- It's 90 days later, and I'm back
in Hollywood, California, on my way to see Aaron Carter.
Aaron asked me to meet him at the world-famous Troubadour.
I'm on my way to see how he's done.
- Whoo! ♪ Girl you remind me of
♪
- How you doing? How's everything going?
- Good. How are you? - Good.
- Well, we're putting together an amazing show.
- All right, man. - I'm excited.
- All right, so I'm gonna start out with the big question.
Who's managing the business of Aaron Carter now?
- Yours truly. There's no manager.
When you left, I had to start putting together shows.
- I'm proud of you, man.
Has Angel been serving on your board of directors?
- One million percent
been serving on the board of directors.
- So tell me about Nick. - Absolutely. Yes, he is.
- So you got him on? - Yeah.
I had breakfast with Nick, me and my family--look.
I can show you a little picture of my twin sister
and my brother and me.
- There you go. There you go.
Tell me about the expenses.
- My old monthly expenses
were at $34,303.
My new monthly expenses
are $26,485.
So decreased expenses $7,818.
- Dude, that's nice. Where did that number come from?
- Trying to be frugal. Not spending as much on dinners.
Not going out as much. Things like,
I would do advancements for my show.
I would say, why are you making me pay for three security guards
when I haven't even met one?
- Nice. Now talk to me about income.
What was your old income?
- Okay, so the-- - And what is your new income?
- The old monthly income: $34,094.
New income: $34,094.
The same thing. But the reason why
is 'cause there was a limit to the amount of shows
that I've been doing in the last 90 days.
It's not a tour.
But there is a world tour
going from January, February, March, April, May.
I'm already guaranteed to make $350,000.
- Wow. - Three months.
- Your sales have not increased,
but your profit margin really is what's increasing
because now you're bringing home more money.
- Exactly. - Love it.
That's--congratulations. That's big. That's huge.
Your magic number is $49,303,
and you were able to cut costs
by $7,818,
which means that you're really only $7,391 away,
and you'll be hitting that in two months with the tour.
- There's some pretty good stuff happening. I mean...
- Okay. Okay. You got some good numbers coming.
Talk to me about your debt.
90 days ago, you were $227,000 in debt.
- Yes. - Where are we at today?
- In debt? - In debt.
- $157,000.
- $157,000?
- I negotiated my debt down $70,000
with no one holding my hand.
- You know what I'm seeing?
I'm seeing the artist and the businessman come together.
You should be proud of yourself. Man, I'm proud of you.
Thank you, man. Have a great show.
- All right. - All right. Take care.
- All right, buddy. - All right. We'll see you.
- See you!
