1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: Buckle up because things have gotten easy and even crazier

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 1: since last time. So the case has officially turned into

3
00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: a full blown media circus. The tabloids have latched onto it,

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:12,840
Speaker 1: and now it's this giant scandal splashed across every Every

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:15,319
Speaker 1: article I see paints me as a gold digger who

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: hit the jackpop by marrying an elderly billionaire, rather than

7
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,919
Speaker 1: what I actually am, a grieving widow fighting for what's

8
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 1: been promised to her. It's infuriating. They're relentless. Anna Nicole's

9
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: battle for billions is the headline of the month. Apparently,

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,200
Speaker 1: photographers follow me everywhere, snapping pics of me doing the

11
00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: most mundane things and then twisting them into something salacious.

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: They mock my clothes, my makeup, my lifestyle, and this

13
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 1: one hurts even my parenting. You bring too far. You

14
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: bring kiddo into this.

15
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: Too far, dude.

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: I like you to meet two people, right, ort and Cloud.

17
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: All right, it's time to go space Blender. You bring

18
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: you bring how you leave Howard Junior out of this? Okay, Okay,

19
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 1: leave Howard out of this. Yes, I renamed my five

20
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: year old son Howard Junior. Howard Junior, Little h shay,

21
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:03,920
Speaker 1: so like, can I just exist without every little thing

22
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,400
Speaker 1: being dissected and dragged through the mudd?

23
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: And again, just to remind you, who would we rather have.

24
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 1: His money go to the struggling single mom or the

25
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: probably entitled billionaires kid?

26
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 2: Again, what are we doing here? At this point?

27
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,039
Speaker 1: The courtroom isn't even about legal arguments anymore. It's just

28
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: the stage where my characaracter gets ripped apart over and over.

29
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: And also that would suck to go through like immensely, right, I.

30
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: Mean I can't deny.

31
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: That, right, Yeah, I'm not just fighting for Howard's the

32
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 1: state anymore.

33
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 2: I'm fighting for my dignity.

34
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 1: I'm fighting to prove that what Howard and I had

35
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: was real and that our relationship was meaningful and not

36
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: some sham like everyone wanted to believe.

37
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 2: It's exhausting. I'm not giving it up now for the

38
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 2: good news finally, right, Oh boy, I can't wait for

39
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 2: some good news.

40
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: Oh boy, stop it. I'm gonna put your time out

41
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 1: with rioling. The case went all the way it did

42
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:01,040
Speaker 1: to the Supreme Court. They had another baby.

43
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 3: Let me read all right, Okay, okay, okay, okay, Yeah,

44
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 3: she's not giving up unlike her husband did the big

45
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 3: on life.

46
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, what a quitter dying at ninety one? Had another

47
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,360
Speaker 4: you had another good ten years.

48
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: The big question they had to decide on was jurisdiction,

49
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: basically whether Texas or California had the right to handle

50
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: this case. And drum roll please, they ruled in my favor.

51
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: That's right, California got that suristiction. Baby, let's talk about it.

52
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 3: That checks.

53
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: Let's talk about it.

54
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 1: So this doesn't mean the fight is over, but it

55
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: is a huge win for me. After so many losses

56
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: and setbacks, to finally having a victory, especially at this level,

57
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: is such a relief. I can't even put into words

58
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 1: how much this means for me. For the first time

59
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 1: in a long time, it feels like there's a glimmer

60
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 1: of hope that.

61
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 2: This nightmare might actually end one day.

62
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: I know there's still a long word ahead, and Pierce's

63
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 1: team isn't going to back down without a fight, but

64
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 1: for now I'm celebrating this win. Thank you all for

00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: sticking with me through this. Your support means more than

66
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: you know, and it keeps me going on these hard days.

67
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: I'll update you as soon as I have something to share.

68
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 4: If I'm Pierce, and I'm not like a huge like

69
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 4: butt head piece of crap. I'm just like, you know,

Speaker 4: whether or not you actually love my dad or not

76
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 4: at this point really doesn't matter, because he enjoyed all

77
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 4: the time that he spent with you. Bingo, So do

78
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 4: you what do you want? Seventy five mili? You're not

79
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 4: getting everything?

80
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I gay you everything.

81
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 4: You're not getting the company. You're not going to be

Speaker 4: the sole propriety of billions of dollars? Yes, what do

00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 4: you need?

84
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 2: What do you want? But do you want to be set?

85
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 1: Do you and your son and like basically generations when

86
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: he'd be set for life, you weren't a few percent

87
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: on seventy five million a year?

88
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 2: You are done? Yeah? Done?

89
00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,920

00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 4: shake hands, be done.

91
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: Or even even Riley said fifty million, right to fifty

92
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 1: If you got just one percent a year, that's half

93
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: a million dollars a year.

94
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, so that's one percent. Just stick that in a

95
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 4: in a something that gives you interest. One percent interest,

96
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 4: that's all too Hey, heck, you know, let's get really crazy.

97
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 4: Two percent interest, a million dollars a year, having money

98
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 4: a million dollars a year, and then you still got

99
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 4: the fifty in the bank.

100
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 3: Easy.

101
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 2: Yep, I'm not mad at a guy.

102
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 4: Why they all say the first millions the hardest, because

103
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 4: once you have a lot of money, you can it

104
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,119
Speaker 4: just starts making more money.

105
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 1: It's just be making more money. But guys, we have

106
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: relevant comments, that's right. I wonder what they say, comment

107
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: Cocter number one, Your case is a tragic example of

108
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: how the media can exploit personal struggles for entertainment. Coming

109
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 1: to number two, A legal fight over your late husband's

110
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,679
Speaker 1: estate was a circus. It highlighted flaws in the legal

111
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: system when dealing with high profile cases, which, let's be

112
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: honest here, there should be Yeah, should it be actually

113
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: illegal to do like media news coverage on.

114
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 2: Active cases side quest? But I think it shouldn't be

115
00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 2: a thing for sure.

116
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that the mass media coverage of like

117
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 4: trials and crimes and all this, it's like.

118
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe after that, Yeah, not during because it's so

119
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,000
Speaker 1: entertaining though, Like it's.

120
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 2: Like this just schlocky, like just slop. We love it.

121
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,920
Speaker 2: We slop. We have some good legal slop. Dude, give

Speaker 4: Pop culture slopin I want that pop culture piggy, give

129
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: We're gonna we're gonna ignore Riley, and we're gonna read

130
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: Update number five, Heartbreak after twenty years?

131
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 3: Oh no, did you break up with you again? She rise?

132
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,239
Speaker 3: Did he become a ghost? He broke your heart again?

133
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 2: Hey everyone, it's been a couple of years since my

134
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: last up, Dake Ectoplasm Baby.

135
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 1: I wasn't sure if I'd ever write again, but I

136
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: figured I owed it to those of you who had

137
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: been following my story. Unfortunately, this isn't the update I

138
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: had been hoping for back in two thousand and six. Pierce,

139
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: remember Howard's son and my main opponent in this endless

140
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 1: legal nightmare passed away.

141
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 2: You think his death.

142
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,679
Speaker 1: Would have brought some closure or at the very least

143
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: an end to the lawsuits, But no, his estate picked

144
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,239
Speaker 1: up right where he left off, and the fight dragged

145
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: on for another five years, which, if you think about it,

146
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: is kind of crazy because imagine you die and then

147
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,000
Speaker 1: an organization on your behalf.

148
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 2: Continues as this protein SESSI ghosted, he did. Nice, Hey,

149
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 2: nice one. That's a good one. It's true, it's true,

150
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:56,159
Speaker 2: it's literally but no way.

151
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 4: She made the funniest joke of the whole stream and

152
00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 4: she wasn't even on it.

153
00:06:59,279 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 2: Dude.

154
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: That's great, dude, But like in all actuality, imagine someone

155
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:07,359
Speaker 1: suing you. They literally just die, and then you have

156
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: a whole like organization built up that just continues. Isn't

157
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: that kind of crazy? That's the American dream. You can

158
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 1: sue people even after.

159
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,559
Speaker 4: The American dream is being to sue people after you've died.

160
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 2: Dude, that's apparently true. Yeah.

161
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: Well, every new year brought new complications, new appeals, and

162
00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 1: of course new headlines. The media never stopped spinning into

163
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: a scandal, turning me into a caricature of a gold

164
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: digger while completely ignoring the truth of my relationship with Howard.

165
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 2: And it was exhausting.

166
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: And here I am now, in twenty eleven, early two

167
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: decades after this began, after callous court hearings, endless legal battles,

168
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: sleepless nights, and the court has ruled against me for good.

169
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 2: I've lost.

170
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: The ruling officially stripped me of strips. The ruling officially

171
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:55,120
Speaker 1: stripped me of any claim to Howard's estate. All the

172
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: promises he made to me, the assurances he gave me

173
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: of taking care of me, have been deemed meaningly in

174
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: the eyes of the law. I can't even begin to

175
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 1: describe how this feels. It wasn't just about the money.

176
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:05,880
Speaker 2: It never was.

177
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: Howard wasn't just my husband, but he was my partner,

178
00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 1: my rock, and the only person who truly believed in

179
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: me when no one else did.

180
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 2: I trusted him with my future and to trust What

181
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: is it? Riley? What is it? Please share with the class.

182
00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 3: Trusted him with my future, but not his? What She

183
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 3: trusted him with her future, but she couldn't trust him

184
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: with his.

185
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: Because he died?

186
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: Yeah?

187
00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 2: What more can you do? Angie's joke was better.

188
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 3: I'm sorry in the room, Okay, cool, I'm just trying.

189
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:35,680
Speaker 3: I'm trying.

190
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: We're all trying. I'm trying. Joke was better than literally anything,

191
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: any comparison to Joy.

192
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: So why are you? Why are you thief in my joy?

193
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 5: Here?

194
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:44,880
Speaker 3: Man?

195
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, you're right. You hit me with my own quote.

196
00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 3: Wait, I'm made their quote first.

197
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: You made that quote first, yep, I put it on

198
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 2: the stream first.

199
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 4: I'm gonna hit you with another quote, liar, liar, pants

200
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 4: on fire.

201
00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: Quote.

202
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 2: I made that Riley Michael Scott. He made that quote,

203
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,920
Speaker 2: Riley Michael Scott. Yeah, that's his quote. Wayne Gretzky, Wayne Gretzky.

204
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 3: Anyways, Sorry, it was funny.

205
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:07,559
Speaker 2: Getting back to it.

206
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: So I trusted with my future and to have that

207
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,559
Speaker 1: trust invalidated by the Court's feels.

208
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,400
Speaker 2: Like a betrayal. I can't put into words.

209
00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: But what hurts me more is what this ruling seems

210
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: to imply that my relationship with Howard wasn't real. It

211
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 1: feels like the court has erased our love, like it

212
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:24,599
Speaker 1: was never legitimate in the first place, and it's devastating.

213
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: The emotional toll of this fight has been staggering. I've

214
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 1: spent nearly twenty years reliving the loss of Howard over

215
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: and over again in courtrooms and in the tabloids. The

216
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: financial toll has been justice crushing. The legal bills have

217
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: been astronomical, and every dollar I earned over the years

218
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: felt like it went straight towards paying lawyers. Because remember,

219
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: she hasn't received this fortune. She's literally doing, probably have crazy.

220
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: She's going against Pierce's billionaire lawyers. So she's like, who,

221
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: I don't even we don't even know how she's making

222
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 1: money right now?

223
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 2: Oh we know books or something?

224
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 3: Books?

225
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, shut up, right, definitely books.

226
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, well she's definitely got her nose in the books, dude.

227
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 3: Yep mm hmmmm hmm.

228
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: She's taking all of that money and just putting it

229
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: towards probably I mean, I would have to guess hundreds

230
00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: of thousands of dollars per year in this battle. I'm

231
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 1: totally guessing. I actually have no idea. I have no idea,

232
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: but I'm just guessing. I mean, the lawyers are expensive.

233
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 2: I have no idea.

234
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 4: I've never they could be like a thousand and two

235
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 4: thousand an hour, but yeah, definitely lots of money.

236
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 2: One thousand and two thousand an hour. You're going to

237
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,679
Speaker 2: Supreme Court. That's definitely hundreds of thousans got gotta it's

238
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 2: gotta be.

239
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 4: It's so there's not the lawyers that we won't We

240
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 4: don't get paid unless we win.

241
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:29,480
Speaker 2: No more.

242
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: Definitely not those lawyers. Those guys are not not helping here.

243
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: Actually maybe who knows. But I've been fighting so hard

244
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 1: for so long, and now it feels like I've lost

245
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: almost everything.

246
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'll pose again.

247
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 1: Right now, I'm just trying to keep it together for

248
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: my daughter thought it was the son of my bad

249
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,599
Speaker 1: She's the reason I keep going even when it feels impossible.

250
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: I want her to know that I fought for what

251
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: I believed in, even when the odds were stacked against me.

252
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Thank you to everyone who supported me through this. Your

253
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 1: kindness is meant more than you could ever know. For now,

254
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: I'm just focusing on getting through this and being there

255
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,760
Speaker 1: for my kid. We have our final update, Wow, the

266
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:32,839

Speaker 3: What was your going? I should say it?

276
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,520
Speaker 1: Imagine spending twenty years fighting legal bolls like that kind

277
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: of a horrible life to live in away in many

278
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: many magnay like this. So hey everyone, if you put

279
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: the camera back on Dakota, bad things will happen.

280
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 2: I've been thinking about whether or not to write this

281
00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,440
Speaker 2: for a while, and I finally decided it's time. This

282
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 2: will be my last update.

283
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 1: After everything has happened. I'm ready to focus on moving

284
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:23,000
Speaker 1: forward and living my life. I wanted to share where

285
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 1: I am now and reflect on the journey that's brought

286
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: me here. When the legal battles finally ended, I was

287
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,240
Speaker 1: left with nothing but memories of my time with Howard.

288
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: The financial strain was overwhelming, but honestly, the emotional toll

289
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 1: cut deeper. Nearly twenty years of my life consumed by

290
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 1: that fight, trying to prove that I love his wheel,

291
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,800
Speaker 1: that Howard's promises to be mattered, and that I wasn't

292
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 1: just a gold digger that tabloids.

293
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 2: Made me out to be. And in the end, You're

294
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,679
Speaker 2: not allowed to click out any more comments. I'm just

295
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:52,560
Speaker 2: shutting down everything.

296
00:12:53,320 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: In the end, I lost op lost way.

297
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 4: Well, you tried your best, and honestly, at what counts,

298
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 4: you know you tried your best.

299
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 2: Throw an r in there.

300
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,360
Speaker 1: The courts ruled against me, and the media turned me

301
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: into a punchline, and the world moved on.

302
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: But I couldn't not completely. How could I?

303
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: Howard wasn't just my husband. He was my rock, safe place,

304
00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: and biggest supporter. Losing him was hard enough, but losing

305
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: the battle to preserve what he fought, what he wanted

306
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: for me was like losing him all over again. These days,

307
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,599
Speaker 1: my focus is on my daughter, daniel Lynn. She's a

308
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:28,439
Speaker 1: light of my life and the reason I keep going.

309
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: Every time I look at her, I'm reminded that no

310
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: court ruling, no scandal, and no public judgment can ever

311
00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: take away what early matters, family love.

312
00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: I wanted to grow up knowing.

313
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 1: Her worth, to believe in herself the way Howard believed

314
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 1: in me. Most importantly, I wanted to see that her

315
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,080
Speaker 1: mom fought for what she believed in, even when the

316
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 1: odds were stacked against her, even when the world didn't understand.

317
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,240
Speaker 1: Raising Daniel Lynn had been my top priority since the

318
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: day she was born.

319
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 2: In many ways, she's my second chance.

320
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: She was just a baby when Howard passed and when

321
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: the legal battles began, so she grew up in the

322
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: shadow of everything that happened. Always tried to shield her

323
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,160
Speaker 1: from the worship it. I don't want her to inherit,

324
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:04,840
Speaker 1: my pain or the judgment that followed.

325
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:05,600
Speaker 2: I want to.

326
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,000
Speaker 1: I want her to carve her own path, re from

327
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,680
Speaker 1: the baggage of the past. She's sixteen now, She's going

328
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,120
Speaker 1: into the most incredible young woman. She's smart, kind and

329
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: full of life. She's passionate about fashion, music, and even acting.

330
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: Sometimes I even see a little glimpse of Howard in her,

331
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 1: the determination in her eyes and the way that she's

332
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: kind to everyone she meets. It's bittersweet because I wish

333
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: Howard could see her now. I wish she could be

334
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: here to watch her grow up. He would be so

335
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: proud of her. We've kept a low profile in recent years,

336
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: and that's been a conscious choice on my part. I

337
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: want Danieln to have as normal a life as possible,

338
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: or as normal as it can be when your mom's

339
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 1: name has been splashed across tabloids for decades. We live

340
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 1: in Kentucky now, far away from the chaos Hollywood. It's

341
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 1: been quiet here and that's exactly what we need. She's

342
00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 1: in school, making friends and enjoying the kind of childhood

343
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: I always wanted for her, a childhood free from the

344
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: public eye. As for Howard's family, I honestly don't know

345
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 1: much about what they're doing now, and I don't care

346
00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 1: to know. Pierce's death in two thousand and six brought

347
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: some closures to legal battles, but it didn't erase the

348
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,240
Speaker 1: bitterness that is the state care on after him for years.

349
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: It feels like his family's sole mission was to erase

350
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 1: me from Howard's life, to deny that our marriage had

351
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: any legitimacy. It was cruel and it's not something I

352
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: can easily forgive. That being said, I don't hold on

353
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: to hatred. Life is too short for that, and I

354
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,040
Speaker 1: have more important things to focus on. I think about

355
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 1: Howard's family less and less these days. When I do,

356
00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,120
Speaker 1: it's mostly with a sense of pity. They had every

357
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: opportunity to honor Howard's memory and to respect his wishes

358
00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: and to acknowledge the life we had together.

359
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 2: Instead, they chose to fight me at.

360
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: Every turn and make my life harder than it needed

361
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 1: to be. I can't change what they did, but I

362
00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:36,160
Speaker 1: can choose to not let it define me. You go, girl,

363
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, that's what I'm.

364
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 4: Talking though, girl, And we're definitely not talking about you

365
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 4: in the context of just this story now that.

366
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:45,680
Speaker 2: You're being remembered for.

367
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 4: Remember right, She's like, I'm not gonna let this be

368
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 4: the thing that defines my life. Meanwhile, we're reading it

369
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 4: because it's the thing that defined your life.

370
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 2: Sorry, girl, we still support you.

371
00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 6: It's pretty ironic, but it is. That's what happened. But yeah,

372
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 6: I mean, she's like, you don't have a choice. Rebuilding

373
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 6: my life after the legal battles has been a challenge,

374
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 6: to say the least. Losing the court case didn't just

375
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,760
Speaker 6: strip me offn he claimed to Howard's estate, It left

376
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 6: me with staggering legal debts and very little too foul

377
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 6: back on. The financial toll was immense. I had to

378
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 6: start over from scratch. But starting over isn't new to me.

379
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: I've been doing it all my life, for being a

380
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: struggling single mom to building a modeling career. If there's

381
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: one thing I know how to do, it survive. In

382
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: the years since the battles have ended, I focused on

383
00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 1: creating a stable life for Danieln and me, and I've

384
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: taken on smaller projects here and there, modeling gigs, guest appearances,

385
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: but for the most part, I've stepped away from his spotlight.

386
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: Fame is a double edged sword, and after everything I've.

387
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,760
Speaker 2: Been through, I'd rather live a quieter life.

388
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 1: I would trade red carpets for parent Teacher Association meetings

389
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: and soccer games, and honestly, I wouldn't have it any

390
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 1: other way. One thing that still weighs on me is

391
00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: how the world remembers Howard.

392
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 2: To me, he was so.

393
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 1: Much more than a billionaire oil tycoon the media loved

394
00:16:57,360 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 1: to talk about.

395
00:16:58,120 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: He was kind, funny, and full of wisdom.

396
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, this incredible way of making you feel like he

397
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: like the most important person in the room. He believed

398
00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: to me when no one else did. Howard changed my life,

399
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 1: not just my supporting me financially, but by showing me

400
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: I was worth something. That's the legacy I hold on

401
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 1: to the Howard I knew, not the Howard that tabloids

402
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: wrote about. It breaks my heart that his family fought

403
00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:18,439
Speaker 1: so hard to erase our relationship, to deny what we

404
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 1: meant to each other. But no matter what they say,

405
00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: they can't change the truth. Howard and I shared something real,

406
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,359
Speaker 1: and I'll carry that with me for the rest of

407
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,400
Speaker 1: my life. Is love gave me the strength to keep

408
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 1: going even when the world turned against me, and that's

409
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: a gift no one could take away. God damn it.

410
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,359
Speaker 1: Dry like today, a focus on living in that moment.

411
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 1: The legal battles are behind me, and while the pain

412
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 1: of those years haven't entirely faded, I have found peace

413
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: in the life that I've built with daniel Lynn. We

414
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,919
Speaker 1: have a home, a routine, a sense of stability that

415
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: I didn't think was possible during all the chaos. I've

416
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: also found joined the little things, cooking dinner, watching movies

417
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 1: with Daniel Lynn, spending time with close friends. Life may

418
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,960
Speaker 1: not look the way I imagined it would when I

419
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 1: first married Howard. But it's good in its own way.

420
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,359
Speaker 1: I've learned to appreciate what I have instead of dwelling

421
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: on what I've lost. And that's not to say that

422
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 1: it's always easy. There are still days where the memories

423
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: come rushing back when I think about Howard and what

424
00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:11,200
Speaker 1: could have been. But these days our few and farther

425
00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: in between. Time as a way of softening even the

426
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 1: sharpest edges of pain, and for that I'm grateful. This

427
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 1: journey has been a long, painful and exhausting one, but

428
00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,239
Speaker 1: it's taught me so much about love, resilience, and what

429
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 1: it means to fight for what you believe in QuickTime

430
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: check early. I'm proud of the woman I have become,

431
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 1: even if the world doesn't see me the way I

432
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,919
Speaker 1: see myself. Thank you to everyone who followed my story,

433
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:35,719
Speaker 1: offered kind words, or simply believed in me when it

434
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: felt like no one else did.

435
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 2: Your support meant to me more than you'll ever know.

436
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 2: I don't know what the.

437
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: Future holds, but I know I'll face it with the

438
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 1: same strength and determination that's carried me through the past

439
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,679
Speaker 1: two decades. By the way, if you want us to

440
00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,440

Speaker 2: Yeah, and have a good time. Just tap it. Speaking

444
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 2: of joining the family, I don't know why I just

445
00:18:58,520 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 2: said that, but speaking.

446
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 4: Of joining the family, I'm going to go marry her

447
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 4: dead husband. Who going to the cemetery? I'm getting married?

448
00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah.

449
00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: I actually have a legitimately real question for both of you. Yes, yes,

450
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: you're anna. This is right after he passes. You don't

451
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: have the inheritance you have, like some of the assets

452
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: and stuff that he's given you throughout the time of

453
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 1: the relationship. Trying to forget all.

454
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 4: Of Riley with that funny stuff.

455
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: I had a serious question, would you this is like

456
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 1: more of a tactical question than anything.

457
00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 2: Would you pursue the legal battle? Riley? You're not allowed

458
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:36,640
Speaker 2: to click anymore, colms what you mean? Of course I'm

459
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,520
Speaker 2: pursuing the legal battle. Of course I am.

460
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: You're not afraid of the other lawyers and and how

461
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,199
Speaker 1: it looks the as are terrible.

462
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 4: The thing is is, no, I'm not scared because the

463
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,439
Speaker 4: upside is too high, and it's like I was married

464
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:49,240
Speaker 4: to him I don't know.

465
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 2: I'm of course I'm fighting the battle.

466
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 4: I'm not fighting it for like sole control of like

467
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 4: the entire like family fortune, but I'm fighting it until

468
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 4: I get paid. If look, if I had a legitimate

469
00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 4: relationship with his and he was like, I want to

470
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 4: make sure after I die, because I'm not a fool.

471
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 4: I know I'm ninety one and I'm not going to

472
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 4: live forever. When I die, I want you to be

473
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 4: taken care of. I want you to be able to

474
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 4: live without any worries in the or care in the world.

475
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,040
Speaker 2: And if you meant that, I would want it to

476
00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:17,119
Speaker 2: be made good on.

477
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, but it's so hard for verbal agreement if

478
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,080
Speaker 3: like nobody else was around.

479
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: She said they had people to cooborate that, but like

480
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 1: they didn't want to get dragged into the tabloid.

481
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: Right French right, Yeah, so that was.

482
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 4: Kind of a they weaponized the media to prevent anyone

483
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,360
Speaker 4: else that would have wanted to come forward and help

484
00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 4: her from doing so.

485
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: And probably there's already such a great legal case against Anna,

486
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: but like they could just be like, why didn't he

487
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: put it in writing? Then?

488
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? True, right, why didn't he say.

489
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 1: Like he's he's not an idiot, like he's built a

490
00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: billion dollar oil empire, Like, why did he just put

491
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: it in the will?

492
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:51,639
Speaker 2: If it was well, he might have.

493
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 4: I think they were arguing that he wasn't in his

494
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 4: right mind. Oh the way that you can get that

495
00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:57,120
Speaker 4: to be undone?

496
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, so he was hypnotized.

497
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,680
Speaker 4: Also, what I find interesting is I saw some comments

498
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 4: that were saying that, I mean, clearly, this isn't the

499
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 4: real story. This is a fictionalized reason ending of it

500
00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 4: is not the same because she died of she odeed, Well,

501
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 4: this isn't up to that, this is me. I think

502
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 4: this is her. Well, she wasn't in her daughter's life

503
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 4: when she was sixteen. I don't think I think she

504
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 4: died before that, am I right? Chat chat a Zuri

505
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 4: from Missouri said something about it. Some other people were

506
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 4: saying that this is not a real ending. We will

507
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 4: figure it out. What we will figure it out?

508
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: All right? Why are you look at me like that'd

509
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 2: be pro.

510
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: But why don't we close out the story, ladies and gentlemen.

511
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 1: So for now I'm signing off to focus on my

512
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,480
Speaker 1: family and the quiet, simple life we've built. Howard used

513
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: to call me his lady love and I think about

514
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: that often, even though he's gone. Those words remind me

515
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 1: of who I am and what I'm capable of. They

516
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 1: remind me that I'm more than the headlines, the court

517
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 1: rulings or the mistakes I've made. I'm a survivor and

518
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:54,000
Speaker 1: I'm proud of that. The world might never understand the

519
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 1: love Howard and I share, but that's okay. I don't

520
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: need their approval, and I know the truth and so

521
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: did Howard. At the end of the day, that's enough,

522
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:04,000
Speaker 1: goodbye and thank you again for everything.

523
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of beautiful, though there is something

524
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 2: to be said in there's this.

525
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 4: She wasn't making Reddit posts like yes, yes, it's kind

526
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 4: of art.

527
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I thought I thought we were on top

528
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 2: of that.

529
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 1: It's a fictionalized retelling of the story, as as will

530
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 1: be shown in the description of the video, but it

531
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 1: chronicles the major beats.

532
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 2: Of the story that she went through. Yes, but with

533
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 2: a better ending.

534
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,680
Speaker 3: Is that it would just talk about it as if

535
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 3: it was like, you know, I read a story.

536
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 2: Okay, so you guys I made it.

537
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:39,920
Speaker 5: Oopsie.

538
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 1: To close out any final words again, again, I will

539
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 1: say again, kind of an insane life to be Okay,

540
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,399
Speaker 1: married to this guy for like what a few years?

541
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:50,120
Speaker 2: Then he dies.

542
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: Then you spend basically your entire lifetime after that suing

543
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: to try and get his estate and just being dragged

544
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: through the mud for twenty years.

545
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,200
Speaker 2: In a way, a hard life to live.

546
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,600
Speaker 4: The hustle never stops, though the hustle never start. That hustle,

547
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 4: The hustle never stops.

548
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: We might get some commentary from one man who's been

549
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: through a similar situation. Ladies and gentlemen, we're just gonna

550
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: have a quick closing word from our good friend who

551

Speaker 2: And see it amorrow.

563
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 5: This is an episode from Deep Within the Archives.

564
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 1: Time for okop Rewlam. I won four hundred and eighty

565
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: thousand lottery years ago. I never told my husband, but

566
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 1: he just found out.

567
00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 5: That is a huge secret.

568
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 4: You know.

569
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 5: It's like you won the lottery, and then your husband

570
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 5: may have won the lottery like years later by realizing

571
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 5: you won the lottery. But then he's actually like, oh,

572
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 5: maybe she's hiding something from me, So maybe I also

573
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,120
Speaker 5: lost the lottery, and that she's gonna like maybe break

574
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,239
Speaker 5: up with me and try to take the money and

575
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 5: not give any to me, and we're going to be

576
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 5: have separate finances, and I'm screwed.

577
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,159
Speaker 2: I think the story's over. I think yes, she's predicted

578
00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: the whole thing.

579
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: So the lottery winning took place back in August of

580
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. Mike and I were married in October of

581
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,360
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. It wasn't a fortune, but enough to make

582
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 1: a difference.

583
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 5: So she basically had all that money before they officially

584
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 5: got married. So technically it is completely hers three.

585
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: Months, three months by three measly months ninety days.

586
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,239
Speaker 5: Ladies and gentlemen, well that's not really how marriage works, right, Like,

587
00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:02,159
Speaker 5: when you get married, she would aren't you are?

588
00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: You're not joined only if you put it in a

589
00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,120
Speaker 1: joint account. Really you're not legally obligated to exactly. If

590
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: you get divorced, then the assets are probably split equally.

591
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,840
Speaker 2: But as you're married, you can pick and choose where.

592
00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 2: You know.

593
00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, after taxes, it came out to right around four

594
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: hundred and eighty thousand dollars. I would say that's fair

595
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: to call a fortune.

596
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:29,120
Speaker 5: It's pretty good.

597
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,440
Speaker 1: It's not you can't live, you can't retat, you can't

598
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: live the rest of your life.

599
00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 2: One hundred almost.

600
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: If you do invest in an invex fund four to

601
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 1: four percent withdrawal a year, you probably get like twenty

602
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,359
Speaker 1: five grand a month or year a year. So that's

603
00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 1: not you know, that's not ball. You're living, Yeah, you're

604
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 1: you're paying rent and food. Now most people would be

605
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:02,239
Speaker 1: over the moon, but I payanicked because I didn't want

606
00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: our life to turn upside down because we had extra money.

607
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,360
Speaker 5: Now I feel like that's upside up man, Like.

608
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: I think, I think, uh, have the craziest, dopest honeymoon

609
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,920
Speaker 1: ever with your with your honey live it up, invest

610
00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: not have to work like because think about like who

611
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 1: knows what We'll see what the rest of the story says.

612
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 1: But what if you're like, oh, I have to keep

613
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,639
Speaker 1: pretending to work by low paying jobs so he doesn't

614
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 1: find out.

615
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:29,199
Speaker 5: Like, also, that's a big secret to start your marriage with.

616
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:34,560
Speaker 5: That's a crazy Yeah. I feel like she didn't, like, honey,

617
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,199
Speaker 5: I just won the lottery, Like, it's surprising that she

618
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 5: would keep that from her. It's kind of a lot, right,

619
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 5: it's a lot, kind of a lot. I was still

620
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 5: legally single at the time, and so I was able

621
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 5: to accept it anonymously without the need to tell anyone else.

622
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 5: So I didn't, which is all but to be fair

623
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:57,360
Speaker 5: to her. A lot of times in like a lot

624
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,720
Speaker 5: of times in lottery advice they say, don't tell a

625
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 5: soul that you've won, ah, because everyone and their mother

626
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:04,359
Speaker 5: is going to be after that.

627
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, cut true that that is a fair point. That

628
00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 1: and you tell one person and even your even your husband,

629
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:14,520
Speaker 1: could could get out for sure. So I didn't tell

630
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: anybody else, not a single soul, not my husband, not

631
00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: my parents, siblings, best friends, et cetera, et cetera, only

632
00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 1: the state and federal governments. Now, my husband has a

633
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,560
Speaker 1: tendency to spin on things we don't need and that

634
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: aren't going to benefit us in the long run.

635
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,000
Speaker 5: So the husband's an over spender.

636
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: So I didn't want our money to be blown quickly

637
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 1: on stupid stuff like cars and clothes. I opened up

638
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 1: a bank account with a national credit Union and put

639
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: the check in it. I got started with a financial advisor, Keith,

640
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 1: who guided me into investing in local businesses in real estate.

641
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 1: Pretty good move, I mean, safe move, Way better than

642
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: blowing it on.

643
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 2: You know.

644
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:00,720
Speaker 1: I feel like the typical lottery equitter story, and that

645
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: is that it's been sitting there, just growing. Flash forward

646
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: to today. I'm doing dishes, getting ready to start making dinner,

647
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 1: and my phone rings. I can't get to it, but

648
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 1: I figure i'll call him back. Then I get a text.

649
00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 1: No big deal, I'll get to it in a minute.

650
00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:17,959
Speaker 1: But my husband came into the kitchen and glanced at

651
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: my phone to let me know who texted and called me,

652
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: which he always does when my hands are full.

653
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 2: It's Keith.

654
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 1: He called and texted me to let me know that

655
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 1: my account just hit one million dollars after one of

656
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:37,120
Speaker 1: the energy companies I invested in soared up. My god,

657
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: Oh Pie's a millionaires. Oh Pie's a millionaire now from

658
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: four hundred and eighty. I mean, that's great investing that's

659
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,480
Speaker 1: and I'm guessing this is a few years.

660
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 5: Wow.

661
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 2: To double it in a few years is that's really good?

662
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 2: That's good.

663
00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 5: I want Keith as my financial advisor.

664
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 1: Joe, Keith hit our line, bro, We're we're about to

665
00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: reinvest all of our revenue with you. My husband is stunned.

666
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: He has no clue what to even say, staring at

667
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,960
Speaker 1: me until he says, we have a million.

668
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 5: Dollars, which is the appropriate question. I guess, I guess

669
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 5: I'm money. I have a million dollars. You have a jackshit?

670
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: Tell him it's in my bank account. This is my

671
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: Keith gets your own.

672
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 5: Yeah.

673
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 1: I was so flushed, but I finally just sat him

674
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,440
Speaker 1: down and explained the situation. He's clearly mad at me

675
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,680
Speaker 1: for never telling him. He asked if my family knows,

676
00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,160
Speaker 1: and I tell him that no one knows except for

677
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,880
Speaker 1: the I R S and Keith. Imagine the plot twist.

678
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 1: She falls in love with Keith.

679
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, Keith, you manage my money so well?

680
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 5: Well, I love how Maybe you could manage me the

681
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 5: titties right here, But.

682
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: My portfolio is the isn't the only thing you can grow?

683
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 2: Can Keith?

684
00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 5: Yeah? Maybe I can grow your portfolio seems like it

685
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:02,440
Speaker 5: needs some stimulation.

686
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: That stock is on the rise, my friend, so it

687
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: took him a few hours to finally be able to

688
00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,440
Speaker 1: really talk to me. At the end of the silence,

689
00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,200
Speaker 1: he told me that he's proud of me for investing

690
00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 1: it into our future, but he needs a few days

691
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 1: to clear his head because he feels like I hid

692
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 1: a huge part of myself from him. True, we might

693
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: just need to take a vacation now. Uh, there's some edits,

694
00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,040
Speaker 1: there's some updates. Okay, Gang, I'm checking in with you.

695
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: What would you have would you have told the partner

696
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 1: or no? Tell us debate? Let's discuss sam.

697
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 5: Okay, Okay. There's a lot of complication here because like

698
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 5: rule one of winning the lottery is don't tell anyone,

699
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:49,880
Speaker 5: but also one of the rules of having a marriage

700
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 5: is probably like communication secrets in communication.

701
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: So there's great principles completely conflicating.

702
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 5: And also based on like like Opie's husband's financial track record,

703
00:31:04,200 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 5: it seems like he hasn't been the best, so.

704
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: Man, maybe the best move would be have been to

705
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: sit him down and say I just won four hundred

706
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: and eighty grand I did win it. It does legally

707
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 1: belong to me. This is what I want to do

708
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,560
Speaker 1: with it. Yeah, this is and just be upfront and.

709
00:31:21,560 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 5: Say, hey, I don't want you to tell anyone. I

710
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 5: want to be able. I want to be the one

711
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,600
Speaker 5: that manages it, and I do not want to pull

712
00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 5: from it. Yes, I want this money to be from

713
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:32,880
Speaker 5: our I want this money to be for our future.

714
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 2: Yes.

715
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 5: Yeah. So maybe op's a little of the a hole

716
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:41,320
Speaker 5: for not for not letting her husband know.

717
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

718
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 5: I think the husband's taking it pretty well for all

719
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,440
Speaker 5: things considered decently. Well, yeah, I mean, but I mean

720
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 5: it's a pretty easy thing to take well that you

721
00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 5: just have a million dollars. Yeah, it's not like, oh honey,

722
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 5: we're a million dollars.

723
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: In debt, which that's a loss. Yeah.

724
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I would say, I would say, oh, he's

725
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 5: a little the a hole little the little a little.

726
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 2: Well, you know what, we'll give our final verdict at

727
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 2: the end. Let's do that. Quick edit.

728
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,480
Speaker 1: I already have people messaging me asking if they could

729
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: have the money. Jesus, this is why I didn't tell anyone.

730
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 2: That's funny.

731
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 5: Classic.

732
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: Okay, we got a few updates. Update number one. My

733
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: husband and I just spoke on the phone for about

734
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: an hour. He's told me he's staying with his best

735
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 1: friend slash coworker tonight, but that he's not angry. He

736
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 1: agreed that he would have spent the money on dub

737
00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: things if he had won it, and he's happy that

738
00:32:33,680 --> 00:32:36,080
Speaker 1: I did put it away. A little less happy that

739
00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: I didn't tell him about it for so long, but

740
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,440
Speaker 1: he said he doesn't care and doesn't want it to

741
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: get in the way of our marriage.

742
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 5: So good.

743
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:42,840
Speaker 2: That's good.

744
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 1: Update number two, Hello, I did not know this to

745
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: blow up so much. I've been at work talking to

746
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 1: my husband Mike all day, basically laying down some ground

747
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:56,200
Speaker 1: rules for the money moving forward. He will not tell anyone,

748
00:32:56,800 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 1: didn't even tell his friend, and we will only dip

749
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: into it for emergencies and pre discussed things. A few

750
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,600
Speaker 1: people asked in the comments how much we make a year.

751
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 1: I guess to see where we'd be without the money.

752
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 1: I currently make around sixty K. Mike makes more at

753
00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: around eighty five K. So all the ones saying that

754
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:20,280
Speaker 1: I starved him or made him scrounge, that's not true.

755
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 2: That's funny. We make a good amount.

756
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,360
Speaker 1: Okay, we've heard the full story we've seen the kind

757
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: of aftermath of discussion. What do you all again, I

758
00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: would probably pose the same question, what would you all

759
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,720
Speaker 1: have done in Op's shoes when receiving the money? And

760
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 1: do you think that Op was the a hole or

761
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: not for not telling? I stand by my initial thing.

762
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,800
Speaker 1: I think Op's a little that the a hole for

763
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,320
Speaker 1: not telling. Initially, I think a husband is taking it

764
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,480
Speaker 1: extremely well, and I think Op is doing everything right. Afterwards,

765
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 1: think she's doing the best for their financial position.

766
00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 2: That's a thing.

767
00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:00,000
Speaker 1: So she I absolutely think she made the absolute best

768
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:03,720
Speaker 1: financial decision in in uh, you know.

769
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 2: Putting away for the future.

770
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,840
Speaker 1: Also to her credit, you know, it would it could

771
00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 1: be very easy to start like getting into stocks and

772
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 1: other things which could be fine but definitely still risky,

773
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,920
Speaker 1: like still could potentially bring the money down. She was like,

774
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: I want this money to grow, even if it's not fast,

775
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,560
Speaker 1: which is a very disciplined decision. But yeah, in hindsight,

776
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: kind of like listening to the story, it feels like

777
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,160
Speaker 1: it probably would have been better to sit down and

778
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,440
Speaker 1: tell him about the money.

779
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:33,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, agreed, agreed, you said you said not the a hole.

780
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,200
Speaker 5: I said a little the ahole A little for not

781
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 5: telling you.

782
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go a little the a hole too.

783
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, a little the a hole. But like the minorly

784
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:46,239
Speaker 5: minor minor. Today, I fked up by disappointing a man

785
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 5: who wanted to be laid by the maid.

786
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:53,640
Speaker 2: Okop, oh, poor guy. He didn't get what he wanted.

787
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:55,280
Speaker 2: So tragic.

788
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 5: It sounds like a regular Arnold Schwarzenegger. You know, do

789
00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 5: you know about the back story of that?

790
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 1: I know he got he did the hanky panky with

791
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:04,440
Speaker 1: one of his maids.

792
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he has a son.

793
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,560
Speaker 1: Imagine, dude, that kid must feel I feel so badcheck

794
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 1: why unless he gets cut a fat check?

795
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 5: He gets cut of fat check, bro, and it's still

796
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,759
Speaker 5: Arnold's son and he's got that bodybiller genetics.

797
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 1: Would you take a being fostered by an illegitimate father

798
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 1: for money and a beautiful body?

799
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 5: I feel like Arnold was a good good father.

800
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,719
Speaker 2: I have no idea. I'll leave it up to uh

801
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:28,080
Speaker 2: whatever happened.

802
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,759
Speaker 5: He was in the movies. In the movies, he was

803
00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,879
Speaker 5: a good father. Sometimes that's how you know, that's how

804
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:36,360
Speaker 5: you know. Yeah, they don't why in the movies. Obviously,

805
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 5: I'm a professional house cleaner in a large City. My

806
00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:43,280
Speaker 5: first house today was a beautiful, pretty big, four thousand

807
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,880
Speaker 5: square foot place. I had never cleaned this house before today,

808
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 5: first time. It's kind of interesting to clean the home

809
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 5: of people you've never actually met while they're not home.

810
00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:54,640
Speaker 5: I never snoop, but I do learn a lot just

811
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,439
Speaker 5: by the state of their house or whatever is out.

812
00:35:56,520 --> 00:36:00,759
Speaker 5: These people seem like they really needed it as it

813
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 5: was freaking darty as.

814
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 2: He oh made throwing down.

815
00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:07,319
Speaker 5: I would guess they are busy and don't have much

816
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 5: time for cleaning and organizing, but definitely have an act

817
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 5: of sex life judging by the master bedroom. Oh yeah,

818
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 5: what was it? The master bedroom. I'm imagining like like

819
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:18,919
Speaker 5: chains and stuff and.

820
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,680
Speaker 2: Just stains all over the all over.

821
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 5: Turns off the black light and it just it just blink.

822
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: It's like Quagmire and he like turns it on. It's

823
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 1: like the couch flips and it's a bed and there's

824
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,279
Speaker 1: a disco ball and candles and like.

825
00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 5: And like the bed rotates like at Austin Powers. Yeah,

826
00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:37,800
Speaker 5: ruvy baby. I love cleaning houses and was amping myself

827
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:40,560
Speaker 5: up to do a mini Rocky training montage warm up

828
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 5: and finding the perfect music to work to Pantera for

829
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:54,360
Speaker 5: all those asking and then it's like bear, I was

830
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 5: sweating like four hours in, but I was getting this

831
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 5: house spark coloring. All I had left was to clean

832
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 5: the floors. When a man walks in, Oh, a man

833
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 5: with a plan. If you know what, I'm sorry, Bro,

834
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 5: you can kind of rhyme man with sitan like like

835
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 5: like I was with the man. If you know what

836
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,240
Speaker 5: I'm sighting, that's true. I welcomed him home. Hello, master,

837
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,080
Speaker 5: she said. I welcomed him home and let him know

838
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 5: I just cleaned the floors and would be finished soon.

839
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,759
Speaker 5: He looked super confused, and then kind of grinned and

840
00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 5: asked if I was his birthday gift?

841
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 1: Bound Wow, yeah, these these mops is your birthday gift?

842
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:38,399
Speaker 5: Yeah?

843
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 3: Floor?

844
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,959
Speaker 5: How about you clean your own floor? I didn't really

845
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 5: know what he meant. Maybe his wife scheduled the service

846
00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:49,279
Speaker 5: on his birthday. I just answered him with maybe, happy birthday,

847
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 5: mister Hendrix. I don't think she said it like that,

848
00:37:54,520 --> 00:38:00,879
Speaker 5: Happy birthday, mister present. Have you ever watched the Aaron

849
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,640
Speaker 5: Linroe singing to.

850
00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:04,280
Speaker 2: I've only heard it imitated.

851
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:04,839
Speaker 5: Took it out.

852
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:06,880
Speaker 2: It's it's interesting, heavy sexual tension.

853
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,640
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, you can, you can taste the sexual tension

854
00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:11,799
Speaker 5: in the air. It was like awkward forever. Like that

855
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 5: was like like an official president's meeting, and everyone's just

856
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 5: like real like knowing and realizing like JFK and Marilyn

857
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 5: are definitely the wind something awkward. So op, he says,

858
00:38:22,080 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 5: happy birthday, mister Henrix, to which he looked even more

859
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:28,319
Speaker 5: confused and told me his name was not mister Henrix. Well,

860
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,239
Speaker 5: that's because his next door neighbor, my actual client is

861
00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:35,600
Speaker 5: mister Henrix. And I walk my happy booty into the

862
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:39,319
Speaker 5: wrong efft house and clean the living hell out of it.

863
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 5: And then the guy who lived there came home and

864
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 5: thought I was a sex worker role playing as a

865
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 5: house cleaner, hired by his wife as his special little

866
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:47,440
Speaker 5: birthday present.

867
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:48,080
Speaker 2: Wow.

868
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 5: I mean his wife and must have a pretty good

869
00:38:50,760 --> 00:38:54,319
Speaker 5: relationship if that's what he thought initially just hanging man,

870
00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,480
Speaker 5: I mean he probably has a very judging by the

871
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 5: master bedroom, as the maid said, having a very healthy

872
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:04,839
Speaker 5: sex life. I was totally embarrassed explaining myself to this

873
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,160
Speaker 5: guy my boss. The entry instructions in the app said

874
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 5: the client wouldn't be home, but that there was a

875
00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 5: key end of the map. There was no key into

876
00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:11,840
Speaker 5: the map, but the front door was unlocked, so I

877
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 5: just walked in. This is not even the first time

878
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:16,560
Speaker 5: in my life that I've let myself into the wrong house,

879
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 5: although the first time was not a work thing, and

880
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,640
Speaker 5: this one was. On the plus side. Dude was so

881
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,520
Speaker 5: happy with how clean his house was that I finished

882
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:26,839
Speaker 5: the floors and he paid me what my company would

883
00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,920
Speaker 5: have charged him, plus a tip.

884
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,080
Speaker 2: Let's go new clients abound.

885
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 5: Wow, that's how you do it. Just break into someone's house,

Speaker 5: clean it and be like, oh, sorry, wrong house. Like

890
00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:49,320
Speaker 5: actually John there's a service in Woodland Hills, like my hometown,

891
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 5: called like Busty Maids. It's literally what they're describing. It's
