1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: Three guarantees in life. It's a jewel show. That's not

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 1: one of the guarantees. Death taxes, and I will never

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: be good at doing things around the house. Those are

4
00:00:10,640 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: the three guarantees in life. I'm terrible at putting things together.

5
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:17,159
Speaker 1: At a certain point in my life, I was like,

6
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: I'm so tired of Ikea putting together furniture. I was like, well,

7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna buy regular furniture. Then, well, I remember when

8
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: I made that decision. Then I was like, I went

9
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: to a furniture store and I was like, and you

10
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: walked out, Yeah, what do you buy? Just everything at

11
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: regular furniture stores is super expensive. Basic wood dresser's five

12
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, a thousand dress a thousand dollars. Yeah. I'm

13
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: still young enough where I haven't really built anything or

14
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: ordered anything, so I kind of have no idea about

15
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: prices of furniture. Yeah, I'm good with that type of furniture,

16
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: though I don't even like it, like I like the

17
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: stuff that's cheaper more. Yeah, it actually looks better and

18
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:51,199
Speaker 1: you're gonna get rid of it anyway, and people are

19
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: gonna sit on it and get their stink all over it.

20
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 1: What's the point in spending that much money, Like you

21
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: go into a create barrel and everything in there is

22
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,279
Speaker 1: so expensive. Yeah, hood of a crate and barrel? What

23
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,600
Speaker 1: come on? You haven't heard a barrel before? I heard

24
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,040
Speaker 1: of a cretan barrel. I still haven't been into a

25
00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: craning barrel. What furniture store do you heard of? Do

26
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 1: I hut of? Yeah? Ikea, that's right, that's you put

27
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 1: that together though, yep, yep, we'll furniture for less. Okay,

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,040
Speaker 1: that is where it ends. Even even those places are

29
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: still expensive though, And so anyway, Amazon is good stuff.

30
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: So we order a lot of those like furniture off Amazon.

31
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: And then because I'm very handy with tools, I put

32
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,920
Speaker 1: it together and it's frustrating. It takes me forever, and

33
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:33,480
Speaker 1: usually it takes me about a week and a half

34
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: to even open the box because I procrastinate getting to everything.

35
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: And so I'll be like, hey, are you ever gonna

36
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: put together um the bed? We're sleeping on the floor

37
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: and yeah, and then She'll started to do it and

38
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know, I got it, I got it,

39
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: I got it right. I've just started to do it.

40
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: But we're both really bad at it. Yeah, together, we're

41
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: really bad. So we finally were like, you know what,

42
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: let's not do this anymore. Let's hire a professional. Let's

43
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: hire a handy man to do it. So we hired

44
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: a handyman to come over for the first time to

45
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: put together a couple of dressers. And I couldn't even

46
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,960
Speaker 1: do that because it took someone. No, I couldn't even

47
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: do that, right, because it took the guy. How long? Well,

48
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: I ordered five pieces of furniture because we had like

49
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: a lot of mismashed furniture in a couple of rooms.

50
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: So ordered five cheap pieces of furniture on Amazon and

51
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: hired this dude to come over and do them all.

52
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,079
Speaker 1: And so he was there for seven hours, right, Yeah,

53
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: and he got done with one piece of furniture. I'm like,

54
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 1: I'm not even exaggerating. He did not get done with

55
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: more than one, Like he started on the second one. Yeah,

56
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: but after seven hours he wanted to go home. Are

57
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,320
Speaker 1: you paying him hourly? I mean, I think it's a

58
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: flat rate at this point. Yeah, it's going to be

59
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 1: a flat rate. I would have paid him hourly, but

60
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 1: I'm like seven hours to put together addresser every single time.

61
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: I would have walk by him, because he was in

62
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: like the garage doing it every single while I walked

63
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: by him. I'm like, that doesn't look like he's done

64
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: much hours. I'm tired of putting together furniture and I'm

65
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: not good at it, and it takes forever, and we go,

66
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 1: let's just have somebody do it. Let's let's do it.

67
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 1: Let's just spend the money and have somebody do it.

68
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 1: We're trying to save money all the time by doing ourselves.

69
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: Let's just hire somebody. And he's doing it, and then

70
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 1: it's like go help him? Like that, I was like,

71
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: do you want to go help I don't know if

72
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 1: that sounded rude, but you didn't say it rudely. You

73
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: just said, you know, do you want to help him out?

74
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:23,120
Speaker 1: Or go help him out? Maybe? And I'm like, well,

75
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 1: so now I'm still having to do it. Well you're

76
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,679
Speaker 1: asking actually, you're like, sho, should I finish this? After

77
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: he left, like the second one that he was on, No,

78
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: let him do it. And I have faith in him

79
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: because three of the three of the piece of furniture

80
00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: are the same, you know, the first desk and the

81
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 1: other two are same thing. But like a dresser and

82
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: like a smaller dresser. Right, So I have faith that

83
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: the other two are going to go faster for him,

84
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: because I feel like he kind of figured it out

85
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 1: towards the end there. He's still gonna be going by Christmas.

86
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 1: At this point, I just want to see how long

87
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: it takes him out. We're ordering some new stuff right

88
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: now to be delivered today. And by the way, he

89
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: was supposed to come back. He's like, oh, I'll come

90
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: back tomorrow early, right ear in the morning. Yeah, and

91
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: he's an hour late. I want to hire this guy

92
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: for good, Like I don't care how much it costs,

93
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: but I want him to be the new at home

94
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: handyman that just takes give him the worst task of

95
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: Like we need a swimming pool, build it. We do

96
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: need a swim in. It would be amazing to see

97
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 1: him build a swimming pool. By the way, if you're listening,

98
00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: we love you. Yeah, you're doing great, sweetie, And you're

99
00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: doing great. The best experience I've ever had in my

100
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 1: life a full wall entertainment system like all like I'm

101
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: talking huge covers, an entire wall. I ordered it from

102
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: Ikea and spent the extra hundred bucks to get them

103
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: to come build it. It took them twenty minute. Didn't

104
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 1: he even open the instruction manual? They didn't even open it?

105
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 1: So what are we doing that's going to end up

106
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: being cheaper something like that though. Yeah, But the problem

107
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: is it's multiple brands, right, so they're just you're just

108
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: hiring You're getting the product, and then you're hiring random

109
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,839
Speaker 1: guy to figure out how to build product. Right. They're

110
00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: employees for Ikea. Right. But but there's a there's an

111
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: offer on Amazon that says, do you want something to

112
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: build a for you? And I've never done that either

113
00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 1: because I'm an idiot. I mean, they're probably work better

114
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: than what you did. Most things will look better than

115
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: hiring a guy to hang out in your garage for

116
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,719
