, A REGULAR YEAR
WITH NO PANDEMIC, WE SPEND ABOUT
$40 BILLION ON THE COMMON COLD,
ESTIMATES TO $130 PER PERSON. WE

39
00:04:26.399 --> 00:04:34.674
THINK THAT NUMBER -- WE CAN GET
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS CUT DOWN BY
TEACHING THE IMPORTANCE OF HAND
WASHING, AND THOUSAND GERMS

40
00:04:34.674 --> 00:04:40.480
QUICKLY SPREAD.
>> BIG NUMBERS, A BIG BUSINESS
OPPORTUNITY, INDEED. TIM, BEFORE
WE GO, WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE

41
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:49.756
BOSS PROGRAM, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT
IT BEFORE. YOU LAUNCHED THAT IN
2007. BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR
SELF-STARTERS, REALLY ABOUT

42
00:04:49.756 --> 00:04:55.128
GIVING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS THE
ABILITY, OR THE UNDERSTANDING TO
CREATE SOME GREAT BUSINESS
PLANS, RIGHT?

43
00:04:55.128 --> 00:05:02.001
>> THAT IS CORRECT. THEY LEARN
HOW TO RIGHT THE BUSINESS TO
PLAN, SEVERAL HAVE ACTUALLY
OPENED BUSINESSES FROM THAT.

44
00:05:02.001 --> 00:05:09.809
>> YEAH, AND AGAIN, I MENTIONED
THIS EARLIER, BUT THE SUCCESS OF
THE PROGRAM HAS BEEN RECOGNIZED
JUST RECENTLY RECEIVED AN AWARD.

45
00:05:09.809 --> 00:05:17.684
AND HAS EXTENDED FAR BEYOND
INDIANA TO A NUMBER OF PLACES
AROUND THE GLOBE.
>> YEAH, SEVERAL COUNTRIES NOW.

46
00:05:17.684 --> 00:05:29.028
WE'VE HAD IT IN SEVERAL OF THE
STATES. I'M REALLY PROUD OF THE
FACT THAT THE KELLY SCHOOL HAS
GOT IT IN ALL THE SCHOOLS IN THE

47
00:05:29.028 --> 00:05:34.734
YEAR 2021.
>> FINAL WORD TO YOU, TIM, THE
BILLIONAIRE PROGRAM, THE BOSS
PROGRAM, YOU PUT A LOT OF EFFORT

48
00:05:34.734 --> 00:05:42.608
IN REALLY CONNECTING STUDENTS TO
REAL WORLD OPPORTUNITIES, DO YOU
SENSE THAT'S BEEN PAYING OFF
OVER THE YEARS?

49
00:05:42.608 --> 00:05:49.382
>> ABSOLUTELY. IT WAS THE
ULTIMATE INVESTMENT FOR ME,
THAT'S WHAT I DO EVERY DAY, LONG
DAYS, IS WORK WITH STUDENTS AND

50
00:05:49.382 --> 00:05:57.990
TRY TO JUST TEACH AND DEVELOP.
THEY LEARN, THEY TEACH AND
DEVELOP ME AS WELL. SO IT'S BEEN
A GREAT, GREAT PARTNERSHIP.

51
00:05:57.990 --> 00:06:06.132
>> ALL RIGHT. TIM SCALES
PROFESSOR, THE BILLIONAIRE
PROJECT, AND CARLER COOK, A
FRESHMAN THERE. CARTER, I KNOW

52
00:06:06.132 --> 00:06:11.104
