- 8:12another thing we had to eat when it was poor,
- 8:14Uh crackers with butter on them. Sometimes sometimes we get jelly,
- 8:19but but not very often. Already four two five fours
- 8:23seven seventh. Let's see what you sent me here? Hey,

- 8:42is maracan Moroccan?
- 8:44Speaker 1: What is that?
- 8:45Speaker 2: I don't know what that is. It looks familiar, but
- 8:48I don't know what it is. All right, what'd you
- 8:49guys eat? What was your poor food? Or struggle meal?
- 8:52I like what she said, struggle meal. So we're talking
- 8:56about those broke foods are like. I like the way
- 8:58the other lady pushed. He said, those struggle meals you
- 9:01know back in the day, or maybe now you gotta eat,
- 9:04you gotta eat already fourteen five, four seven to seven.
- 9:09Speaker 1: Hey Romeo, I love your station.
- 9:11Speaker 2: I remember we used to cut a three l Solda
- 9:15bottle put cereal in it and did not have milk,
- 9:18so we used water. Oh my god, I could honestly say,
- 9:24one thing I never had to do is eat cereal
- 9:29with water. That is one thing I can tell you
- 9:31that I've never had to do. Alrighty four two five
- 9:35four seven to seven. Roman, I was younger, fourteen fifteen.
- 9:38My mom would leave me home alone with nothing in
- 9:41the fridge, so I'd eat lettuce and lemon juice. I
- 9:45weighed like ninety pounds, but I ate. You know, I
- 9:53want to say something about that. You know there, You know,
- 9:56we look at we look at you look at people
- 10:00sometimes today and I think this is really important. You
- 10:03look at some people today and they grew up with
- 10:07struggle meals, right, and they come up a little bit,
- 10:09they get them a good job, they start making a
- 10:11little money. Then everybody talks about well, man, look how
- 10:15which way you put on? Well, that's because you can
- 10:17eat now. I think there's something to that. When you
- 10:20grow up poor and everybody you know you got no food,
- 10:24so you ninety pounds, but you start making a little
- 10:26cheddar and then all of a sudden you want to
- 10:27buy cheddar because you can't eat. I mean, there ain't
- 10:31nothing wrong with that. Hey, Rome, what do you got here?
- 10:34Speaker 1: Yo? Hey yo?
- 10:36Speaker 2: Roam some top ramen with cheese and ham or cheet ons,
- 10:41and if you want to be extra fancy, slap on
- 10:43some bread and have a sandwich. But that was usually
- 10:46something you do when mom wasn't there because we was
- 10:50using too much ingredients.
- 10:51Speaker 1: After that, I thought, you're going to say that's what
- 10:56you do when company comes over.
- 10:59Speaker 2: He's aging about the struggle meals, you know, back in
- 11:02the day or maybe today.
- 11:03Speaker 1: You know, we got a lot of money, so how
- 11:05are we eating? What are you eating? What was your favorite?
- 11:08Speaker 2: They weren't all bad, by the way, poor foods, poor meals,
- 11:11struggle meals, whatever you want.
- 11:13Speaker 1: To call them, they weren't all bad. A lot of
- 11:15it was.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Actually pretty tasty. Already bore to you bought for seven
- 11:21to seven. I just tuned in Rome, how about kick
- 11:24cereal and powdered note? Oh I never had that. That
- 11:27top ramin recipe is a prison cuisine. Okay, okay, what
- 11:32about what about uh that mac and cheese? That uh
- 11:41that crab mac and cheese?
- 11:42Speaker 1: That was kind of a poor food.
- 11:43Speaker 2: I remember of eating that Hammiger helper without no hamburger.
- 11:47Speaker 1: You remember that?
- 11:48Speaker 2: Gosh, big boy just made me think of something and
- 11:53I forgot. I forgot what it was that I was
- 11:55gonna say about poor food. He yo, rome is this
- 12:01topic going? Let's see as this topic is going. I
- 12:06was taking my kid to school. My son, who was fourteen,
- 12:09is listening, saying, Dad, we have all we have all
- 12:12these and they're bomb and they're making fun of them.
- 12:17I told him, you're the broke food. I told him
- 12:22they're the broke food. That's what you're that's what you
- 12:24eat when you ain't got no money. He looked at
- 12:27me and said, what what are we broke? I said, no,
- 12:31I'm broke. You're just going to enjoy being broke with me.
- 12:37We really ain't broke, but when we have some steak,
- 12:41he appreciates it much more. I told him, in ten years,
- 12:44when you got to stock your own food, you will
- 12:47understand and thank me for all these bomb expensive foods.
- 12:51Oh that's great, all right. So we were talking about about
- 12:58uh rigger. Joe was asking about my poor food because
- 13:01we grew up poor. We you know, a lot of
- 13:02us grow poor. No, that doesn't mean all of us
- 13:07have money now. It just means that we had to
- 13:10live that life for a little while. Maybe we can
- 13:12eat a little better now.
- 13:13Speaker 1: But it's not.
- 13:18Speaker 2: The reason I want to say this, because I want
- 13:19to say this is some guy said he's driving his
- 13:21kid to school, his fourteen year old, and the kid
- 13:23was saying that, Dad, those are all the foods that
- 13:25we got and they're making fun of it, and we're
- 13:27not making fun of it because we're just saying we
- 13:30had to live it. And now he's trying to tell
- 13:33his kid, look, you're gonna understand when you get a
- 13:35little older and you got to fill that fridge, right,
- 13:37it costs money and things are you know, things are expensive.
- 13:42But we're not making fun of it. We're just we
- 13:44all lived and so but I'm gonna tell you this,
- 13:47there is a valid There is a valid point when
- 13:52people say I grew up poor, I started making a
- 13:55little bit of money, and now I appreciate that a
- 14:00lot more, you know so, But I do want to
- 14:03say this about I didn't mind being poor, right, not
- 14:09poor poor where I couldn't at least.
- 14:10Speaker 1: Eat every day.
- 14:11Speaker 2: But I didn't mind not having the responsibility of a
- 14:15mortgage or a car payment, a big car payment, or
- 14:19a or you know, all the bills.
- 14:21Speaker 1: I didn't mind. It's just a fine line, man.
- 14:25Speaker 2: There's a fine line between when you make just enough
- 14:29money to live a simple life without much accountability to anything,
- 14:33to when you jump up to that next level of
- 14:36now you've got a real job, you decide to buy
- 14:38a house, you decide to have a family.
- 14:40Speaker 1: That changes your whole perspective.
- 14:42Speaker 2: And we're still struggling even today. All right, Rome, the
- 14:47best food Rome, weavo Scorini's and that was.
- 14:51Speaker 1: A great struggle meal right there.
- 14:54Speaker 2: We had refried beans on toast, refried beans on toast.
- 14:59Never heard of it, yo, Rom. I remember we could
- 15:01always eat tacos with cream cheese.
- 15:03Speaker 1: We never had that.
- 15:05Speaker 2: We always had tacos with refried beans. That was always, uh,
- 15:09that was taco night. That was Taco Tuesday at my
- 15:11house because we was poor. Refried bean tacos they were good, man,
- 15:16they were good.
- 15:17Speaker 1: Alrighty four four seven to seven.
- 15:21Speaker 2: Rome, we also ate a lotted ate a lot shredded
- 15:25corn tortillas with eggs and ketchup.
- 15:29Speaker 5: I never had that.
- 15:31Speaker 1: What is wrong with you guys adding ketchup to eggs?
- 15:34By the way, God, that's disgusting.
- 15:38Speaker 2: Noodles, let's see, Rome, we had noodles and baloney mao.
- 15:42Sandwiches still hits the spot sometime, but that's the problem.
- 15:48That's also another issue. A lot of that food we
- 15:52ate when we were struggling is good.
- 15:55Speaker 1: It was good, you know, we liked it.
- 16:00Speaker 2: Who does it like butter on crackers. If you ain't
- 16:03had a salteine with butter on it, boy, you better
- 16:07go have one today. You better make those as appetizers
- 16:10before dinner tonight for your kids.
- 16:13Speaker 1: Already fourteen fout four seven to seven. It's sa vij day,
- 16:18WEENI all right, hey, Roam.
- 16:21Speaker 2: The way everybody's calling you asking for things makes me
- 16:24feel even more special. When I asked you for Village
- 16:26Fest tickets and you gave them to me. I always
- 16:29heard people call and ask and sometimes you would hook
- 16:32them up, so I was grateful.
- 16:34Speaker 1: I decided to try it that day.
- 16:36Speaker 2: You know what they say, a closed mouth doesn't get fed,
- 16:40and I'm so glad I decided to ask. I'm always
- 16:43telling my kids to ask. The worst thing it can
- 16:45happen is they could say no, and you'll just be
- 16:48where you're at when you started. That's hal, that's great advice. Actually,
- 16:52all right, would you send me here? Hey? Roam yellow
- 16:56corn meal mush with Friday eggs with all with all,
- 17:01bit of salt and pepper spatio on top. Didn't know
- 17:04it was a struggle meal till I was an adult.
- 17:07Speaker 1: I just thought it was the best. Grown up.
- 17:10Speaker 2: I just thought it was the best growing up. Still
- 17:12eat till it still eats to this day. My kids
- 17:14and wife don't like it, though, of course, because you've
- 17:16probably got snobby kids and a wife. You know, that's
- 17:20kind of funny. It's kind of funny, how uh, how
- 17:24guys grow up poor and they still kind of are
- 17:27cool with it, but women grow up poor and they
- 17:29get snobby when they don't have to eat poor.
- 17:31Speaker 3: No more me.
- 17:32Speaker 1: I gotta agree with you on this one. Okay.
- 17:36Speaker 7: I grew poor and I still eat like I'm poor,
- 17:38even though I got money to buy me good lunch,
- 17:40I still eat a top roun. Yeah.
- 17:43Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 17:44Speaker 2: Women grow up poor and they get snobby when they
- 17:45come up. Men grow up poor and just stay humble.
- 17:48Speaker 7: But but you know what's crazy, it moves on to
- 17:50other things like my truck. I never used the at
- 17:54because most of my cars I had didn't have a tea. Yeah. Yeah,
- 17:58but I save a lot of money fee a lot
- 18:00of guess that way.
- 18:01Speaker 1: I'm the same way.
- 18:01Speaker 2: I don't use AC and I don't use my air
- 18:03condition unless I absolutely have to.
- 18:05Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I'm growing up poor. It's not that bad
- 18:07because then you.
- 18:08Speaker 2: Get these chicks that grow up poor like that and
- 18:10they're like, oh what, I grew up like this, so
- 18:12I don't go to do this op.
- 18:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 18:13Speaker 1: So it's just we're just so much we're just so
- 18:17much better.
- 18:18Speaker 7: I agree one of the rare time greater day. We'll
- 18:20agree with you have a good day.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Oh hell, the world's coming to and then now Jesus
- 18:26rater to day and I agree on something.
- 18:29Speaker 1: That's the end. You got here already, four.
- 18:31Speaker 2: Tea five four seven to seven year Romeo, Ay, good morning.
- 18:35I love this weather because it doesn't change the fact
- 18:38that I hate my job.
- 18:43Speaker 1: How many of you hate your job?
- 18:45Speaker 2: You know?
- 18:46Speaker 1: That's funny.
- 18:47Speaker 2: I'm going to get back to that job thing and
- 18:48this the second, but I want to read this real quick.
- 18:51Speaker 1: Hey Romeo, I'm a female who grew up poor.
- 18:54Speaker 2: Me and my husband make really good money now, and
- 18:57you're right, I want to live better than I did
- 19:00growing up. He doesn't care. But what is wrong with that?
- 19:04That's the reason we work so hard. Nothing, there's nothing
- 19:09wrong with that. But here's the thing. Here's the problem
- 19:12that I have with your scenario specifically, and I'm sure
- 19:15your husband would agree with me if he was able
- 19:17to text me, and that is you want to be
- 19:21better than when you were poort, which is fine. You
- 19:24worked hard to get there, But don't get mad at
- 19:27your husband if he doesn't. If your husband doesn't doesn't
- 19:30want to run the ac because he's still humble like
- 19:34he was when he was broke, stop degrading him for that.
- 19:38That's the problem. The problem is not that you want
- 19:40one thing and he wants the other. The problem is
- 19:42that you degrade him and he doesn't degrade you.
- 19:46Speaker 1: That's the difference. That's the real difference.
- 19:48Speaker 2: It's not that you want to live better because you
- 19:52grew up or the fact is you women degrade your
- 19:56men who just don't care. They're okay with their with
- 20:01living like they were poor even though they're not. So
- 20:05that's the problem, all right, A four two, five, four
- 20:07or seven to seven. I just got this text message
- 20:10a little bit ago, and I read it to you
- 20:12already once.
- 20:12Speaker 1: Good morning Rome. Hey, I love this weather, but it
- 20:15doesn't change the fact that I hate my job.
- 20:19Speaker 2: And I read that and I started to think about
- 20:22all the jobs I had growing up, all the jobs
- 20:25I've had since before this.
- 20:27Speaker 1: One, and I don't.
- 20:30Speaker 2: Think I've ever actually hated my job. I mean I
- 20:35haven't had I mean, all my jobs were you know, retail,
- 20:39fast food, what I do. I worked at a glass
- 20:42company cutting glass. I worked at a at a truck,
- 20:45at a at a truck. I was just the hand
- 20:50at a truck or the car washer in the hand
- 20:52at a truck leasing company, which was all the guys
- 20:57I worked with great. I don't think I've ever had
- 20:59a job that I actually didn't like. I mean, they
- 21:03weren't the best jobs in the world, but I never
- 21:06hated him. I never, Gosh, I'm trying to think if
- 21:10there was a job that I didn't care for.
- 21:14Speaker 1: I don't think there was.
- 21:15Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember all my jobs part time, full
- 21:19time up until this this radio show. I don't think
- 21:23I've ever had a job that I hated. I don't think.
- 21:28I mean, why do you hate your job? What about
- 21:30it do you hate? Already four two five, four or
- 21:32seven to seven? And you know, you always hear that that,
- 21:35you always hear that, you know, cliche people going to
- 21:38a job they hate because they got to pay their bills.
- 21:41Speaker 1: But I don't know.
- 21:43Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever hated a job that I've
- 21:45ever had. Why do you hate your job? I mean
- 21:47that's hates a strong word. Hate is a strong word.
- 21:52Already four two five, four or seven to seven. Why
- 21:54do you hate your job?
- 21:55Speaker 1: Man?
- 21:56Speaker 2: Somebody was just texting me how he hated his job,
- 21:58likes the weather, hates his job, which I thought was
- 22:00kind of funny.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Because I never I never had a job I hated.
- 22:04I mean, yeah, I don't think I ever did. Maybe
- 22:08a boss that was a jackass, but never really hated.
- 22:10I don't know. I guess not. I guess not.
- 22:13Speaker 2: Already four two four, seven to seven? Year Rome, you're
- 22:19telling me that you never had a job that you hated.
- 22:22Even when you were younger. No, I didn't. I haven't.
- 22:26Speaker 1: I loved all my jobs. I didn't love them all.
- 22:28I mean, well they weren't. How do you say it?
- 22:34Speaker 6: Yeah, good morning?
- 22:35Speaker 1: How what's going on?
- 22:37Speaker 7: Throw me? So I've never hated my job, but I
- 22:40have hated the people I had to work with.
- 22:43Speaker 1: Well is that the same thing?
- 22:45Speaker 7: It's not because I love my job. But so, for instance,
- 22:48this morning, I got an argument with the coworker because
- 22:52ray to day was going to the restroom and you
- 22:55try to tell me, well, it's not break here.
- 22:56Speaker 6: I said, So you're going to.
- 22:57Speaker 7: Sit here and dictate when I can go to the
- 22:59pooper looking under your business? This is this is advice
- 23:04I give you everybody. The smart wise man coops on
- 23:08company time, the full weight shall break? Can I told
- 23:11him that? And I won't walk my butt to the restroot. Okay,
- 23:14it's not my job I hate. It's the people that
- 23:16I work with. Sometimes that.
- 23:19Speaker 2: All right, Well, there you go. It's not the job,
- 23:25it's the people. I mean, that's probably true of most people.
- 23:27Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 23:28Speaker 2: I never I never hated a job, So I don't
- 23:30know already fourteen five, four seven to seven.
- 23:34Speaker 1: If someone was telling me they hate their job, right,
- 23:36and I was talking about I never I never had
- 23:39a job that I hated.
- 23:40Speaker 2: I just I don't I can't remember one. My jobs
- 23:44were all okay, I mean yeah, I never hated a
- 23:47job already four two, five, four or seven to seven. Hey, rong,
- 23:51raiter Dave is wrong. The reason a reason to hate
- 23:56your job is because of the people.
- 23:58Speaker 1: You work with.
- 24:00Speaker 2: So what is he talking about? Yeah, I would agree
- 24:03with that. What are the reasons you hate your job?
- 24:08That's a good question. I would have thought I would
- 24:10have thought that. Also, when Raider Dave said that you
- 24:14don't like the people that you work with, that would
- 24:17be why you hate your job, right, Why you dread going.
- 24:21Speaker 1: To it every day? Yeah, I don't know.
- 24:25Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 24:26Speaker 2: I've never I've never, uh not like not liked the job.
- 24:31They were all fine, they were all, you know, fine
- 24:34for what they were already four two, five, four or
- 24:37seven seven. Hey, Romeo, like Raider Dave said, dealing with
- 24:44people at his job, he doesn't like you're telling me
- 24:47that you've never hated being on the radio with all
- 24:50the dummies you have.
- 24:51Speaker 1: To talk to. No, I but no, this is a
- 24:55great job. This is a great job. I would advise
- 25:00everybody to get a radio job if they could have.
- 25:03They're great.
- 25:07Speaker 2: Why would you hate your job because you work to
- 25:10the work the people. It's got to be the people, right,
- 25:14that would be I mean, I'm trying to think all
- 25:17the people I've ever worked with were fine.
- 25:19Speaker 1: There's nothing wrong with them.
- 25:21Speaker 2: Maybe one annoying boss, but not enough to hate the job.
- 25:26Speaker 1: I yeah, I agree with you. I think Raider Dave
- 25:28is wrong.
- 25:29Speaker 2: I think one of the reasons to hate a job
- 25:31is because of the people you work with, not the
- 25:35actual job description.
- 25:37Speaker 1: Right.
- 25:39Speaker 2: I don't think anybody's doing a job that they say
- 25:44they hate because of the actual job. It's got to
- 25:47be other factors of the job. Right now, Maybe I'm
- 25:50wrong about that.
- 25:50Speaker 1: I don't know already fourteen five, four or seven seven.
- 25:53Speaker 2: It's taked for me to have this conversation because all
- 25:55the jobs I've ever had I thought were fine, didn't
- 25:57have a problem with them. Wouldn't that be the reason
- 26:00that you hate your job is because of the people
- 26:03that you work with. I would think that would be
- 26:04the only that would be the biggest factor, right, coim
- 26:09on you how it's going on?
- 26:10Speaker 3: Hey, you know what I do for a living, so
- 26:13I can't say it, but I hate my boss.
- 26:16Speaker 7: That's why I'm working in LA.
- 26:18Speaker 6: For the time being.
- 26:18Speaker 3: In the people you work with is the reason why
- 26:24you do not like your job.
- 26:25Speaker 1: The only reason that is.
- 26:29Speaker 8: Spot on, spot on, damn spot on.
- 26:36Speaker 6: Because if I stay here, I'm gonna end up. You know,
- 26:41have to check in.
- 26:46Speaker 1: Already.
- 26:46Speaker 2: Four two four seven to seven eight. Rom I worked
- 26:49for the State of I've worked for the state for Caltrans.
- 26:52Most of here, most of us here like our jobs,
- 26:54but a lot of us agree the pay could be better,
- 26:57but none of us want to leave because the benefits
- 27:01are great and we have guaranteed job security. If they
- 27:05would pay more, we would all be happy. Also, just
- 27:08like everyone else, a lot of us here don't care
- 27:11for some of the people we work with. Like most jobs. Yeah, coworking.
- 27:17I think the reason most people don't like their jobs
- 27:19is because of coworkers.
- 27:21Speaker 1: I mean pay. I get paid to pay, And I'm
- 27:24gonna explain this to you guys real quick.
- 27:27Speaker 2: When it comes to getting paid, the reason most of you,
- 27:32most of you, and I'm talking about guys with jobs
- 27:36with jobs like this, is you spend too much money.
- 27:40You wish you made more money because you spend too
- 27:43much money. Okay, had you just live within a budget
- 27:47of what you make pay would be fine.
- 27:51Speaker 1: Okay.
- 27:52Speaker 2: Now, I'm not saying everybody doesn't want more money, right,
- 27:55but a lot of you buy things you don't need,
- 28:00or buy things you know.
- 28:02Speaker 1: Out of your out of your pay range. You know,
- 28:06and is what it is.
- 28:09Speaker 2: But yeah, I get it, though, I get what you're
- 28:11saying already four two five, four or seven to seven.
- 28:14But I think the biggest reason people hate their jobs
- 28:17as coworkers, I don't think there's I don't think there's
- 28:20any any question. Right, all right, it is time to
- 28:24talk to James Burton. He is our insurance guy and
- 28:28the guy.
- 28:29Speaker 1: You know insurances.
- 28:29Speaker 2: They're always ripping us off, so we got to figure
- 28:32out how to save as much as we can.
- 28:34Speaker 1: What's going on, James.
- 28:36Speaker 5: I'll be on here to talk about people. Well, I
- 28:41thought we were gonna talk about why people hate their job. Well,
- 28:43you don't hate your job, though I disagree with your
- 28:48reason as to why they hate their job. I don't
- 28:49think it's co workers, co workers, you know what I
- 28:53think it is. But I think it's their managers. No
- 28:57thinking about the loud the jobs I've had before or
- 29:00sometimes managers.
- 29:02Speaker 1: Coworker, manager is a coworker. I guess the boss man
- 29:05always a little.
- 29:05Speaker 5: Bit because you got somebody trying to micro manage you
- 29:07when you know your job, that type of stuff with
- 29:10your job miserable.
- 29:11Speaker 2: Well that's pretty uh yeah, okay, yeah, all right, well
- 29:14Tomato to model.
- 29:15Speaker 5: That's my take.
- 29:17Speaker 1: You might be right, you might be right, totally right
- 29:19about it.
- 29:19Speaker 2: I mean it, but I've never had any bad coworkers,
- 29:22so that's why I didn't.
- 29:23Speaker 1: I just would assume that that's why.
- 29:25Speaker 5: Right, that's because you've got the cush jobo. You sit
- 29:28on here, top, sit on here and top trash all
- 29:30day long. Hey, that's that's the life.
- 29:35Speaker 2: It is a life, I will say. Oh man, all right,
- 29:42so we bring James in to talk about insurance. Obviously
- 29:45it's a scam until you really need it, and it's
- 29:48the greatest thing in the world.
- 29:50Speaker 5: Absolutely. I always tell people you rather have it or
- 29:53not need it than need it and not have it.
- 29:55Speaker 2: Yeah, man, because you could really screw up your life
- 29:57if you don't have the right insurance, if you don't
- 29:59have a what you need when something goes wrong exactly.
- 30:01You're absolutely right about that. So what's what's new an insurance?
- 30:04I mean California for a while there was having people
- 30:07were losing their home insurances on technicalities. Nobody wanted to
- 30:10renew for a while. I think you were even writing
- 30:13new policies right, just a few years back.
- 30:15Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. There was a lot of different you
- 30:17know things where companies were like tightening their restrictions and
- 30:19stuff like that. They are starting to finally loosen them up.
- 30:23One of the reasons is the state of California finally,
- 30:26I won't say they gave in, but they they're going
- 30:28to allow companies to start opening up for to high
- 30:32rate higher in the fire areas. So that will be
- 30:35a big thing to open up.
- 30:37Speaker 1: What about wait, wait say that again.
- 30:39Speaker 5: So you know how they close it off. And they
- 30:40basically look at Bakersfield as like La and everything else
- 30:43because it's in California. So they were restricting a number
- 30:47of policies written fire zones thinking because all the stuff
- 30:50that happened down south in the fires, it was affecting
- 30:52all of California, so they were slowing it down.
- 30:55Speaker 1: I see what you're saying.
- 30:56Speaker 5: But the state said we're not going to allow you
- 30:59to raise rate. Then the companies that we just want
- 31:01write that's why they weren't writing.
- 31:03Speaker 1: Gotcha. Gotcha.
- 31:04Speaker 5: Now the state is saying you can raise rates in
- 31:06those high fire pronos.
- 31:08Speaker 2: Well, yeah, but isn't that more fair because I don't
- 31:10live in a fire area.
- 31:12Speaker 5: Absolutely more fair. It's more especially for us here in Bakersfield,
- 31:15because those people will get rated accordingly to where they
- 31:18live at and it'll open back up for us where
- 31:21eventually they'll start to see the rates start to go
- 31:23back down in a little bit.
- 31:24Speaker 1: So, well, that's good.
- 31:25Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 31:25Speaker 1: Is this is that going to be a long process
- 31:27this year, next year?
- 31:28Speaker 5: No, that most companies are thinking about June or July.
- 31:30You're going to start seem shift.
- 31:32Speaker 1: But that's when renewals come up, right, so it'll.
- 31:34Speaker 5: Be knows are based on when you started it.
- 31:37Speaker 1: No, No, bue.
- 31:37Speaker 2: I'm saying is usually when you get a rate change,
- 31:39whether it's up or down, happens when you're at your renewal.
- 31:43Speaker 5: Right, Okay, it won't be in the middle of a
- 31:45policy term. It'll be at your renewal.
- 31:47Speaker 1: Okay.
- 31:47Speaker 5: But there's some there's some good competitive rais right now
- 31:50with a lot of different companies, So.
- 31:51Speaker 2: So what what about car insurance? I know there was
- 31:54a there was some time I think you were telling
- 31:58me a while back that some of these car insurance
- 32:01companies were making you pay six months out or something
- 32:03like that.
- 32:04Speaker 1: Do you remember that conversation?
- 32:06Speaker 5: If you have a bad history of payments, okay, those
- 32:10people that doesn't pay their bills and they let their
- 32:12policies can Okay, you try to come back, they'd be like, no,
- 32:15you got to pay the little six months.
- 32:20Speaker 1: Well that's good. So what do we uh?
- 32:24Speaker 2: So, nothing's really changed other than markets opening back up.
- 32:28Speaker 5: People have an opportunity. Some rates are starting to see
- 32:30some changes in there. So I mean in our agency
- 32:33now we do have some new companies. So I mean
- 32:35we we've already had a lot of them, but now
- 32:36we have more. So I mean people also, of people
- 32:39what you do when you well, what I do and
- 32:42what my agency would makes it different now since I
- 32:44transition from being basically an out an agent where I
- 32:47can only write one carrier before. Now when people call in,
- 32:51I'm going to quote four or five different companies for them.
- 32:53So the good thing is by doing that, I'll be
- 32:56able to have them give them more opportunities, more more
- 32:59rates you know, to choose from, and coverage options to
- 33:02choose from. And also when renewals come up, I'm looking
- 33:06for them to say, hey, there are renewals coming up,
- 33:08let me reshop it. Do we get a better rate
- 33:10with a different company for him? So it works in
- 33:12their benefit that I'm always looking for the best prize
- 33:15for him, and I'm even I still have the same philosophy.
- 33:18A lot of agents will charge broker fees and stuff
- 33:20like that, and that's just not something that we've ever done.
- 33:22So we don't charge any broker fees. We just charge
- 33:24whatever the insurance company is.
- 33:25Speaker 2: And one of the good things I will say this,
- 33:27and I don't say much good about James, but that
- 33:31he'll give you a call. You may not even know
- 33:33your renewals coming up. You may not even know you
- 33:35can find a better insurance rate. He'll actually sun him
- 33:38or someone from his office will actually call and you say, hey,
- 33:40I was checking into this. I found out you can
- 33:42get a better rate going this way moving forward. And
- 33:45I don't know that you know a lot of your company,
- 33:47a lot of your insurance agents are doing that for
- 33:49you every.
- 33:50Speaker 1: Year, every six months. What is it every year?
- 33:52Speaker 5: I don't know. It depends on sometimes every six months
- 33:54for autos, every year for houses there sometimes it's a
- 33:56year on the audels. But yeah, we do call.
- 33:59Speaker 1: What's your phone number?
- 34:00Speaker 5: Eight three six thirteen hundred is our office number. And
- 34:04I also have a website. Now it's kind of one
- 34:06of the companies, but it gives you a good way
- 34:08if you want to start a quote online. It's ensure
- 34:10you Now dot net.
- 34:12Speaker 2: All right, hold on, guys, all right, so James Burtensira, James,
- 34:15give me your phone number real.
- 34:16Speaker 5: Quick, eight three six thirteen hundred.
- 34:19Speaker 1: And your website. They want to get a quote.
- 34:21Speaker 5: Ensure you now dot net.
- 34:22Speaker 2: All we do is call you and you can do
- 34:24quotes over the phone, quotes some text.
- 34:26Speaker 1: I would get the text you right.
- 34:27Speaker 5: Yeah, they can text. They can text directly to that number.
- 34:29If they go to the website, they can actually start
- 34:31a quote online and it'll give me the information and
- 34:34I'll follow up and after I run several quotes for him.
- 34:36Speaker 2: Okay, And I want to tell you this about I
- 34:40know all you idiots. You go online, you see the
- 34:45thing quote online. You'll go to some website and it'll
- 34:48quote you five different companies. It's the same thing James
- 34:51does and you can talk to him. You can call
- 34:54him and talk to him when you need somebody to
- 34:56fix something, and.
- 34:57Speaker 5: All massage, all massage the numbers to make sure right,
- 35:01make sure the coverages are right. We'll have a conversation.
- 35:04So one thing is new only in our agency now.
- 35:06We do have the opportunity now because before you can
- 35:08only write either auto or home. But what some of
- 35:11our carriers now are starting back to let you bundle,
- 35:14So we do have the opportunity to bundle coverages so
- 35:16people can get those multi policies accounts. Yeah. Oh, and
- 35:20one of the carriers now actually and this is a
- 35:22discount everybody will love. Almost everybody you know has a
- 35:25Costco or a Sam's Club card, right, Yeah, one of
- 35:27the new carriers I have. If you have a Costco
- 35:29or a Sam's Club card, you can get a discount only. Yeah.
- 35:33I was surprised on that one because before it you
- 35:35could just be professions like law enforcement or teachers, or
- 35:38you work for the state. But now they if you
- 35:41have a Costco or a Sam's Club card, which is everybody,
- 35:44you can qualify for a discount.
- 35:46Speaker 1: I think I have both.
- 35:48Speaker 5: A lot of people do. We have both of them too.
- 35:52Speaker 2: But anyway, one of the things I did, what I
- 35:54just want to point out is I know a lot
- 35:57of you guys are looking for discounts, so you shop
- 35:59rate and you just go online to whatever website says
- 36:02auto insurance on it, and it'll give you the major carriers,
- 36:06or it'll give you five different and you still have
- 36:09to go through a computer. You don't know who your
- 36:12agent is, or you don't know who's on your side
- 36:14helping you out. And sometimes it gets a little frustrating
- 36:17when you can just call James, because James is right here.
- 36:20Speaker 1: He lives in bakers You know, if you.
- 36:21Speaker 5: Have help, people want to see me face the face.
- 36:25Not many, but if you want to sit down and
- 36:27have a conversation, whether it's about like I said, we
- 36:29do auto home life business. If you want to have
- 36:32a conversation and get more information, we can do it.
- 36:34Speaker 2: I just think there's this idea that people think if
- 36:36they do it on the internet that it's cheaper, or
- 36:38if I go through and it's not, it's it's it's
- 36:42the same price without the personal touch. It's really what
- 36:46it comes down to.
- 36:47Speaker 1: So I just thought. I'll let you guys know that.
- 36:50Do you do pet insurance?
- 36:51Speaker 5: We do do. I don't write it very often. I
- 36:56know there are some people that ask for it. Do
- 36:58we do? We do have an opportunity. Hey, people care
- 37:01about their dogs, and it depends the ranges I see
- 37:06for pet insurance is probably anywhere from thirty to sixty
- 37:09dollars a month. But it does help save by those
- 37:11vet bills. Oh yeah, I've got a couple of people
- 37:14that got it and when they had to take their
- 37:15pets to the vet, they did save some money. Yeah.
- 37:17Speaker 2: So we got car, a car, we got auto, we
- 37:19got home, we got pet, A lot of.
- 37:22Speaker 5: Life insurance, business insurance, if you name it, Romeo, we
- 37:25do it. We umbrella insurance. A lot of people we
- 37:27get business owner saying do you do general liability? Yeah,
- 37:29we do general liability. We do workers comp insurance, we
- 37:32do commercial auto insurance. I mean, if you name it,
- 37:35we'll do it. I had one person called years back saying,
- 37:38can you insure an airplane? I'm like, well, I've never
- 37:41insured one, but let me find out. And sure enough
- 37:43I found out and I insured his airplane.
- 37:45Speaker 2: So I mean, really, yeah, what about what about livestock insurance, goat, sheep,
- 37:49cowst things like that.
- 37:51Speaker 5: I have never done any No, those are a little
- 37:53bit different, but if if somebody asked, I can definitely inquire. Okay,
- 37:58So there are some companies that what are called farm
- 38:01ranch policies, but it mostly ensures like farm equipment and
- 38:04stuff like that, not necessarily the live livestock. Yeah, cause
- 38:07I don't know. You imagine a person gets insurance and
- 38:09they really sold their cow so they can make money.
- 38:12So my cow got hit.
- 38:17Speaker 1: I'll tell you this off the air. I don't know
- 38:21if I could talk about it on the air. Tell
- 38:22everybody your fun.
- 38:24Speaker 5: A three six thirteen hundred, or they can go to
- 38:27ensure you now dot net and get started with an
- 38:30auto home condo. Quote Renters insurance, Oh I forgot Renters Insurance.
- 38:33Speaker 2: Oh we got to get into that too. Hold on,
- 38:37James Burton's here, he's our insurance guys. What do we
- 38:40call you a broker? What do we call you a dealer?
- 38:44Speaker 1: Insurance?
- 38:47Speaker 2: With multiple companies to quote and figure out how to
- 38:51get you the best plan.
- 38:53Speaker 1: I don't want to say the best rates.
- 38:55Speaker 2: I want to say plan because sometimes people don't understand
- 38:58which we're going to talk about in a minute what
- 39:00insurance does for them and when they don't have the
- 39:02right coverages. Condos Renters also a couple of things I didn't.
- 39:09Speaker 1: I never had Renters insurance in my life, right.
- 39:12Speaker 5: Renters insurance is dirt cheap Romeo okay, And I'm talking
- 39:15about twelve to fifteen dollars a month on the low end.
- 39:18If you want more coverage, you might be up to
- 39:21twenty twenty five dollars a month.
- 39:22Speaker 1: And what does that do for you? What is renders in?
- 39:24Speaker 5: Renters insurance covers your stuff. So basically, the owner of
- 39:27the building or the house or the apartment or whatever
- 39:30you live in, they have coverage for the building. They
- 39:32don't have coverage for your stuff inside. So Renders insurance
- 39:36are going to cover everything from your furniture, to your clothes,
- 39:39to your shoes, your ladies that got those handbags, electronics,
- 39:42all that stuff is covered under Renter's insurance. So I
- 39:45mean it's basically anything that didn't come in the house
- 39:48that you're living in is covered under Renters insurance.
- 39:51Speaker 2: What about condos? Why is that different? Well, condos different
- 39:53than house at home.
- 39:54Speaker 5: Condos are different than houses because condos they have in association,
- 39:58and the association covers the exterior of the building. Your
- 40:03condo policy will cover from the drywall in. So basically,
- 40:06if your drywall inside is damage, you're flooring your carpage damage,
- 40:10and it's going to cover your contents and stuff like
- 40:12a regular home policy. It just doesn't cover the outside
- 40:14of the building.
- 40:15Speaker 2: All of the different insurances that are available to get
- 40:18you got your auto, your home. Which we all know
- 40:20about condo. I'm sure anybody owns a condo, they know
- 40:24about it. They do you have to have it if
- 40:26you have a loan, yes, okay, yes. Renters is probably
- 40:28something a lot of people aren't as familiar with or
- 40:31is that pretty common.
- 40:33Speaker 5: It's not common. They know about it, but most people
- 40:35don't get it because they don't think about it. Some
- 40:37people think, hey, I live there, my landlord has insurance
- 40:40and I'm down. But the landlord's insurance doesn't cover you.
- 40:44The landlords insurance covers their building, it doesn't cover their stuff.
- 40:48I had years ago one of my customers, he was
- 40:51an owner from some properties. His tenant tried to sue
- 40:54him because the apartment caught on fire and there's stuff
- 40:57inside burned up. But he's not liable responsible for their stuff.
- 41:01So a lot of places will actually make the tenants
- 41:03get Renters insurance. And if you think twenty bucks a month,
- 41:06I mean you go out somewherehere. Is that a drink
- 41:09is not even two drinks? I know, it's one drink.
- 41:12So if you can sacrifice one drink a month, you
- 41:14can you can afford Renters insurance.
- 41:16Speaker 1: I've never owned anything worth insurance.
- 41:20Speaker 5: You say that, but if something happened, if you lost
- 41:23all your stuff inside, your clothes, your I mean your furniture,
- 41:26your couches, your refrigerator, your computers, all that stuff, is
- 41:31it worth twenty bucks a month to get it all round?
- 41:33Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 41:33Speaker 1: Absolutely it is, absolutely it is. So we got that.
- 41:36Then you do pet insurance.
- 41:38Speaker 2: Umbrella coverages are some things that I know a couple
- 41:42of my friends got because they had boys.
- 41:48Speaker 5: Let's talk about insurance because a lot of people don't
- 41:51really know this. I want umbrella insurance, and they think, oh,
- 41:53I can get umbrella and I can lower my other insurances.
- 41:56And that's not how insurance works to get And I'm
- 41:59saying this because because we're just talking about the Jesus
- 42:02umbrella is basically imagine that yesterday it was raining, you
- 42:05put an umbrella over your head to cover from getting
- 42:08wet up. Okay, An umbrella insurance covers the other policies
- 42:11and excess of what they are. So let's say you
- 42:14have one hundred thousand dollars on your policy now in
- 42:17liability coverage, or you have a half million dollars in liability,
- 42:20but you're worried about somebody suing you for more than that.
- 42:24The umbrella insurance is an additional layer of coverage. Like
- 42:28right now, I just did a quote for a million bucks.
- 42:30It was like three hundred and fifty dollars a year
- 42:33for a million dollars in liability. But the downside, a
- 42:36lot of people think I can just get that and
- 42:37I'm good. No, you have to increase your underlying limits.
- 42:41So the limits on your auto and your home or
- 42:43renners have to be higher before you can actually qualify
- 42:46for the umbrella.
- 42:47Speaker 1: All right, James, give ever your phone number.
- 42:49Speaker 2: I still want to talk about a life insurance and
- 42:51a couple other things where you get out of here,
- 42:52So what's your fun.
- 42:53Speaker 5: Eight three, six thirteen hundred, or they can go to
- 42:56ensure you now dot net?
- 42:59Speaker 2: All right, talking to the church guy. James Burton's here,
- 43:01he's our church agent. We talked to him about well everything.
- 43:04Good morning, James, Good morning Romeo. All right, so first
- 43:07things first, talked about a professional conversation with me. Huh,
- 43:11why because we play golf and hang out and talk
- 43:14so much to.
- 43:17Speaker 5: Everybody. You know what's fun? Well, what's good about you? Romeo?
- 43:22You could be the biggest trash talker. You know how
- 43:25to have fun. But at the same time, you ask
- 43:29questions that are like sometimes they're kind of intriguing questions,
- 43:31or you'll ask questions that are like, really make you
- 43:33think sometimes because I'm smarter than everybody, you know, what
- 43:36you it's funny that you say you're the smartest man.
- 43:38What do you say that you're tag on the smartest
- 43:40man in radio or something like that, and you actually
- 43:43are pretty smart. But most people hear you on the radio,
- 43:53they think guy has a damn clown or ask you know,
- 43:56but you are pretty You're you're a pretty smart god, I'll.
- 44:00Speaker 1: Give you that. James. Uh, what do you do?
- 44:06Speaker 2: Somebody who just texted me, what do you do if
- 44:08you have renters insurance but possible but possibly have mold
- 44:12in the walls? And ceilings and it's reflecting your health. Well,
- 44:18is that an insurance issue?
- 44:19Speaker 5: It is an insurance issue, and it's a it's a
- 44:22liability issue for the renter's insurance doesn't cover that. Okay,
- 44:26it's a liability issue for the property owner. Okay, So
- 44:29what happens if your health is affected by that, they
- 44:32could their liability. They could get sued liably for it.
- 44:35So they have just that you own the building, you
- 44:37have liability coverage, and a tenant files a lawsuit against
- 44:39you because the mold is affecting them and they've been Basically,
- 44:43there'd have to be a process. The landlord have to
- 44:45be put on notice, Hey we got this mold. It's
- 44:47affecting my health. I've been to the doctor. This, that
- 44:49and the other has been done. And if the landlord
- 44:51doesn't take action or do anything about it, then you
- 44:54could potentially have a lawsuit. But it can't just be hey,
- 44:57you know it was mold there and you didn't say anything,
- 44:59and all of a sudden you you're sick. But everything
- 45:02takes upon of what's going on exactly, do a pay
- 45:05per trail of what's going on. But definitely the landlord
- 45:07if that's the issue. The landlord needs to know about
- 45:09it because if it's fits in the walls a lot
- 45:10of times it's in the dry wall, or if it's flooring,
- 45:13is something that needs to be cut out. But that's
- 45:16a great question, she poso, and I want to address
- 45:18this real quick. Mold is not covered under insurance, under
- 45:22hardly any insurance. And the reason is is insurance covers
- 45:26for what's called accidental direct physical loss, meaning something happened
- 45:30and something changed that sudden. Accidental direct physics meaning something
- 45:34all of a sudden happened, but mold doesn't happen all
- 45:37of a sudden. Mold is something that's been growing a
- 45:41period of time, you know what I mean. It's like rot.
- 45:43People say I got rot. My sink's rotted out, or
- 45:45the wood underneath this rotted out. It's been going on
- 45:48over a period of time. It's not covered. But if
- 45:51the pipe bust in your house floods because the pipe bust,
- 45:54or the toilet overfloater or the hot water heater exploded
- 45:56or something like that that's sudden and accidental, that stuff is covered.
- 46:00But it's still something the landlord does need to address.
- 46:03Speaker 2: All right, I want to ask you about two different
- 46:05things before we get out of here that people need
- 46:07to understand, and one is coverages. We always look for
- 46:12the cheapest rate, and sometimes the cheapest rate is not
- 46:17the best coverage for us, and we go, well, I'm
- 46:20not save me five dollars, Well, five dollars more might
- 46:23save you one hundred thousand dollars more or in a
- 46:25lawsuit in the long.
- 46:27Speaker 5: Run, exactly. And the good thing is the state of
- 46:30California has forced that the minimums be increased starting last year.
- 46:35Speaker 1: But they're still too low.
- 46:36Speaker 5: They are still too low, but they're they're more sufficient
- 46:40than they were. It used to be horrible, like you
- 46:43could have coverage where people have ten thousand dollars in
- 46:46property damage covers if you get the cars cost more
- 46:48than ten grand your sol you know what I mean.
- 46:51Speaker 2: There's those little cameras in the front of my truck,
- 46:54right ten thousand dollars.
- 46:55Speaker 5: Exactly for them to fix the damage and recalibrator. It's
- 46:57going to cost me more than that. So the coverage
- 47:00is definitely important, making sure you have the right coverage,
- 47:02and especially if you're a property owner. It's crazy, I
- 47:05get these guys, they got a half million dollar house
- 47:07or a seven hundred thousand dollars house and they'll say
- 47:09I want this, I want the lottest coverage on the auto. No,
- 47:12I'm not going to do that to you because if
- 47:13something happens and you're sued, then they're going to come
- 47:15after your house, you know. So those are things that
- 47:18people going online, and I'm glad you brought that up.
- 47:21You go online and you get insurance, you don't know
- 47:23what you're just getting it because you feel like you're covered,
- 47:25but no one's had the conversation about.
- 47:27Speaker 2: It because it meets whatever qualifications you have to have
- 47:31because that's what the bank says or whatever. But you
- 47:34don't realize what could happen to you.
- 47:36Speaker 5: Absolutely, if you have that, you're exactly right if the
- 47:39bank says it or the stake says it. You met
- 47:41the qualification, but you didn't really protect yourself if something
- 47:44should happen. So I don't think a.
- 47:45Speaker 2: Lot of homeowners think about that. I think they really
- 47:47need to look to the people can come after your home.
- 47:50You need to really watch what's going on.
- 47:52Speaker 5: Yep. I've seen people trust me because I've been in
- 47:54this game for since ninety eight, Romeo, a long time.
- 47:57So before I became an agent. Came an agent in
- 48:00O five, But before that, I did claims and I
- 48:03did underwriting. I've seen people get leans put against their house.
- 48:06I've seen people have their wages garnished because they didn't
- 48:09have Years ago, I had a guy and this guy
- 48:11worked his tail off. He had two jobs. I said why.
- 48:14He said, because when I was twenty years old, I
- 48:16hit a guy and I killed him, and he was
- 48:19on the hook for all this money he had got
- 48:21sued for. Oh yeah, so he said. One job goes
- 48:24to pay for this family's dad that I killed. They
- 48:27were counting on his money for livelihood, and the other
- 48:30one is from my family. You know. So it's like,
- 48:32but he had to pay back so much money for
- 48:34all these years because he had his poor coverage and
- 48:37he killed somebody. You know, they don't have good coverage.
- 48:39A lot of bad things can have.
- 48:40Speaker 2: A lot of bad things can happen. Yeah, So James
- 48:43Burton's here. He is our insurance guy. We like to
- 48:45talk to him about all the things that are happening
- 48:48in insurance in California because it does change. Sometimes it
- 48:51looks like things are gonna gonna get There's some positive
- 48:55things happening in insurance that might help us over the
- 48:57next few months lower our insurance with insurance companies in California.
- 49:02Speaker 1: So you need to.
- 49:03Speaker 5: Get fairly lower, but it'll be more options and opportunities
- 49:06with the CAT rating that's going to be coming in June.
- 49:09Speaker 1: Okay, so we'll give James a call.
- 49:11Speaker 5: What's your number eight three, six thirteen hundred, or they
- 49:14can visit ensure you now dot net.
- 49:17Speaker 2: Let's talk about life insurance real quick before we get
- 49:19you out of here. Very important for a lot of people,
- 49:22and for some reason, I think the stereotype of life
- 49:25insurance is I can't afford it, and I don't know
- 49:29if that's necessarily true.
- 49:30Speaker 5: It's not true. That's about the same price range as
- 49:33we talked about for renters insurance. Maybe not quite as
- 49:37cheap though, but I'll just ensure the guy he got
- 49:41he's a fairly young guy though, but he got a
- 49:43million dollar policy, a million dollar term in case something
- 49:46happens to his wife or his kids. It was like
- 49:48fifty five sixty bucks a month for his million dollars.
- 49:51And then he got one hundred thousand dollars on both
- 49:54his wife and his daughter, and he got permanent policies
- 49:57on them.
- 49:57Speaker 1: So let's talk about the difference real quick.
- 49:59Speaker 5: Okay. The term policy is how long term policy varies.
- 50:04It could be ten, twenty thirty years. If you're young enough,
- 50:06you can even get forty year policy sometime. And basically
- 50:09I'll always equivalate it to term is like renting insurance.
- 50:13Permanent is like buying a house. So with the term,
- 50:16you lock the rate in for the number of years
- 50:19that you selected. So if you got a great rate
- 50:22because you're young, you have that rate locked in for
- 50:25the next twenty thirty years, and in that time, hopefully
- 50:28you have taken that opportunity to build your wealth by
- 50:31investing the difference and having plenty of money to start
- 50:34investing in and you know, whether it be mutual funds
- 50:36for one ks, whatever it may be.
- 50:38Speaker 2: Okay, So outside of that, I just want to talk
- 50:40about the dummy like me, You're twenty six years old,
- 50:43you get buried, you have a kid, now you're a
- 50:46family at twenty seven, twenty eight, a term life insurance
- 50:50for twenty years twenty five years.
- 50:52Speaker 6: Okay.
- 50:53Speaker 2: People will say, well, I'm just renting insurance. It's a
- 50:55waste of money. Not if something happens. Absolutely, a million
- 51:00for your wife and kid at something that's very manageable
- 51:04for you for twenty five years. Hopefully you'll never have
- 51:07to use it. But the idea that you may and
- 51:11if it happens that is it was worth it the
- 51:15fifty five dollars or whatever you said.
- 51:17Speaker 5: Absolutely, And i'mmost share a real quick story on me.
- 51:20I always tell this one people when I'm sitting down
- 51:21with them because this just shows you two sides of
- 51:24the spectrum. I had two couples. This was years back,
- 51:26maybe ten twelve years back. One couple got the insurance
- 51:29for their family. The other one didn't. One guy coming
- 51:33home from work, worked a double shift, falls asleep at
- 51:35the wheel, crashes and he dies. Their family got the insurance.
- 51:40His wife, who worked part time, she was able to
- 51:43take that money. She was able to pay the house off,
- 51:45paying the car off. She was still able to keep
- 51:47working part time and be there at home for her
- 51:48kids while they were growing up, and it helped them out.
- 51:53The other family, they didn't get the insurance, and at
- 51:55the time, I think it was about twenty five dollars
- 51:57a month. Who's a young guy died? Guy died in
- 52:00a freak accident at work, gets buried in sand or something.
- 52:04Oh wow, they had five kids. The wife got pregnant
- 52:08in high school. She'd never had a job in their family.
- 52:11She was kind of a strange from her family. They
- 52:13ended up in the homeless shelter. Wow, that's the difference
- 52:16between getting the life insurance and not. Is it worth
- 52:19twenty five to fifty dollars a month for you to
- 52:22get some kind of type of coverage for your family.
- 52:24That's what you have to ask yourself.
- 52:25Speaker 2: Well, and the coverage should be enough to pay off
- 52:27the house at minimum, because then they don't then they
- 52:30have a place to live.
- 52:32Speaker 1: That's what I always tell everybody. Don't lose your home.
- 52:34Speaker 5: Absolutely a place to live. If you're a man, you
- 52:36got to think about it. If you're responsible for your
- 52:38kids to have shelter over their head, your daughter's going
- 52:42to the proms at ken Signet, is getting that first car,
- 52:44paying college tuition. Those are things we talk about and
- 52:47how much insurance do you think you really need? And
- 52:49some people are like, wow, I don't can't leave them
- 52:51that much. Well that's fine. Least something. Don't have them
- 52:54having a car wash for you because you don't have
- 52:55any insurance in place, or selling dinners or something crazy, like.
- 52:59Speaker 2: Something crazy for something that that, I mean, twenty five
- 53:03dollars or fifty dollars might seem like a lot, but
- 53:06if you really break it down, what do you waste
- 53:08fifty bucks on it a month?
- 53:10Speaker 5: It's less than a dollar a day. Wrong now for
- 53:12some of these situations.
- 53:13Speaker 2: So I just want you guys to understand that it's
- 53:15very important, and I just you know, protect your family,
- 53:18even though a lot a lot of you will sit
- 53:20there and go, oh, that's crazy. I know after twenty
- 53:22five years, if I don't use it, it's gone. I'm like, yeah,
- 53:25but it's twenty five years of if something happened. That's
- 53:28what we pay insurance for, if something happens, because I
- 53:31could have James for the next hour and a half
- 53:33tell you what happened to people that didn't have insurance
- 53:36and something happened exactly, and maybe.
- 53:38Speaker 1: That's on the term.
- 53:38Speaker 5: If you get the permanent it's you know, the permanent requise.
- 53:41You get the permanent policy. The permanent policy is for
- 53:44your life, so you lock in that rate that's the
- 53:46same rate for the rest of your life. You can

- 54:46Speaker 2: No, I didn't feed it the first night, showed up
- 54:48the porch, left for a little while, came back a
- 54:52couple of days went by, I kept coming back to
- 54:54my front door on my porch, so finally I just
- 54:57picked it up through it in the backyard and now listen,
- 55:00But a friend of mine was asking me the other
- 55:02day how I because I call it homeless, and how
- 55:06how he got his name because he was homeless until
- 55:08he showed up. Now I got a home. And so
- 55:10that's how this cat ended up with its name homeless.
- 55:13And some of the ways you come up with your

- 56:46around like a princess. She won't move. She'll be like,

- 57:01their names? Talking about your pets, man, some of you
- 57:04have pets that have unique names. Some of you have
- 57:06pets that they got a name based on some characteristic
- 57:10of them.
- 57:11Speaker 1: I mean, how did you name your.
- 57:14Speaker 2: Dogs or your cats? Are your pets? Already four two five,
- 57:16four or seven to seven? Eggo Morner Romeo. Okay. So
- 57:21we had a cat named Katie and she was named
- 57:24after my in laws dog who had just died. And
- 57:28then we had a cat named Oscar and he was
- 57:32really tough when he was a kitten, and Oscar is
- 57:36a tough name.
- 57:37Speaker 1: Oh, Oscar, Way, that's a tough name. So that's how
- 57:40he got named.
- 57:41Speaker 2: And then we had another cat named Gary, and he
- 57:47was always so serious when he was a kit and
- 57:50then we figured Gary is like a serious dude kind
- 57:53of a name, kind a serious dude kind of name,
- 57:57so he became Gary. That's pretty funny, by the way,
- 58:04having a cat named Gary is Yeah, that's pretty dang funny.
- 58:11Already four two five, four seven to seven. A ram
- 58:14My cat is named Stellar Rose. When she was about
- 58:17a week or too old, the people who gave me
- 58:20the cat asked me what her name was going to be,
- 58:24and I couldn't think of anything. But I had a
- 58:25few bottles of stellar Rose in the kitchen and that
- 58:30was the first thing that came out. I came up
- 58:33with a man. Were you on that stellar rose when.
- 58:36Speaker 1: You were thinking about that cat's name?
- 58:38Speaker 2: About your pets? How they get their names. I remember
- 58:41we had this when I lived on the reservation.
- 58:44Speaker 1: My mom let me have a hamster. I named him
- 58:45Herman the hamster. I have no idea why we had this.
- 58:50Speaker 2: Cat that we used to call ghost because it lived
- 58:53with us.
- 58:54Speaker 1: I think it lived with us.
- 58:56Speaker 2: But this cat lived with us. We call ghost because
- 59:00we never saw it. It would be like you'd catch
- 59:02it out of the corner of your eye running around
- 59:05because it only came in, only came in very rarely
- 59:08would come in.
- 59:09Speaker 1: But it lived.
- 59:09Speaker 2: Outside around the house, and so we'd see it. I
- 59:12think this cat lived for four hundred years, to be
- 59:14honest with you, because you just see glimpses of it,
- 59:16or you think you'd see glimpses of it. Now.
- 59:19Speaker 1: Yeah, we used to call her go.
- 59:20Speaker 5: Well.
- 59:20Speaker 2: We knew she was alive because she ate all the
- 59:22food we left out for at least they.
- 59:24Speaker 1: Think already four two seven seven. What did we got here?
- 59:30Speaker 2: A rome bro It's funny you bring that up, because

- 59:41was tied up to a water spicket and the water
- 59:44was just running very slow so he could have water
- 59:46to drink. But my dad fed him his lunch and
- 59:51united him, oh and untied him.
- 59:54Speaker 1: But the dog never left his side, so he brought
- 59:57him home.
- 59:58Speaker 2: We talked about that we were going to name him,
- 1:00:01and my dad said, we're gonna name him Arvin because
- 1:00:06that's where he found him.
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: But that's what I say.
