10
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: Nine year old Braiden Connor was running late for school

11
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: and missed the bus. But that's Instead of getting his

12
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: parents to drive him, he took matters into his own hands.

13
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: Braiden grabbed the keys to the family's white Chevy Silverado

14
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,960
Speaker 1: and drove himself the three aisles to school.

15
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 2: Impressive, I know he reached the pedals. There it is.

16
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: He pulled into the parking lot of his elementary school

17
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: like a boss, jumped out the car.

18
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 2: And it's not even a little car, no a drug.

19
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 2: That's a big one.

20
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: He jumped out, locked the doors and then continued on

21
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 1: with his.

22
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: Business motivated kid. Though, you want your kids to be

23
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: self sufficient, but there's a line.

24
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, definitely, And no one might have noticed since

25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,440
Speaker 1: he didn't hurt anyone or anything on his commute in,

26
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: but one adult had spotted the nine year old barely

27
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: peeking over the dashboard behind the wheel, and they called

28
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: the cops on it. At that point, Brayden explained his

29
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: mom was out of town and his dad had to

30
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: go to work, and he did not want to miss

31
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: state testing day.

32
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: He had no other option but to drive himself to school.

33
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: These parents, oh, my god, may want to get the bike.

34
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, but after hearing that, police gave him a pat

35
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: on the head, return the car keys, and let him

36
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: drive home as long as you promise not to crash

37
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: into anybody.

38
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm kidding.

39
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: Braiden's parents are called and picked him up, although one

40
00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: officer did admit that he parked better than most of

41
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 1: the other teachers in the locks and no citation was issued.

42
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:30,120
Speaker 2: Good work, Braiden.

43
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: This next laser story is out of Nottingham, Maryland's Donald

44
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 1: Steet's got a call from his mom the other day

45
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: to come over to her place and help her move

46
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: some furniture. So he trudged over there like a good

47
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: son should and began moving things around. And at one

48
00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: point she had to move the couch to one side

49
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: of the room, but she didn't like how it looked.

50
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,079
Speaker 2: There, so then it was moved to another wall.

51
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 1: D mon. So that's when he saw something tucked inside

52
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: of the cushions. It was a small stack of scra

53
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 1: ah lottery tickets intended his stocking stuffers that had been

54
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: forgotten since Christmas. Oh my god. So Donald asked his

55
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: mom if she didn't mind if he scratched him. She

56
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: said yeah, okay, So he brought him home and him

57
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: and his wife went to town.

58
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 2: First they got a six dollar winner ooh, that's exciting.

59
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: N fifteen bucks until they got to the last ticket

60
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,320
Speaker 1: in the stack that turned out to be a fifty

61
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: thousand dollars prize.

62
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

63
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: Donald said he does plan to split the winnings with

64
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 1: his mom.

65
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: Like he probably should.

66
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: Nice as for his share, it'll go towards saving for

67
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: a car and paying off his debts, which does include

68
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: more money than he owes to his mother. Oh, in

69
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: the end, she's actually gonna end up with most of it.

70
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,200
Speaker 1: In order he was suckered into moving furniture for ackf

71
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: you own. Yeah, this next Lazer story is out of

72
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: Kasha Blanca. How would you feel if your parents only

73
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: left you less than one percent of their wealth?

74
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: Nobody get tap it? I mean it's fine. I don't know.

75
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: I don't I don't plan on getting it. Yeah, I

76
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: don't know. I didn't even know that was an option. Yeah,

77
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,359
Speaker 2: I plan on being rich. I don't care. I'm embarrassed

78
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 2: to work with you. You were like, who cares? Who

79
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 2: needs money to survive? I don't know anyone who's ever

80
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,799
Speaker 2: gotten in here? Going to be paying stuff off probably

81
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: after there.

82
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, there is a discussion about credit cards and where

83
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,279
Speaker 1: the debt gets passed.

84
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: You guys are just making me depressed. It's not it's

85
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: not great. It's going to bed only gets five million.

86
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 2: Most people would be upset that their parents didn't leave

87
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 2: them anything. In the will. You told me I'm gonna

88
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: get her monopoly set.

89
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: I know, I'm getting that.

90
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 2: It's a nice one.

91
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,880
Speaker 1: So look, less than one percent of their wealth is

92
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: not great? But what if their wealth was over a

93
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars? Billy? I bring it up because Bill

94
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,120
Speaker 1: Gates recently discre that his three children will inherit less

95
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: than one percent of his money. Oh okay, but they

96
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,760
Speaker 1: still get all of daddy stocks.

97
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 2: They're really nice people. Yes, we had two of the

98
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: kids coming. Yeah, really cool kids.

99
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,720
Speaker 1: Forbes estimates his worth at over one hundred billions, so

100
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: one percent of that is still at least one billion.

101
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: Leg is that the right mask of one hundred billion

102
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: is it's still a billion?

103
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,840
Speaker 2: Me, it's only one billion. He's making headlines for acting

104
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 2: like he's barely giving his kids anything, and it's still

105
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 2: a billion dollars. He could give them more. Brug can't

106
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 2: take in that many zeros. You should have been this

107
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 2: upset at the start of the break. It's I got

108
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: you where you watch it out? His kids what a

109
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,400
Speaker 2: good man who?

110
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: Yes, they did sit in on our show when they

111
00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: were younger. Are now ages twenty two, twenty five, and

112
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,800
Speaker 1: twenty eight.

113
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: Marry one of us. Well, hopefully they buy our radio station.

114
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 1: It would be a great investment if you think about it,

115
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: even though our air condition and constantly doesn't work in

116
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: the summers, but definitely biased.

117
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it works really good in the winter.

118
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,359
Speaker 1: Yes, it's awesome. Bill said quote in this case, my

119
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: kids got a great upbringing and education, but less than

120
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: one percent of the total wealth because I decided it

121
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't be a favor to them.

122
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 2: It's not a dynasty. I'm not a billion dollars. No,

123
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,479
Speaker 2: I know. But he's so una touch he thinks that's

124
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 2: not a lot.

125
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 1: He's saying, I'm not asking them to run Microsoft suck and.

126
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 2: Listening to his daughter's podcast is all about the struggles

127
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: of becoming an entrepreneur. I'm like, girl, you don't need

128
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:32,479
Speaker 2: to work.

129
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: Hold on, because Bill went on to say he wants

130
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: to give them a chance to have their own earnings

131
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: and success, and by only having a billion dollars, that

132
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: will hopefully give them the motivation to scratch and claw

133
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 1: their way to the top of any industry that they choose.

134
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 2: I remember when they were in here, when they were teenagers.

135
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 2: I was like, I didn't know what to talk to

136
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 2: him about.

137
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, what are your guys's plans for the summer,

138
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: And the girl was like, well, I'm.

139
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 2: Gonna go work at the school we're trying to start

140
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 2: in Africa. Yeah, And then the boy was talking about

141
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,520
Speaker 2: the yacht trip off of the coast of Italy.

142
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: And it's that kind of tough love parenting that I

143
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,880
Speaker 1: hope Brooke will show to her children.

144
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, how many Bill they only get there we go?

145
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 2: It's going to be a shocking number for them.

146
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: This next Lazer story is out of Fetch Forum. Pets

147
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: are expensive, but a new study found they're more than

148
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: worth it. Oh yeah, because apparently researchers in England look

149
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: at how much happier we are when we have a pet,

150
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: and they even managed to put an.

151
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 2: Actual dollar figure on that.

152
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 1: In fact, having a dog or a cat makes you

153
00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: as happy as you would be earning an extra ninety

154
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:44,840
Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year.

155
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 2: Oh take that Bill Gates's kiss.

156
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: But they cost you money, but it feels like you're

157
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 1: earning an extra ninety grand just having them around.

158
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: Pet so badly.

159
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,680
