1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand at. 2 00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 2: Lou Penrose with you till ten o'clock. Thank you for 3 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 2: tuning in. Good to have you along with us on 4 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:16,040 Speaker 2: a Friday. Times are changing. Single women now are consistently 5 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 2: closing on more homes than single men in the United States. 6 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 3: Single women are stepping up and they're moving in, outpacing 7 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 3: men in the housing market. Data from the National Association 8 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 3: of Realtors shows single women we're nineteen percent, about one 9 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 3: fifth of all home buyers last year. 10 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:39,400 Speaker 2: Wow, twenty that's one in five, one in five homes 11 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: sold nationwide. We're to single women. 12 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,520 Speaker 3: Teen percent, about one fifth of all home buyers last year. 13 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 3: That's compared to just ten percent who are single men. 14 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: Wow, that's dust so double. I find that amazing, I 15 00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: really do. But it stands to rease. Why wouldn't women 16 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 2: want to own a home? Men? I would have thought 17 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 2: would want a home just as like, just as many. 18 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 2: But they they're they're not buying, they're not putting down roots. 19 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 3: That's compared to just ten percent who are single men. 20 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 3: Why do you think women are out performing men in 21 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 3: home ownership? 22 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 4: They're more likely to be caregivers, they're more likely to 23 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 4: be perhaps a single mom, have a multi generational home 24 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 4: with an elderly relative in it, and so they want 25 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 4: a stable residence and to know exactly what their payment 26 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 4: is going to be. 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 3: Jessica allows of the National Association of Realtors. 28 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 2: Yeah so, Jessica Allowance, National Association Realtors. She says, this 29 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: is not uncommon that women are caregivers. They need to 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: know exactly what their payment is going to be, and 31 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: they're more likely to be caring for their mother or 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: I like how she says that women are more likely 33 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 2: to be single moms. It's kind of hard for a 34 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 2: dad to be a single mom, Like only a woman 35 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: can be a single mom. Not all women are single moms. 36 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: But you can't be a single mom if you're not 37 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: a woman. So I'm not sure I follow that. But nevertheless, 38 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: this is a real cultural shift, no question about it. 39 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: It'd been moving in this direction, but now that double 40 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: the amount of homes are owned by single women than 41 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 2: single men just creates a whole new paradigm. 42 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 3: Why do you think women are all performing men in 43 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:28,959 Speaker 3: home ownership. 44 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 4: They're more likely to be caregivers, They're more likely to 45 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,799 Speaker 4: be perhaps a single mom, have a multi generational home 46 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 4: with an elderly relative in it. 47 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:42,799 Speaker 2: Multi generational home? Does that mean what? I guess that's 48 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 2: a fancy way of saying, you and your mom live 49 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: together and you have a child. 50 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 3: The National Association of Realtors says their data shows single 51 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 3: women are more likely than men to make financial sacrifices. 52 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 2: I have not seen any evidence of that. I'm not 53 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: sure about that one. Uh, I'm calling bull on that one. 54 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 3: The National Association of Realtors says their data shows single 55 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 3: women are more likely than men to make financial sacrifices 56 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 3: like cutting back on non essential spending or taking on 57 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 3: a second job in order to afford a home. 58 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 4: We also know that women are saying it doesn't matter. 59 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 4: I don't necessarily have to have a ring to actually 60 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 4: have this house that I want. 61 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: Oh, jessicallounce with the National Association of Realtors. There she 62 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 2: goes right to the whole feminist thing. I don't need 63 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: a ring on that finger. I want to have this house, 64 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: all right. Well, look good for you. I'm a big 65 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 2: fan of real estate. You want to get in it 66 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 2: and ride that appreciation up. Housing prices are leveling off 67 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: in southern California. But they're not going down and they're 68 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 2: not moving that ocean. So if you can get into 69 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: a house, get into a house and ride it up 70 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 2: like everybody else is doing. But I think single women 71 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: are different than single men with respect to the rules. 72 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 2: So let me give some rules out for single women. Now, again, 73 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: this is only for single women who own the house, 74 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 2: own the townhouse, own the condo, own the real estate. 75 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 2: These rules don't apply to men. And people are gonna say, well, 76 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: lou you're being sexist. Yes, I am actively discriminating based 77 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:28,119 Speaker 2: on sex with these rules. So if you are only 78 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 2: if you are a single woman and you closed and 79 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 2: now you're making a house payment instead of a rent payment, congratulations, 80 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: But you need to follow these rules. Number one, do 81 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: not let the boyfriend move in. I know you want 82 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: to let the boyfriend move in. You're gonna let the 83 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: boyfriend move in. I'm gonna lose this argument, but I'm 84 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 2: gonna say it anyway for everybody else. Do not let 85 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 2: the boyfriend move in. Under no circumstance. Do you let 86 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 2: the boyfriend move in. I know it's more convenient, you 87 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: spend so much time together. Anyway, he can go home 88 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 2: if he's not gonna be your boyfriend because you won't 89 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: let him move in, then he can't be your boyfriend. 90 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 2: Do not let the boyfriend move in, having said that, 91 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: because you're not gonna listen to me, because I know 92 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: you girls. Having said that, when you let him move in, 93 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: do not give him a key. Do not give him 94 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: a key. Under no circumstances do you give him a key. Now, 95 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 2: it's it's nighttime in southern California and we're on KFI, 96 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 2: so there are people listening in Arizona, Nevada, Utah. This 97 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 2: really applies to California. California law is a little bit different. 98 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 2: Do not give him a key. He does not need 99 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,919 Speaker 2: to have a key. Why does he need to be 100 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 2: there when you're not there. He's just your boyfriend, even 101 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 2: if he becomes your yance. You don't want to give 102 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,480 Speaker 2: my key. Do not give him a key. That's number one. 103 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 2: Rule Number two. Do not let him forward mail to 104 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 2: your address. Do not let him forward his bills, his magazines, 105 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 2: his statements to your address. That is a no no. 106 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,560 Speaker 2: Let it go to wherever it's going. Now, let it 107 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 2: go to his mother's house. Let him get a po box. 108 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 2: Do not let him forward your mail. If you start 109 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 2: seeing mail showing up in your mailbox with his name 110 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 2: on it, you write RTS that's returned to sender, sender, 111 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: and you put it right back in the mailbox. Do 112 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 2: not accept forwarded mail from your boyfriend to your house. 113 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 2: That's a no no. And rule number three and this 114 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: is a biggie. This is a biggie. I know what 115 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 2: you're going to do. I know how this works. I 116 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 2: see it happen with my sister in laws. I saw 117 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 2: it happen with my nieces, and I advised against it, 118 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,480 Speaker 2: but they don't listen to me. I know how you're 119 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 2: You're gonna be like, well, Lou, it's great. We have 120 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 2: a great arrangement. 121 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 5: Uh. 122 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: You know, he'll he pays for the food and I 123 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 2: pay for the utilities. So it's like rent, right, he's paying. 124 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 2: He's got skin in the game because he pays for 125 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 2: the food or I pay for the food and he 126 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 2: pays for the utility. Right. But we share our expenses 127 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 2: and it's just working out for us because it's very 128 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 2: expensive to live in southern California. Yeah, don't do that. 129 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: Under no circumstances are you allowed to allow him to 130 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: pay a utility bill at all, not even one time. 131 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 2: If he wants to hand you cash, take the cash. 132 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 2: Do not let him write a check to Southern California Edison. 133 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 2: Do not let him pay a utility bill on your house, 134 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 2: not even one time. And if he wants to repair something, 135 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 2: do not let him make a capital improvement. I don't 136 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: care if he's handy, I don't care if he's in 137 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: the home improvement business. Do not let your boyfriend make 138 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 2: a major improvement to your house. But he's so good 139 00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 2: and he's got the tools, and it will save me money. No, 140 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 2: do not let him make a capital improvement to your house. 141 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 2: If he wants to change the light bulb, let him 142 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: change the light bulb. But that's it. Trust me when 143 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:21,080 Speaker 2: I tell you I'm saving you a whole world of headaches. 144 00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: You're a homeowner now, you got to be very careful. 145 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 2: So there are the Loup Penrose rules for single women 146 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 2: in real estate. 147 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand. 148 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 2: Going over the story of more single women now significantly 149 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 2: more single women purchasing a home. Twenty one five of 150 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: all home sales now in the United States by single women, 151 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 2: according to the National Association of Realtors, more single moms, 152 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 2: more multi generational homes, which I think means that mom 153 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:07,479 Speaker 2: lives with the daughter longer life spans, women live longer. Uh. 154 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: And they say, men are, you know, not as frugal, 155 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,599 Speaker 2: so they can't save that one. I will challenge the 156 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: National Association of Realtors has data that suggests that women 157 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 2: are just better at putting off expenses than men, But 158 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: I'm not real sure. 159 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 3: The National Association of Realtors says their data shows single 160 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 3: women are more likely than men to make financial sacrifices 161 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,640 Speaker 3: like cutting back on non essential spending or taking on 162 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 3: a second job in order to afford a home. 163 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 2: Well, wait a minute. Single men are also responsible to 164 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: pay for the date, so the single men are all 165 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 2: I mean they what That doesn't seem even right? The 166 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,760 Speaker 2: single men taking out the single women have to foot 167 00:09:55,800 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 2: the bill after the dinner's over or pay for the movie, 168 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 2: So that seems out of balance. 169 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 3: Cutting back on non essential spending or taking on a 170 00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 3: second job in order to afford a home. 171 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 4: We also know that women are saying it doesn't matter. 172 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 4: I don't necessarily have to have a ring to actually 173 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 4: have this house. 174 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 2: That I want, so I'm not down for that. Like 175 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: I think a lot of women that are buying homes 176 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,240 Speaker 2: are also, they're not eschewing marriage altogether. I think they 177 00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: still probably want to be married. There is such a 178 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 2: pendulum swing. Earlier this year, I don't know if you 179 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: recall this, there was something called the four B movement. 180 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: A lot of women were very unhappy with the outcome 181 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 2: of the election, and the only voting block that Kamala 182 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 2: Harris won were women. I mean, she really outperformed Biden 183 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 2: with women. Now she is a woman, but that in 184 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: and of itself is not enough. There are a lot 185 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 2: of women candidates that don't get the women vote, but 186 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 2: she and she did not just the women vote. She 187 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: outperformed So she did really really well with women women 188 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 2: like Kamala, but she lost, and so they were really unhappy, 189 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: particularly women under the age of forty. And there was 190 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 2: this social media movement called four B, which is derived 191 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 2: from a Korean for the B in Korean is what 192 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 2: the B stands for. But essentially it was women protesting saying, look, 193 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:39,080 Speaker 2: men in this country elected President Trump, not women, So 194 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 2: we are going to go on strike. No sex with men, 195 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: no dating men, no marrying men. And no having children 196 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 2: with men. That was the four B movement, remember this, 197 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: and it was like announced in January, and I remember 198 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 2: thinking to myself, this will last until Valentine's Day. Women 199 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 2: can go a while without having women cannot go minutes 200 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 2: without getting attention, so they can stand not having sex 201 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 2: with men, but they cannot stand not getting attention from men. 202 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 2: So it's gonna last till Valentine's Day. And I was 203 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 2: pretty much right. It collapsed and now the other side 204 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 2: has happened. Women are unhappy with their dates. There's a 205 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,839 Speaker 2: viral video going around of a young lady and she's 206 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:36,959 Speaker 2: just very unhappy that she was asked to pay for Effectively, 207 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 2: she was asked out on a date and then the 208 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 2: date turned Dutch mid date, which is not the first 209 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: time I've heard this happen. Now, this is different from 210 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: Andy Reestmeyer's issue. Remember Andy had a tremendous problem. He 211 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 2: took a girl out on a date. The check came 212 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 2: and before he was able to pay for the date, 213 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:05,080 Speaker 2: the date asked for a second entrede go. That's a first. 214 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 2: I had not heard that one before, but I do 215 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 2: know people that have been on a date and mid date. 216 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:16,920 Speaker 2: The vibe changes. And then when the bill comes, the 217 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 2: guy asked for separate checks. And that's what happened to 218 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 2: this girl one. 219 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: Of a date. 220 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 6: And it's like it was good. I don't know, the 221 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 6: bill came, the bill didn't come. He asked for the 222 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 6: bill and he said two bills, and then so they 223 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 6: came and I was like, well, so we did that. 224 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 6: I paid and it's fine. 225 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can tell that it's not fine. You are 226 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 2: not fine with that. So the guy calls it the 227 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 2: waiter check please, and then he said, and it'll be 228 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: two checks. That's harsh. 229 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 6: If someone says I want to take you out, then 230 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 6: I want to be taken out, which means to me 231 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 6: to pay. 232 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, you're right, you're right. Don't be upset. It's 233 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 2: it's not okay that somebody asks you out on a date. 234 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: I'm old school. A date is a date. One of 235 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:08,079 Speaker 2: the biggest problems I think for young men and women 236 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 2: in today's culture is they don't know how to date. 237 00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,480 Speaker 2: I have this argument all the time with my nieces. 238 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 2: My brother has five kids, and his youngest is she's 239 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 2: a young lady in her twenties, and she came to 240 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:28,160 Speaker 2: live with me during COVID. She was working at what 241 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 2: is that blowout store in Beverly in Beverly Hills. I 242 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 2: can't remember the dry bar, that's it, thank you, Nikkeis. 243 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 2: She worked at the drive bar right there, and you remember, 244 00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 2: the drive bar was the last industry to come back. 245 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 2: You could as COVID slowly left us and businesses started 246 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 2: to open, you could start doing things, and then you 247 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 2: can only get a hair cut, but you couldn't get 248 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 2: your hair dried. So dry bar is the last because 249 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 2: all they do is blow dry, and that was no 250 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 2: good because you blow the hair dryers, we're gonna blow 251 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 2: COVID into your face and you were gonna die. So 252 00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 2: she was like on unemployment for the longest. I don't 253 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 2: know of any other industry that stayed unemployed as long 254 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: as the dry bar people. So she was living on 255 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 2: like ppo money and unemployment and living at my house. 256 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: And we spend a lot of time together talking and 257 00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 2: I realized that she has absolutely no idea how to 258 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 2: date whatsoever. Like they just they don't understand what a 259 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 2: date is. So when somebody says, hey, it was really 260 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 2: nice meeting you, would you like to go out? That's 261 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 2: a date? Like would you like to have dinner, that's 262 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 2: a date. You want to go for a walk, that's 263 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: a date. You want to go down to the beach 264 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 2: on Saturday, and I that's a date. These are dates, 265 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 2: and a date is a specific and a date has 266 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: a beginning, middle, and an end. And when it's whether 267 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 2: it's over coffee, whether it's over a meal, whether it's 268 00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: at a movie, whether it's looking at a sun. It 269 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 2: has a beginning, middle, and end. And people are asking 270 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: for your time and attention, usually a guy, but it 271 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 2: doesn't have to be a guy. I mean a girl 272 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: can take a girl out on a date, but the 273 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 2: expectation is you are if it's a meal, paying for 274 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 2: the time and attention, and in exchange, the one asked 275 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 2: on a date needs to offer time and attention. So 276 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 2: don't feel bad about it. You were right. 277 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 6: If someone says I want to take you out, then 278 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 6: I want to be taken out, which means to me 279 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 6: to pay it whatever. 280 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 2: But this is where she made a mistake. 281 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,160 Speaker 6: And then I texted him after and I'm like, I 282 00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 6: had a nice time to thanks, and then he read 283 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 6: it and didn't respond, and it's. 284 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 2: Do not text him. Don't say I had a nice 285 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 2: time thing. You didn't have a nice time. You're telling 286 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 2: us that your heart was crushed because in the middle 287 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,440 Speaker 2: of the date he changed the terms and conditions and 288 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,479 Speaker 2: asked for separate checks. Here's what you do. You say, 289 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 2: you don't say a word, You get out your credit card, 290 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 2: you put it on that little dish, you pay that 291 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 2: your half. You don't say thank you and good night, 292 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,120 Speaker 2: You say good night, and then you never ever, ever, ever, 293 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 2: ever call this bastard again. So don't be feeling bad. 294 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 2: You made the right call. 295 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,120 Speaker 6: I had a nice time to thanks, and then he. 296 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 2: Read don't say you had a nice time. Don't say 297 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 2: you didn't have a nice time. 298 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:24,399 Speaker 6: I had a nice time to thanks, and then he 299 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 6: read it and didn't respond. And it's like, okay, I 300 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 6: don't know, Like I'm just tired of. 301 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: But like I just like one of gentlemen. 302 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand. So don't tell jerks that you had 303 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 2: a nice time, and uh, don't ever see him again. 304 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 2: That's the lou Penrose rule. 305 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand. 306 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 2: Happy Friday talking about this story that one in five 307 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 2: twenty percent now of single women are the ones buying 308 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: homes it's a trend that has been it's been going 309 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 2: in this direction for a while, outpacing men. One in 310 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 2: ten single men own their own home. So double so 311 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 2: since single women now are going to be the homeowners 312 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 2: and the landlords and in charge of the real estate, 313 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,239 Speaker 2: and they're the ones that are going to benefit from 314 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: the equity and all the good things that come from 315 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 2: home ownership, we're laying down some rules, the lou Penrose 316 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 2: rules for single women. 317 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 5: Another important reason to not let that boyfriend move into 318 00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,199 Speaker 5: your home and establish it as his residency. When you 319 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 5: break up, you will have to evict him if he 320 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 5: does not want to go. And that is not a 321 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 5: pretty thing in California. 322 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 2: Oh you better believe it. So there, I mean, the 323 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 2: reasons to not let the boyfriend move in are endless. 324 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,439 Speaker 2: So I don't I don't stop there because I know 325 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 2: and you know that we are going to lose that argument. 326 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 2: They're going to let the boyfriend move in no matter 327 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 2: how much I tell you not to. So since you 328 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 2: are going to let the boyfriend move in even though 329 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,920 Speaker 2: I am telling you not to, then just follow these 330 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: sub rules under the Loup Penrose rule. Do not give 331 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: him a key, Do not let him forward mail to 332 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: your address. If he does it without you knowing it, 333 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 2: you write return to sender, or just write the letters 334 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 2: R T. S. I used to work for the federal government. 335 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 2: I know a lot of postal employees. I know how 336 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 2: this all works. Just write art. You don't have to 337 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: put a stamp on it. Just you know nobody. There's 338 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:43,359 Speaker 2: nobody here at that address. Return to sender. Do not 339 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 2: accept that mail, and do not let him pay a 340 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: utility bill, and do not let him make any capital 341 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: improvements on the property at all. Trust me when I 342 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 2: tell you I'm saving you a whole lot of headaches. 343 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,960 Speaker 7: They cut back on expenses by getting stupid then to 344 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 7: pay for their dinners. 345 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: You don't sound like a good date. No, that's not true. Look, 346 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 2: this system works. When you want to ask a woman 347 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 2: out for a date, you're doing so to not feed them. 348 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 2: Women can feed themselves right the date. Whether it's over dinner, 349 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,479 Speaker 2: it's traditionally over dinner, it doesn't have to be. Just 350 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 2: seems like a nice way to have an evening is 351 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 2: to get to know them better. Right, So, you are offering. 352 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 2: If you are offering to take somebody out, you are paying. 353 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 2: That's what you do. There is no Dutch dating. There's 354 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 2: no it's not necessary. We could all eat ourselves, then 355 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: let's go eat separately. I mean, that's absurd. That's not 356 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,199 Speaker 2: a date. Then if you're eating dutch, that's just two 357 00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 2: people sitting at the same table, right you could. You could. 358 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,479 Speaker 2: That's like you could be strangers out of Starbucks at 359 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 2: the same table. It's effectively the same thing. So no, 360 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:13,359 Speaker 2: a date requires you to underwrite the evening and an exchange. 361 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 2: You're getting the attention of the person whom you like 362 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: to know better. That's what you're doing. That's what a 363 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 2: date is, and it's it's lost upon so many women. 364 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 2: I don't know that guys think that deeply about it, 365 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 2: but women need to understand the rules, and too many 366 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 2: of them don't like they see people. I don't even 367 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: know what that means, and then they like somebody, and 368 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 2: then they're with that person in a quote relationship. And 369 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 2: I would have this argument with my niece all the time. 370 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,399 Speaker 2: Relationship is a useless word for a single woman. It 371 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 2: means like everything is a relationship and nothing is a relationship. Right, 372 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 2: You're not in a relationship with a guy romantically, There 373 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 2: is no such animal. For a single woman, there are 374 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 2: only three things in life. There are acquaintances, there are fiances, 375 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 2: and there are husbands. There's nothing else, nothing else. There 376 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 2: are no boyfriends after twenty one, and you're not like 377 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 2: a relationship. I have a relationship with my maleman. I 378 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 2: have a relationship with my wife. I have a relationship 379 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 2: with the person that cuts the lawn at the high 380 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 2: school where my kids go to school. I have a 381 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 2: relationship with the produce manager at Robertson's. I mean, everything 382 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 2: is a relationship and nothing is a relationship. So don't 383 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 2: don't don't don't like dignify that if you're a single woman. 384 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,959 Speaker 2: So yes, if it's a date, it's a date. And 385 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 2: by the way, the date has a beginning, middle, and end. 386 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: So you start the date, you are on the date, 387 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,720 Speaker 2: and then the date is over and that's it. There 388 00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: may or may not be another date, and that's that's fine. 389 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 2: So pro tip for single women. You want to be 390 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 2: in demand, and the way to be in demand is 391 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 2: to communicate that many people are interested in your attention. 392 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 2: So here's how this works. When somebody says, hey, it 393 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 2: was really great meeting you, and however, you got to 394 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: meet I mean you could meet you know, just complete 395 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 2: blind at a bar somewhere, at a party, or you're 396 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 2: a friend of a friend. However, it came to pass 397 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: that you and this other person were chatting, and this 398 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 2: other person proposes another opportunity to continue the conversation or 399 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 2: continue getting to know you. Right, and they say, this 400 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 2: is great. What are you doing Friday? Let's get together again, 401 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: Let's get something to eat or go do something. Here 402 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 2: is your reply. Now write this down. Very important to 403 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: say it exactly the way I tell you. It cannot 404 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,400 Speaker 2: be improved upon. When someone says that it was great, 405 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 2: let's do this again. What are you doing Friday? You say, 406 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 2: I can't go out Friday. I have a date. I am, however, 407 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 2: available Saturday. Say write that down. Say it exactly like that. 408 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: Now the guy, because it's twenty twenty six and people 409 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: have no idea what dating is and don't know how 410 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:38,199 Speaker 2: to date, he'll be stunned at first, but he'll just 411 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: move forward. He'll need time to process what you just said, 412 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 2: and then he'll probably say, all right, well the Saturday 413 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 2: is good. And then you'll go home and think about it, 414 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 2: and what you have done has made yourself far more 415 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 2: attractive than any haircut, any hairstyle, any eye liner, anything 416 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: that they sell alta because he now knows that other suitors, 417 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 2: that's the word suitors. Other suitors are vying for your 418 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:19,359 Speaker 2: attention and guys are wired to compete. And by the way, 419 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 2: it same goes for Sunday. I can't go on Saturday. 420 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 2: I have a date. I am, however, available for Sunday brunch. 421 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 2: I'm telling you works like a charm. 422 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: You're listening to KFI AM six forty on demand. 423 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 2: So cal State has a program with high schools which 424 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,880 Speaker 2: is working out. They did a pilot program with cal 425 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 2: State Riverside. Is that where you went? You went to 426 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 2: University of Riverside or a cal State? You yeah, you 427 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 2: see Riverside? You se Riverside? 428 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 5: Yeah? 429 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,479 Speaker 2: Yeah. There isn't a cal State and the Riverside No 430 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,359 Speaker 2: cal State San Berdino, that's a yeah cal State. 431 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 7: And you see these are two separate things, two separate things, 432 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:03,520 Speaker 7: two separate yeah systems. 433 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: This is only for cal State, but they put a 434 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 2: program together that if you're in high school and you 435 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,159 Speaker 2: want to go to cal State, you automatically get to go. 436 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 2: You don't even have to apply. 437 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 8: Sixteen cal State universities have joined an expanding program allowing 438 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 8: direct admission to high school graduates with a minimum GPA 439 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,439 Speaker 8: of two point five. Apply and you're in. Students can 440 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 8: attend the sixteen schools, including cal State San Marcos San Bernardino, LA. 441 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 8: A win win for kids in colleges. 442 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, who's having a hard time getting into cal State 443 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 2: San Marcos? I mean, come on, but that's pretty good. 444 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 2: All you have to do is apply and you're in. 445 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,320 Speaker 2: I said, you know, you don't have to apply. I mean, 446 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 2: you don't have to worry about getting in, you just go. 447 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 2: So that's that's a new program. That's pretty good. How 448 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:57,719 Speaker 2: many universities did you apply to? Do you remember? 449 00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:58,200 Speaker 5: Oh? Me? 450 00:26:58,480 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: Oh me? 451 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I think I applied to I think it 452 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 7: was five of the UC systems. 453 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, right, me too, I applied to five. Everybody I 454 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:14,240 Speaker 2: know applied to fine. Yep. My oldest son is a 455 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:19,359 Speaker 2: junior and they want them to apply to no less 456 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 2: than eight but up to fifteen. And my wife and 457 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,920 Speaker 2: I are scratching our head. Fifteen. That's insane. I don't 458 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: even know why it's no less than eight. I thought 459 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: five was the number you have a reach school. One 460 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,679 Speaker 2: that you'd all the school. All the schools in my 461 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 2: five were schools that I could see myself in. You have, 462 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 2: like the one that is the reach, the one that's 463 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:49,240 Speaker 2: the safety, that would be cal State Saint Marcos, and 464 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 2: then three other schools that you could see yourself going 465 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: to school at that you had a reasonable, reasonably good 466 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,399 Speaker 2: chance of getting in. And you know right, I mean 467 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: it's pretty easy to find the parameters your SAT scores, 468 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: your Act scores, your GPA, and that's about it. 469 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,280 Speaker 7: But five and those fees aren't cheap either. I mean, 470 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 7: like it's expensive. It adds up real quick. 471 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 2: Applications are in the hundreds fifteen applications is what they're recommending. 472 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 2: And the school that my son goes to, I guess 473 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 2: they subcontract out to a professional you know, placement company 474 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,199 Speaker 2: or whatever. Like it's not just in house you know, 475 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 2: college guidance. They there are people that contract with schools 476 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 2: that know what the universities are looking for this year 477 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 2: as opposed to last year, and they track all this 478 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 2: and there's data and metrics. And my wife is like, look, Lou, 479 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 2: you know these people do this all day, every day. Right, 480 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 2: They're not telling you how to do a radio show. 481 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 2: Why are you telling them how to go at college? 482 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 2: So if they're saying that you should explore certainly eight, 483 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 2: but up to fifteen universities and applied to them, we 484 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 2: should probably find out before we scoff, because that's what 485 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 2: I did. I'm like, that's absurd. I mean, that's so stupid, 486 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 2: and said before we scoff, let's at least hear them 487 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,640 Speaker 2: out on the rationale. I can't wait to hear this. 488 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,680 Speaker 2: I have no idea why that's necessary. I don't even 489 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 2: know that we could visit fifteen campuses between now and 490 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: the time he graduates. And he doesn't even know. He 491 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 2: hasn't even made his list of five schools yet. So 492 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 2: we're going about this different ways. My wife is very 493 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: academically oriented. I am not. I don't put a lot 494 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 2: of stock in like academic like. I am opposed to 495 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 2: ap classes. I'm opposed to patting the resume for college. 496 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 2: High school is not college prep. High school high school 497 00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 2: and college is advanced, right, it's university. You don't necessarily 498 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 2: have to go to college. If you choose to go 499 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 2: to college, you can go to college. But there's no 500 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 2: correlation between where you went to college and your success 501 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 2: in life. Zero people think there is Oh, this will 502 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 2: help you get into a good school. There are no 503 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: good schools or bad schools. Not as far as the 504 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:30,000 Speaker 2: seventy eight percent of the CEOs of the Fortune five 505 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 2: hundred companies did not go to private school. They all 506 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 2: went to a state school. There's zero correlation. So enjoy 507 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 2: the sweatshirt. But there's no there's no guarantee that you're 508 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 2: gonna have success. So knowing that you can go to 509 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 2: any college you want. I mean, you may like the university, 510 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,959 Speaker 2: like the campus, like the program of the college that 511 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 2: it has a big name, but it doesn't guarantee you anything. 512 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: And so I'm trying to coach them that way. My 513 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 2: wife wants to use every tool in the toolbox to, 514 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 2: you know, give them the best chance of getting the 515 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 2: best shot of getting the best life. And I'm saying, well, 516 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 2: you're gonna be there for four years. Do you like 517 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 2: the cold? Do you like the hot? Do you like 518 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 2: it swampy? Do you like it dry? You like big city? 519 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 2: Do you like up in the hills right? Do you 520 00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 2: want to overlook the Pacific Ocean? You go to Pepperdine. 521 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,640 Speaker 2: You want to live in the middle of the city, 522 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 2: you go to NYU, you want to go you know, 523 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 2: way out. Then you go you know, way out somewhere 524 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 2: like like, start with where you want to spend the 525 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 2: next four years of your life, because that matters. If 526 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 2: you're not happy, you're not going to perform. And there's 527 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 2: got to be a climate that works for you. So 528 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 2: start with that, and then start with does it offer 529 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 2: what you want to learn? And then go to you know, 530 00:31:53,520 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 2: you know, go down your list, but make a list 531 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 2: of what's important to you and uh and I think 532 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 2: five is a good number. But like I said, they're 533 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 2: they're looking for eight to fifteen. I just think that's cray. 534 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: Did you get into all five? How did it work out? 535 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,080 Speaker 2: How did you wind up UC Rivers? Well? 536 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 7: Part well, part of it was it was close enough 537 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 7: to home, but far enough away that I you know, 538 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 7: had some distance from my from my parents, which was nice. 539 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 7: And they had a really uh strong music program. And 540 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 7: at the time, I mean I'm in radio now, but 541 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 7: at the time I wanted to be a music supervisor 542 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,440 Speaker 7: and there was a couple of professors that that were 543 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 7: able to help me with that. Well, they didn't help 544 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 7: me get into it, but they helped me learn of 545 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 7: the process and getting into you know, agents and making 546 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 7: reels and stuff like that. So it was it was, 547 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 7: you know, for me, it was that's what it was, 548 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 7: That's what it did its job. 549 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, Nikki, you're from a foreign land, so 550 00:32:56,640 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 2: you have like no idea of this whole college process 551 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: of applying, right because you just go right in. 552 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 9: It's very different in Australia. I mean I went to 553 00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 9: a private institution. I studied journalism, and I don't think 554 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 9: it was that difficult to get in. I just got 555 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 9: in and went and then I started working very young, right. 556 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 2: My niece from Switzerland visited over the holidays. She's in 557 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 2: her gap year. That's what they do in Switzerland. Everybody 558 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 2: finishes secondary school and then takes the year off to 559 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 2: go visit their relatives in America and go to Disneyland 560 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,720 Speaker 2: and then they go back and they go right to 561 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: university and they go right to work. 562 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 9: We do that as well. 563 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 2: We do that. 564 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 9: Do we take gap years. I lived in England as well. 565 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 9: They're big on gap years. We take gap years in Australia, 566 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 9: and we also get long service leave if we've worked 567 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 9: at a company for ten years or more so, if 568 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 9: you've worked all the place for ten years, they give 569 00:33:53,840 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 9: you three months extra vacation. 570 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, study and study money. Some of them give you 571 00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 2: study money. And Denmark they give you money where they 572 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 2: actually pay you to. Right now here in the United States, 573 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 2: we drive our eighteen, nineteen, twenty and twenty one year 574 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 2: olds into debt to the two and of one hundred 575 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 2: and fifty thousand dollars and then send them off into 576 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 2: the world. We're the starting salary is sixty five thousand dollars. 577 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 9: Well, I think something like a vocational schools are amazing 578 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:24,360 Speaker 9: because that's real skill and it's not a useless degree, 579 00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 9: and it gets people into jobs and they can have 580 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 9: amazing careers. And in Europe and Australia, you can make 581 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 9: a huge sum of money as a trade. If you're 582 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 9: a carpenter and an electrician, a plumber, you making the 583 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 9: big bucks's. 584 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 2: And that's happening here now too. I hope that's let 585 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 2: me tell you something, man, See. 586 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 9: I'd much rather than a guy who work boots than 587 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 9: a guy with a briefcase. 588 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, who's the two undred thousand dollars in debt?
