1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: The Fitzi and Whipper podcast. What about this? Because I'm

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: kind of torn on this, But there was a man

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: and he congratulations. This was last year he won ten

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: million dollars in the lotto.

5
00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: Enough to quit your job.

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, mate, that's enough to live forever. You don't need

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: more than ten million dollars in your life. Right off

8
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 1: and celebrate. What are you after?

9
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 3: Well? Know?

10
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 4: Well these days and now I mean if you if

11
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 4: you buy a house, you buy your dream home, now,

12
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 4: a dream home in Sydney.

13
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,879
Speaker 2: Would what had cost you three or four meal, wouldn't it?

14
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a decent home.

15
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 2: That's a big home.

16
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,280
Speaker 4: Right then you're going to get yourself a car. You

17
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 4: probably look after a few other people in your family.

18
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 4: I reckon that the rest of that would go pretty quickly.

19
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:45,560
Speaker 1: Well, look, if you put it in the right place,

20
00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:47,280
Speaker 1: it could generate a bit of interest and the next

21
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: thing you know, you're just living off for that. I

22
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 1: don't know, mate, you put it wherever you want. I'm

23
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:52,319
Speaker 1: not going to.

24
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: Tell you where you invest. You're a big boy now

25
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: you're forty five.

26
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 1: So anyway, what he did, what he did was decide

27
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: to not say a word to his wife didn't say word,

28
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: sent two million dollars to his sister, saying, you little beauty,

29
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: have this.

30
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's his first mistake, because then someone else knows.

31
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 1: She's his second mistake. Sent seven hundred thousand dollars to

32
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: an ex girlfriend. Loser, loser, What are you doing mate,

33
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: besides feeling guilty about what you did to the poor thing.

34
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,959
Speaker 1: So he didn't mention this lottery win to date, so

35
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,399
Speaker 1: we're coming up to two years. Don't worry about how

36
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,680
Speaker 1: she found out about it. But she then filed for divorce.

37
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: Now I didn't know this, but under what's considered common property,

38
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: because he won that money when they were together, she's

39
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,759
Speaker 1: not only got half of everything they had, she's now

40
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: been able to sue him for the rest of that

41
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 1: money from the lotto win.

42
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 2: That's a good effort.

43
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: Would have been covered under the half.

44
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: I spoke to a friend the other day, girlfriend the

45
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 2: other day an X Yeah no, no, no, no, no,

46
00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 2: not a friend who is emil.

47
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 4: Her ex husband is going for eighty percent of what

48
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 4: of what they own, And I'm going, how do you

49
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 4: can people do that? And she goes, well, I think

50
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 4: what he's trying to do is then bring it back

51
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 4: to fifty. So she said, I'm prepared to go halves

52
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,800
Speaker 4: with him. And I said, instead of paying all these lawyers,

53
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 4: why don't we just get it done now? And he goes, no,

54
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 4: I'm going for eighty.

55
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 2: I'm thinking, God, that's greed.

56
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: I thought the fifty percent was drawn down the middle

57
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: for a.

58
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: Reason, so did I.

59
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:31,959
Speaker 1: He wants eighty.

60
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 2: He wants eighty percent of what they both.

61
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 1: Does he realize it's a law and not something you

62
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: can negotiate, Like if I start height, it can only

63
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: come down.

64
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: This is what he's mean.

65
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: If we meet at seventy, you know I've still one. No,

66
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,360
Speaker 1: that's a law. Fifty split. How long do you have

67
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: to be with your partner? Like you have to be

68
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 1: living together in de fact a relationship you don't have

69
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 1: to be married? Is six months or a year? They

70
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: then you split it?

71
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 2: They say six months, But I mean, I don't I

72
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 2: don't know. Now, I've got the top lawyers. Rob kardash

73
00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: In on its.

74
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,040
Speaker 4: Law, isn't it?

75
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: What do you reckon?

76
00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: You'd do?

77
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: Though?

78
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: Like where is the light there? I mean, if you

79
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: wanted to buy something and you had a dream fits

80
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: Let's say you wanted your ultimate.

81
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: Car, or you wanted to buy a racehorse, or you.

82
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 1: Wanted to have fun. Where's the fine line? Like fifty thousand,

83
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: we called to keep that a bit quiet.

84
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think fifty to fifty wouldn't share the news.

85
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's okay.

86
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: Anything asked is one hundred okay, I mean hundred's pretty

87
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 1: I mean you wouldn't say to the after one.

88
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 4: Hundred, I would say, you've got a few problems in

89
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 4: your relationship if you're keeping fifty thousand dollars secret from

90
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 4: your partner.

91
00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: Ely twenty four ten. If you have decided to do

92
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: this and you went, you know what, I reckon, it's

93
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: safer if it's just kept in my hands. But you'd

94
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: have to tell a mate, that's the thing. Yeah, Like

95
00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: you have to sit down and go mate, we're off

96
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 1: to Vegas. And then all of a sudden the wives

97
00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: start talking, where did this cash come from? How is

98
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: he affording those business class seats the best? Did he

99
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 1: win Nova's first class? And fifty k?

100
00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 4: Still the greatest story is those group of mates who

101
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 4: were all married.

102
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: And they made up a fake friend and that's right.

103
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 4: They kept up this charade for six months and told

104
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 4: all their wives.

105
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 2: You know Dave. We've just met Dave. He's a great guy.

106
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 2: He's now one of the boy He's awesome. And you

107
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: know that. For six months they kept up the charade.

108
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 2: We caught up with Dave. We went and had a

109
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,040
Speaker 2: countermell with him down the pub again, all this kind

110
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,039
Speaker 2: of stuff. The girls, we're going to meet Dave and

111
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 2: his family and the like.

112
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 4: He's flat out with work and stuff like that. And

113
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 4: then Dave, finally, he's finally proposed. You wouldn't believe that

114
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 4: he's bucks parties in Vegas.

115
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,880
Speaker 1: We've never met Dave. Honey, is one of the boys,

116
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,039

Speaker 2: You will love him when you meet him at the wedding.

118
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 2: You will love him. How good is that? Where are you?

120
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,240
