  SPEAKER_01: So we're all right, exactly.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_01: And six of them, I mean, my God, you could not maintain the house doing it all yourself.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_01: No.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_01: So they had a chore chart, and every chore has a certain point value.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_01: The kids earn points for doing their responsibilities, and then they can decide how they want to spend the points.
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_01: Now, this is where it gets ri this is where it gets great.
• 1:33
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, let's hear it.

  SPEAKER_01: Uh, but they said they can use them for things like the quote unquote good snacks.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_01: Okay.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_01: So you do the chores, you suddenly get the Doritos.
• 1:48
  SPEAKER_01: I'm stuck with the wise potato chips that are the plain ones.

  SPEAKER_01: Oh, no.
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_01: You know what?
• 1:55
  SPEAKER_01: You'd get the Doritos, I'd get the Quest chips because I wasn't working as hard.

  SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's when you get to do real fun stuff.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_01: You're like going to Chili's.

  SPEAKER_01: That's when we call it a break for mom and dad because you get five kids left behind with the other parent.
• 2:30
  SPEAKER_01: The other parents going.
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_01: And then you think Why did I marry this son of why did I marry this oil company executive?

  SPEAKER_01: My god, I give you a lot of credit with six kids.
• 2:51
  SPEAKER_01: Oh my lord.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, anyway, we also have a little twist on it, and uh, if we have to keep reminding them, meaning mom and dad to pick something up.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_01: Ooh.
• 2:59
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, exactly.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_01: We have to keep reminding them, eventually it goes to what we call mom and dad jail.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_01: And they have to do different things and get more points to buy it back.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_00: You know, you guys really thought of everything.
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_01: I did really well.

  SPEAKER_00: I love this, and you know what else I love too is it does kind of get them in the mode of how to save money too.
• 3:22
  SPEAKER_00: I know it's points, but it's hey, if you save for this, you can get something bigger.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_01: See, I look at it a little bit different.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: There's always gonna be the kid that's gonna see it the way you do, and that's the kid that's gonna be the saver.
