00:30I stay here in Havana
00:32To the neighborhoods that go to Havana
00:34To the neighborhoods of Havana
00:36Which ones are you going to?
00:38In early October
00:40Yes
00:42Centro Havana
00:44Centro Havana in October and Cerro
00:46You ride a bicycle?
00:48I ride a bicycle
00:50And I want to ask you a question, what are the flower bouquets?
00:52These are worth 100 pesos
00:54Different prices
00:56What are the flowers called and how much do they cost?
00:58The flower bouquets are 50 pesos
01:00And the basil?
01:02The basil is 50
01:04There are two prices, 50 and 100
01:0650 and 100?
01:08And the gladiolus?
01:10The gladiolus are 50 and 100
01:12The flowers, depending on the quality
01:14They vary the price
01:16When they are fresh, they are worth more
01:18Of course, depending on the quality
01:20The less quality the flowers have, the less they are worth
01:22Do the prices vary by day?
01:24Sometimes the prices vary
01:26In the middle of the day, if you sell more flowers
01:28You are losing quality
01:30And you have to keep working
01:32And when it comes to investing
01:34Do you invest half and half?
01:36Sometimes not
01:38Not always half and half
01:40Sometimes what you get is not worth anything
01:42This is like the fisherman who goes fishing
01:44Sometimes he sells it, sometimes not
01:46Even I don't know
01:48So you're not sure
01:50It's like you're going fishing
01:52And you're not sure you're going to fish
01:54I don't have the certainty
01:56That I'm going to sell everything
01:58Sometimes yes, sometimes not
02:00There are days when you have losses
02:02There are days when I have losses
02:04There are days when I don't have losses
02:06But what I do is take out the investment
02:08And I don't earn anything
02:10And there are days when I make the investment
02:12And I earn
02:14And you've been working for 28 years
02:16And how have you suffered
02:18The issue of fines and all those things
02:20Before, when I had a license
02:22I already got rid of that problem
02:24But even so, they keep putting fines
02:26Because any little thing
02:28They want to fine you
02:30If a flower falls on the floor
02:32Any little thing
02:34If a flower falls on the floor
02:36They want to fine you
02:38And the streets are full of garbage
02:40But they don't see that the streets are full of garbage
02:42It's hard then
02:44You have to be scared every time you see the investors
02:46Yes, of course, without fear
02:48You can't be afraid here
02:50You don't stop fighting
02:52No, no, I fall
02:54And I get up
02:56That's the law of life
02:58And with good spirituality
03:00I leave the problems at home
03:02I treat everyone well
03:04With courtesy and with skill
03:06The same old, young, black, white, whatever
03:08Respect
03:10You respect people
03:12I respect people
03:14That's the true love between us humans
03:16What time do you get up?
03:18I get up at 4 or 5 in the morning
03:20I prepare the flowers and when dawn
03:22I take them out
03:24Do you have to go to a field or do you bring them?
03:26I bring them to my house
03:28So you have everything coordinated
03:30I'm in a hurry, see you later
03:32What's your name?
03:34Joel
03:36Send a message to the whole world
03:38I bless the whole world
03:40And that there is more humanity between us humans
03:42Stop being ambitious for money
03:44That's my advice
03:48Thank you for watching
