It was created and written by the creators 11 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 2: of South Park, so it's raunchy, like raunchy, af do 12 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 2: not bring your parents. We were sitting wait, I got 13 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 2: really good seeds. And first of all, it's taken me 14 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: so long because five years ago, Book of Mormon was 15 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 2: the Hamilton Broadway where you could not get tickets, and 16 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 2: I five years ago was earning like way less than 17 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 2: I am now, so I could never afford to get tickets. 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: There were four hundred dollars. But I feel like I 19 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: have to say thank you to Hamilton because now that 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 2: Hamilton's out and Book of Mormon is not that popular anymore, 21 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: tickets are actually not bad and we were able to go, 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: but yeah, it's hilarious. And we were sitting next to 23 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 2: the whole premise of it is about Mormon missionaries who 24 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 2: are sent to Uganda and had the task of saving 25 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 2: or baptizing this Ugandan village, and just hilarity ensues, and 26 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: like it is not if you, you know, if anything 27 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 2: Larry Wilmore said in his White House correspondence to Inner 28 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 2: Speech offended you, then you don't want to see Book 29 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 2: of Mormon. But it was it was like just like 30 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: just fun. And we were sitting next to these two 31 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: old dudes. There's this older couple right next to us, 32 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: and it was really cute seeing them. Like are we 33 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: allowed to laugh at that? It's like, yes, you can 34 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 2: to joke about the devil and me like, yeah, okay, 35 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: that was some fun.

You mean, the lens where if 173 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: you don't work and feed your kids, they will die, like. 174 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: And if you want to break, that's what vacation is for. 175 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 1: Save your vacations on time, and you know, take three 176 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: weeks off. 177 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: If you all have kids, you have maternity time, maternity 178 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: time all the time. 179 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 3: Exactly. It's called coming home, fool. 180 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 2: Coming home and doing whatever the hell you want to do. 181 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 2: I am enjoying thirty almost thirty years of maternity time myself, 182 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: and this is just bogus. Did you And also what's 183 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: funny is she was supposed to go on GMA and 184 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: she bailed. Really yeah, she toly let them hanging, like 185 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 2: I guess right up before the segment was supposed to air, 186 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: because she probably got in the building and you know 187 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 2: two GMA's audiences. 188 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: Right, women who have kids, women who. 189 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: Are yes, either have kids or you know, their home 190 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 2: at eight nine am watching this, so they were ready 191 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 2: with their pitchforks, I'm sure, and she just like went 192 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: into the building and walked right out. 193 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, she was like, you know what, actually, I'm not 194 00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 3: getting paid enough for this. But that was dumb. 195 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: You had to know that that was gonna happen, because 196 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: I justay, no. 197 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 2: I was just gonna say. In the concept, she talks 198 00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: about people who have three months time off, Well that's 199 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 2: not the norm. America is one of the only developed 200 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 2: nations that does not guarantee paid family leave time. You 201 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 2: might get eight weeks twelve weeks off, but you're not 202 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 2: going to get paid for it. If you are, you 203 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: may even get paid half what you were getting paid 204 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: at a normal time. So it's just it's just bs, 205 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 2: and it's from someone who clearly does not understand the 206 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: way that maternity leave works. 207 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, does she not know anybody with children? Like 208 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: anybody ever? Like if you've just been around someone who's 209 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: had a baby, you just see just how struck. I 210 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: remember within the first three months, I always would visit my 211 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: sister and I'd be like, uh, are you okay. 212 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:57,199 Speaker 2: Because she looks like, hell, you're a human boob. 213 00:09:57,679 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. Literally, She's just like I just sit here and 214 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,240 Speaker 1: take my shirt. I mean, like I have never my 215 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 1: adult life seeing my sister's boobs. But like, once you 216 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:06,800 Speaker 1: get to a point, she's like, I don't even care anymore. 217 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: Just stand right there. I have to get the baby. 218 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 1: It wasnt exactly and it's just literally she just looked exhausted. 219 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: I was like, do you want me to do your hair? 220 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: She's like hair, what's that? And it's just so tiring. 221 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: So and three months is not really enough time to 222 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: get a baby acclimated to the fact that they're not 223 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,880 Speaker 1: no longer in tide of wone. They're still like, wait, 224 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 1: so where am I at? And who are you again? 225 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: Your voice sounds familiar, but I don't know who you are. 226 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 1: And it's just very, very, very stressful. It's just now, 227 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: like when I was babysitting and I was telling her, 228 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 1: oh man, I'm so exhausted, She's like exhausted. 229 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 3: She was like, he's darn near independent. He's darn near 230 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:43,679 Speaker 3: an adult. 231 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: Now she's like when he was three months, two months, 232 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: She's liked. 233 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: This is the easy part. Seven months is nothing. 234 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 2: And here's one thing I've learned working with, you know, 235 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: working like side by side to someone who just had 236 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 2: a baby, Like you do not want to complain about 237 00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 2: how tired you are or how exhausting your weekend was, 238 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 2: Like you just you can't complain anymore. I look at 239 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 2: her and I'm like, yeah, I really am going to 240 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 2: shut up and take a seat now, because that's that's 241 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 2: a real struggle. 242 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it is. 243 00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 1: I mean, like I said in the beginning, you know, 244 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: as the kids get older, it definitely gets a little 245 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: bit easier. But I just can't believe she wrote that. 246 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,439 Speaker 1: I mean, I think she just wanted to be polarizing 247 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: on purpose and did not quite realize how polarizing she 248 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:26,680 Speaker 1: was going to be and how much she was going 249 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: to be dragged. 250 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 3: But here we are. 251 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 2: There's one other thing I'll say on this is that, 252 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 2: you know, she talks about the concept of how it's 253 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: so easy for parents to just say, oh, I have 254 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: to leave my I have to leave at six, you know, 255 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 2: on the dot, because you know, little Joey needs soccer 256 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 2: practice or whatever. But in my experience, the parents that 257 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,360 Speaker 2: I work with, they don't. They feel almost less like 258 00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 2: they should be able to, like, less likely to say 259 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 2: that kind of stuff because they fear being looked at, 260 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 2: as you know, of not valuing or prioritizing their work, 261 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: and they try and do it all. And I think 262 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 2: it's even easier. And this is experience I've had just watching, 263 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,719 Speaker 2: you know, over several employers, is that sometimes the men 264 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 2: you have kids are more likely to be like, oh sorry, 265 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 2: I'm running late, or oh sorry, I have to leave early. 266 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 2: Then the women I work with, I can't think of 267 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: a you know, one time my coworkers like called out 268 00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 2: or said she's going to be late for you know, 269 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:21,679 Speaker 2: her kids spit up on her or whatever. But I 270 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 2: can think of a couple dudes who have sent that 271 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 2: inter office email. Yeah, and there's just that extra pressure 272 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 2: I think to try and you know, act like to 273 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: cut it all. 274 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, like and it's just so crazy because you're right though, 275 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: Like my best friend just had a baby. He's just 276 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: turned one, and well not just had a baby, but she, 277 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: you know, she's always stressed when he was sick for rock, 278 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: because he's teething and all of a sudden, you're teething, 279 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: all these things go wrong. There's like stomach issues, there's fever, 280 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: and so he's been sick. And she does have a 281 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: daycare center where she drops them off, but they were like, 282 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: you can't bring a sick baby to daycare, just can't. 283 00:12:56,040 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 1: So she's just so stressed, like what are we going 284 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: to do? Like I have to go to work, I 285 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: have you know, I don't want to be the person 286 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 1: who's like not at work for a week because my 287 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 1: baby's teething. 288 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 3: What do we do? 289 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: What do we do? And I'm just watching like, wow, 290 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: that's really hard. My nephew was in the hospital because 291 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: his feet had gotten really high. 292 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 3: They didn't get home. 293 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: Until like five, six o'clock in the morning on a Monday. 294 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,079 Speaker 1: She texts her boss like, I'll be there at ten. 295 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 3: You know, just got back from the hospital. 296 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,199 Speaker 1: Can you imagine, like what like if I just got 297 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 1: back from the hospital, There's no way I'm going into work. 298 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: But she's feeling like, oh my gosh, I just got 299 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: back to work. I don't want to not come in, 300 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 1: and thankfully she got.

I took a gap year after 420 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 2: my senior year of college, which was the best thing ever. 421 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,520 Speaker 2: Not a full year, but it was like nine months. 422 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 2: I love that idea. I'm actually writing something up on 423 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 2: it for Yahoo today about like, yeah, what is a 424 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 2: gap year? How do you do it the right way? 425 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 2: And it's sort of a new concept in America, but 426 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,719 Speaker 2: people in Europe and Australia have been doing it forever. 427 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 1: No. 428 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 3: I think that's great.

It's like, yeah, it'd be nice to take 433 00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: a break from all that. 434 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 2: Well has already been interning on like if she's taken 435 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:58,880 Speaker 2: her summer internships with like HBO on The Girls Show, 436 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 2: and there's one of the show she worked on. I 437 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 2: think it could be cool.

So you 440 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 2: get the idea is you get admitted, you accept, and 441 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 2: then you write a letter or some schools are organized 442 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 2: and they actually have a specific form and you defer 443 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,479 Speaker 2: for a year and you say, okay, I'll you know, 444 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: enter next fall, and like you can do there's like 445 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:23,160 Speaker 2: whole organizations.

You can 450 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 2: do AmeriCorps. There's another one called oh crap, I'm forgetting 451 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 2: the name of it, but American Gap Association is like 452 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,159 Speaker 2: a really good resource for that.

So that's awesome. 653 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 1: And then the fact that you don't have any debt 654 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: moving forward is doubly awesome. 655 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: Huh. 656 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 1: Well, my initial knee jerk reaction is to say not 657 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: to use credit cards to put yourself through school I 658 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: feel like that'd be a step back, you know, totally. 659 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 3: And I mean I can. 660 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 1: Understand her hesitancy and like using a lump sum of 661 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: money for school, but it's to me, it's better than 662 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 1: putting yourself back in debt. I feel like she needs 663 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: to sit down and just like, are you gonna. 664 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 3: Sell real estate to go to school? 665 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: You know, like some of it, Like is that what's 666 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: gonna happen or I just don't know, like what specifically 667 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: some of her her money is tied up in, and 668 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: just being mindful of making sure the places that you're 669 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 1: going to get the money from is probably the best 670 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: place to take it from. Meaning like if you have 671 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: like rental property and it's giving you a ton of 672 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:34,520 Speaker 1: money a month, or maybe there's ways to shift and 673 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: adjust where some of your investments are so that with 674 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 1: the investment yields more income and you can use that 675 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: income like dividends you know, from stocks and stuff to 676 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:47,960 Speaker 1: pay for your MBA. Just being creative, like maybe a 677 00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: mix between what you make at work and then you know, 678 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: some of the stuff that your mom left you, but 679 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: not all of it, but definitely not new debt if 680 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 1: you can avoid it. 681 00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I definitely. I mean, I am a fan 682 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,760 Speaker 2: of Okay, so you have this inheritance, and it's obviously 683 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 2: education is an amazing way to use it. I mean 684 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 2: the fact that you're even considering that is just it 685 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 2: shows you have pretty good judgment already. And the fact 686 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,239 Speaker 2: that your mom went out of her way to make 687 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 2: sure you had this in a mix of savings and 688 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: investment accounts in real estate, like she set you up 689 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: for success. But I would say, first thing is you 690 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: want to set aside money so you have an emergency fund, 691 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 2: just basics, So don't blow through your entire cash savings 692 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: on education and then have nothing left when you know 693 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 2: something could go wrong and you might need some money. 694 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 2: So I would set aside like the standard three six 695 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 2: months amount of income you need on the side. And 696 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 2: I don't see a problem personally, I don't. I don't 697 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: think there's any problem with taking that money and using 698 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 2: it for school. I think it's especially if you're going 699 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 2: to pay use them, like spend the money anyway. All 700 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 2: you're going to do, and especially with MBA is like 701 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: that's usually that means private loans, and private loans me 702 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: high interest rates because usually you max out your federal 703 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 2: and your federal student loan allowance pretty quickly with your MBA. 704 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 2: But I say, keep your job, use the inheritance to 705 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: pay for your MBA. I mean, it's great if it 706 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 2: can pay for all of it, but doesn't really give 707 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 2: that much detail. It may seem like it's crazy to 708 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 2: put that much money down right up front, but people 709 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 2: do it. I mean, and and you'd be doing it anyway. 710 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 2: If you take out loans, you're still putting down a 711 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: huge lumps on a cash exactly. 712 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 3: So you're going to pay for one way or the other. 713 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. So I and you have the investment accounts, don't 714 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: touch those. And you have the real estate in real estate. 715 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:32,480 Speaker 2: It's a great long term investment, or it can be. 716 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 2: But that's the kind of thing you you know, you 717 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 2: want to hold on to, especially if it's New York 718 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 2: real estate. Hang on to that exactly, especially right now. 719 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 2: But it sounds like you got a good head on 720 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:46,840 Speaker 2: your shoulders. 721 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 3: Yeah. I was like, Wow, that's good. 722 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: I wish. I mean, I feel like my father has 723 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he's still alive, thankfully, and I feel like 724 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: that he has made financial choices that will make sure 725 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 1: that my mom's okay. And we're all grown now, but 726 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: that he has set up his finances in a way 727 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 1: that will be you know, that they'll be something left 728 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: over to put toward generational wealth, just because that's just 729 00:32:11,480 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: the kind of person he is. And that's like some 730 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: of the stuff that he's shown us. I'm like, wow, 731 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 1: you do have money. He's like, yes, what do you 732 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 1: think I'd been. 733 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 3: Doing all the side? 734 00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 2: That is my dream man. When I was talking about 735 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 2: I was talking to my coworker earlier about how much 736 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 2: he spends on his kids, just childcare. I mean, he 737 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 2: showed me a bill. I don't want to put his 738 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 2: business out there, but it was several thousand dollars for 739 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 2: his like toddler's childcare and he and then he was like, 740 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 2: oh yeah, and he has another kid who's in kindergarten. 741 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 2: And even that doesn't really help, you know, because they're 742 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 2: not it's not that they're paying for all day daycare now. 743 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 2: But then I have to pay for after school daycare 744 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 2: because school lets out at three and they work till 745 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: like five or six, and then summertime is coming up. 746 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 2: And he was telling me how much summer school costs 747 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 2: or not a summer camp costs and I was thinking like, 748 00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 2: and we were going back and forth, like, yeah, man, 749 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,880 Speaker 2: when we were kids, our parents didn't have the money 750 00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 2: or didn't even know about those kinds of opportunities. But 751 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 2: I would be so happy to be able to give 752 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 2: my kids those kind of like opportunities. Like it sounds 753 00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 2: like the worst, thousands of dollars for childcare, thousands of 754 00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 2: dollars for college tuition, but like I feel like that's 755 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 2: my goal is to be sure that you know, like 756 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 2: your dad, I do all the work, all the hard 757 00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 2: work now and the and the make the tough decisions, 758 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 2: you know, to save money now so that we can 759 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: can do things like that for our kids later on. 760 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 2: The kids I don't even know yet, but you know, 761 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 2: and if they're breads, I'll just take it off from 762 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 2: myself exactly. 763 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 1: Like, see, you were gonna have a great life, but 764 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: you decided now. 765 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 3: No. 766 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,160 Speaker 1: But I think that yeah, So I mean I think 767 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,240 Speaker 1: that's our advice for you is to, you know, do 768 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 1: a mix of maybe some of the things that you're 769 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 1: working with, Like Mandy said, put aside money for emergency fund. 770 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't sell real estate, but there's nothing wrong with 771 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 1: using some of the money that your mom gave you 772 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:01,040 Speaker 1: and left you for education. It's because of education, if 773 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: done right, will help put more money in your pocket. 774 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 3: So it's a win win. 775 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: Maybe he's a teeny tiny amount to have some fun. Yes, 776 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,720 Speaker 2: I believe in that, maybe like five percent. I believe 777 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 2: do something your mom.

I 818 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 2: guess the win of this is that President Obama's speech 819 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,279 Speaker 2: was like the best twenty minutes ever. Did he get 820 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 2: a chance to watch it? No, but I will spoiler 821 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 2: at the end spoiler alert, he just like takes the 822 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 2: mic and drops it. 823 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 3: Yes, I heard that, drops mic. 824 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, bad assery from start to finish. So 825 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,719 Speaker 2: Larry Wilmore came on aut I didn't watch the whole 826 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 2: thing as it happened. I watched like Sunday morning, because 827 00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 2: you can go to c C span dot org or 828 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: whatever the website is and watch it yourself. But I 829 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 2: thought Larry Wilmore it was like really funny, and you know, 830 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 2: we haven't had a black host of the White House 831 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 2: correspondent cinner and like I don't know how long, but 832 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 2: one of the things he said at the end was 833 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 2: kind of controversial. Was he used, well, there, I only 834 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:54,920 Speaker 2: heard one thing. He made a joke about the word jigaboo, jigaboo, 835 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:58,920 Speaker 2: which was like a very old timey derogatory term for 836 00:36:58,960 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 2: a black person. 837 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 3: And yeah, and at. 838 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 2: The very end of his speech he was saying, I 839 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 2: forget what it was like the punchline of some joke. 840 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 2: But he's like, yo, bear, you did it my n word. Yeah, 841 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 2: And Obama didn't seem to like phase by it. But 842 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 2: of course the media it's all over it, and yes, 843 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: thought pieces and tweets and like people are it's always 844 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,759 Speaker 2: like this, you know, and I'm just wondering, is that 845 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 2: a win or is that a miss? Like I personally, 846 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,279 Speaker 2: I don't know. To me, it's like a like maybe 847 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 2: they know each other like that, or I don't know, 848 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,319 Speaker 2: I don't know how to feel about it. 849 00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's so crazy because to me it's it's 850 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: it's like a typical like you know whatever Superman and 851 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: his boys, you know, like you like, yeah, my nick 852 00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 1: you know, and so it's not a but I guess 853 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 1: because of like where it was, like I'm president, Obama 854 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 1: probably didn't feel any kind of way because with his 855 00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:00,239 Speaker 1: you know, black friends, college, growing up, whatever, it's a 856 00:38:00,239 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: big deal to. 857 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:01,919 Speaker 3: Say that to each other. 858 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 1: Like but like it just it's rare in like such 859 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: open company that you. 860 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,399 Speaker 3: Use words like that. 861 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 1: You know. There's definitely stuff that I say with my 862 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: girlfriends that I would not ever say, you know, and 863 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 1: like public public we might just say, like, you know, 864 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,919 Speaker 1: with each other. So that's probably where he wasn't based 865 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: because it wasn't like He's not going to take a fence. 866 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:26,840 Speaker 1: President Obama's like, you know, whatever, what's up? But like, yikes, 867 00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 1: the whole world is watching, so they're like, you. 868 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: Know, so audience, I know, so they were like, oh 869 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 2: my god, but I mean awards. 870 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just exactly if there had been the BET Awards, 871 00:38:41,640 --> 00:38:43,919 Speaker 1: nobody would have better than that. So I can see 872 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: both sides for sure, And I don't know that it's 873 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:48,880 Speaker 1: a win or loss. I'm kind of like neutral on it. 874 00:38:48,920 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm kind of like, well, you know, it's just normal, 875 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: you know, black guy camaraderie conversation. But at the same time, 876 00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: I don't know that the world is ready to see 877 00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 1: all that. 878 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 2: It's like it just made me think about code switching 879 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 2: and how we kind of turn it on and off. Yes, 880 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 2: I never grew up saying that word. I'm never comfortable 881 00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 2: saying it's I don't have a code to switch. I 882 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 2: just don't turn that code on. I just don't say it. 883 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 2: But I have friends, obviously, friends who do family my 884 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 2: dad like, and it's just it's natural for me. To 885 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 2: hear that kind of thing. But yeah, it's sort of 886 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,040 Speaker 2: for me, it's a win in that. Larry was like, 887 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,200 Speaker 2: I'm not going to turn the switch, like for this moment, 888 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 2: Like in this moment, you are my brother, like we 889 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:31,200 Speaker 2: and what you signify is so huge for not just 890 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 2: black men but all of black you know, America, And 891 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:36,040 Speaker 2: can we just take a second and acknowledge how fucking 892 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 2: cool this is? 893 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I mean, I think you know 894 00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:43,080 Speaker 1: what it's so I think, like I like that the 895 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 1: way you phrase that. You're right, it was like we 896 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:47,640 Speaker 1: all cold switch. It's like, honestly, it's not a word 897 00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:49,480 Speaker 1: that I use typically. I don't think too many, like 898 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 1: I mean, none of my girlfriends. It's not like a 899 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,560 Speaker 1: hey girl, Like that's not a normal greeting, Like it's 900 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 1: mostly usually a normal greeting among men of color, not 901 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: necessarily women of color. So that's not something I normally 902 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say unless I was just trying to be 903 00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:04,920 Speaker 1: really funny with a girlfriend of mine, you know, or 904 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 1: even if I'm talking to a guy friend maybe to 905 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:10,960 Speaker 1: be funny with him. But but yeah, it was that 906 00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: is definitely like kind of like a win in that, 907 00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:14,680 Speaker 1: like you know it. Normally I would code switch, but 908 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: today I will not, and you will deal. 909 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:20,320 Speaker 2: I don't think he's listening to sleep over it, honestly. 910 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 3: I think both of them. 911 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:26,320 Speaker 1: President Obama's like, honestly, yeah, so elections are happening in November. 912 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,800 Speaker 2: I don't care.
