[00:51] >> Hi, I'm Callie. I'm 28. I'm Drew. I'm
[00:54] 29. We're from the Dallas Fort Worth
[00:56] area
[00:56] >> and this is Financial Audit.
[00:59] >> Welcome. Thanks for coming down to
[01:02] Austin guys.
[01:04] >> Listen, no, you're welcome. You're
[01:05] welcome. I I know I need to be a part of
[01:07] this conversation. I looked at the note
[01:09] for the episode. Don't know much else
[01:11] about y'all, but I know one of you says,
[01:13] "I'm the financial audit of the
[01:15] relationship," which I've never heard
[01:16] that before, and I need Caleb to help me
[01:19] essentially reaffirm that. who is
[01:21] financially auditing each other in this
[01:23] relationship. I don't know. As the
[01:25] financial audit guy, by the way, I do
[01:26] not financial audit my relationship. I
[01:28] don't know how long my relationship
[01:30] would ask if I was financially auditing
[01:32] and Caleb hammering my own relationship
[01:34] on a daily basis. I think she would
[01:36] murder me. Who's financial auditing each
[01:39] other? And who's murdering each other?
[01:41] >> So, I'm trying to financially audit
[01:43] Cali.
[01:44] >> Okay, good luck.
[01:46] >> Yeah, I need it.
[01:47] >> So, what's going on? What? What? What
[01:49] are you financially auditing? Cali, are
[01:50] you guys married?
[01:51] >> Yeah. Get some baselines.
[01:53] >> I said no.
[01:54] >> How the are we disagreeing on marriage?
[01:57] That doesn't make sense. That immediate
[01:59] I'm going to be honest. What the
[02:01] >> Okay, we're not legally married. We are
[02:03] quote Texas common law married. We have
[02:05] >> Okay. So, what do you what do you guys
[02:07] call yourselves?
[02:08] >> Husband and wife.
[02:09] >> Husband and wife. Yeah.
[02:10] >> Then what do you say? No, you're common
[02:12] law married.
[02:13] >> From like a legal standpoint,
[02:15] >> you got the common law protection. You
[02:17] establish it. common law married.
[02:18] >> Okay, then yes, we're married.
[02:20] >> Okay. How long have you, I guess, been
[02:22] together?
[02:23] >> Um, we've been together for like 8
[02:25] years.
[02:25] >> Yeah, about 8 years, I think.
[02:26] >> Why the don't Why not just get married?
[02:29] >> Um, number one, very expensive.
[02:31] >> Not really. Go to the courthouse.
[02:33] >> Okay. I wanted I would I offered that
[02:35] and then his parents said that his
[02:38] parents
[02:38] >> we should have one for the family to
[02:40] bring.
[02:40] >> Okay. So, now we just have none at all.
[02:43] Should be your response to the parents.
[02:45] I mean, you guys are doing I pulled up
[02:47] to work all happy, all excited to get
[02:50] here, get myself a cup of coffee, and I
[02:52] saw you guys flinging dirty diapers in
[02:54] the parking lot. You guys are breeding.
[02:57] >> You ain't married, common law. You guys
[02:59] have been together, but you're breeding.
[03:00] There's children in my office.
[03:03] >> I don't know how many, but there's
[03:04] noises. As I was going out there right
[03:06] before filming,
[03:07] >> how many kids y'all got together?
[03:09] >> Three.
[03:11] >> Oh [ __ ] And you can't even get married?
[03:13] That's weird. How old?
[03:15] >> Um 6 20 months and 6 months.
[03:17] >> What?
[03:18] >> 6 years old. 20 months and 6 months.
[03:21] >> Okay. Why? Why? 20 months. That's the
[03:24] >> He's not 2 years old.
[03:25] >> He's basically
[03:26] >> Say that to him.
[03:28] >> I Okay. He's basically two. You argue
[03:30] with
[03:30] >> I lost track of the months. I just say
[03:32] that he's going to be two in September.
[03:33] >> No, you don't. You go. I don't like
[03:35] that.
[03:35] >> Okay. So, 6 years, 20 months, and 6
[03:39] months.
[03:39] >> Yeah.
[03:40] >> Okay. So, well, we're on a roll. Well,
[03:42] it sounds like you guys are pumping them
[03:44] out quickly. Now, is is there a fourth
[03:46] one coming? Because you went from 20
[03:47] months 6 months.
[03:49] >> No,
[03:50] >> it's on the table, but we're years away.
[03:53] >> See, again, you guys aren't aligned.
[03:54] What? What? What?
[03:55] >> Well, you say if if you ask if another
[03:57] one's coming. I'm assuming like right
[03:59] now. No, we're not.
[04:00] >> You're about to turn 30. When's the
[04:02] years away? You know what happening?
[04:04] Okay. Well, you'd be okay, I guess. But
[04:06] just start heading towards the cliff.
[04:08] >> Well, yes, I guess. Well, it's just if
[04:11] we're making plans, right? I don't know.
[04:14] >> Yeah.
[04:14] >> Are you raw dogging?
[04:16] >> Yeah.
[04:17] >> Okay. So, I don't think it's necessarily
[04:19] 5 years away.
[04:21] >> Could be if we plan it right.
[04:23] >> Oh, absolutely. But it could happen at
[04:26] any time. It's happened on this show.
[04:28] It's likely. Were all them intentional?
[04:30] >> Um,
[04:31] >> exactly.
[04:31] >> No.
[04:32] >> Exactly.
[04:33] >> No.
[04:33] >> And neither was I. This is biology.
[04:35] Welcome to Come. We just recently
[04:39] combined everything.
[04:40] >> 8 years in.
[04:42] >> Yeah.
[04:42] >> Well, I think I understand the why you
[04:45] guys broke up and then you found out
[04:47] you're pregnant, so you're just like,
[04:48] "A, we'll do it."
[04:49] >> Well, no, we got pregnant after we got
[04:51] back together.
[04:52] >> Okay.
[04:53] >> But no, we just recently combined
[04:56] everything. Um, and so with that, he's
[04:58] trying to have more control over it. And
[05:00] I don't like that cuz I haven't had to
[05:02] do that my entire life. Have I had to
[05:05] ask someone, can I go buy this?
[05:08] Um so
[05:09] >> because I'm married, it's not
[05:11] necessarily permission on everything,
[05:13] but it is a conversation whether or not
[05:14] we can afford it in the budget in order
[05:17] to hit the goals that we're trying to
[05:18] get to as a couple.
[05:19] >> That'd be correct if um that was shared
[05:23] with the class.
[05:23] >> If what? Share your [ __ ] Tell you share
[05:25] with the class what the I'm trying to
[05:27] get some insight. Tell me.
[05:28] >> Tell you what,
[05:29] >> what's going on? Why are you saying
[05:30] that? What does that mean?
[05:32] >> I have no clue. So, in all honesty, I
[05:34] >> What is going on then for you to say
[05:35] that? You just have no insight. Is that
[05:37] what you're trying to tell me?
[05:37] >> No, I don't.
[05:38] >> Okay, that's what you got to say.
[05:40] >> Okay. So, why?
[05:41] >> Because he puts it all in a little black
[05:42] book while he works overnight and then
[05:44] doesn't tell me about it and or it's on
[05:46] an app on his phone now and then doesn't
[05:49] show us like the budget. Doesn't show me
[05:51] the budget. We don't have any
[05:52] conversations about it. Ask.
[05:54] >> Well, it's not that she It's not that
[05:56] she can't know. We have conversations
[05:57] about it. I'm not trying to hide.
[05:59] >> She's saying everything that's going on.
[06:01] She's But okay. Well, what
[06:03] >> he doesn't actively try and I've told
[06:05] him multiple times, we need to schedule
[06:06] a time like on a Sunday, sit down, fix
[06:08] our budget, plan out like meals and
[06:10] stuff together, and this is what we need
[06:12] to do, like plan out our grocery list
[06:14] and all of that good stuff. But he has
[06:17] yet to like try that. I'm still the one
[06:20] making the grocery list.
[06:21] >> Wait, but he he was saying in the pre-in
[06:24] that it's all your fault. You weren't
[06:25] even supposed to be on. We just luckily
[06:27] convinced you to come on because he was
[06:29] saying it's all your fault and all your
[06:30] spending. But you're saying he's not
[06:32] willing to put in the effort or try.
[06:35] >> But then he makes like massive payments
[06:37] on cards and then I don't
[06:38] >> cards. Well, yeah. Paying off debt.
[06:40] Wouldn't that be good?
[06:42] >> Correct.
[06:42] >> What's wrong with that?
[06:43] >> But if I don't know about it in our
[06:45] budget and I'm planning to like grocery
[06:46] shop and then money goes out and then I
[06:48] don't tight it. What do you guys do?
[06:50] What do you What do you do for work,
[06:51] Kelly?
[06:51] >> So, I work in real estate.
[06:53] >> Well, in what context?
[06:55] >> I work in management. Property
[06:56] management.
[06:57] >> Okay. Okay. That that could make money.
[06:59] I don't know.
[07:00] So, what do you make?
[07:01] >> I make $96,200 a year.
[07:04] >> Okay, go yourselves. How possibly are we
[07:07] talking about? We made a payment on a
[07:09] car. Now, we don't know if we can get
[07:10] groceries if half of our income is
[07:13] $96,000 a year. Die. What the is wrong
[07:16] with you? That's that you're acting like
[07:18] children. If you're saying making a
[07:20] payment on a card prevents you from
[07:21] getting groceries, you're being
[07:23] children. It doesn't prevent, but it
[07:25] does kind of throw things off when I'M
[07:27] NOT
[07:27] >> NO, NOT enough for half the income.
[07:30] >> I'm not on the Wells Fargo account. I'm
[07:32] not on the MX account. And he goes he
[07:34] goes and does stuff with the MX and
[07:36] makes a payment with the Wells Fargo.
[07:38] >> The problem is that Exactly. Like you
[07:40] said, no communication.
[07:42] >> We We make money. We have sat down and
[07:44] built out a budget and then the second
[07:47] life starts happening, we just throw the
[07:49] budget out the window and it's hundreds
[07:51] of dollars towards this, hundreds of
[07:53] dollars towards that. Stuff that's not
[07:55] in the budget, stuff that we don't
[07:56] actually need.
[07:57] >> What What are we getting that we don't
[07:58] need? Who's getting what we don't need?
[08:00] How often?
[08:01] >> You're crying and complaining that you
[08:03] couldn't get groceries, but you're
[08:05] getting [ __ ] you don't need. So that's
[08:06] that's not the same thing.
[08:08] >> It's not the same thing.
[08:09] >> What is she getting? What is she doing?
[08:10] >> God, I mean, it's everything. It's
[08:12] clothes for herself. Um, you know,
[08:15] shoes. I don't even know what she's
[08:16] getting on Amazon, but [ __ ] just keeps
[08:18] showing up almost every single day. And
[08:21] then not to mention all all the new
[08:23] hobbies that she picks up. Have you ever
[08:25] seen how expensive pottery is pottery?
[08:27] >> Oh, why the are you picking up? Listen,
[08:29] I mean, do a hobby. Hobbies fine. You
[08:31] guys make money. You can get a hobby,
[08:33] but you got to have a fully funed,
[08:35] emergency fund, and no bad debt,
[08:36] >> right?
[08:37] >> And even if you even if you have those
[08:39] things, stick to a hobby. Don't hobby
[08:41] hobby. You're a hobby hopper.
[08:42] >> I am a hobby hopper.
[08:43] >> If you're a hobby hopper, you can't
[08:44] afford to be hobby hopping. You should
[08:46] be able to at 96.
[08:47] >> Set hobby, but I set out to learn
[08:48] something new this year. And I wanted to
[08:50] learn
[08:50] >> new this year. Okay. How many new things
[08:51] is she learning this year?
[08:53] >> This year, I think it's just the pottery
[08:55] so far.
[08:56] >> Okay. Well, how much is it cost? 96. You
[08:58] should be able to do pottery. You can do
[09:00] pottery. 96.
[09:01] >> Pottery is very expensive.
[09:02] >> 96. You can do it. You alone are making
[09:05] more than the median household income in
[09:07] the DFW area in the United States.
[09:10] >> We should be able to afford that. I
[09:12] agree.
[09:12] >> You can if you're not it all up.
[09:14] >> And on all the Amazon packages, my good
[09:17] sir, that's all for work currently.
[09:19] >> That is not all for work.
[09:21] >> All of the packages that are
[09:22] >> the ones that are coming the ones that
[09:24] are coming right now are for work. Your
[09:26] company's paying for that. But over the
[09:28] last I bought one.
[09:30] >> Why do you refuse to show them your
[09:31] Amazon account though? I'm being told
[09:32] that. I've you pull out my phone. We can
[09:35] pull it up right now. You can have it,
[09:36] buddy.
[09:37] >> Why have you refused to show it up until
[09:38] this moment, though?
[09:39] >> Never refused. I've gone through it.
[09:41] >> Why are you saying that then? Why are
[09:42] you telling Why are you telling Lindsay
[09:44] that you refuse that she refuses to show
[09:46] you?
[09:46] >> I think it's because she doesn't want me
[09:48] to see all of the stuff.
[09:49] >> If she's saying she doesn't refuse,
[09:51] though so
[09:54] now if she would if she would ask if I
[09:56] would ask.
[09:56] >> No, we'll look at that later. But you
[09:58] specifically told us that she refuses to
[10:00] show it, but she's saying no. No, no. I
[10:02] don't refuse.
[10:03] >> He's never asked. He's never said
[10:05] anything.
[10:06] >> So, you're saying he refuses to show you
[10:08] the finances? She's He's saying you
[10:10] refuse.
[10:11] >> I've asked. That's the difference is I
[10:13] ask. I say, "Hey, what are we like what
[10:15] what are we what's our budget?" And then
[10:17] he wants to throw out that I go and buy
[10:18] all these clothes. He has set a $100
[10:21] like clothing fund within our budget.
[10:24] And I don't ever
[10:25] >> every single month,
[10:26] >> right? But I've only bought one outfit
[10:29] for myself in like 2 months.
[10:32] >> Absolutely not true.
[10:33] >> I bought a shirt, a pair of pants, and
[10:35] then last month I bought two dresses.
[10:37] >> Okay, how about last month when we That
[10:39] might have even been just 3 weeks ago,
[10:42] we went to the sporting goods store.
[10:44] >> I bought a bathing suit and a bathing
[10:45] suit cover up.
[10:46] >> $400.
[10:48] >> And then we bought a couple of things. I
[10:50] And that's honestly because the store we
[10:51] went to, that's very expensive. I bought
[10:52] a bathing suit, a bathing suit cover up,
[10:54] and then a workout outfit.
[10:57] for the gym. Like that was it.
[10:59] >> It was $400.
[11:01] >> It's Well, you can't wear your bikini
[11:04] out in the middle of public, right?
[11:06] >> Who?
[11:07] >> Um public indecency laws.
[11:09] >> Is this true?
[11:10] >> That is not true.
[11:11] >> I've live Well, Lifetime has the rule
[11:13] that you can't walk out in out of like
[11:15] the dressing room.
[11:16] >> Okay, whatever. That's that that's not
[11:17] the big point. Okay, you complained. You
[11:20] you made the excuse it was dependent on
[11:22] the store. Why'd you go to that store
[11:23] then? That was just what was closest to
[11:25] his parents house and we were going
[11:27] >> if you're going to go to another place.
[11:28] >> Well, I mean
[11:30] >> the entire excuse for that which by the
[11:32] way again you guys can afford a $400
[11:34] purchase. We we haven't even talked
[11:35] about your job. You
[11:36] >> should be able to.
[11:37] >> Median household for your metro $70,000.
[11:40] Yeah.
[11:40] >> You make 94. You not even him included.
[11:44] What do you do for a living?
[11:45] >> I work in public safety.
[11:47] >> Public safety usually pays well these
[11:49] days. What do you make?
[11:50] >> Uh so I make a shade over $50 an hour.
[11:54] Guys,
[11:57] what the are we doing? What does that
[11:59] translate to?
[12:00] >> Around 107 annually.
[12:04] >> You make $200,000 a year in an area
[12:06] where the median household income is 70.
[12:09] And you're telling me you can't get
[12:10] groceries? You shouldn't even be
[12:12] freaking out about a $500 purchase. How
[12:15] have you guys this up so bad? And then
[12:17] you guys don't even have the same
[12:20] conclusion in the end about what it
[12:23] looks like today or how it's gotten
[12:24] there.
[12:25] >> What the has happened. Yeah. Lack of
[12:28] communication. But I don't know which
[12:29] side's correct if any.
[12:31] >> Well, it's not just a lack of
[12:32] communication. We have spent so long
[12:34] living above our means that
[12:36] >> above 200 a year.
[12:38] >> Well, it wasn't always 200. That's only
[12:40] been in the last year and a half or so.
[12:42] >> What? Year and a half is great. So even
[12:44] still last year and a half let's say you
[12:46] lived above your means before that last
[12:48] year and a half you should be able to
[12:49] pay that down.
[12:50] >> So what the are you doing? What is what
[12:53] is
[12:53] >> I think it's just mismanagement of money
[12:55] to be honest
[12:56] >> from
[12:56] >> from probably both parties.
[12:58] >> What' you say both parties to an extent?
[13:00] Yeah.
[13:01] >> Okay.
[13:01] >> I spend but he doesn't communicate what
[13:04] we need to pay and when and how those
[13:06] payments are aligning. Like I know that
[13:08] he has set up how we're going to what is
[13:10] it your payment method for like paying
[13:13] things off.
[13:14] >> Oh the avalanche.
[13:15] >> Oh is avalanche. Okay. Yeah that doesn't
[13:17] work if we spend more money on them
[13:18] anyway. So he's probably not doing
[13:20] avalanche. I don't know. People have
[13:21] this in their mind then they don't even
[13:23] touch it. Yeah was the plan. Immediately
[13:25] spent only did the minimum payment on
[13:27] the top card and then spent double the
[13:30] balance that was already on it. So
[13:32] avalanche you. What are you talking
[13:34] about? There's no avalanche. How do the
[13:35] financial conversations go in this
[13:36] household?
[13:37] >> Not well.
[13:38] >> Tell me.
[13:39] >> It ends in a fight. Always. Um, he
[13:43] thinks he's right. I think I'm right. We
[13:44] butt our heads. And then
[13:46] >> what's the perspective? Tell me. Give me
[13:48] like the most recent example. So my plan
[13:51] is we discuss how much is going to come
[13:54] in. Our um our income is pretty set in
[13:58] stone with the exception of any overtime
[13:59] that I get. That's just extra. Um, and
[14:03] so then we can build out, you know, if
[14:05] we're going to spend $1,000 on groceries
[14:07] every month, uh, we know what our
[14:09] mortgage payment is going to be, we know
[14:10] what the car payments are going to be,
[14:12] we know what our utilities are going to
[14:13] be, and then we should have x amount
[14:16] left over to in this case or given our
[14:19] circumstances, we need to be able to
[14:21] apply that to the debts, but instead it
[14:25] just gets spent on other things.
[14:28] And then the conversations are usually
[14:31] well you know we have we have to do this
[14:33] this is coming up we need to make sure
[14:36] that we can put this money towards this
[14:38] or the second we get any unexpected
[14:40] money instead of applying that towards
[14:42] our existing debts it's I think we
[14:45] should do this with it instead
[14:47] >> but that's always a conversation and he
[14:48] typically agrees to it. It is never me
[14:51] deciding.
[14:52] >> What do you mean? How did that turn into
[14:53] a fight? I said for a recent example,
[14:54] but you guys say you're fighting. What
[14:56] was
[14:56] >> Because we argue about where money goes
[14:59] and then he gets angry about what I
[15:00] spend money on. So if I go and buy my
[15:03] daughter something, he gets he will
[15:06] argue about that. Um or that she doesn't
[15:08] need this.
[15:08] >> That's an example is what I'm asking
[15:10] for. That's what I asked for, guys. Come
[15:11] on.
[15:12] >> He went and bought clothes.
[15:13] >> Clothes. Okay. $890 of clothes.
[15:16] >> Yeah, it's expensive. Expensive. You
[15:19] should be able to afford it in your
[15:20] budget though. You should be able to.
[15:21] What was the argument?
[15:22] >> It It wasn't budgeted. She said, "I'm
[15:24] going to go to Target. I'm going to get
[15:26] a couple of clothes for the kids."
[15:27] >> I said, "I'm going to get all summer
[15:29] clothes because they all need it. They
[15:31] are all in the next size up at the very
[15:33] same time."
[15:34] >> And then without any further
[15:35] conversation, it was I'm buying their
[15:38] full wardrobes for the next four to 6
[15:40] months when we don't have that kind of
[15:42] money available.
[15:43] >> That doesn't make sense. You don't pay
[15:44] for that. Six shirts for my
[15:46] six-year-old. Four pairs of pants, two
[15:48] dresses, and a pair of shoes and
[15:50] underwear.
[15:50] >> Damn. Why'd you got to get so much in
[15:52] one go?
[15:53] >> What do you mean? It's There's seven
[15:55] days in a week.
[15:56] >> She didn't have anything else, and
[15:57] there's no hand-me-downs from the
[15:58] previous.
[15:59] >> She's the oldest.
[16:00] >> There's no family members. I don't know.
[16:01] So, there was no confirmed. There was no
[16:04] other clothes for her to wear.
[16:05] >> Her closet's full. She's borderline 40.
[16:07] What do you mean it's full? Half her
[16:09] butt is hanging out in her bike shorts.
[16:10] Her shorts are her shirt lifts up and
[16:12] shows her tummy whenever she's out. Do
[16:14] you really want her walking around with
[16:15] her belly and butt out?
[16:17] >> She's obviously not.
[16:18] >> No, she's very lean, but she's very
[16:20] tall. So, like the skirt we bought her
[16:23] four months ago, or I mean 6 months ago
[16:25] at this point, doesn't fit.
[16:26] >> Then why in this moment did you text and
[16:27] call him and say, "Ied up."
[16:29] >> I texted him at checkout and was like,
[16:31] "Okay, I that is not literally my text.
[16:36] I up." And he said, "Oh,
[16:38] >> did you though? Cuz right now you're
[16:39] saying you clearly did."
[16:40] >> I don't think I did. I don't think
[16:41] >> Why did you text me up? because I knew
[16:43] he'd be mad about the cost. But then he
[16:46] doesn't ever go buy their clothes.
[16:47] >> What store?
[16:49] >> Target.
[16:50] >> That's not unreasonable.
[16:52] >> Like I wasn't going to Justice. I wasn't
[16:54] going to
[16:55] >> I don't know what that is, but it's a
[16:57] girl store.
[16:57] >> Well,
[16:58] >> I wasn't going anywhere crazy. It's
[16:59] Target and it was $5 Cat and Jack shirts
[17:01] and bike shorts.
[17:03] >> Yeah. I'm not saying that the entire
[17:05] purchase was completely unreasonable,
[17:06] but maybe a little heads up that we're
[17:08] spending almost $1,000.
[17:10] >> Heads up was fine. Did he know? Did he
[17:13] know you were going?
[17:13] >> He did know. I I told him I'm
[17:15] >> So, what was the What did he think was
[17:17] happening?
[17:18] >> He probably thought I was going to spend
[17:19] like $200. But then again, had he ever
[17:23] gone and bought clothing for our
[17:24] children, he would know.
[17:26] >> Is that what you all have negotiated
[17:28] responsibilities around the house?
[17:30] >> No.
[17:30] >> Okay. Cuz I'll be completely honest, in
[17:32] her pre-in she says you're lazy around
[17:33] the house, that you check out at the
[17:34] house, that you just show up and you're
[17:36] just a bad uh
[17:38] >> partner. Yeah. That Well, that is what
[17:40] she said.
[17:41] >> Yeah. I I'm not perfect, but
[17:42] >> Well, not perfect. I mean, she made it
[17:44] sound a little worse. Like, you just
[17:45] don't contribute. So, like, yeah, you
[17:48] wouldn't have any perspective in buying
[17:50] clothes and whatnot if you don't help.
[17:53] >> Like, when was the last time you went
[17:54] and bought them clothes? Give me an
[17:56] actual time, a time frame when you went
[17:59] with me or whenever you went and bought
[18:01] them yourself.
[18:02] >> I don't know. I mean, in the last 6
[18:03] months or so, I've been there or went
[18:06] and bought
[18:07] >> you pair of shoes a month ago and before
[18:09] that. Can you give me another example?
[18:13] >> Not off the top of my head. No.
[18:14] >> Okay.
[18:16] >> What is this lack of helping around the
[18:18] house then? Cuz that's going and buying
[18:20] clothes. But I want more perspective
[18:22] into this.
[18:23] >> So he works nights. Um so on those
[18:25] nights he takes a a short nap um the day
[18:28] of or he has the kids. I work full-time
[18:30] and I I'm throughout the day. So he has
[18:32] the kids. Um, and we have two small ones
[18:35] that don't always lean the most ability
[18:38] to clean, which is okay. Um, but then he
[18:43] has the two days that he's off and he
[18:45] does jack [ __ ] the entire time. He
[18:49] rarely gets up and then the last day
[18:51] that he's off. So like if he works
[18:53] Tuesday and Wednesday or Wednesday and
[18:54] Thursday, he doesn't really do anything
[18:56] until Friday evening or Saturday.
[18:58] >> How many hours a week are you working?
[18:59] So, I have an alternating schedule. Uh,
[19:02] on my short week, I work uh 24 hours. On
[19:06] my long week, I work
[19:07] >> What's he doing on his 24 hours? He's
[19:08] not doing anything.
[19:09] >> That's a great question. I don't know. I
[19:11] clean the whole house.
[19:11] >> Listen, I understand your schedule's a
[19:12] bit. Okay. Your sleep's a bit weird.
[19:14] That I mean, that is fair. That part's
[19:16] fair, but 24 hours, you got you can step
[19:19] up a little at the house. No.
[19:21] >> Yeah. I mean, I I try I do try, but you
[19:23] try.
[19:24] >> Um, well, last week, uh, it was raining.
[19:27] He left the dog outside in the rain. and
[19:28] he slept on the couch. Our toddler was
[19:30] running around with a marker colored on
[19:31] the couch and the baby was awake. And I
[19:34] was in the middle of a work call, got
[19:35] off of that, went downstairs and I said,
[19:37] "Are you kidding me?"
[19:40] Yeah,
[19:42] >> buddy.
[19:43] >> How do you defend yourself?
[19:44] >> What the are we doing? Look, it I I do I
[19:47] do try my hardest to make sure that they
[19:50] are that they're safe, that I'm not
[19:51] leaving them in weird positions like
[19:53] that. But when I'm when I'm working 12
[19:56] hours overnight and then I come home and
[19:58] now I'm responsible for an almost
[20:00] 2-year-old and a baby and keeping them
[20:03] quiet to a point that she can that she
[20:05] can work and not have the noises of of
[20:07] children's lives interrupt her phone.
[20:09] >> This was a Monday or Tuesday. So my
[20:10] sister was off of work and available to
[20:13] help. I also offered
[20:14] >> that was my second question.
[20:16] >> I also offered and said I will take them
[20:18] if you need me to. What do you need from
[20:20] me? And he said no it's fine. I'm gonna
[20:22] try to get them down for a nap and then
[20:25] never sleep.
[20:26] >> It doesn't work because I was about to
[20:27] defend you cuz your sleep that is your
[20:29] sleep schedule and that's fair. I was
[20:30] about to defend you but if the sister
[20:32] was willing to step in and she offered
[20:33] you can't take the responsibility and
[20:35] then not
[20:35] >> he's like the partner in a school
[20:37] project whenever you do all of the work
[20:38] and then he goes me too. And then he
[20:40] gets a grade for it.
[20:41] >> How's y'all's relationship right now?
[20:44] >> We're we're trying. It's it's it's
[20:47] rocky. It's a really hard
[20:48] >> Why is it rocky? So because we have this
[20:51] exact conversation
[20:53] >> 50 times a week.
[20:54] >> Exactly.
[20:55] >> Why did you step up after you have that
[20:57] issue?
[20:57] >> Well, I I
[20:58] >> It's not like a biological problem
[20:59] you're having. That's like a
[21:02] >> It's not like you're not getting hard,
[21:05] >> right?
[21:06] >> And which there are pills for that.
[21:07] >> Okay. And there's pills for that. So
[21:08] there we go. But even so, this is
[21:10] literally just behavior,
[21:13] >> right? I understand that. And
[21:15] >> you're someone with discipline. You're
[21:16] in public. After we h after we have
[21:18] these conversations, I do get better for
[21:20] >> a few days for a period of time and then
[21:23] I and then I have days where I struggle
[21:26] and it's
[21:27] >> it it's hard to have a great day every
[21:30] day. But I I do asking for great day
[21:32] every day.
[21:33] >> Sometimes it feels that way.
[21:34] >> Okay. But also you went to help them buy
[21:36] shoes once in the last 6 months.
[21:40] >> That's not great day every day request.
[21:42] >> But the the biggest conversation that we
[21:44] have is more around the house.
[21:46] because she she complains almost I mean
[21:50] I'd say four times a week that she's
[21:52] doing all the cleaning around the house
[21:54] and that I do nothing to help. But like
[21:56] I said before, I'm having to keep these
[21:59] two rambunctious children active and
[22:03] doing something in a way that it doesn't
[22:06] interrupt or interfere with her work.
[22:08] >> Right. But then you complain to Lindsay
[22:09] that she doesn't cook enough.
[22:10] >> Right. She But there's days where she
[22:12] chooses not to cook.
[22:14] >> Yes. because she had she had a long day
[22:16] of work and instead of cooking, we're
[22:18] just going to order something.
[22:19] >> Can you cook?
[22:21] >> Absolutely. And I love cooking.
[22:22] >> Oh, does he cook?
[22:23] >> Occasionally. Okay, if you love to cook,
[22:25] then cook. But expecting me to cook
[22:28] dinner, clean the entire house, manage
[22:30] all three kids, work a full-time job.
[22:32] Not to mention, I'm also in school.
[22:35] I'm so sorry. I feel like I have a
[22:37] Thanksgiving plate and it's overflowing.
[22:39] And yours has a slice of turkey and
[22:41] maybe a little dollop of potatoes. Take
[22:43] some damn sides off my plate and have a
[22:46] low like have a field day with it. Dude,
[22:49] I don't know what you want.
[22:50] >> You think she's lazy?
[22:52] >> No, I don't think No, you think he's
[22:53] lazy?
[22:54] >> Yes. I mean, he'll do the dishes, but he
[22:57] does
[22:58] >> the dishes. Doesn't clean off the
[23:00] counters. Doesn't clean off the stove.
[23:02] Doesn't take things and put them away.
[23:05] He does the dishes in less sink.
[23:08] >> Are you a minimum effort guy at the
[23:10] house? I I really try not to be, but
[23:12] some days I say the good words. You say
[23:15] you're trying, you do, you want to all
[23:17] these things, but you don't do any of
[23:21] it.
[23:22] >> So, you got the good words, but where's
[23:25] the good actions? You're a disciplined
[23:26] man. You're in public safety.
[23:28] >> You went through it.
[23:29] >> You helped the world be disciplined. Why
[23:32] can't you bring some of that to home? I
[23:34] don't know. I guess maybe I'm just
[23:37] giving too much at work and not allowing
[23:41] myself to have any extra effort to give
[23:44] once I come home.
[23:45] >> It feels a little bit like a cope. I'm
[23:46] not going to lie.
[23:47] >> I mean like maybe that's true, but it
[23:49] feels like family dinners on Sundays
[23:51] with your co-workers and you
[23:52] occasionally find dark dilapidated
[23:54] corners and take naps.
[23:55] >> So
[23:58] I'm confused. I don't get to take naps
[24:01] at work.
[24:03] >> I don't take naps at work.
[24:05] Okay.
[24:06] >> Huh? But why what are you insisting or
[24:08] insinuating here?
[24:09] >> He takes naps at work.
[24:11] >> So, I mean, you're he's saying that he's
[24:13] one of those where you're allowed to.
[24:15] >> I'm going to be real with you. Your debt
[24:17] is not the same as everyone else's.

[24:25] different. Your payments are different.
[24:26] Your life is different. So, why do you
[24:28] need some one-sizefits-all solution that
[24:30] treats you like a number? some generic
[24:32] calculator that spits out just pay more
[24:34] as if you hadn't thought of that
[24:35] already. That's what sets PDS apart.

[27:00] yes and no. I mean,
[27:02] >> obvious obviously it's not ideal to do
[27:05] that. Uh, and I and I do my best not to.
[27:08] I've I've dozed off. I'm not going to
[27:09] lie to you and say that I haven't dozed
[27:11] off and fallen asleep.
[27:11] >> So then you're not giving up when we're
[27:13] not when we're not having a busy night
[27:15] at home. That's my argument there is.
[27:18] >> Yeah.
[27:19] >> I mean to be clear with the spending and
[27:21] a lot of things you do, not the clothes
[27:23] thing, but we do know from what we
[27:25] looked at that you are the aggressive
[27:28] aggressive spender on [ __ ]
[27:30] >> You are the villain there,
[27:32] >> right?
[27:32] >> But you're kind of the villain of being
[27:34] lazy at home. And I feel like you're
[27:35] almost taking it out. I'm just going and
[27:38] swiping,
[27:39] >> which doesn't necessarily help us in the
[27:41] end, right? As a household.
[27:43] >> Listen, if he is,
[27:44] >> sometimes you need like a break.
[27:46] >> I agree with that. And I want him to
[27:48] step up so you can, but you don't get
[27:50] revenge. You don't also bring down the
[27:53] household by being a [ __ ] menace on
[27:56] the outside. You do financially, though.
[27:59] >> Okay? So, listen. Just because someone's
[28:02] not stepping up at home doesn't mean you
[28:03] can just not step up outside the home.
[28:06] >> Okay.
[28:07] >> You can't it up.
[28:09] >> Can we take a little break?
[28:11] >> You need a break?
[28:12] >> Yeah. Can we take a little break?
[28:13] >> Okay. Well, take a break.
[28:14] >> I'm honestly very tired. I would not be
[28:16] crying right now. I'm very tired.
[28:18] >> That's okay. Your mother, you see that?
[28:22] Yeah, I see it.
[28:24] She She's not afraid to tell me when
[28:26] she's overloaded either.
[28:28] It would be nice if you listened.
[28:30] >> And it would also be nice if you didn't
[28:32] go spend money you don't have.
[28:34] >> Fair.
[28:35] >> Cuz that's going to add to the stresses
[28:36] of the household. A man not stepping up,
[28:38] not helping the house, that's going to
[28:40] be a reason for divorce at some point.
[28:41] >> Mhm.
[28:42] >> Financial [ __ ] in the house, that is a
[28:45] leading cause for divorce in this
[28:46] country. Do we want to get divorced?
[28:49] >> No.
[28:50] >> I don't read you guys as a couple that
[28:51] wants to get divorced. It's not
[28:52] something I would advocate for in you
[28:54] guys. I don't see that. But are we
[28:56] surprised that the household is rocky
[28:58] right now? No. When you both up in two
[29:01] very clear directions and neither of you
[29:03] seem like you want to make any ground in
[29:05] making those situations better. Like you
[29:07] make the good talk, but you don't seem
[29:09] like you're trying to do any better at
[29:10] the house. You don't sound like you're
[29:11] trying to do any better financially. No
[29:13] wonder he's not willing to. It feels
[29:14] like he's hiding [ __ ]
[29:16] >> I don't think he's hiding anything. He
[29:18] just isn't
[29:18] >> forthcoming. Communicate.
[29:20] >> Yeah. I'd be nervous too if you're going
[29:23] out there and around constantly
[29:25] and in the financial conversations I'm
[29:27] being had again again this is the pre-in
[29:30] a couple of the things that I said were
[29:31] kind of wrong earlier from what he said
[29:33] like the you know he was like a fine
[29:35] well you know we'll stick it out cuz you
[29:36] got pregnant well apparently that wasn't
[29:37] true cuz it was timeline issue and then
[29:39] one other thing I said was kind of
[29:41] incorrect that's cuz he told Lindsay
[29:43] that pre-in [ __ ] before you were coming
[29:45] on so it was going to be a defense
[29:47] mechanism so the story was going to be a
[29:49] little different anyway it sounds like
[29:50] that he was going to tell.
[29:52] >> Well, that's interesting.
[29:53] >> I don't know, but you guys say different
[29:55] things. So, I don't know if this was pre
[29:57] you coming on or not, but he always says
[29:59] that I'm always giving into her. I'm
[30:01] always giving into her is what he said.
[30:03] Is that true?
[30:05] >> Yeah, absolutely. What does that mean?
[30:08] >> Um, it means that I am very persuasive
[30:11] in my arguments
[30:13] for
[30:14] >> by that he said he says no and you get
[30:16] angry and then he's just like fine.
[30:18] >> I don't always get angry.
[30:21] I do not always get angry.
[30:23] >> I mean, I live with the world.
[30:24] >> Any
[30:26] any time that you have said, "I want to
[30:29] get this. I feel like we need this." And
[30:31] I say, "Well, no, we don't we don't have
[30:33] the money to spend on that or we that's
[30:35] just not something that we need right
[30:36] now." Then it is immediately anger. I
[30:41] mean, let's go back to a couple months
[30:43] ago whenever you were wanting to get a
[30:45] Dyson vacuum. We we had two working
[30:48] vacuums at the house.
[30:50] >> They And okay, they are both really
[30:53] really crappy. One of we got one of them
[30:55] from your parents
[30:57] >> and I didn't say it had to be a Dyson. I
[30:59] just said I really like this one because
[31:00] it doesn't have to plug in. We don't
[31:02] have to carry it up and down the stairs.
[31:04] And as the person who cleans the house,
[31:06] I think that I get a little bit of
[31:09] leeway in what I would like to use to
[31:12] clean our home.
[31:12] >> Women love to clean. They bowl of to
[31:16] cook steak.
[31:17] >> Dude, all women are the exact same. My
[31:19] girlfriend's asking for the exact same
[31:22] thing. Look. And you
[31:23] >> And we have cleaners. So, what the is
[31:25] happening?
[31:25] >> I would kill for a cleaner.
[31:27] >> Okay. Well, they're cheap and you guys
[31:28] make a lot of money. I'll be honest.
[31:29] Which, by the way, you specifically
[31:31] wanted the Dyson because the last time
[31:33] we tried to find a cheaper alternative
[31:34] to Dyson,
[31:36] >> we got something else and it broke very
[31:37] quickly and then we replaced it with
[31:40] something different. Had two working
[31:41] vacuums at the time that she was
[31:43] requesting this Dyson. And I said, "No,
[31:45] that's crazy expensive. We don't have
[31:47] the money to spend on that. We have two
[31:48] working vacuums." Immediately, she goes,
[31:51] "When we combined finances, you said
[31:53] that you weren't going to be
[31:54] controlling, but this is the exact
[31:57] controlling behavior that I was trying
[31:58] to
[31:58] >> asking for a vacuum."
[32:00] >> Yeah. Apparently, denying a vacuum when
[32:02] we have two working vacuums is
[32:04] controlling. when one of them weighs
[32:06] like 20 pounds and you're carrying it up
[32:08] the stairs and you're the one doing the
[32:09] most of the work and the other one is so
[32:11] small and compact that it's not meant
[32:13] for like room vacuuming. Our whole
[32:16] upstairs is three bed four bedrooms is
[32:19] the master and three other bedrooms and
[32:21] it's all carpeted.
[32:22] >> Yeah. How much the
[32:25] >> one of them was like 500.
[32:26] >> Guys, you make $200,000 a year. I don't
[32:28] think you understand.
[32:29] >> But we're we're hemorrhaging money
[32:31] already.
[32:31] >> I agree. I think now this is a household
[32:34] beneficial tool potentially. But but
[32:37] where's all the money going that would
[32:39] go to that instead?
[32:40] >> The miscellaneous
[32:41] >> [ __ ] billion monthly payments that we
[32:44] have to make.
[32:44] >> It's a billion monthly payments. It's
[32:46] eating out. But
[32:48] out if I had help.
[32:50] >> You can't do that. You can't do that and
[32:53] get that kind of [ __ ] or well get a
[32:55] vacuum like that if the money goes to
[32:56] the [ __ ]
[32:57] >> You can't $1,000 went out to you last
[32:59] month. $1,000. You make $200,000 a
[33:01] month, but $1,000 going to food eating
[33:04] out actually cuz groceries is was an
[33:06] additional th000. So 2,000 going to food
[33:09] that immediately means no, you probably
[33:11] don't get to have a $500 vacuum and
[33:14] [ __ ] Especially when unknown shopping
[33:15] things we don't 100% know. Could be
[33:17] [ __ ] could be not. Was an
[33:18] additional $1,800
[33:20] >> the previous month. 1,800 other large
[33:23] purchases. These are big picture
[33:25] purchases. Might be [ __ ] might not
[33:26] be. 2,400.
[33:30] So now we have a potential [ __ ]
[33:32] amount of Oh, and then miscellaneous
[33:34] [ __ ] An additional $75,000 by the
[33:36] way. So what are we at? We're like four
[33:39] potential four $5,000 in [ __ ]
[33:42] >> potential has made it in the middle and
[33:44] say minimum $2,000 on [ __ ]
[33:46] >> Yeah, you could get a vacuum. Why are we
[33:49] spending 2,000 on [ __ ] instead?
[33:51] >> Because it's random little things that
[33:52] we want.
[33:53] >> Well, there you go. Then you don't get
[33:55] to have the big thing. Even if it makes
[33:56] your life better, you don't get to.
[33:59] >> So, it's all her.
[34:01] >> Yes. Absolutely.
[34:02] >> So, you didn't pay someone $500 to get a
[34:04] pair of boots, which you've never
[34:06] gotten.
[34:06] >> You didn't pay someone to do that. And
[34:08] you've never gotten the money back.
[34:09] You've never ordered clothes from Adidas
[34:11] online.
[34:12] >> You've never paid for golf.
[34:13] >> $70 of clothes.
[34:15] >> Okay. But you've never paid for golf.
[34:16] You didn't go buy a new a new a new iron
[34:18] for golf and spend a little bit more and
[34:20] get other things.
[34:21] >> Yeah. Yeah, I used I used I used a $300
[34:23] gift card that your sister gave me.
[34:25] >> And you spent more than that?
[34:26] >> Yeah, by $90 for two for two clubs.
[34:30] >> It's all me though. And you didn't go
[34:31] buy these new pants?
[34:32] >> Not these pants?
[34:33] >> Oh, well, you bought
[34:34] >> I had these for over a year.
[34:36] >> But it's all me.
[34:38] >> It's all her.
[34:38] >> Yeah, I see how the conversation's going
[34:40] in this household now. So, you just kind
[34:42] of like uh blow up.
[34:44] >> Okay.
[34:45] >> Yeah.
[34:46] >> But rightfully so. You're sitting here
[34:49] telling me I'm the You're You're sitting
[34:51] here telling me I'm the problem. That
[34:52] I'm the one who spends all this money on
[34:54] clothes and all of this money on random
[34:56] [ __ ] I have
[34:58] >> what? Four four outfits in the last I
[35:00] don't know 6 months, four months.
[35:02] >> I mean, Kelly told Lindsay that she
[35:04] holds grudges against you and I feel
[35:07] like I'm seeing them now.
[35:08] >> What are these grudges? Like cuz if that
[35:11] continues consistently, that's not
[35:13] necessarily healthy at all.
[35:14] >> Continuous behavior that's never
[35:15] changed.
[35:16] >> What's the grudges though? It's grudges
[35:18] against money. It's him telling me that
[35:20] I shouldn't go do stuff and then blaming
[35:21] me for our financial mishaps when he
[35:24] also spends money on random [ __ ] $25
[35:28] every other night at the gas station on
[35:29] gas station food. You love to cook so
[35:31] much. Cook your lunch and take it to
[35:33] work.
[35:35] >> I mean, when I have the kids and I have
[35:37] to keep them quiet, it makes it
[35:39] difficult to make those meals during the
[35:41] day.
[35:41] >> What are we talking about? You can meal
[35:42] prep a couple times a week
[35:43] >> and you can open the back door, can go,
[35:46] "Oh, can we bleep?"
[35:47] >> Yeah. All All their names are bleeped,
[35:49] >> but um he can go outside and play. The
[35:51] other one can sit in a high chair and
[35:53] watch you work. He loves to watch you do
[35:55] things. And then our oldest goes
[35:56] upstairs and plays and does whatever she
[35:58] wants to do or she hangs out with me 98%
[36:01] of the time. So, I'm very confused.
[36:04] >> Yeah. But then the second one of them,
[36:06] let's say the middle child comes back
[36:08] inside and he starts making noise
[36:11] because he's a rambunctious almost
[36:12] 2-year-old. The second he makes a sound,
[36:15] it's blowing up my phone. I'm on a call.
[36:17] I'm on a call.
[36:18] >> If I'm on a call, I'm on a call. That's
[36:19] a serious thing. I have to work. If you
[36:21] want, I can quit my job and our $96,000
[36:24] additional income can go out the window.
[36:26] >> Obviously, that's not what I want.
[36:27] >> Okay.
[36:28] >> But when I'm getting those Exactly. I'm
[36:31] recognizing that your work is important
[36:33] and that you have to be on those calls.
[36:35] But when I'm getting those those
[36:37] messages the second I'm trying to do
[36:39] something.
[36:39] >> Am I on a call 7 days a week, 24 hours a
[36:42] day?
[36:42] >> I mean, obviously not.
[36:43] >> I know. I schedule my stuff for two
[36:45] specific days a week that are my calls
[36:47] are my days are filled with calls back
[36:49] toback. And 90% of those calls I'm on
[36:51] mute. You can come park one with me,
[36:54] park one with my sister, and you can
[36:57] meal prep. You can cook dinner for the
[36:59] afternoon or evening. You can put stuff
[37:00] in a crock pot. Hey, that takes so much
[37:02] off my mental load and so much off my
[37:04] plate.
[37:06] >> Okay.
[37:08] >> Wait, the sister lives with you guys.
[37:09] The sister that you said could help.
[37:11] >> Mhm.
[37:12] >> But she doesn't actually help that much.
[37:13] We're figuring out.
[37:14] >> Well, but via request or she's just not
[37:16] stepping up. Is she asked to help and
[37:18] she doesn't?
[37:19] >> Um, sometimes yes, sometimes no.
[37:21] >> Is she renting from you guys or is it
[37:22] like a temporary?
[37:23] >> So, the the agreement was that she was
[37:25] going to move in with us. uh where we
[37:27] live was going to be a better place for
[37:28] her than where she was living with their
[37:30] parents. And instead of paying rent, she
[37:33] was going to help out with the kids and
[37:35] >> help clean and help clean.
[37:37] >> So, she's supposed to be stepping up a
[37:39] little more than you for the kids.
[37:41] >> She also has a full-time job in which
[37:42] she works Tuesday through Saturday,
[37:45] >> but she's not paying rent.
[37:46] >> No,
[37:46] >> then make her pay rent.
[37:48] >> Okay. Well, right.
[37:49] >> Like she she has to pay in one way help
[37:51] with the kids or rent,
[37:52] >> right? So if if she's not helping out in
[37:54] the originally agreed upon way, it's got
[37:56] to be financially,
[37:57] >> which he never goes and asks her for
[38:00] help. So it's hard for her to just offer
[38:03] it if you're not going to. And circling
[38:06] back, I we had both asked him, "Put the
[38:09] kids with one of us if you need help or
[38:10] whatever." And then he just didn't. And
[38:12] then toddler coloring on the couch,
[38:15] >> right? And then even even though she
[38:18] offers to help sometimes, I still in
[38:21] deep in my heart, these are my children.
[38:23] They're my responsibility.
[38:25] >> Your responsibility.
[38:26] >> So I I have a little bit of trouble
[38:28] pushing the burden of my own children
[38:30] off on someone who
[38:31] >> But that's literally why she's there.
[38:33] >> I think this is kind of toxic, guys. I
[38:36] think it's it's gotten to such a toxic
[38:38] point and it's going to take a big lift
[38:40] to pull it out. just toxicity with the
[38:42] sister, toxicity with teacher. She even
[38:43] said just like she doesn't even like
[38:46] getting gifts from you because it feels
[38:47] like there's always strings attached.
[38:49] Like what the if we can't even give
[38:50] gifts at this point.
[38:52] >> Yeah. I
[38:52] >> Where is this relationship?
[38:54] >> I don't understand.
[38:55] >> Someone someone educate me on that that
[38:58] topic please.
[38:59] >> We had a fight on my birthday so we did
[39:01] not celebrate my birthday and then 2 or
[39:03] 3 days later he takes me to get a locket
[39:06] that I have been I have been wanting a
[39:08] locket for a while. It's one of the
[39:10] things I've consistently gone back to.
[39:11] I've I wanted a locket. Um so 2 or 3
[39:14] days later after I said fight, after I
[39:16] questioned, is that what we're doing for
[39:17] my birthday? We're just going to fight
[39:19] and then do nothing. Then he gets the
[39:21] locket. Um I had mentioned, I don't
[39:24] know, in a few a few times over the
[39:26] years that having nice underwear is a
[39:29] good thing, but then he buys it after
[39:31] fights or for whatever reason and
[39:33] phrases it like, well, I mean, it's for
[39:35] me too.
[39:37] It's no longer a gift if you're getting
[39:39] it for yourself and the obligation is
[39:40] for me to
[39:42] >> that's strings attached.
[39:44] I don't know. And as far as the birthday
[39:46] thing goes, we had a plan for her
[39:48] birthday. My parents offered to watch
[39:50] all of our children so that we could go
[39:51] have a nice dinner for her birthday. And
[39:53] I don't remember what caused what
[39:57] >> something for our home that would
[39:59] improve it. That way we could improve
[40:00] equity whenever we sell. And instead of
[40:03] spending $300 on a steak dinner at Basta
[40:05] that we should go get stuff to make a
[40:07] patio.
[40:08] >> Yeah, that's right.
[40:09] >> And then we had something else.
[40:12] >> Yep. So instead of instead of going to
[40:13] dinner, she made the decision and I
[40:15] verified this several times with her,
[40:17] >> which is fine. Then we were no longer
[40:19] going to do the dinner. Instead, we were
[40:22] going to allocate that money into
[40:23] supplies to build a patio. And then who
[40:27] knows what we thought about that day.
[40:28] She said, "Screw it. We're done. We're
[40:30] not We're not building this patio.
[40:33] And then
[40:35] we didn't And then we didn't do anything
[40:37] on her birthday. Okay. I don't guys,
[40:41] this is just what the Everything's so a
[40:44] villain fight. Horrible. But he did tell
[40:48] Lindsay something before you were
[40:49] supposed to come on. He said he hasn't
[40:52] had the stomach or the will to say it.
[40:54] You remember what that was?
[40:57] >> Mm- No.
[40:59] >> Oh no. Now you conveniently forget.
[41:01] >> I don't remember.
[41:03] >> Brother,
[41:04] >> I've slept since then.
[41:06] >> He has an out plan.
[41:11] >> I have an out plan.
[41:13] >> Buddy, these are your own words, man.
[41:16] Though you're not there yet,
[41:19] and he hasn't said it to her, but he
[41:21] could walk away if they don't get their
[41:23] finances in order. Not there yet.
[41:27] but is waiting for the right
[41:29] conversation that would give him the
[41:32] leeway to say it.
[41:33] >> Well, we've had tons of those
[41:34] conversations.
[41:36] >> What?
[41:37] >> We I've had tons of conversations where
[41:39] I said, "This is not where I want to be
[41:40] in 5 years. I don't want to be here
[41:42] financially or like relationship wise,
[41:44] marriage-wise. I don't want to be in a
[41:46] relationship where we're fighting
[41:48] constantly where I'm doing 90% of the
[41:49] household work and child raising after
[41:52] birthing them and feeding them. I don't
[41:54] want to do this if you're not going to
[41:56] be a partic like if you're not going to
[41:57] be an active parent.
[41:59] >> So both of you were getting
[42:01] >> we had those conversations.
[42:03] >> How freaking like
[42:04] >> I don't have an out. I don't have like a
[42:06] backup plan. I'm not trying to have
[42:08] >> How many times have you talked about
[42:09] your plan for if you leave me?
[42:11] >> If we if I leave you, I'm living alone
[42:15] and the kids will go to you for a week
[42:17] and back and forth. That is that is
[42:19] literally the plan. That's called
[42:21] divorce.
[42:22] >> Why? How frequently is this brought up,
[42:25] guys? I need the rat.
[42:26] >> She has had several conversations about,
[42:29] you know, or several conversations about
[42:34] leaving me. The idea of leaving me. It's
[42:36] not something that is in my head is the
[42:39] the topic.
[42:39] >> But you have an out.
[42:40] >> But you have an out. Yeah, you're
[42:41] talking.
[42:42] >> So, it clearly is in your head.
[42:45] >> You can't say one thing and then act
[42:46] like another and say that it's not there
[42:48] when it is.
[42:48] >> Not to Lindsay, but one of our
[42:49] pre-producers before hers is where the
[42:51] message is coming from. I mean, I I I
[42:53] hate to sound like I'm backtracking, but
[42:55] I I truly feel like that is a
[42:57] misunderstanding of the words that I
[42:59] said to her.
[43:00] >> I really do.
[43:00] >> Before she was supposed to come on.
[43:02] >> Mhm.
[43:03] >> Um
[43:05] >> how close have you gotten to leaving?
[43:07] >> Um
[43:08] >> I know one of you have left before and
[43:10] then the kid.
[43:12] >> Yeah, pretty pretty close.
[43:14] >> When?
[43:15] >> Um a few a few years ago.
[43:18] >> It just
[43:19] >> we were living with his parents. He
[43:21] refuses to say anything. Well, we had we
[43:23] had just left and we moved down here and
[43:25] then we had to find jobs. So, we stay
[43:27] with his parents and he refuses.
[43:30] God, I could not tell you why to stand
[43:32] up and say anything to his parents.
[43:34] Like, his dad will not turn on the air
[43:35] conditioner upstairs and that's where we
[43:37] were living and he will go up there and
[43:38] turn up to like 80 82 degrees in the
[43:40] middle of summer, but then leave all the
[43:42] doors open and heat rises in a two-story
[43:44] home. Um, so it would be 98 degrees up
[43:47] there and it would take like all night
[43:50] to cool down and he would just never say
[43:52] anything and never defend me or our kids
[43:55] or anything.
[43:57] >> You almost laughed.
[43:59] >> Yeah.
[44:01] >> So I didn't stand up to him at that time
[44:03] because
[44:05] his only request was to stop keeping it
[44:07] at 69°
[44:09] >> which it wasn't. It was at 7
[44:10] >> all day every single day. So when it
[44:14] wasn't so
[44:14] >> it was at 75 and it's hard not to keep
[44:16] it at a lower temperature when they
[44:18] don't even run the downstairs one and
[44:20] all that heat is rising. So even if it
[44:22] was set at a at like a set temperature
[44:25] if they would have turned on their
[44:26] downstairs one hey we just had this
[44:28] conversation about HVAC's and how if you
[44:30] turn them off it makes them work harder
[44:32] and your energy bills increase because
[44:34] you're running more power to get them
[44:35] back to a normal temperature. That's
[44:38] what continued to happen because you
[44:39] never stepped up and said anything.
[44:42] >> Be honest here, guys. Has anyone ever
[44:44] looked for apartments? Just on the DL.
[44:46] Just Just looking to look.
[44:47] >> He told me to and I did.
[44:49] >> Oh, you told her to?
[44:51] >> We had a big issue
[44:52] >> around that time. We were going
[44:54] >> What the Look, we we were going through
[44:57] a serious very serious rough spot in our
[45:00] relationship. And at that time, I wasn't
[45:03] sure if I was willing to stay in the
[45:05] relationship
[45:06] >> with the dad thing.
[45:09] >> That was it.
[45:10] >> There there were other things going on.
[45:12] Uh, one of those things is on it's on
[45:13] our list that I don't want to bring up.
[45:15] >> Okay. I don't think I know it, but
[45:17] >> but no, because of what was going on
[45:19] there, I wasn't sure if we were going to
[45:21] continue in our relationship. I
[45:23] suggested that she start looking for an
[45:25] apartment and she looked for a little
[45:27] bit and ultimately we decided that we
[45:29] were just going to stay in our
[45:30] relationship. we were going to try to
[45:31] work through it. And for that issue, we
[45:33] have
[45:34] >> Yeah, we have. We have for that. But
[45:36] that's like the only time where we have
[45:38] really considered either that's the only
[45:42] time I've really considered leaving. Um,
[45:45] and then I mean there's like the little
[45:47] petty squables where we talk about it
[45:49] and I tell him, I don't want to do this.
[45:51] if this is what our life is going to be
[45:52] like. I don't I I don't want to feel
[45:55] like a freaking brood mayor where I just
[45:57] get bread all the time and then I it's
[45:59] my responsibility to have a job and
[46:00] clean the entire house and take care of
[46:02] all of the kids. That's a lot for one
[46:03] person.
[46:03] >> What the
[46:06] >> That's literally what I feel.
[46:07] >> I don't want you I don't want you to
[46:09] feel like you are just a brood mayor and
[46:12] I'm the stud that keeps putting kids in
[46:14] you. But I mean when I when I'm on 2
[46:19] hours of sleep after being awake for 48
[46:22] hours
[46:22] >> which I agree with that part another
[46:24] week work 25 hours
[46:26] >> right but so after that 25 hours of or
[46:30] 24 hours of work there's times where
[46:32] I've worked or been awake for 48 to 50
[46:36] plus hours through those days of work
[46:39] and now I'm responsible for these
[46:42] children
[46:43] >> your children.
[46:44] >> Yes. Yes. They are they are my children.
[46:46] Absolutely. And I have to do something
[46:50] and keep them entertained and keep them
[46:53] quiet enough for her to work.
[46:55] >> Do you guys totally trust each other?
[46:57] >> I don't trust him with our kids. No,
[46:59] >> that's not
[47:01] the greatest thing to hear from our
[47:03] wife.
[47:04] >> I've told him that before that I do not
[47:06] trust his capabilities and taking care
[47:08] of our children.
[47:10] >> He can't stay awake. He I had to go wake
[47:12] him up last night to put our our middle
[47:15] child down cuz he fell asleep putting
[47:17] him to bed so that way he would get up
[47:18] and take a shower.
[47:19] >> Diet. What are you doing? You're fat.
[47:21] I'm fat, too. But like I'm not like
[47:24] responsible for people's lives and
[47:25] children. So if you can't stay awake or
[47:29] having issues,
[47:30] >> right? Well, I typically have to rely on
[47:34] caffeine to keep me awake because
[47:35] >> Right. Why not get healthier?
[47:38] >> I I've tried. It's It's a
[47:40] >> tried.
[47:41] >> I've I've tried. I've tried.
[47:43] >> I've I've been thinner in the past. I'm
[47:45] just about at the biggest I've ever been
[47:46] right now.
[47:47] >> Oh, that's not good. No [ __ ] You're
[47:48] falling asleep.
[47:49] >> Yeah.
[47:49] >> Fatty.
[47:51] >> What the Why aren't you eating less or
[47:53] just better?
[47:54] >> Better. I definitely need to be better.
[47:56] I do work out. I take I I do.
[47:58] >> He does.
[47:59] >> I take There's a few
[48:00] >> I take the boys to the gym with me.
[48:01] >> You can't outwork a bad diet, right?
[48:03] That's my issue. I'm relatively active
[48:05] sometimes.
[48:06] >> We've been playing Russ recently. Now
[48:07] I'm not. RIP. Worth it.
[48:10] >> I don't I like just eat better, dude.
[48:13] >> I know. I I
[48:14] >> Are you the donut and coffee guy?
[48:16] >> No. No. Not the donut. I really I really
[48:18] try to stay away from donuts.
[48:20] >> The coffee is okay.
[48:21] >> But I I Coffee is a Coffee is a problem.
[48:24] >> What? What? What? What's wrong with
[48:25] coffee?
[48:25] >> It's a problem for me. I'm
[48:27] >> Why?
[48:28] >> Because I I need it. I'm addicted.
[48:30] >> Well, yeah, but like caffeine is one of
[48:32] those like
[48:33] >> addictions where it's like not even like
[48:35] an addiction.
[48:36] >> It's like upside. No, it is an
[48:37] addiction. This is like upside though.
[48:39] >> Yeah. Unless you're just like, "What are
[48:40] you down?" Like,
[48:43] >> it could be. Can we
[48:44] >> What the [ __ ] are you on about?
[48:45] >> I'm just saying like if we're talking
[48:46] about addictions, at least he's addicted
[48:48] to caffeine. And I
[48:49] >> That's true.
[48:49] >> Okay. Here's Gamer Subs. Just like you
[48:51] make your coffee at home, make your
[48:52] energy drinks at home. It's delicious.
[48:54] 40 cents a serving when you use my 10%

[49:06] cents a serving. So, there you go. that
[49:07] should help but I mean out you can't out
[49:10] eventually you have a baseline then you
[49:12] have to just continuously up caffeine so
[49:14] just like anything else right that's the
[49:16] issue there if you're always chasing it
[49:17] then you can get to a dangerous amount
[49:19] >> um which for larger people fatties is
[49:22] not necessarily best for the heart what
[49:25] are you eating man cuz if you're falling
[49:27] asleep I'm concerned I'm concerned like
[49:29] your health must not be the best
[49:31] >> so I mean I kind of just eat what's
[49:34] what's already available like when I'm
[49:36] at home. Really, when I'm at home,
[49:38] that's when I'm eating at my worst
[49:41] because we're not we're not always
[49:43] taking the time to prepare meals. We
[49:44] don't always have good stuff for making,
[49:47] you know, lunches and, you know, I I
[49:51] just kind of eat whatever I can.
[49:54] >> We do have all the stuff to cook,
[49:55] though. I spend $1,000 a month on
[49:57] grocery and I build out menus, so we do
[49:59] have stuff in there to cook. The issue
[50:01] is that what he's saying we don't have
[50:03] food is we don't have easily ready food.
[50:08] >> Meal prepping and THEN YOU HAVE TO cook
[50:09] it.
[50:10] >> Meal prep a couple times a week, guys.
[50:11] What the [ __ ] are we doing? I love meal
[50:13] prepping. It makes it so much easier.
[50:14] >> Why don't you
[50:15] >> I just I just struggle to actually make
[50:17] the time to
[50:18] >> 25 hours of the week.
[50:21] >> Huh?
[50:22] >> Yeah. 2 weeks and free stuff. We didn't
[50:25] have a 56 hour.
[50:26] >> Not going into detail, but is there ever
[50:28] a situation where you might be required
[50:30] to run?
[50:31] >> Absolutely.
[50:32] >> Okay,
[50:33] >> buddy.
[50:34] >> I'm faster than I look, brother.

[51:37] Well, they're going to force you to use

[51:45] Rocket Mortgage. Guess what they want to
[51:47] sell you in the end. Then there's the
[51:49] new guy on the block, Monarch. Hundreds
[51:52] of millions of dollars of private equity
[51:53] raising so far. But private equity
[51:55] doesn't have the best track record when

[53:39] What hits our account on a monthly
[53:40] basis? I didn't get that. I know your
[53:41] guys' gross income is large, but so my
[53:45] checks come in every two weeks at
[53:49] Oh, what is it? 30 just about 3,100.
[53:53] >> Okay. And then you
[53:54] >> I get 56 a month.
[53:57] >> Yeah. hers come in at about 2855.
[54:01] >> Okay, so 11,800 now. Like you guys are
[54:05] killing it. It's so upsetting. And the
[54:07] it's always the people who are like
[54:08] killing it on the income scale that get
[54:10] even worse on the finance scale cuz you
[54:12] get access to more tools that'll destroy
[54:14] you cuz you are not credit card people.
[54:16] >> Yeah,
[54:17] >> you're not. WANT PROOF OF IT?
[54:19] Quicksilver one. Who's is this? Are we
[54:21] all on cards together? Buddy, what are
[54:22] you doing? I thought she was the
[54:24] problem.
[54:24] >> Huh? She Huh?
[54:26] >> Yeah. What are you talking about? This
[54:28] is a big problem right here.
[54:29] >> Mhm.
[54:30] >> You know what happened on this card?
[54:33] >> I I don't know. Is that the one I
[54:34] wanted? Cuz I know you have two.
[54:35] >> Yeah, that's the one that you're an
[54:36] authorized user on.
[54:37] >> Maybe you are making problems almost 2
[54:39] years.
[54:40] >> Is that true?
[54:41] >> Uh
[54:42] >> my card is locked. I haven't used it. I
[54:44] went to go get gas and I was like, "Hey,
[54:47] I don't have the debit card with me and
[54:48] I'm at a gas station that doesn't do tap
[54:50] pay. Can I use this?" And he didn't
[54:52] respond quick enough. So, I left and
[54:54] went somewhere else with Tap Pay, but
[54:55] the card is locked. But I haven't used
[54:56] it in well over a year.
[54:59] >> Card is locked.
[55:00] >> Yeah, cuz I'm not I'm on the account.
[55:02] >> You're locked.
[55:03] >> My card is locked.
[55:04] >> My card. You're locked.
[55:05] >> Well, I'm I'm on the account. I don't
[55:07] have access to it. I can't even see like
[55:09] the balances on it.
[55:10] >> What? Why? I I just made her an
[55:12] authorized user and the I mean the app
[55:15] has always been on my
[55:16] >> access to the account.
[55:19] >> I don't know. You've got you've got a
[55:21] Capital One card of your own, too. So,
[55:23] take that up with them.
[55:24] >> But you can't see it.
[55:26] Okay, how can we say she's the problem
[55:28] when you had a balance? He had a balance
[55:29] of $927. Okay, that's large. It acrews
[55:31] interest, whatever. With your income,
[55:33] you can kind of pay it off. But he made
[55:34] the minimum payment of $35 only.
[55:36] >> Mhm.
[55:36] >> Nothing else. No progress. Avalanche.
[55:39] Avalanche. And then he spent $2,000.
[55:43] >> Mhm.
[55:43] >> Why the did you put $35 to it if you're
[55:46] going to spend $2,000
[55:48] acrewing interest? $57.66.
[55:51] New balance $2,9001.
[55:54] minimum monthly payment $87.
[55:58] Uh your kid, oldest kid will be not only
[56:01] out of high school but will also be out
[56:02] of college and also a couple years into
[56:06] his career
[56:08] because this takes 17 years to pay off
[56:10] minimum payments only with no additional
[56:12] purchases which you're incapable of. So
[56:14] what the is the problem? That doesn't
[56:16] look like problem to me or her. That
[56:18] looks like you. What are you talking
[56:20] about? HUH? WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
[56:24] Rack attack.
[56:25] >> Yeah, we bought a uh car rooftop cargo
[56:30] system to go a credit card. You could
[56:34] afford it, but why not put it on? You
[56:36] can't pay off this credit card. You're
[56:37] not paying off this credit card. You
[56:38] only put the minimum towards it. Why not
[56:40] put it on the debit card? Duh.
[56:42] >> Because we didn't have $1,800.
[56:44] >> Did you get the rooftop thing?
[56:47] >> We needed it.
[56:48] >> Why did you need it? We were going to
[56:50] die.
[56:51] >> Well, obviously we weren't going to die.
[56:52] >> Well, then why'd you need it?
[56:54] >> So, we were taking a road trip to see
[56:55] her parents.
[56:56] >> Okay. Didn't need it then.
[56:57] >> We've got her We've got her SUV that is
[57:00] loaded down with children plus the
[57:03] kennel and a dog in the back.
[57:06] >> Didn't need.
[57:06] >> And then we didn't have any room for our
[57:08] stuff. You didn't need to go on the road
[57:10] trip to survive.
[57:13] What the are we doing?
[57:15] >> I think it's important to see family.
[57:16] >> I think it is as well. It sounds like
[57:17] they can afford to come down. My my I
[57:20] won't let them stay with me.
[57:21] >> What?
[57:22] >> They they smoke and I don't like them
[57:24] smoking around my children and they
[57:27] >> a couple days at a hotel's cheaper than
[57:28] this cuz you spent almost $2,000
[57:30] >> and they refuse to stay in a hotel. They
[57:32] refuse to get an Airbnb.
[57:34] >> They they only will stay at my house. Um
[57:37] >> and you won't allow that?
[57:38] >> I won't allow that.
[57:39] >> What the is wrong with these people?
[57:40] What is wrong with you people? What the
[57:41] is happening?
[57:42] >> Well, I've made very clear rules. Don't
[57:43] smoke around my kids. I don't care.
[57:45] >> Yeah, that's fair. Why can't they stay
[57:46] at a hotel or Airbnb to But why can't
[57:47] they just not smoke?
[57:49] >> Okay. Well, they're addicted to it. I
[57:50] would also agree, but
[57:51] >> nicotine patches exist.
[57:52] >> Okay. Insens and all that good stuff.
[57:54] Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. I agree. But
[57:56] also, why can't they stay at an area?
[57:58] >> Because my mother is worse with her
[57:59] finances than I am.
[58:02] >> What do you think?
[58:02] >> I agree. It's important to go. You
[58:04] didn't necessarily have to. And even if
[58:06] still, there may have been cheaper
[58:07] solutions.
[58:08] >> 2,000 bucks there. 2,000.
[58:11] >> Something that we're going to continue
[58:12] using.
[58:12] >> Sure. And you know what else you'll
[58:14] continue doing? Paying interest on it.
[58:15] cuz you don't do more than a minimum
[58:17] payment. Then you went inside some store
[58:19] and I think got some like energy drinks
[58:20] or coffee or something.
[58:21] >> Yeah, probably.
[58:21] >> And then Amazon. You did some Amazon.
[58:24] Okay, let me look at this. Amazon.
[58:25] >> Amazon, sir.
[58:26] >> Let me see.
[58:26] >> I haven't spent on Amazon.
[58:28] >> So, you do spend on this card. This is
[58:29] on Amazon. You're not fully locked out.
[58:30] It says it's attached to the Amazon
[58:32] account probably.
[58:34] >> So, let us see here. Ah, iPhone. Okay.
[58:37] What the is wrong with you? What the is
[58:39] wrong with you?
[58:40] >> What do you mean? What? Why do
[58:41] >> you have 15% battery on your phone?
[58:43] We listened to stuff on on my
[58:46] >> plug it into the car. Let it charge.
[58:49] >> I'm sorry.
[58:50] >> What are you doing? 15% at before noon.
[58:53] >> I don't know, man.
[58:54] >> I didn't charge it last night.
[58:55] >> What the is wrong with you?
[58:58] >> I was tired. I was packing up diaper
[59:00] bags and gathering everything.
[59:01] >> How much of a disaster someone is to me
[59:03] if I see them low battery before noon?
[59:05] Their life's a failure.
[59:08] >> Okay.
[59:08] >> Oh, come on. You got to charge your
[59:10] phone. You know how easy easy it is to
[59:12] plug it in somewhere?
[59:15] >> Oh, I did it all on the way up here.
[59:18] >> Plugged my phone.
[59:18] >> Oh, at least you have a way to get back,
[59:20] I guess. So, home master hardware. Okay.
[59:22] It's like some hinges.
[59:24] >> Yeah, those are hinges and a door handle
[59:25] for a screen door for our backpack.
[59:28] >> Some patches. Lots of kids things. A
[59:30] remote.
[59:31] >> Um, those are It's an ice pack.
[59:35] >> A fake plant. We didn't need that to
[59:36] survive. A clock. We didn't need to
[59:38] survive.
[59:38] >> That's for my office. We didn't pay for
[59:40] that.
[59:40] That's for my That's for my office at
[59:42] work.
[59:42] >> Office chair. Well, that's good. Yeah.
[59:44] So, um those work rellated purchases get
[59:47] ref or reimbured
[59:50] rug, pillow, all that stuff.
[59:51] >> Yeah. All of that.
[59:52] >> Okay. And the two chairs,
[59:53] >> all of that until you hit the desk.
[59:55] >> Okay. So, the desk was you.
[59:57] >> Well, no. Like that is
[59:58] >> so after that. Yeah. So, the key lock
[1:00:00] box.
[1:00:01] >> Oh, that's also work.
[1:00:02] >> Okay. Well, what the [ __ ] you talking
[1:00:03] about then? The trash bin
[1:00:05] >> that we we bought a trash can
[1:00:08] >> for our home. That's not the worst. I'm
[1:00:10] just surprised you didn't have one. We
[1:00:11] did.
[1:00:12] >> Well, we did, but Well, then what are we
[1:00:13] doing? These are the small things we
[1:00:15] don't need to do when we're trying to
[1:00:16] pay off that. If you already had trash,
[1:00:18] then there we go. We're okay,
[1:00:19] >> right? But it
[1:00:20] >> right. Cookie cutters. Did you need the
[1:00:23] rectangle cookie cutters? You can do
[1:00:24] this.
[1:00:25] >> I did not need those. You're
[1:00:26] >> So, these are the little things. Okay.
[1:00:28] What the are we doing as a society where
[1:00:31] we're getting a preschool graduation
[1:00:34] >> because they weren't doing graduation
[1:00:36] for her
[1:00:36] >> because it's preschool
[1:00:38] >> kindergarten and I might be a but I have
[1:00:42] graduation photos of myself
[1:00:45] passage
[1:00:45] >> you want to be like smokers
[1:00:47] >> no
[1:00:49] >> but it's a right of passage
[1:00:51] >> you don't not graduate kindergarten
[1:00:53] >> I mean
[1:00:54] >> she had how how much was the the cap and
[1:00:57] gown
[1:00:57] >> I have $1.
[1:00:59] >> It was $18. I have one memory from
[1:01:02] preschool. Other than that, no one else
[1:01:04] has actually no kindergarten. One
[1:01:06] memory. Don't arrest me for this. It was
[1:01:07] illegal. I broke the law. I gas lit
[1:01:11] another kid in a line at the gymnasium
[1:01:13] to pull the fire alarm. He never showed
[1:01:15] up to school again.
[1:01:16] >> You're not the one that pulled the the
[1:01:18] fire alarm, so I think you're good.
[1:01:19] >> But I definitely did some manipulating
[1:01:21] to do it.
[1:01:22] >> But it's memory.
[1:01:22] >> That's the only memory I have. This
[1:01:24] person will not have any other memory
[1:01:25] other than when he illegally did
[1:01:27] something. You do you start holding
[1:01:30] memories from four years old school. Are
[1:01:33] they are they p from kindergarten? Are
[1:01:35] they pictured memories? Cuz remember a
[1:01:37] lot of times vivid memories from
[1:01:38] kindergarten.
[1:01:39] >> She has a memory like me. She remembers
[1:01:41] everything. I kid you not. And he can
[1:01:43] attest to that.
[1:01:43] >> Yeah. Plus the she was so happy to put
[1:01:45] that cap and gown.
[1:01:46] >> I'm getting a lot of pictures in the
[1:01:48] room.
[1:01:49] >> I'm so happy to take those pictures. I
[1:01:51] feel like $18 is money well spent.
[1:01:52] Remember, a lot of the vivid memories
[1:01:54] that we have when we're young children
[1:01:55] psychologically are usually like
[1:01:57] pictures that we construct into memories
[1:01:59] that don't actually fully exist.
[1:02:00] >> But it's memories for me.
[1:02:03] >> Oh,
[1:02:03] >> she's my first baby.
[1:02:04] >> Well, if it's for you, then you're being
[1:02:05] a selfish [ __ ] cuz you don't have the
[1:02:07] money
[1:02:09] >> cuz you got the pants as well. You got
[1:02:11] some low pow Christian shirts for women.
[1:02:14] >> It's just a t-shirt and pants, which to
[1:02:17] survive.
[1:02:18] >> Okay.
[1:02:18] >> Like we're trying to cut back right now.
[1:02:20] Dog whistle. That was for training
[1:02:22] because he said that our dog is not
[1:02:23] training.
[1:02:23] >> I'm okay with that one as a minimum.
[1:02:26] Meditation candles. Don't need it to
[1:02:28] survive. A
[1:02:29] >> meditation candle.
[1:02:30] >> It's the little candles for Bible study.
[1:02:33] Sorry.
[1:02:34] >> Well, [ __ ] off. She can study without
[1:02:37] candles.
[1:02:39] >> Right.
[1:02:41] >> I've never had I remember studying
[1:02:42] without candles.
[1:02:44] >> She can.
[1:02:45] >> Slow feeder dog bowl. That might make
[1:02:46] sense. Cookbook. Christian cookbook for
[1:02:48] beginners. You're paying the premium for
[1:02:50] what? What? What is the where what's the
[1:02:52] atheist cookbook?
[1:02:54] >> It's just a small cookbook and it
[1:02:55] >> that you paid a premium cuz it's
[1:02:57] Christian.
[1:02:58] >> Oh, maybe
[1:02:59] >> they marketed it to you and you paid a
[1:03:00] premium for it.
[1:03:01] >> Okay. We talked about it at my Bible
[1:03:02] study group and we all were going to do
[1:03:04] stuff and that's why
[1:03:05] >> they know you're poor as even though you
[1:03:07] make a lot of money.
[1:03:08] >> We don't talk about our finances there.
[1:03:10] >> Well, that seems like actually something
[1:03:11] kind of important to bring up in that
[1:03:14] community setting, but that's okay.
[1:03:16] Inflect killer spray. That's fine. I
[1:03:17] don't think we're getting a What is an
[1:03:19] atheist cookbook? Muslim cookbook. I get
[1:03:21] it. All of a sudden, you don't get pork
[1:03:22] and it gets scary. I understand.
[1:03:25] >> Atheist cookbook. I don't know. Would it
[1:03:27] be baby hearts?
[1:03:28] >> Is that what atheist eat?
[1:03:29] >> Maybe. I don't know.
[1:03:30] >> I don't think you needed a Christian
[1:03:32] cookbook. You paid the premium for it.
[1:03:34] Large arched felt bulletin board. They
[1:03:38] didn't need it to survive. Like, off
[1:03:40] guys. [ __ ] spending. What are we
[1:03:43] doing? And I'm sorry I triggered you
[1:03:45] with the Muslim cookbook because you
[1:03:46] were ranting beforehand how you're
[1:03:48] scared that you bought a house in an
[1:03:49] area that's being overrun by Muslims.
[1:03:51] And yes,
[1:03:51] >> I'm not scared. Dallas worth is, you
[1:03:54] know,
[1:03:54] >> I'm not scared. You know, Frisco.
[1:03:56] >> Yeah, we're like borderline
[1:03:59] is actually really nice, though. Frisco
[1:04:00] is a beautiful city.
[1:04:01] >> And it's not that they're It's not that
[1:04:02] it's bad. They're they're nice. It's
[1:04:04] just that they literally are overtaking
[1:04:07] everything. And those I mean, okay,
[1:04:10] they're overtaking everything and they
[1:04:12] don't have to pay the premium to ask
[1:04:14] for, I don't know, to paint their doors
[1:04:15] and change stuff in their front lawn
[1:04:17] that we do.
[1:04:18] >> What do you mean?
[1:04:19] >> Our HOA requires you pay a fee.
[1:04:21] >> That's your HOA.
[1:04:22] >> Yes, but they're all ran by um a whole
[1:04:25] family and that whole family lives in
[1:04:28] this HOA and they don't require anyone
[1:04:30] else to pay it. But then if I put
[1:04:34] something in, I tried and I had to pay
[1:04:36] that. But I I talked to a lady at school
[1:04:38] and she didn't have to pay it to get her
[1:04:40] flower beds. I wasn't trying to build
[1:04:41] out flower beds, but she built out like
[1:04:43] a rock board around her flower bed and
[1:04:45] she didn't have to pay for it.
[1:04:46] >> She didn't have to pay the the HOA
[1:04:48] approval fee, no application fee.
[1:04:51] >> No.
[1:04:52] >> It's the first thing he ranting to them
[1:04:54] that the schools celebrate the public
[1:04:57] schools celebrate Muslim holidays
[1:04:58] instead of Christian holidays. Correct.
[1:05:00] And I don't like it.
[1:05:01] >> It's interesting. My daughter came home
[1:05:03] and was talking about Ramadan and how we
[1:05:05] can celebrate it at home and I said we
[1:05:07] don't celebrate that. But that's
[1:05:08] wonderful that you learned it.
[1:05:10] >> Okay.
[1:05:11] >> I learned about Ramadan in school.
[1:05:13] >> No, they don't. They did like they did a
[1:05:16] holiday party and that was it.
[1:05:18] >> Well, I would prefer no religion in
[1:05:20] public schools.
[1:05:21] >> Separation of church and state. I just
[1:05:22] think if you're going to allow one, then
[1:05:24] you should allow all.
[1:05:24] >> I mean, it's okay to say like this is a
[1:05:26] holiday that's happening today. Maybe
[1:05:28] get some snacks and treats. No, they
[1:05:29] devote like a whole lesson plan to like
[1:05:32] Chinese Lunar New Year, Ramadan, all of
[1:05:34] that.
[1:05:36] >> But not Easter.
[1:05:37] >> But not Easter. Not like any any other
[1:05:40] like Jewish holiday or Christmas.
[1:05:42] Selective.
[1:05:43] >> It It is because of who's on the school
[1:05:45] board for this school.
[1:05:48] >> Yeah, it's a bit selective.
[1:05:50] >> Uh do all or do none. I don't know.
[1:05:52] >> Yeah.
[1:05:52] >> Patland.
[1:05:55] >> Yep.
[1:05:56] >> Okay. Uh, you immediately just spent
[1:05:58] 2,600. I don't know what's going on.
[1:06:01] >> Uh,
[1:06:01] >> what's happened here?
[1:06:02] >> That That's the dog. We financed our
[1:06:04] dog.
[1:06:05] >> You just got the dog.
[1:06:07] >> Yep.
[1:06:08] >> Are you afraid of them eating it?
[1:06:10] >> No,
[1:06:12] >> of course not.
[1:06:12] >> That's a racist joke for you.
[1:06:15] Uh $2,570.
[1:06:19] The What is a pet land? This one of
[1:06:21] those like
[1:06:22] >> pet stores
[1:06:23] >> females.
[1:06:24] >> Oh, those are those places are bad,
[1:06:25] dude. I have heard after the fact that
[1:06:27] apparently people have some pretty low
[1:06:28] opinions on them. I didn't know about
[1:06:30] any of that. So, sorry to the people who
[1:06:33] protest pet land.
[1:06:34] >> Well, they're just kind of like puppy
[1:06:35] mills. Not saying like adopt not shop,
[1:06:37] sure, but if like every adopt is like a
[1:06:39] pitbull, like I get it. You don't
[1:06:40] necessarily need to do that cuz they'll
[1:06:41] kill your kids. But besides that, like
[1:06:44] puppy mills aren't always the best.
[1:06:46] >> Was a a like accredited breeder and they
[1:06:49] gave background on horse. Why do you
[1:06:52] think they're going to say, "Hey, we're
[1:06:53] an unethical business. Please come to us
[1:06:55] and spend your money.
[1:06:57] >> Okay. Well, either way, you open a
[1:06:58] credit card with them.
[1:07:00] >> Yeah, it's uh deferred deferred interest
[1:07:02] financing on the dog.
[1:07:03] >> How many dogs you got?
[1:07:05] >> One.
[1:07:05] >> Just the one.
[1:07:06] >> What'd you get?
[1:07:07] >> An Australian Shepherd.
[1:07:08] >> I'm sure it's a beautiful dog.
[1:07:10] >> It's fine, but it's supporting a
[1:07:12] business that isn't necessarily the
[1:07:13] best.
[1:07:15] >> 24 month. Oh, deferred.
[1:07:17] >> Deferred. Yeah,
[1:07:18] >> guys.
[1:07:19] >> I know. We're only making the minimum
[1:07:20] right now.
[1:07:21] >> Oh, yeah. 30 bucks. Okay. So, 2570. I'm
[1:07:24] guessing you have like uh 23 months
[1:07:26] left. 257 uh 23. So, you actually have
[1:07:30] to make $112 payments a month or else
[1:07:34] this is going to acrue at a 36%.
[1:07:37] No, no, no. It is accuring at a 36%
[1:07:39] interest. And then that interest will
[1:07:40] hit if you don't pay it off and what? 23
[1:07:43] months from now.
[1:07:44] >> Yep. So, $112 a month now going forward.
[1:07:48] Are you hundreds of dollars will hit?
[1:07:51] Oh, you don't even like the dog.
[1:07:53] >> I really want
[1:07:54] >> You're not like a dog.
[1:07:55] >> I really want to. What creature are you?
[1:07:58] >> He's I I love dogs. I grew up with dogs.
[1:08:00] >> What?
[1:08:01] >> I want to love him, but right now it is
[1:08:03] so hard.
[1:08:05] >> He lacks training, but he also won't
[1:08:07] train him.
[1:08:08] >> Well, yeah, puppies don't come with
[1:08:09] training.
[1:08:10] >> Well, of course not. But when part of
[1:08:11] the agreement of us getting this dog was
[1:08:14] saying, I will I will do all the
[1:08:16] training. You will do all the training.
[1:08:17] Well, why aren't you training them?
[1:08:18] >> And I do when I have time. Oh, hey
[1:08:21] buddy. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. If
[1:08:22] you said, "Well, let's get a dog. I'll
[1:08:24] do the training.
[1:08:24] >> Lay down. Come and like stay." He knows
[1:08:26] all of this.
[1:08:27] >> The training that hasn't happened. How
[1:08:28] many months old?
[1:08:29] >> He's seven.
[1:08:31] >> Seven months. He's one month older than
[1:08:32] I am.
[1:08:32] >> So, you're out of the puppy training.
[1:08:34] You're out of the potty training.
[1:08:36] >> Yeah. So, training is good. What? And he
[1:08:38] listens to command. What are you
[1:08:39] complaining about then?
[1:08:40] >> He just hyperactive. Sometimes you sit
[1:08:44] and lay down. But the problem is when
[1:08:46] he's running around the backyard, he
[1:08:48] will fur missile into our middle child
[1:08:51] and hit him square in the torso. He nip
[1:08:54] nips all three of them. I mean, he bit
[1:08:56] the toddler on the face the other day
[1:08:58] >> in a play way or aggressive way.
[1:09:00] >> He thinks he's playing.
[1:09:01] >> He thinks he's playing. Yeah. I mean,
[1:09:02] yes, more training is going to Yeah, you
[1:09:04] might need more professional training on
[1:09:05] that, honestly, with kids for what it's
[1:09:07] worth. Yeah. I mean, seven monthy old
[1:09:09] Australian Shepherd, yes, it's going to
[1:09:10] be a bit more wild and you just need
[1:09:12] more professional training.
[1:09:13] >> That's new to me. I've never had such an
[1:09:14] active dog before. I grew up with lap
[1:09:16] dogs. I've I've never been around a dog
[1:09:18] like this.
[1:09:19] >> Yeah, Australians, they're crazy. Yep.
[1:09:21] No, it's true. Um, okay. Well, someone
[1:09:24] needs to take some responsibility here
[1:09:26] and do something and probably do real
[1:09:28] training.
[1:09:29] >> Real training.
[1:09:31] >> Yeah. Maybe paid for, unfortunately.
[1:09:33] >> Robin Hood credit card.
[1:09:35] >> Mhm. I love my Robin Hood credit card,
[1:09:37] but uh you guys have done the opposite
[1:09:40] of me.
[1:09:41] >> Yeah,
[1:09:41] >> I don't have access to that.
[1:09:43] >> I'm okay with you guys like at some
[1:09:44] point doing some kind of like shortcut
[1:09:46] like um like I know you're trying to do
[1:09:48] the avalanche. Not really. But if you do
[1:09:50] any kind of consolidation or personal
[1:09:52] loan, I just want to keep this in the
[1:09:53] back of your head. Bankruptcy, but not
[1:09:55] until you change your behavior because
[1:09:56] we're not changing our behavior. Again,
[1:09:57] there's spending on here. We're if we're
[1:09:59] we're not changing our behavior. You're
[1:10:01] still spending on credit cards that you
[1:10:02] are not even or you're just making the
[1:10:04] minimum payments. you're not pay paying
[1:10:05] off. You done consolidations before?
[1:10:08] >> Yes.
[1:10:08] >> Okay. See, and that just shows cuz then
[1:10:10] you rack it back up. It doesn't work
[1:10:12] until you change your behavior. Okay.
[1:10:14] >> Mhm.
[1:10:15] >> When you're ready. And for people out
[1:10:17] there that have changed their behavior,
[1:10:18] we do have a good personal loan service

[1:10:32] credit card finder service. You guys
[1:10:35] can't the personal loan. Maybe someday
[1:10:37] for consolidation. It's good for them,
[1:10:40] but not for you. Change your behavior
[1:10:42] first because again on here you spent
[1:10:44] $712 even though it's maxed out. WHY?
[1:10:48] Who's Robin Hood card?
[1:10:49] >> It's mine.
[1:10:50] >> Of course. I thought she was the
[1:10:52] problem. $4,685.73.
[1:10:57] $168
[1:10:58] is the minimum. 20 years to pay off
[1:11:01] minimum with no purchases. 20.
[1:11:05] Yeah. YouTube TV, which is fine. Again,
[1:11:08] it's fine, especially at your income
[1:11:09] level. I'll give you a large
[1:11:11] subscription fund. It's okay. Okay. It
[1:11:13] comes with all the NFL [ __ ] Yeah.
[1:11:15] YouTube TV is good.
[1:11:16] >> That's the only reason I got it.
[1:11:18] >> You're putting on a credit card that you
[1:11:19] can't pay off though, so it doesn't make
[1:11:21] sense for you. Storage King, you guys
[1:11:23] have a big storage unit.
[1:11:24] >> Yes, we do.
[1:11:25] >> Lifetime. You can't afford lifetime.
[1:11:28] >> It is. Listen, Lifetime's great. I also
[1:11:30] have that. You don't need it.
[1:11:32] >> I I need it.
[1:11:33] >> Not Lifetime, though.
[1:11:34] >> I need Lifetime.
[1:11:35] >> Why?
[1:11:36] >> So, Lifetime has the only Lifetime is
[1:11:39] the only gym in our area that has um
[1:11:41] >> childare
[1:11:42] >> child care for more than just the
[1:11:44] morning. And I can't always go in the
[1:11:45] morning.
[1:11:46] >> [ __ ]
[1:11:48] Okay. Well, don't put it on a credit
[1:11:50] card. You're paying 550 a month.
[1:11:52] >> Yeah, it's even more.
[1:11:54] >> Good death.
[1:11:56] Good death, man. But look, the dude
[1:11:59] lifetime
[1:12:00] I will not give it up. It's not It's not
[1:12:03] >> You have to budget it in.
[1:12:04] >> I do budget it in the the
[1:12:06] >> You're spending more money than you do.
[1:12:08] >> Yeah. The balance that's on there that's
[1:12:09] from before we even got the lifetime
[1:12:11] membership. But
[1:12:13] >> so it was already at a high balance.
[1:12:15] >> So you're making it worse. You're just
[1:12:16] getting you're maintaining it.
[1:12:17] >> Yeah. But I'm I'm yourself.
[1:12:19] >> I'm paying more than the lifetime plus
[1:12:22] minimum payment every month.
[1:12:24] >> Barely. It's moved down like a couple
[1:12:25] bucks even though you're still spending
[1:12:27] money. That money, that $700 that you
[1:12:28] spent could have been $700 that went
[1:12:30] towards the card and brought it down to
[1:12:32] uh below $4,000. So, go [ __ ] yourself.
[1:12:35] What are you talking about?
[1:12:36] >> I don't care what you say. I'm not
[1:12:37] giving up that membership. I
[1:12:38] >> I'm not necessarily saying you have to,
[1:12:40] but it's going on a credit card.
[1:12:41] >> You just said I can't afford it.
[1:12:43] >> Not in this context. Not on a credit
[1:12:44] card that is accuring interest. If we
[1:12:46] can put it on a debit card, maybe we can
[1:12:47] figure it out. But you got to cut things
[1:12:48] somewhere. I give everyone a gym
[1:12:50] membership on the show. lifetime. A bit
[1:12:52] excessive potentially for your
[1:12:53] situation, but we'll figure it out in
[1:12:55] the end.
[1:12:55] >> All right. Well,
[1:12:56] >> who's the American Express Gold card?
[1:12:58] >> That'd be mine.
[1:13:00] >> Oh, buddy.
[1:13:00] >> So, that's that's a card that I got
[1:13:02] specifically uh for both of us to use,
[1:13:05] even though it's only one card that's in
[1:13:07] my name.
[1:13:08] >> Okay. Well, this one it looks like you
[1:13:09] actually pay off.
[1:13:10] >> Yes. Yeah. That one has been used for
[1:13:12] only groceries and eating out.
[1:13:16] >> OKAY. EATING OUT IS [ __ ] BUDDY. I I
[1:13:19] AGREE, but it's something that we're
[1:13:21] struggling to escape.
[1:13:22] >> So, oh, are you guys adults or not? Shut
[1:13:24] the up. What do you mean you have kids?
[1:13:26] Shut up.
[1:13:26] >> Yeah. So, it goes on that and it's been
[1:13:28] getting paid off every month.
[1:13:30] >> Yeah. Yeah. And I can give you the high
[1:13:31] five for paying it off every month. But
[1:13:32] guess what? The money you're having to
[1:13:33] use to pay it off every month that is
[1:13:34] going towards paying off your eating out
[1:13:36] could be money that is going towards the
[1:13:37] three credit cards that that came before
[1:13:39] this that are not being paid off. So, if
[1:13:42] you spend you know what what did you
[1:13:43] spend on this? You spent like 2,000 on
[1:13:44] this card, right? Across the multiple
[1:13:46] things and you paid it off. Great. Say
[1:13:47] a,000 of it is eating out. That means
[1:13:48] that's a,000 of it that you could put
[1:13:50] towards the Robin Hood card and bring it
[1:13:51] to below 3,000
[1:13:53] combined with the spending you did on
[1:13:55] the Robin Hood card. So, it doesn't
[1:13:56] matter. Like, yes, this is paid off.
[1:13:58] Congratulations. First card of the four
[1:14:00] cards we looked at that has paid off,
[1:14:02] but it is still money being spent that
[1:14:03] could go towards things to improve your
[1:14:05] life and actually avalanche like you
[1:14:07] like to. You're not avalanche. You've
[1:14:08] never heard of avalanche in your life.
[1:14:10] >> I mean, obviously, I've heard of it. I
[1:14:12] wouldn't have brought it up if I had.
[1:14:13] >> You don't know what it is, though. If
[1:14:14] you're not doing it, you're uber eating.
[1:14:16] Uber eating
[1:14:18] >> that that would be
[1:14:19] >> calories [ __ ] Domino's.
[1:14:21] >> I disagree with Uber eating.
[1:14:23] >> What? Okay. He does.
[1:14:24] >> Well, you should. Yeah, it's it's a
[1:14:26] premium. It's like an extra I looked at
[1:14:28] the statistics yesterday. It's like an
[1:14:29] extra 90% sir charge. Yeah, I believe it
[1:14:32] >> 100%. And I I don't disagree, but
[1:14:36] working 8 hours a day, having kids and
[1:14:38] school, and then he is going to go to
[1:14:40] work at 5. He wakes up at 4:30. He takes
[1:14:43] like an afternoon nap
[1:14:44] >> and the sister needs to step in in some
[1:14:45] kind of way in some kind of way. You
[1:14:46] need to step up in some kind of way. And
[1:14:48] also meal prep. If we're cooking a few
[1:14:49] times a week, you can warm things up.
[1:14:50] It's easy.
[1:14:52] >> True. So,
[1:14:52] >> and I do I do I do sometimes like I'll
[1:14:54] make a big I'll make a big meal and
[1:14:57] we'll save it and we'll have it like for
[1:14:59] leftovers or whatever. But when you're
[1:15:02] like the primary cooker
[1:15:04] in your house.
[1:15:06] >> If you or your child spent years growing
[1:15:08] up on social media and experience
[1:15:10] serious mental health struggles, you
[1:15:12] should hear this. Recently, a jury
[1:15:14] ordered Meta and YouTube to pay millions
[1:15:17] for their role in designing and
[1:15:18] promoting addictive platforms. They knew
[1:15:21] their apps could contribute to anxiety,
[1:15:23] depression, and body image issues, but
[1:15:26] did not share those risks while
[1:15:28] prioritizing profits. The recent
[1:15:30] historic verdict underscores the
[1:15:31] consequences of those decisions. Now
[1:15:33] Morgan and Morgan is stepping up to hold
[1:15:35] these platforms accountable for the harm
[1:15:37] they caused. Click the link in my bio to
[1:15:40] take a short quiz. You may be entitled
[1:15:41] to a potential recovery of over $1,000.
[1:15:45] Stop bleeding out money making minimum
[1:15:47] payments across multiple highinterest
[1:15:49] accounts. Most Americans are spending
[1:15:51] hundreds, sometimes thousands of dollars
[1:15:53] that could be going toward actually
[1:15:55] paying down debt instead of lining some
[1:15:58] bank's pockets. And look, if you're
[1:16:00] sitting on highinterest credit card
[1:16:01] debt, a car loan at 18% or oh my
[1:16:04] goodness, a payday loan charging you
[1:16:07] tripledigit interest rates, you need to
[1:16:10] hear this. If you've already cut up the
[1:16:12] cards and built better financial habits,
[1:16:14] but you're still drowning in interest
[1:16:16] payments, barely making progress, this
[1:16:18] is for you. I have opened my very own
[1:16:21] marketplace, a personal loan marketplace
[1:16:23] that lets you get personalized offers
[1:16:25] from multiple lenders in one place. You
[1:16:28] can see if you pre-qualify in minutes
[1:16:31] and it won't impact your credit score.
[1:16:32] But here's the deal. This isn't a magic
[1:16:35] bullet. If you refinance your debt but
[1:16:37] keep swiping, you're just making the
[1:16:39] problem worse. You still need to fix the
[1:16:41] behavior that screwed you in the first
[1:16:43] place. But if you're serious about
[1:16:44] getting out of debt faster, you could
[1:16:46] potentially lower your monthly payment
[1:16:48] by securing a single payment at a much
[1:16:51] better rate. Check out the link in the
[1:16:53] description below to see your
[1:16:54] personalized offers or go to caleb.com.
[1:16:56] And remember, you still got to do the
[1:16:58] work. Listen, I don't know if she I'll
[1:17:00] get your sister a course careers cuz you
[1:17:01] guys are doing great on your income.
[1:17:03] Sounds like she needs to figure her [ __ ]
[1:17:04] out. I'll get her course career
[1:17:05] certification and I'll get her on Helium
[1:17:07] as well for a cheaper phone plan. But I
[1:17:10] don't know, like she needs to step up
[1:17:12] and help. Domino's, Waterburger,
[1:17:14] Starbucks. [ __ ]
[1:17:17] Exquisite Cafe. Morning Donut. Cheeky
[1:17:21] Monkeys. Cheeky Monkeys. So much

[1:17:25] The cheeky monkey was a birthday. Black
[1:17:27] Rock coffee Uber Eat 65 bucks in that
[1:17:30] one.
[1:17:31] >> It's [ __ ]
[1:17:33] >> SO, YES, PAID OFF, but could instead go
[1:17:36] towards actually helping to pay off one
[1:17:37] of your bad debts.
[1:17:40] Oh, one main financial. What is this?
[1:17:42] >> Yep. So, this is a consolidation loan
[1:17:44] that I took out a few years ago. Uh
[1:17:47] because we were and this is before most
[1:17:49] of these credit cards that we've gone
[1:17:50] over even existed, but we we had gotten
[1:17:54] stuff or all of our cards maxed out. I
[1:17:56] didn't
[1:17:57] >> all of his cards maxed out and this is
[1:17:58] before we were started looking for a
[1:18:00] home and it's the reason why we couldn't
[1:18:01] buy a home sooner than we did.
[1:18:03] >> So you guys are renting right now?
[1:18:04] >> No, we bought a home but so this was
[1:18:07] like 2 years ago but we lived in an
[1:18:09] apartment for a year and then my job
[1:18:11] gives really
[1:18:12] >> Did he take it out behind your back?
[1:18:14] Yeah, he took it out and didn't tell me
[1:18:15] about it.
[1:18:16] >> And I had been planning and we'd been
[1:18:18] talking about buying a home and my
[1:18:19] >> [ __ ] she can't trust you.
[1:18:20] >> My job gives really great bonuses that
[1:18:22] we could have used toward a down payment
[1:18:24] to lower our rent and then he did this
[1:18:27] which up our debt to income and we
[1:18:30] couldn't buy a house.
[1:18:31] >> Yeah. Yeah, I was wait for another I um
[1:18:35] >> I was trying to control take take
[1:18:38] control of all the finances without, you
[1:18:40] know, having the mature conversation of
[1:18:42] explaining that we're in a bad spot and
[1:18:45] I just did that. I thought I could
[1:18:46] >> What's the point of the personal loan
[1:18:47] anyway? The interest rate is practically
[1:18:49] a credit card at 24.21%
[1:18:51] interest right?
[1:18:53] >> It was still better than the rates that
[1:18:54] I had
[1:18:55] >> and at least I don't know. Okay. Uh you
[1:18:58] can usually declare some kind of
[1:18:59] hardship with many credit cards and
[1:19:01] they'll get you on like a 1% interest
[1:19:03] loan,
[1:19:03] >> but then you have to close out the
[1:19:04] credit card. Yes.
[1:19:08] >> What's the point of the personal? What
[1:19:09] was the consolidation without closing?
[1:19:11] You're just going to end up in the same
[1:19:12] situation which you did. So if
[1:19:16] >> Okay. So $47787.
[1:19:20] >> Mhm. a month and you owe $10,1181
[1:19:24] with an insane interest rate.
[1:19:27] >> Yeah.
[1:19:28] >> Okay. And I'm also being told there was
[1:19:30] another loan that he didn't send in.
[1:19:31] What the what?
[1:19:33] >> So, we have an upstart loan that I
[1:19:35] originally took out to pay for our
[1:19:36] daughter's dental care because he failed
[1:19:39] to put her on his dental plan and she
[1:19:42] never had dental care and then she had
[1:19:44] cavities and that was $10,000. So, I had
[1:19:46] to take out a loan to assist in the
[1:19:48] payment of that because he failed to put
[1:19:50] her on insurance.
[1:19:51] >> Why aren't you putting your kids on your
[1:19:52] insurance dude?
[1:19:53] >> He was lazy and procrastinated.
[1:19:54] >> I have since then it was
[1:19:56] >> Well, since then after the consequences.
[1:19:59] >> Yeah. No, I I recognized where I where I
[1:20:01] messed up in that situation,
[1:20:03] >> but you know, obviously her dental
[1:20:07] health is important and she need there
[1:20:09] was work that she needed to get done. I
[1:20:11] felt like if we waited the two months
[1:20:14] for her to actually be on the insurance
[1:20:16] plan and then schedule everything, it
[1:20:19] would have been okay. But instead, we
[1:20:21] just
[1:20:23] >> pushed through and took care of it.
[1:20:24] >> That he didn't have her on insurance. I
[1:20:26] got independent insurance for her. But
[1:20:27] they told us to wait 60 days before any
[1:20:30] actual care could be done aside from
[1:20:32] like cleanings.
[1:20:34] >> He wanted to get it done ASAP.
[1:20:36] >> It wasn't a
[1:20:38] root canal emergency.
[1:20:40] She she had she had several cavities and
[1:20:42] needed crowns.
[1:20:43] >> Yeah.
[1:20:44] >> Although which age one?
[1:20:46] >> The oldest. So she was she was five at
[1:20:48] the time.
[1:20:48] >> That's like her baby teeth, right?
[1:20:50] >> Yes. But then if you don't take care of
[1:20:52] them, it Well, okay. If you don't take
[1:20:54] care of those teeth and it burrows down
[1:20:55] into the teeth that come up and it like
[1:20:57] you up for the rest of your life.
[1:20:58] >> Okay. So,
[1:20:59] >> and the dentist said you couldn't wake
[1:21:01] >> those. I was at work so he took her.
[1:21:04] >> Oh, you just went. You just did.
[1:21:06] >> Yeah. I I took her and
[1:21:08] >> I I felt pressured to get it done right
[1:21:10] then and there from Cali instead of
[1:21:12] waiting
[1:21:13] >> two months for her to actually have
[1:21:15] insurance coverage that's necessary for
[1:21:17] her to not get those anymore.
[1:21:19] >> Yes. Earlier to get such intense dental
[1:21:22] work right?
[1:21:22] >> Yes. But I was also the only one who was
[1:21:24] brushing her teeth and I would do it day
[1:21:26] and night.
[1:21:26] >> She's brushing her own teeth now. I
[1:21:27] don't she's old enough to do it now as
[1:21:30] long just as long as she's
[1:21:31] >> Okay. What's the balance and upstart?
[1:21:32] Uh,
[1:21:33] >> it's like 5600 because whenever I get
[1:21:36] bonuses,
[1:21:36] >> what's the minimum monthly payment?
[1:21:37] >> It's I think like 112.
[1:21:39] >> What's the interest?
[1:21:41] >> 32%.
[1:21:42] >> What the?
[1:21:44] >> It was what I could get at the time.
[1:21:46] >> Okay. Wells Fargo credit card. What's
[1:21:47] this?
[1:21:48] >> So that's mine. Uh,
[1:21:50] >> what? What? Have they not been yours
[1:21:51] yet?
[1:21:52] >> Everything is Everything that you have
[1:21:54] is mine, but the spending
[1:21:56] >> I gave you all of my stuff.
[1:21:58] >> Okay. Well, I didn't send it in. Sorry.
[1:22:00] What the?
[1:22:01] >> So there's It's even worse. It's even
[1:22:03] more. So
[1:22:04] >> I have like three credit cards. They're
[1:22:06] not bad,
[1:22:07] >> but they're not with like high limits
[1:22:09] like his are. His are matter. They're
[1:22:11] still balances. You dumb tit.
[1:22:12] >> You're right. The the reason she The
[1:22:14] reason I didn't send them in is because
[1:22:15] uh that Upstar loan that I've got was uh
[1:22:18] it consolidated her stuff. So it's in
[1:22:21] >> But she still has balances on her credit
[1:22:23] cards right?
[1:22:23] >> I have recurring stuff that pays off
[1:22:25] every month. So I
[1:22:26] >> pay it off every month. They're
[1:22:27] balances. You don't like I still want to
[1:22:29] know your spending.
[1:22:31] >> Oh, it's like Apple Music.
[1:22:32] >> Be prepared to pull those up. I want to
[1:22:33] see the spending. Either way, 5,336.16.
[1:22:38] Minimum to payment $123.72.
[1:22:42] >> Interest is acrewing. So, it's
[1:22:43] temporarily at 1%.
[1:22:45] >> Right. Yeah. So, that that account that
[1:22:47] account is closed.
[1:22:48] >> Ah, so you did the hardship thing that I
[1:22:50] talked about.
[1:22:51] >> I didn't know that that's what I was
[1:22:53] signing up with them to do. I was just
[1:22:55] >> What's wrong with closing your accounts?
[1:22:56] You you already have a house.
[1:22:57] >> There's nothing wrong with it. I didn't
[1:22:58] know that I could close it and take out
[1:23:01] or get this hardship situation with them
[1:23:03] to have a minuscule interest rate on
[1:23:06] what's left. I didn't know that that was
[1:23:08] an option, but I found it by accident.
[1:23:10] >> Are you paying on that?
[1:23:11] >> Yeah.
[1:23:11] >> I didn't know that.
[1:23:13] >> What?
[1:23:13] >> That he was paying on the Wells Fargo
[1:23:15] one.
[1:23:16] >> Well, he has a minimum.
[1:23:16] >> Yeah, just the just the minimum every
[1:23:18] month.
[1:23:18] >> Um, I think now would be a really great
[1:23:20] time to tell you that he also opened up
[1:23:21] a new credit card with USAA.
[1:23:23] >> Myself.
[1:23:24] >> Yeah. Well, since Okay. Yeah, since we
[1:23:28] just got it in the mail.
[1:23:29] >> Why, dude? What is your addiction here?
[1:23:31] This is insane.
[1:23:32] >> So, a lot of those other ones I fell I
[1:23:34] fell into the trap of points chasing. I
[1:23:37] I didn't do it I didn't do the process
[1:23:39] correctly and that's how
[1:23:41] >> what like interest is acrewing and that
[1:23:42] completely negates any kind of points
[1:23:44] you'd ever get.
[1:23:45] >> Yes. Precisely.
[1:23:46] >> Okay. So,
[1:23:47] >> so and then you applied to financial
[1:23:48] audit, submitted your documents and then
[1:23:50] got a new credit card. Like you already
[1:23:51] know you're
[1:23:52] >> Yeah, I know,
[1:23:53] >> brother. So this hind card so he
[1:23:55] couldn't activate it.
[1:23:56] >> Even on here it says [ __ ] spending.
[1:23:58] Rosa's cafe and tortilla going inside
[1:24:00] getting some energy drinks. More
[1:24:02] Petland. What the? You made your pet
[1:24:05] petland down payment maybe on here.
[1:24:07] >> So that's a separate financing deal. It
[1:24:10] charges over uh it charges over 12
[1:24:14] months a uh a set balance.
[1:24:17] >> Chip donuts. Chip donuts. And I'll be
[1:24:18] honest,
[1:24:20] >> girl had her friends in town. I was
[1:24:23] like, you know, let's give them a little
[1:24:24] Texas love. Gosh [ __ ] please. I used to
[1:24:27] think they were incredible. There some
[1:24:28] Those were the worst donuts I've ever
[1:24:30] had in my life.
[1:24:30] >> It's got to be a fresh glaze. It's the
[1:24:32] only way it's good.
[1:24:34] >> And they're [ __ ] They're just They're
[1:24:36] like bread. This is bread. It's not
[1:24:38] donuts. They're like They're actually
[1:24:40] like a loaf of bread that's slightly
[1:24:41] glazed. They're [ __ ] man. That is
[1:24:44] >> I know. I know there's better donuts out
[1:24:45] there. That's
[1:24:46] >> Yeah. Round donuts. Crispy cream. Donuts
[1:24:49] ever.
[1:24:50] Even Duncan. Tim Horn.
[1:24:52] >> Absolutely. Duncan is trash.
[1:24:54] >> It's not good. You're right. It's not
[1:24:56] good. But it's better than Shipley.
[1:24:58] Shipley's not a donut, dude.
[1:24:59] >> Why are we arguing over Shiplan?
[1:25:03] >> Donut. We are donut connoisseurs.
[1:25:05] >> We are fat. Except
[1:25:06] >> and he's got a bad opinion about it's
[1:25:08] not a bad They're not donuts. You're
[1:25:10] right. Dunkin is [ __ ] But at least
[1:25:12] they're donuts. You were talking about a
[1:25:14] loaf of bread that gets a little glaze
[1:25:16] on it. It's horrible. It's literally it
[1:25:19] is the Congratulations. They're
[1:25:21] horrible. Everyone I saw everyone shake
[1:25:23] their head yes when I said that cuz
[1:25:24] they're [ __ ] donuts. You're a bad fat.
[1:25:26] >> Okay.
[1:25:27] >> I don't want to be fat. So I guess it's
[1:25:29] a good thing that I'm a bad fat. Oh,
[1:25:31] you're only getting fatter and it's on
[1:25:32] shitty food.
[1:25:32] >> Yeah, it's cuz I'm damn good at getting
[1:25:34] fat.
[1:25:34] >> You're damn good at eating the worst
[1:25:36] donuts.
[1:25:37] >> If you're going to be in public safety,
[1:25:38] at least get the good donuts.
[1:25:41] >> Well, I don't get donuts while I'm
[1:25:42] working.
[1:25:44] >> He gets them after for the kids. We do
[1:25:47] like a little donut sundae which has
[1:25:50] >> crispy.
[1:25:51] >> Well, yeah. Honestly, we don't really
[1:25:52] >> I love crispy cream. There's not one on
[1:25:54] the way home.
[1:25:54] >> What the?
[1:25:56] >> It's too out of the way.
[1:25:57] >> Okay. Saver card. Who?
[1:25:59] >> Also mine.
[1:26:00] >> $97242.
[1:26:03] I can never get Shipley. It's
[1:26:05] horrendous. What?
[1:26:07] >> The worst [ __ ] I've ever had. The the
[1:26:09] friends were so disappointed and
[1:26:10] everyone was so disappoint. They were so
[1:26:11] they were just so bad. They were so bad.
[1:26:13] Got the glaze. Got the filled. got the
[1:26:16] uh strawberry sprinkles. We got
[1:26:17] everything and it was all [ __ ]
[1:26:20] Barbarian filled. Horrible. Horrible.
[1:26:22] Horrible.
[1:26:23] >> I don't disagree.
[1:26:24] >> Then I got one and then I ate one the
[1:26:26] next day and it gave me diarrhea farts
[1:26:28] all day. It was horrible. $97242
[1:26:31] cents on here. Interest being acred. No
[1:26:33] purchases, but you're only making the
[1:26:34] minimum payment cuz we're avalanching.
[1:26:36] I.e. spending on the credit cards that
[1:26:38] we're putting more towards. Stupid
[1:26:40] stupid ass. 7 years to pay off. Interest
[1:26:44] is being acrewing like crazy. Yeah.
[1:26:46] Okay. Venmo credit card. [ __ ] me. What a
[1:26:49] balance. And a Venmo credit card takes
[1:26:53] eight years to pay off. 2,784.
[1:26:59] Ridiculous. You'll have experienced two
[1:27:01] more preschool graduations
[1:27:03] by the time this has paid off.
[1:27:05] >> But they're all going to use the same.
[1:27:07] >> Yeah. They better cuz that's the most
[1:27:08] pointless waste of society thing. Our
[1:27:11] quality of education is going down
[1:27:12] everywhere in this country. Everyone's
[1:27:14] becoming more and you're giving them a
[1:27:16] celebration for preschool.
[1:27:17] >> Yeah.
[1:27:18] >> [ __ ] off. Kindergarten, whatever. Same
[1:27:20] thing. Same [ __ ] to me.
[1:27:22] >> $69 monthly payment. Eight years to pay
[1:27:24] off. And oh, you're no interest.
[1:27:26] Interest is being accured. Brutal. Of 50
[1:27:29] bucks practically after a $70 payment.
[1:27:32] $277.84.
[1:27:35] Auto. We have a car.
[1:27:37] >> That's my car.
[1:27:38] >> What is it? It's a 2024 Volkswagen Atlas
[1:27:41] Seek.
[1:27:42] >> Okay. Well, you owe $38,000
[1:27:46] $385.74
[1:27:48] with a minimum monthly payment of $754.
[1:27:52] Now, that's that highinccome [ __ ]
[1:27:55] That's where people themselves. I got
[1:27:57] death threats on Twitter yesterday after
[1:27:59] Dexto posted a clip of me saying we
[1:28:01] spent too much on cars. Here's an
[1:28:03] example. They make so much money then
[1:28:04] they get $800 minimum payment on their
[1:28:06] car that they don't need. You know how
[1:28:08] much it was worth for your $40,000 loan?
[1:28:10] >> So I
[1:28:11] >> What's it worth?
[1:28:12] >> It's worth a lot to me.
[1:28:13] >> Okay. $28,000. You
[1:28:16] >> Okay. Well, I yourself I'm going to
[1:28:18] drive the wheels off it. But also the
[1:28:19] car is what everyone says.
[1:28:21] >> Well, I don't have any plans to upgrade.
[1:28:23] >> We What are you a little Nazi? What do
[1:28:25] you mean? What?
[1:28:26] >> I just like my car. We upgraded because
[1:28:29] all three car seats would not fit in my
[1:28:31] previous car.
[1:28:33] >> Don't care. You owe a lot of money on
[1:28:34] this car.
[1:28:35] >> What am I supposed to do? drag the other
[1:28:36] kid behind me with a chain.
[1:28:38] >> There's other cars that exist that can
[1:28:39] fit it that are not $40,000 at an $800 a
[1:28:42] month payment. I What name it off the
[1:28:45] top of my head? A used Volkswagen.
[1:28:48] >> Ours was No, it was new. But we got a
[1:28:50] better deal on it. You on a
[1:28:51] >> Shut the up. You didn't get a good deal.
[1:28:53] You're underwater by $10,000. What's the
[1:28:54] interest rate on it?
[1:28:56] >> Seven and change.
[1:28:58] >> Go off. So, it's barely even competing
[1:28:59] with the marketplace if your money's in
[1:29:00] there and then you got depreciating. You
[1:29:01] already lost 10.
[1:29:04] You'll lose more as it goes. Me so
[1:29:07] stupid. What is this then? A lease?
[1:29:10] >> Yeah,
[1:29:10] >> you have a lease. What's your lease?
[1:29:12] >> I got a 2025 F-150.
[1:29:16] >> This is
[1:29:16] >> And he had a Volkswagen Jetta that was
[1:29:18] almost paid off.
[1:29:20] >> You are a American.
[1:29:22] You don't do anything. You go to work
[1:29:25] and drive a different car.
[1:29:28] You don't need this. You don't do
[1:29:29] anything. You pick up groceries. Even
[1:29:31] I've used it for things that I couldn't
[1:29:32] have done
[1:29:33] >> a couple times that you could rent a car
[1:29:34] for that you could rent a truck in the
[1:29:36] moment for. You don't need you never you
[1:29:39] never in no way do you need an F-150.
[1:29:43] >> I mean I needed something that just like
[1:29:45] hers that could fit all three car seats.
[1:29:47] >> You didn't need a Ford
[1:29:48] >> also and also do other things like
[1:29:51] whenever we were uh she wanted to build
[1:29:54] something for uh doing pottery
[1:29:56] >> rent.
[1:29:59] You don't need to lease this [ __ ] at
[1:30:01] $579.81
[1:30:02] a month, which your miles will likely be
[1:30:04] over, which your gas payment, especially
[1:30:06] now, is aggressive on.
[1:30:07] >> Yeah, the g the gas is hard right now.
[1:30:09] >> Yeah. Your problem. Your fault.
[1:30:11] >> Can I also just say that um our our
[1:30:14] monthly payments increased on things
[1:30:17] because he had a really sweet deal where
[1:30:19] he was still on his parents' insurance
[1:30:21] and he was not paying his dad for the
[1:30:23] insurance. So, they told him to get his
[1:30:25] own. So now he has to pay what is it
[1:30:28] like $300 with your own
[1:30:30] >> uh yeah between
[1:30:32] that for the budget
[1:30:34] >> the
[1:30:34] >> what's the term on this
[1:30:36] >> uh
[1:30:37] >> 5 years
[1:30:37] >> 40 no 48 months
[1:30:38] >> and what are you going to do after once
[1:30:40] it's done
[1:30:41] >> release it to keep it
[1:30:43] >> why something you don't need
[1:30:45] >> get an auto loan to finish
[1:30:46] >> F150 to get to the office and you have a
[1:30:48] Ford F150 to get groceries this is so
[1:30:51] pathetic
[1:30:53] you you're the most American piece of
[1:30:55] [ __ ] with a stupid car. It's so stupid.
[1:30:58] >> I I think that it's that it works out
[1:31:00] because I mean ju right
[1:31:02] >> afford your car payments are a,000 500
[1:31:05] bucks.
[1:31:05] >> Yeah, I know they're expensive, but I
[1:31:07] mean ju just for the truck I have I have
[1:31:10] >> which you don't utilize.
[1:31:10] >> I have a 40 a 40 mile commute to work.
[1:31:13] >> That's even a worse reason to That's
[1:31:15] even a worse reason to have a truck. A
[1:31:16] 40 mile commute. What the
[1:31:18] >> Yeah. No, I I'm I'm not disputing that.
[1:31:20] The fuel economy sucks compared to to
[1:31:22] the last car that I had. But I'm in a
[1:31:24] position where no matter the weather, no
[1:31:26] matter what's going on, I have to get
[1:31:28] there. So
[1:31:29] >> with it, just stay in an SUV. You'd be
[1:31:31] fine.
[1:31:31] >> Over the winter when we had snow and
[1:31:34] ice just
[1:31:35] >> four-wheel drive SUV, you'd be fine.
[1:31:38] >> A four-wheel drive SUV is the same price
[1:31:40] of pickup.
[1:31:41] >> I went to I think it was like the uh
[1:31:43] it's statistically like the eighth
[1:31:45] snowiest university in the United
[1:31:46] States. Snows up to here constantly.
[1:31:48] West Michigan, [ __ ] Lake Michigan,
[1:31:51] lake effect snow. Crazy. I had a
[1:31:53] two-wheel drive horrible sedan and I was
[1:31:57] doing delivery Jimmy John's and uh uh
[1:32:02] avalanches. Shut up.
[1:32:04] >> Compact snow is way easier to drive on
[1:32:06] than
[1:32:06] >> black ice.
[1:32:08] >> What are you talk? I WAS BLACK ICE every
[1:32:10] second of every day. What do you think
[1:32:12] happens up there? It's horrible. It's
[1:32:14] scary.
[1:32:14] >> I think it just snows and everyone
[1:32:15] drives on it and then it compacts and
[1:32:17] it's easy to drive.
[1:32:17] >> No. And it's also like hurricane snow
[1:32:20] [ __ ] too. Blizzards, buddy, this is a
[1:32:23] cope. You're coping. Shut the up. Your
[1:32:27] house
[1:32:29] $323,85684.
[1:32:33] What's it worth right now?
[1:32:34] >> Um, I think it's worth 368.
[1:32:36] >> Okay. So, I guess you would be close to
[1:32:38] breaking even if you sold it after
[1:32:40] everything.
[1:32:41] >> $2,349.71
[1:32:43] a month. A decent rate. Actually, good
[1:32:45] rate at 4.25. So, I do like to see that.
[1:32:47] That's fine. I'm not freaking out about
[1:32:49] the house. Yeah, the
[1:32:50] >> the mortgage payment's a little higher
[1:32:52] now. Um after the first year there was

[1:32:58] 3,000.
[1:32:59] >> Hey, me.
