But does this mean I have 587 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 7: to change my home loan to an investment loan? They 588 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 7: often have high interest rates. I plan on returning to 589 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 7: the property and living it and again in one to 590 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 7: two years. Just wasn't really sure if I have to 591 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 7: tell my bank if I rent out my property for 592 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:38,720 Speaker 7: a short time. 593 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 2: Thanks, I'm going to be so for real. 594 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 5: I didn't even know that investor loans were a thing, 595 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 5: much less what the difference is or what you do 596 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 5: with them. 597 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 2: So to handle this one straight. 598 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 3: To it, Well, Jess, you wouldn't know that because the 599 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 3: process that you're going through, and when you sat down 600 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: with one of the Zella money brokers, they would have 601 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 3: said what do you want and you said, I want 602 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 3: to purchase my own home, and they would have said, 603 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 3: do you plan a living in the property, and you 604 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 3: would have said, absolutely, I do. 605 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:05,720 Speaker 4: I'm very excited. 606 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 3: So they would have gone down the root of what's 607 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 3: called an owner occupy a loan, and those usually carry 608 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 3: lower interest rates than an investment property loan. And there's 609 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,120 Speaker 3: a number of different reasons for this. Obviously, the risk 610 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 3: is higher when it's an investment because it's not your 611 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 3: family home, more likely to be like damaged or whatnot. 612 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 3: But then also you're able to claim an investment on 613 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 3: tasks of course, right, so the bankers, I won't say 614 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 3: they're taking advantage, but like, I don't like that they're different, 615 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,680 Speaker 3: but they are very different. In fact, there's been a 616 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:37,399 Speaker 3: few times, and this is why you have to be 617 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 3: really honest with your broker when you know a broker 618 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 3: has been applying for an owner OC loan, so they've 619 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 3: been applying for the loan where you're going to live 620 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,160 Speaker 3: in the property, and then the client's like, yeah, yeah, 621 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 3: I'm going to rent it out, and their broker's like, ah, 622 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 3: I can't legally sign you up to this, because once 623 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 3: your broker knows some information, they can't not do anything. 624 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: About it, like we are you know, at the end 625 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:05,440 Speaker 3: of the day, ethical and moral and like we can't 626 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 3: lie on your behalf to a bank, like we don't 627 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 3: want to lose our license even if you're like, but 628 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,399 Speaker 3: I just want the only OK loan because it'll be 629 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,200 Speaker 3: lower interest rate, Like I get that, But also the 630 00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 3: investment is what lines you up? So too long didn't read. Yes, 631 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 3: you do need to tell your bank that you're moving. 632 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 3: It's actually in your terms and conditions of the line 633 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 3: that you have with your bank. Yeah, there are a 634 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 3: heap of them. So when you sign up, you'll get 635 00:27:26,560 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 3: all your banking docs and in that it will say 636 00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,239 Speaker 3: if you move, you need to tell us. Also, did 637 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 3: you know you need to tell your bank if you're renovating. 638 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 4: Really, yeah, you need to tell your bank. 639 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 3: But like they technically own your property, Jess, Like they're 640 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 3: the ones that have looked at your property and gone, hey, Jess, 641 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 3: we are going to lend some money to you to 642 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 3: purchase this particular property and they're putting a security over 643 00:27:50,080 --> 00:27:53,840 Speaker 3: that property that if hypothetically Jess wasn't funny anymore and 644 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 3: she left, she's on the money and she lost a job. 645 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: Like they could sell the property and make their money. 646 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 3: But if you bulldoze the bloody house, yeah it's worthless. 647 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 3: So they don't want you to do that without approval. 648 00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,200 Speaker 3: So this is where reading your terms and conditions is 649 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 3: really important because it will say in your terms and 650 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 3: conditions that you need to keep the bank aware of 651 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 3: this any changes. Even if you go, oh, it's only 652 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 3: small and just redoing the bathrooms, bank needs to note 653 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 3: they're not going to care that much. But also it'll 654 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 3: probably add to the value, so it's not a bad thing. 655 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,320 Speaker 3: But if you're moving out, you do need to talk 656 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:28,560 Speaker 3: to somebody. 657 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 2: I have heard. 658 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 3: Stories is because I like live on oz finance on 659 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 3: Reddit where someone was literally dabbed in by a friend 660 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 3: to their bank. 661 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 2: Isn't the dodge that's so many? 662 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 4: Exactly so bad? 663 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,640 Speaker 3: They were dubbed in by their friend who called the 664 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,720 Speaker 3: bank and said, did you know that Jess has moved 665 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 3: out of the property and is no longer owner? Ok, 666 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 3: and the bank just changed their loan without any conversation, 667 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 3: without any permission, up to a higher interest rate and 668 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 3: moved them over to an investment loan as opposed to 669 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 3: an owner OK loan, And like I was like, through. 670 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 6: Do they didn't even check to make sure this is mine. 671 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 3: I know. Anyway, I just thought that's obviously one dog 672 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:09,920 Speaker 3: of your friend to tell you in that is not 673 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 3: a friend indeed. But also I didn't realize that they 674 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 3: took it as seriously, Whereas we've dealt with clients who 675 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 3: are like, oh, V, because obviously I own a mortgage 676 00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 3: breaking company r V, We're going to move out of 677 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 3: the property and do X Y Z, and it's fine. 678 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 3: We've called the bank on their behalf, and some banks 679 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 3: are like, oh, what's their plan. Oh, they're moving back 680 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 3: in in six months. They're just moving. The bank's like, 681 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 3: don't worry, we've put it on file. They're not going 682 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 3: to change it because they're going to be moving back in. 683 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 3: But it's a conversation to have with your your lender, 684 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,120 Speaker 3: because at the end of the day, it's all about risk. 685 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 3: It's all about making sure that you're doing the right thing. 686 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 3: And they could actually be like, hey, we're no longer 687 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 3: going to lend. 688 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 2: To you, so you need to sell up the property. 689 00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 3: Oh scary really what they found out. If they found out, 690 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 3: they could absolutely take action. At the end of the day, 691 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 3: if you're renting out your home while paying it off. 692 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 3: It has to be an investment loan back. It's not sexy, 693 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 3: it's not nice because obviously it's a higher interest rate. 694 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 3: But if you do decide while you are living in 695 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 3: your home to rent out your home and go from 696 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,720 Speaker 3: an owner occupy alone, you're probably going to need to refinance. 697 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 3: And if you lie, there are some pretty serious consequences. 698 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 3: I mean, they'll give you warning. But one of the 699 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 3: examples when I was looking into some terms and conditions 700 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 3: is that the bank, this bank that I looked into 701 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 3: not naming and shaming, the bank said you've got thirty 702 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 3: days to pay off the balance that is owing, at 703 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 3: which point the lender might sell the property to recoup 704 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 3: the money. With that, it feels aggressive, so it can 705 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 3: be really aggressive. But it's really important to understand that guys, 706 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 3: it's twenty twenty four and data matching and whatnot exists, 707 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 3: and the bank will report to the ATO because the 708 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 3: ATO is going to care about what you're claiming. Right, 709 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 3: So if you move out of your property, you're probably 710 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 3: thinking it's an investment. Now I'm going to be able 711 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 3: to claim a heap of expenses and you're claiming in things. 712 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 3: But then the bank finds out that you're not actually 713 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 3: paying the right loan, you could be found out, so 714 00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 3: it's not like they aren't on top of it. And 715 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 3: banks and lenders all have their own processes for checking 716 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 3: on whether you are actually an owner occupier, and banks 717 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 3: are going to have their own processes for checking if 718 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 3: you are an owner occupier or not. So they might 719 00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 3: check if you live at the property for the majority 720 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 3: of the year. They might have a look at your documentation, 721 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,720 Speaker 3: so they might request a tax return and see that 722 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: your tax return or your driver's license doesn't have that 723 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 3: address on it, it has the house that you live in. 724 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 3: Or they might see someone apply for a loan and go, 725 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 3: that address is Jess's house. 726 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 4: Ah, what's going on there? 727 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 3: Did two families live at that address? And then you go, no, no, no, 728 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: we're renting it off Jess. So I think it's really 729 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,760 Speaker 3: important to just be on top of it and be truthful. 730 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 3: It doesn't mean that the bank is going to charge 731 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,240 Speaker 3: you through your nose, but it could also be something 732 00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 3: that you call the bank and ask them, hey, what 733 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 3: happen if I moved out? 734 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 2: Hypothetically it's the process, but also. 735 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 3: That should be a part of your decision making process 736 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,280 Speaker 3: if you are planning on taking like a job out 737 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 3: of state or something, to make sure that you're not 738 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 3: financially putting yourself behind. 739 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, totally. 740 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 3: Anyway, I know you guys are shocked by that, But nothing. 741 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 2: To add for me except I had no idea that 742 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 2: that was a thing. You're like, that's crazy, Yeah, filing that. 743 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 4: Away for later. 744 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 2: The only thing I want add is, I'm assuming this 745 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 2: makes rental prices higher than the maybe should be for 746 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 2: because of the higher cost and a loan exactly. 747 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, and that's something to take into consideration as well. 748 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,080 Speaker 3: And I mean there's a lot of conversation about being 749 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:41,080 Speaker 3: an ethical landlord, and like there's a very big push 750 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 3: when it comes to people who are purchasing property right 751 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 3: and you hear it on money daries where they're like, oh, 752 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 3: I have a positively gid property where the amount of 753 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:51,120 Speaker 3: money that they earn from their property in rent actually 754 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 3: covers all of the mortgage. And that's really attractive. But 755 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 3: if cost of living happens and your interest rate increases 756 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 3: but you're hasn't increased, that's why a lot of landlords 757 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 3: would then turn around and be like, hey, Beck I'm 758 00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 3: going to increase your rent because they don't want to 759 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,280 Speaker 3: be financially out for it. And I think at some 760 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 3: point you need to be an ethical landlord and say, hey, 761 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 3: I took this on as an investment, and one of 762 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 3: the risks was that at some point I would have 763 00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,520 Speaker 3: to tip in some of my own money. It's actually 764 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 3: not Bex or Jess's responsibility to pay more on my 765 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,920 Speaker 3: mortgage just because the bank's now charging me more like 766 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 3: I think you should be charged market value. 767 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 4: But that's probably a whole damn podcast in itself. 768 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,440 Speaker 2: Sure, true, just got served a notice of INTA again. 769 00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:33,600 Speaker 2: It's been a year. 770 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 3: Oh, I feel like time does fly when you're having fun, 771 00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 3: doesn't it? 772 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 2: How much thirty bucks a week? Yeah? Like an actually 773 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 2: thirty bucks a week? Because when I first art, I 774 00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:44,400 Speaker 2: was like, oh, thirty box month, that's not so bad. 775 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 2: Like obviously you're taking the meeky week. So it's literally 776 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 2: like another hundred bucks a month. 777 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 4: Be for real. You can't even get brunch these days 778 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:52,640 Speaker 4: for thirty dollars a week? 779 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 780 00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:53,719 Speaker 2: Crazy? 781 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:54,880 Speaker 5: Hey that for me? 782 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 7: All right? 783 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 3: Well, are you ready to stop this conversation and go 784 00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 3: into our spicyd Absolutely? All right, so here's the damn 785 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 3: we received. Hi, she's on the money team. I would 786 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 3: love to hear your thoughts on this. I was part 787 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 3: of a bridal party, and four months out from the wedding, 788 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:12,959 Speaker 3: due to personal reasons, I decided I could no longer 789 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 3: fulfill this role. I had transferred my share of the 790 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:19,399 Speaker 3: payment for accommodation for a Hens weekend and was told 791 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,400 Speaker 3: I wouldn't receive this back upon deciding to no longer go. However, 792 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 3: the Hen's party has just gone and I've seen that 793 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 3: they didn't stay at the apartment we had booked, and 794 00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 3: I thought we paid for. The accommodation provider's websites state 795 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 3: that they don't take prepayment and provides a full refund 796 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 3: up until a week prior to the booking. It doesn't 797 00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:41,840 Speaker 3: seem right that they used my money to book and 798 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 3: or pay for something else. Is it reasonable to want 799 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,319 Speaker 3: my share of the payment back? 800 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 4: Thanks. 801 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 2: I don't like it. 802 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:49,800 Speaker 6: I don't like it. I don't like it. It feels 803 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 6: very icky. 804 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 4: It feels like it just got worse as I read 805 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,800 Speaker 4: it out, didn't I yeah. 806 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 2: Seriously did. Because it's like, let's ignore the fact that 807 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 2: maybe someone somewhere must have lied about the pre payment situation. 808 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 2: Ew but like someone's idea is that like, oh, he's 809 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,959 Speaker 2: a pool of money, and with this pool of money, 810 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,160 Speaker 2: we will either you know, book this really fancy hotel 811 00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:15,280 Speaker 2: or whatever. It's like, that's not actually how it is working. 812 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 2: It's like everyone's paying their own kind of slice of 813 00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,919 Speaker 2: the pie. And if the pie is now smaller then 814 00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 2: because I'm assuming that someone collected all the money for 815 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,759 Speaker 2: say ten people, and then one person pulls out and like, 816 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,360 Speaker 2: oh cool, we have the money for ten, but we 817 00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: now just have to divide it by nine, you know. 818 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 2: And it's like that I understand if you couldn't get 819 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: your money back, you still have to stay at the 820 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 2: same place. But they've taken that money, not even considered 821 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 2: the person who has to drop out, probably for some 822 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 2: good reason, I assume, and it's like, thank you so 823 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 2: much for giving us a little bit more, We're going 824 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 2: to go here instead, and now we just have a 825 00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:53,480 Speaker 2: little bit more cash to splash. I just think that's 826 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 2: really really mean, and that's not actually how it works. 827 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean, I'm so interested in why you 828 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 3: drop down, But I have a sninky suspicion because. 829 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 4: You have terrible friends. 830 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 6: Yes, and it's and it's it's just like a big fight. 831 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 4: It sounds really mean me I meant it. Yeah, just 832 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 4: what do you think? 833 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: I agree? 834 00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 5: I think like, as you said, back, if they hadn't 835 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 5: been able to get the money back and you had 836 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 5: pulled out, I think that like you've already committed. I 837 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 5: don't think it's reasonable to ask the money back because 838 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:23,480 Speaker 5: then people have. 839 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 2: To cover you. 840 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 5: But the fact that they changed the venue, unless they 841 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 5: had already changed the venue ahead of time and she 842 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 5: didn't know, I don't know it Just yeah, I agree. 843 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 5: I think that it's a bit icky that they had 844 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,040 Speaker 5: maybe the flexibility and didn't give it back because as 845 00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 5: you said, like, theoretically you're covering x amount of rooms. 846 00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 5: Everyone's put in an x amount to cover X amount 847 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,319 Speaker 5: of rooms, and you need one less room. 848 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 3: We all know, I was about to say, we all 849 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 3: know on like a bridal trip, people are sharing rooms 850 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 3: or getting apartments that you know, oh, one of us 851 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 3: will sleep on the couch, Like, I don't know. I'm 852 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 3: not justifying it because I think that she should have 853 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 3: got her money back. But I think that her friends 854 00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,719 Speaker 3: might see it a little bit differently, that they were like, oh, well, 855 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 3: when this person was involved, we you know, let everybody 856 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 3: know we could have this type of accommodation. But now 857 00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 3: they've pulled out, we would have to change it. So 858 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 3: we're going to keep their part of the budgeting. Like 859 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 3: I could see maybe as as we like talking about it, 860 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 3: maybe like if you had two girls to every room, 861 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 3: for example, yeah, like and then you're okay, well, one 862 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 3: girl's going to have a single room. 863 00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 2: Because she shouldn't have charge her more because she just 864 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 2: has someone. 865 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 5: But then if she pays the same amount as everyone else, 866 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:32,359 Speaker 5: is everyone else going to be pissed off because she's 867 00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:34,240 Speaker 5: got a single room but they're all paying the same amount. 868 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:35,959 Speaker 5: Like I can see how it does get a little 869 00:37:36,000 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 5: bit messy. 870 00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 2: Ultimately. 871 00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 3: I think like it's probably a conversation that they should 872 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 3: have had with you, Like they should have said, hey, 873 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:45,360 Speaker 3: like X y Z, we already allocated, like we've pre 874 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 3: booked a different hotel, or you know, we're going to 875 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 3: have to charge someone double or whatever. At least had 876 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 3: the conversation. I think you're well within your rights to 877 00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 3: ask it back or to at least raise it and say, hey, 878 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:58,680 Speaker 3: like you know, I understood that if it was non refundable. 879 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: Like I was never going to ask for that money back, 880 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,279 Speaker 3: but doubt it was refundable, So like, is there a 881 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 3: chance for that money to come? I think that's a 882 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,600 Speaker 3: very reasonable conversation to have. I would put together a 883 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,600 Speaker 3: nice message and basically ask that, I think on the 884 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 3: flip side as well as somebody who has had to 885 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 3: I wasn't in the bridal party, but I had to 886 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,320 Speaker 3: pull out of a Hen's party because I was really pregnant. 887 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 3: And it is back when I had so I had 888 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 3: like preclampsy when I was pregnant, right, So my entire day, 889 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 3: every single day when I was pregnant, was really dictated 890 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 3: by my blood pressure. So I would wake up and 891 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 3: I would do my blood pressure, and if I did 892 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 3: my blood pressure that day, and it was often one 893 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 3: eighty over like one ten, which was cooked, I'd have 894 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 3: to go into the hospital and like deal with it. 895 00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:42,040 Speaker 3: It was actually the biggest shit show, remember, Jess, Like 896 00:38:42,200 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 3: it was very it was like, oh, hey, Jess, sorry, 897 00:38:44,360 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 3: I was about to come into recording. Now I can't 898 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:47,760 Speaker 3: come into recording because I have to go to the hospital. 899 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 3: Or like the flip side, where it was like really 900 00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,799 Speaker 3: high and my doctor would say, if it's this level, 901 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 3: you actually just have to stay in bed that day, 902 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 3: like not moving. And then some other days my blood 903 00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 3: pressure was fine and I'd be like, Jess, it's on. 904 00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 3: Should we be like some more podcasts out right? So 905 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 3: like every day was different. But I remember having to 906 00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:09,000 Speaker 3: literally pull out the day of a Hen's party and 907 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,480 Speaker 3: be like, hey, really sorry, I can't come when I 908 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 3: was like thirty eight weeks pregnant, so I was pushing 909 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,480 Speaker 3: it already, but can't come. Would have loved to come, 910 00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,960 Speaker 3: but I'm not allowed. And at that point, I just 911 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 3: knew that that was a cost that the entire time 912 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 3: I might lose, but I wanted to be involved. And 913 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 3: I wonder if at this point, when you paid, that's 914 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 3: the cost of now missing out, Like that you paid that, yes, 915 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:35,480 Speaker 3: you had to pull out, but like is that a 916 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 3: just a lost cause?

But like I have been 926 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 3: the person that has organized a hens before and I'm like, okay, cool, 927 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,560 Speaker 3: so drinks and food are going to be this, and 928 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 3: we'll make sure that we have you know, pre drinks 929 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 3: at the hotel.

And at that point I might be like, oh, 949 00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 3: don't worry, girlfriend, I only need to lock in the 950 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,800 Speaker 3: accommodation and like that's not the full amount, so like 951 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 3: just transfer what you. 952 00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 4: Can and we'll like work it. 953 00:40:58,960 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 2: Like we'll work it out. 954 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 3: But so many people go like stone cold silent and 955 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 3: don't have these money. Is awkward, but like have the 956 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 3: conversation because I can promise someone coming to me and 957 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:10,760 Speaker 3: being like, hey, b I don't have the two fifty 958 00:41:10,880 --> 00:41:13,960 Speaker 3: or whatever it has been decided is the amount, but 959 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 3: I'll get it to you on this date or I'll 960 00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:15,759 Speaker 3: do it. 961 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 2: I don't care, Like I'll work it out. But like 962 00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 2: if you just go radio signed and how awkward it 963 00:41:21,600 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 2: is to follow you up? 964 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 4: I hate that. Don't do that to people. 965 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, so it sounds like our listener did the right thing, 966 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 5: like they let them know early. But it just maybe 967 00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 5: it was a failure of the friends to have the 968 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 5: communication that they need to have. So I think you 969 00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 5: ask for it back and see what happens. But so 970 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 5: we asked the community, do you think it's fair for 971 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 5: the group to keep her money? Seventy three percent of 972 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 5: you said no, she's owed her money back. 973 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 4: I kind of agree. 974 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,839 Speaker 3: I was trying to play Devil's advocate and like be like, oh, 975 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 3: but what if, And then twenty seven percent of you said, yep, 976 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 3: she stepped down, it's a sunk cost. The next question 977 00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,359 Speaker 3: I asked was, would you ask for a refund if 978 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,400 Speaker 3: you were in her shoes? Sixty seven percent of you 979 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:01,440 Speaker 3: said absolutely, they changed plans, and thirty three percent of 980 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 3: you said no, just take it as a loss and 981 00:42:03,320 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 3: move on. I would always ask for a refund. I 982 00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:10,760 Speaker 3: feel like always if you don't ask, you don't care exactly, 983 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 3: and if you're kind about it, like, hey, I know 984 00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 3: I pulled out. I'm hoping this hasn't like financially impacted anybody. 985 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 3: But I was wondering, given you know, and give them 986 00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 3: a little bit of invoke, so like you know that 987 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 3: the way, like the hotel was refundable.

So 1042 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 3: first person said what they did sucks, but I'd be 1043 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:35,359 Speaker 3: burying the hatchet and keep. 1044 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 4: A map of where you leave it as pertata. 1045 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,440 Speaker 3: Someone else said, what bride's expect of others to spend 1046 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 3: for their wedding is too much? 1047 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 4: It's just a day, and it's this good point. 1048 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:51,759 Speaker 2: I don't want to say too much here, but I agree. 1049 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 2: I don't think that we should be spending any money 1050 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,320 Speaker 2: on someone else's I get it sometimes. 1051 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 4: Right, I agree. 1052 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 3: So I'm a bit spicy and I have been crucified 1053 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 3: for this, but none of my bride'smaids paid for a thing, 1054 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 3: and that's very entitled because obviously I had the budget 1055 00:45:07,080 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 3: for it. But I was very much of the opinion, 1056 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 3: as was my husband, that we didn't want to get 1057 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 3: married until we were in a financial position where I 1058 00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:18,000 Speaker 3: didn't make my wedding a financial burden on somebody else. Yeah, 1059 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 3: and potentially that's you know, because I'm in finance and 1060 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 3: I talk about it all the time, and you hear 1061 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 3: these things, and we have these conversations. But like I 1062 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,839 Speaker 3: just remember being like bridesmaid's dresses I will be paying 1063 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:31,399 Speaker 3: for because it's the dress I want you to wear. 1064 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 3: And again being a little bit spicy, you're a bit 1065 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 3: delusional if you think you're going to pick a matching 1066 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,080 Speaker 3: bridesmaid's dress and then try and convince Jess. Don't worry, babe, Like, 1067 00:45:41,120 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 3: if you spend four hundred dollars on dress, you'll probably 1068 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 3: wear it again. 1069 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 2: Because just hemet and wear it again. 1070 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 4: Nobody's gonna hamm it and wear it again. Nobody like nobody. 1071 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, I've just got a lot of opinions about this, 1072 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 3: but I was very much of the opinion that my 1073 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 3: wedding day shouldn't put a financial burden on other people. Yeah, 1074 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 3: and so we've paid for everything. Does that mean that 1075 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 3: I think everyone should do that? No, because everybody has 1076 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 3: different budgets. But I think everybody should have open, honest 1077 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 3: conversations about that. Like if I was to ask you 1078 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 3: Beck to be my bridesmaid, we should be having a 1079 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 3: bit of a conversation up front, like, oh my god, 1080 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:18,920 Speaker 3: you want to be my bridesmaid, and you go. 1081 00:46:19,320 --> 00:46:22,480 Speaker 2: I'd love that, But like, also, what are the expectations totally. 1082 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:23,920 Speaker 6: I think got the money for bridesmaids. 1083 00:46:24,040 --> 00:46:24,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. 1084 00:46:24,880 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 3: But if I said, hey, Beck, I'd love you to 1085 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 3: be my bridesmaid, by the way, I wouldn't ever want 1086 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 3: this to be a financial burden on you. 1087 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:32,000 Speaker 4: I'll be covering everything. 1088 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 2: You might go, oh, okay, I would. 1089 00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 3: Actually love that, like I would love to be involved. Like, 1090 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,919 Speaker 3: thanks for thinking of me. But you're right, Beck, it's 1091 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 3: not your day. Why are you paying so much? We're 1092 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:44,400 Speaker 3: in a cost of living crisis. We are all worried 1093 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:47,120 Speaker 3: about groceries, We're worried about our electrical bills, and then 1094 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,239 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, your mate's getting married and a 1095 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 3: three hundred dollars dress seems to be reasonable. 1096 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,560 Speaker 2: To ask you to purchase. I know, stressful. 1097 00:46:56,640 --> 00:46:59,440 Speaker 3: You need matching shoes, like I have a pair of 1098 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,000 Speaker 3: new shoes. Why can't I just wag anyway, It's like 1099 00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:05,919 Speaker 3: a whole conversation. I just obviously I am a little 1100 00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 3: bit heated about it. 1101 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 6: Back, I completely get it. 1102 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:09,760 Speaker 4: More comments from the community. 1103 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 3: One person said, if they stayed at the original accommodation, 1104 00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 3: she would have had to take the loss, but they didn't, 1105 00:47:14,800 --> 00:47:17,399 Speaker 3: so she should get her money back. Someone else said, 1106 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,719 Speaker 3: there's never any harm in asking. That's what VD would say. 1107 00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:22,880 Speaker 3: If they say no, I'd take it. 1108 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:23,799 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1109 00:47:24,040 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 3: Someone else said, people are real weird about Hens.

Like why don't we know why? 1117 00:47:46,960 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 3: I know you said personal reasons, but like girl, it 1118 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:51,759 Speaker 3: was anonymous, I need to know. 1119 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:53,560 Speaker 6: I need to know it's a message. 1120 00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, like we need to know. 1121 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 3: Someone else said people kept pulling out of my hands 1122 00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 3: and it got super frustrating and hard. 1123 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 2: Oh I can understand that. 1124 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 4: I totally get that. 1125 00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 2: Good perspective. 1126 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 3: I totally get that. And if you've already paid and 1127 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 3: then people are pulling out of the Hens party because 1128 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:10,480 Speaker 3: you've probably allocated the budget, but we're talking about bride 1129 00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 3: or party, like one of your bridesmaids has left, and 1130 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 3: if that kept happening to. 1131 00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:15,560 Speaker 4: You, I'm so sorry. 1132 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that would be really hard. 1133 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:19,080 Speaker 4: I like three bridesmaids can you. 1134 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:21,479 Speaker 3: Imagine if people kept pulling out and would have had nothing, 1135 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 3: and someone else said, and we'll leave it here. It's 1136 00:48:25,200 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 3: not fair on the other bridesmaids to absorb the extra 1137 00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 3: cost from her pulling out. 1138 00:48:30,000 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a bit of a push. 1139 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:31,800 Speaker 2: And pull, isn't it. 1140 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 5: Like you've got to you got to kind of figure 1141 00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:37,640 Speaker 5: out what happened, why it happened, where the money did go, 1142 00:48:37,920 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 5: and you know, I think that will probably inform whether 1143 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:41,520 Speaker 5: or not some of it can come back.
