- 0:05Speaker 1: Natalie Migliore.
- 0:07Speaker 2: Oh how appropriate. Robas Sarino was talking about gambling everywhere,
- 0:12Speaker 2: and uh, oh, Natalie Magliori, you went down in the hot,
- 0:16Speaker 2: sweltering Yumban streets of New York City talking about what
- 0:19Speaker 2: else gambling.
- 0:21Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's a one in more than two
- 0:24Speaker 3: hundred and ninety two million chance that you win. But
- 0:26Speaker 3: if you play Powerball, two dollars in a dream, that's
- 0:30Speaker 3: what they say. You need, all you need if you're
- 0:33Speaker 3: gonna play. The Powerball jackpot has not been won since May,
- 0:38Speaker 3: and that pot was only twenty million bucks split between
- 0:41Speaker 3: two winners. Now you've got a chance at eight hundred
- 0:44Speaker 3: and fifty six million dollars. It's the eighth largest prize
- 0:49Speaker 3: currently in game history. And you know, with all those
- 0:53Speaker 3: odds one and more than two hundred ninety two million,
- 0:56Speaker 3: it might be why it's so difficult for people to
- 0:58Speaker 3: think about what they would do when I put them
- 1:01Speaker 3: on the spot. But their gears are turning.
- 1:03Speaker 4: I'll pay my tithes, I'll help my family, i will
- 1:06Speaker 4: help the people that really need it, and I will
- 1:10Speaker 4: help you know, programs like Didy Harvests because I used
- 1:13Speaker 4: to volunteer it there and just help a whole bunch
- 1:15Speaker 4: of lot of people. Definitely get out of debt and
- 1:18Speaker 4: help the homeless.
- 1:18Speaker 2: It's way too many homeless people. It's overwhelming right now.
- 1:21Speaker 5: I'm eighty seven years old. I would make sure my
- 1:25Speaker 5: children are taken care of my grandchildren, and then I
- 1:28Speaker 5: start setting up programs to help people whose grandparents don't
- 1:33Speaker 5: have eight hundred billion dollars.
- 1:35Speaker 3: Yeah, now a lot of people putting others first with
- 1:38Speaker 3: their answers. And it really all comes down to the
- 1:40Speaker 3: cost of living here. According to a report from SOFI,
- 1:43Speaker 3: New Yorkers need an average monthly budget of five five
- 1:47Speaker 3: hundred and thirty six dollars or about sixty six thousand
- 1:50Speaker 3: dollars a year just to get by. So for people
- 1:54Speaker 3: who are just getting by, some working multiple jobs, they
- 1:57Speaker 3: tell me on the street, it takes some work to
- 1:59Speaker 3: get them to think about what they want.
- 2:02Speaker 1: I think I wouldn't work anymore, and I travel Europe
- 2:05Speaker 1: to be.
- 2:05Speaker 3: Honest, where's the first place you're going?
- 2:08Speaker 2: Copenhagen?
- 2:08Speaker 1: That was, do you have a trip uped?
- 2:10Speaker 3: I lived in Copenhagen, and so I would go back
- 2:13Speaker 3: today if I could.
- 2:14Speaker 4: Oh, I'll buy me a new house where. Oh no,
- 2:17Speaker 4: not here, not in New York City. It's too expensive.
- 2:20Speaker 3: But you had three hundred million dollars at that point.
- 2:23Speaker 4: I want to have. Man, you can't really get here
- 2:25Speaker 4: in New York. So maybe down south somewhere. I don't know.
- 2:29Speaker 5: You know what I would like to do. I'd like
- 2:31Speaker 5: to fly to the Himalaya mountains and find Shangri law.
- 2:36Speaker 5: I want to find out one opening in the cave
- 2:39Speaker 5: on the mountain and going and find the beautiful world.
- 2:42Speaker 3: Well, I hope he's taking me with him, because look
- 2:46Speaker 3: that one time lump sum payout is currently at three
- 2:49Speaker 3: hundred and seventy two million dollars, and I think you
- 2:52Speaker 3: might be able to lighten the load with that. Okay,
- 2:54Speaker 3: a little bit.
- 2:55Speaker 1: Before taxes, No, No, three seventy two, and then taxes
- 2:58Speaker 1: come out of that.
- 2:59Speaker 3: Well that's wonderful, yea way, I thought it was after taxes.
- 3:01Speaker 3: That's why they take all that five hund where's all
- 3:03Speaker 3: the five hundred mil go?
- 3:05Speaker 1: No, it's if you want it up front, you get that.
- 3:07Speaker 1: You can get the you can get the eight hundred million,
- 3:09Speaker 1: right if you take thirty year payments. Ye dead by that,
- 3:12Speaker 1: and they'll actually up at five percent every year because
- 3:15Speaker 1: of inflation. You get five percent a little bit extra.
- 3:18Speaker 3: But that's the risk you take, because wouldn't you rather
- 3:20Speaker 3: have the whole pay out.
- 3:22Speaker 1: Everybody does, everybody takes the immediate payout. You know, I
- 3:25Speaker 1: won one time, I won, uh I won two hundred
- 3:29Speaker 1: thousand one time, and I ended up getting the check
- 3:32Speaker 1: and it was almost half that. It was like half
- 3:34Speaker 1: of that because of taxes, city taxes, state taxes, federal taxes.
- 3:38Speaker 2: Well, we've got an exit Monday. Shame time, shame place.
