All right, welcome back to the third ever episode of the iced coffee hour. Today we have a guest here, Christine. You're the first guest on the podcast. I'm so honored. Wow. And to be able to ice coffee podcast. You've never heard of it. The name is the iced coffee hour.

I love that. Yeah, it's a little bit too late for iced coffee. Exactly. So Graham knows Christine. This is my first night ever actually meeting Christine. But they know each other through their work at the Oppenheim group together. Right. Which is really cool.

I just have to say, this is one of the nicest houses I've ever been in my entire life. He's just saying that. It's really not that nice. Oh, he's so sweet. It is incredible. Yeah, this is your, what do you call it? It's not a basement because it's on the ground level. This is my game room.

Game room, okay. Yeah, they have a ski ball table. They have one of those duck hunt things. And they also, I mean, this is on an air hockey table. So that's pretty. Priorities. This is the only house that, this is the only room in the house that's actually completed us our game room.

Yeah. I would hang out here. I mean, this is really where I would spend all of my time. I mean, we're in the theater a lot. Oh yeah, there's a movie theater like right behind. There's a full-on movie theater room. First off, I think it'd be good if we could just introduce you so people kind of get an idea of who you are. So you got your start obviously. It was, you were an actress, right? Yes, absolutely. So basically what happened with acting, I just got really tired of being pigeonholed in these roles I didn't want to do. Like, I was, you know, getting a hot girl number one, a hot girl number two.

And I was like, was that how they credited you? Are you serious? Was it actually? Yeah, I swear to God. Sometimes. So I was like, all right, I need something that's a little more stable

and I want to like be my own boss and work down hours. So that's kind of where real estate came into play because, you know, I was friends with Jason and I saw him doing so well. And I loved that he was doing his own thing and he was his own boss. So I was like, I want to be part of that. I want to do that.

So that's kind of when I gave up acting and started getting involved in real estate full-time. So that's the transition for me. Did you ever go to college? Because, you know, Graham was successful as a real estate agent, but he really didn't go to college. Did you study? I did not go to college.

I couldn't afford it at the time. I really wanted to go, but my family didn't have the funds. So I actually didn't go to college. But in hindsight, I'm glad that I didn't waste my time because I don't think I needed it, you know? Tell him that. Because you know what? I want Jack to be able to work with me full time.

And he's like, I'm going to school, Graham. I have to get a school. I have a class until 12. I'm come on, it's stupid. It's stupid. It's stupid. Well, I'm not recommending to drop out of school, obviously,

but I'm saying, you know, I think that, you know, this is America. And, you know, we can really, really dream and do anything. I don't think college is that important nowadays. You know, that's just my opinion. Okay, so your best piece of advice, would you say that I should drop out of college and do this thing with Graham full-time? Right? My advice is never to drop out of college.

Make the decision right now in whatever you say. Would you actually do that? You wouldn't do it, so you wouldn't do it anyway. No. I just wanted to put them unnecessary pressure on her to see what. I don't think you should drop out of school at all night, he means. No. Okay, all right, yeah.

You could tell them afterwards when they're not recorded, drop out of school. Did you ever work any, like, normal jobs? Because before I worked for Graham, I was working as a busser at a restaurant. And, I mean, for me, that was like, that was so miserable. I remember every single day on the job, I was just thinking, What can I do so I don't have to do this anymore? And that's actually, I tried so many different business ventures. And then finally through that, I, you know, I've been watching Graham's videos for a while.

I just finally decided to send out that email and try to contact him. Then I tried it again and again. And then that was why I actually started working for Graham was just because I was doing a job that I just every single second on that job. I was spent like thinking, what can I do so I don't have to do this morning? Did you work any? Of course I had many jobs. I didn't want to. I've been working since I was 15 years old.

my mom had a lot of health issues growing up so I needed to spend more time with her so I went to an accelerated school that was only four hours a day so my hours I usually went to school from like two to four, two to five, two to six so that I could be with her in the morning so my schedule was really crazy

and I started out working at Sonic and I would work sometimes like 6 a.m. to noon and then I would go to school after so I worked at Sonic, I worked at Taco Bell I bartended I worked at Costco. Wow. I had a bunch of really, really crazy jobs.

And this was in Texas, right? So you're hustler. Yeah. Totally. Nice. So I've had jobs all across the board and that's kind of why I see things differently. And that's really what has helped me kind of grow. What was your least favorite job?

My least favorite job was Taco Bell because they told me if I didn't take my acrylic nails off, they were going to fire me because it was a hazard for the food because it could like break off. So that was my least favorite job because they made me take off my acrylic nails and I was pissed about your nails You have these dangly things on them oh Can you show them to the yeah get a nice close-up of those can I like oh my god Yeah she's got some danglies on her nails. I love my nails I didn't even functional that it's not functioned it doesn't help you get caught It helps me a lot

No, but it just makes me feel really good. No, it's it makes it difficult to type you drag it drag it on things right? Yeah Yeah, it's not very functional So practical. Like, I'm already scared enough wearing a ring because sometimes I just jump up and touch things. I just like to. I did it on a door once and my ring got caught. I almost pulled my, yeah. Because I read an article on like Ripley's believe it or not when I was a kid about a soccer player.

Something that was jumping over a chain link fence literally ripped his finger off because he was wearing a ring. So, I mean, I've been scared ever since and it finally happened to me. And yeah. You're like the 1% so that's really rare. Horrified. Wow. Jesus. Speaking of rings, let's see that.

Show that one. What is this? What is this? Oh, wow. What? You got this beefed up, didn't you? This is not. Wow.

Show it. Here, show it to the game. Wait, wait. Don't tell Jack. Is it cool if Jack holds it? Yes. Okay, wait, wait, wait. Let me feel it first.

Let me, let me feel it first. I just want to film Jack's reaction. Wait, that's, I thought that was fake the whole time. Is that a diamond? So, so Jack, hold it. Okay, wait, wait, wait, wait. We've got to get your reaction on this, okay? Because I know.

Wait, guys. Oh, you know what? I can't. You might just have to get some B-roll. Yeah, get some B-roll so it's crazy. Wait, wait, wait, there's a hair on it. I think you saw it when it was just the, like, diamond. Okay.

Do you want to be in this as well? I think I want both of your reactions. Because you, you don't, I don't think you know either. No what? No what? Just hold it Come on in Come on in really quick

Hold that Just get right here But I want Jack to hold it Okay I want Jack to hold it When Christine does the reveal Because I think Jack's reaction Is gonna be the best

Okay Okay I love the cut on that Was that thing like On the Titanic or something I don't know It may as well have been So yeah

So guess how much you think that is How much I know how much the engagement ring is Oh wait Guess how much that would be So the cufflinks that your husband were during the wedding were like 50,000, right? 55. And they had diamonds on them, right?

Yeah. One and a half. You're going to guess that one and a million? Yeah. Oh. Well, no, but don't, but we want, okay. Okay. He goes, what?

That's so far fetched that, like, to influence Jack's decision. I'm thinking this has to be, it's like this or a Lamborghini, right? So like, I think this could be like $150, $175,000. Okay. You want to tell him? That's how much this ring was, actually. But this ring is definitely over a million dollars. Look at this.

Look at his face. I can't hold it. He's shaking. He's shaking. I can't hold it. Take it out of my hand. He's shaking. Really?

Oh my god, look at your But I just thought I was right Oh my You were definitely right But I don't wear this every day The only reason I'm wearing this is because I have an interview after this Okay, yeah, fair But I never wear this

This is like locked up in a safety deposit box I really don't wear that much Wow, I just want a Jack's reaction to that That's all Your reactions are the best Yeah, Jack's division Even pulling up to the house is whoa, where are we? I love that.

Did you even drive you through Beverly Hills? You love the Evian. Evian. Evian. Evian. Evian. Evian. Evian.

Jack's not going to be able to continue. Yeah. I feel like butterflies in my stomach right now. I feel like I'm not worried of the whole thing. He's got the buck. You know these rings right here? Okay, so, so, so, so, so Graham did, I'm sorry, give me, let me, give me a second because I'm still like,

That was actually, that shook me. Yeah. So Graham was guessing how much your clothing and your jewelry cost in the video for the second channel. And I want you to guess how much my jewelry is. Okay. Okay. So feel free to hold these pieces of jewelry. Guess what they are. Okay.

Okay. And hold them. Alright, so this is yellow gold. And this is how he's supposed to platinum. Let me guess. Let me guess too. I don't know. I just want to feel it.

I'm gonna let you do your thing. All right, I have a different answer. I'm gonna say you're wrong. Wait, well, I didn't look that close to that. Oh, I'll look close. Oh, look close. You wanna get some B-roll of them? Oh, yeah.

Really shine, you know, in the, yeah. You gotta, like, fast forward with this. Yeah, yeah. All right, well, I see a line in the middle now that I'm looking closer, which is made from like an improper cast. So I would actually... No, this still is yellow gold.

This one is not platinum, actually. This is like something... This is sterling silver. So you're ready for the big reveal? So I actually made both of these. And this one's 14-carat gold. Okay. And this one is silver bollian bar.

So it's like... I was going to say silver. Okay. All right. Yeah, silver and I was going to say gold-ed. You can call it improper cast if you want, you know? I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I didn't expect that you make your own rings on the side.

I don't really make my own reasons. I just decided to. But yeah, so we also did that thing where, so Graham was guessing the price of all of your clothes. I want you to guess the price of what Graham and I are wearing right now. All right. Yeah, you got to, but. So start off with our shirts.

Yeah. So I would say this is something like, this looks like Old Navy or Zara to me. Okay. This is probably 1599. Okay. And then I think you're wearing corduroy pants, probably from somewhere like,

these look a little like more expensive to me I think this is probably like a hundred dollar pair of jeans I would say okay okay and then Graham I think that's probably something like Zara as well

and then the jeans I'll see the jeans are probably like 100 a little more expensive yeah so this it's Brett's so And the jeans are Brett's, Brett Oppenheim.

So that changes things. So technically, they were free for me. They're free, but it's more excited than that. I would say this, like, $100 shirt for sure and like a $300 pair of jeans. I think like $500. $500. These are Prada. The Prada jeans that Brett gave me for free.

Yeah, and this, I don't know. I don't know who makes a shirt, but probably. All right. Well, wow. Yeah. Good for Graham. Thanks, Brett. So your guests are actually, they're, I mean, for the shirt's about a $60 shirt.

Okay. Pyagonia shirt. These pants are pagonia short. They're probably $80 or $7. I don't know. All right. I know women's clothes. Men's clothes is like so hard for me though. That's I agree. I wear my nicest clothing for the podcast. He did. He got dressed up today for this. I kid you not. Yeah, I kid you not. This is the nicest he's dressed in a very long time. Yeah. I'm honored. All righty, so on to the regular schedule programs. Have you ever been recognized like just from selling sunset?

definitely i mean i was at the gas station yesterday and people were like you pumped your own gas no no no i was getting a rental oh my god i was about to say i can't imagine you're kidding out with the nails and just you know like no the people were like Christine we love you you know and it's really sweet yeah that's cool that's really cool because i um i've always told graham like i was like man it's crazy that that graham gets recognized yeah of course he does and um i i've never been with him when he's been recognized until last week, it finally happened. I've brought it up to Graham several times.

Like, I can't wait for the time of you're like... Because we never go out. We're always at home. So that's really what it is. Yeah. It's so exciting for me. And yeah, we were in the car. Amazon presents Jeff versus Taco Truck Salsa. Whether it's Verde, Roja,

or the orange one. For Jeff, trying any salsa is like playing Russian roulette with a flame throw. Luckily, Jeff saved with Amazon and stocked up on antacids, ginger tea, and milk. Habaniero? More like habanier, yes. Save the everyday with Amazon.

I was driving, and we were just going into an intersection. It was late at night, coming back from a burger place. We come to a red light at an intersection. I come to a stop, and then I go, and as I'm going, like, it was a very, very quick thing. Very quick. As I'm going, someone that was standing on the corner, they were just like, Graham! And I look at it, and I was like, and Graham's like, I don't know who they were. Yeah, I don't know.

Which is crazy to me, but I'm still blown away at that. Because Graham was still, he's like sunk down in his seat. Oh yeah, when I'm in the car, I do full slouch mode. Like, you won't even see me. Like, this is, this is. No, Graham's literally like this in the car, like looking down at his phone. And somehow this, like, this lady still recognized Granish. You know, I believe it because actually I get a lot of my followers.

They're like, oh my God, you work with. Graham. Oh my God, I saw Graham in that episode. Oh, my God. You follow Graham. Your friends are Graham. And I'm like, yeah. So it's funny. I get a lot of people as well that are big fan of you. That's cool. I get a lot of people too. You should you collab with Christine. So we're finally doing it. I'm glad we're finally doing it and more to come. I'm really excited. Also, do you, from working as a real estate agent, do you have any crazy stories about open houses? Do you have any stories that really come to you? Yes, I do. Mary and I were doing an open house together and we locked and closed everything up.

And then the second we left, there was people that broke into the house and stole all of the alcohol in the house. And that's all they stole was alcohol. There was other valuables, but they just stole all the booze in the house. So very strange. But that's my only crazy open house story. I got a few of them. one well this is actually at the same house believe it or not so I'll try to keep this PG

one of my like within the first year some guy came in and it was a busy open house and got naked and got in the pool and refused to leave and so I was with my mentor at the time and he was the one who called the police and then the police came what was my husband doing at this property I don't know I told them to leave so that was one of them The other one was, it was actually my first ever open house, and I showed up not knowing, like, they had no instructions of really what to do, but just like, here's the house, here's the set of sheets, like the owner's going to be home. So I get there a little bit early, like 30 minutes early, and the house is a mess. And the guy had a massive party the night before, and I got in, and I was just like brand new, not knowing what I was doing. And there were people like sleeping on the couch.

It was like 12.30, I think. People sleeping on the couch. The owner was still in bed. There were beer cans everywhere. The whole thing was a mess. I mean they had a massive party then I before And I didn't know what I was doing So that was that was totally on into you being real estate This is one of my first open houses Jeez, yeah, that's crazy I'm sure there's others that I just not thinking about I know right

How much in alcohol do you think they stole? Was it like hundreds of dollars? It wasn't a lot Yeah, my other story was just a little stupid thing, but I had a seller Who was at the open house and there was this celebrity liberty that came in. I had no idea who it was. Sophia Loren, do you know who that is? Of course, yeah. I don't know. Do you know who that is? You don't know? Yeah, Sophia. I don't know. So anyway, she walks in the open house and I ask her to sign in. Burnett? What? Was she Burnett, right?

Yeah. I can't remember. I mean, I think so. She's an older lady. No. Yeah. But anyway, so she walks in the open house and like, hey, do you mind signing in? And the owner was furious. You don't ask her to sign in. We know who she is. You do not and got really upset at me. And I was just got to sign in. Because I was told what to do. Like, get everyone to sign in. She's like, no, she doesn't need to sign in. But anyway, ended up calling it my boss that I was asking a celebrity to sign in. And I should, like, I shouldn't be asking something like that. Like, I don't know. Yeah, that's funny. I feel like they would want to be, I don't know.

I don't know who Sophia Lorenna is. But some, some actress. I have, I have one crazy work story. This is not from my work with Graham, but this is from my work at a restaurant. Better not be. So I was, yeah, so I was a busser right. So I would get the plates and I would clear off the food and give it to the dishwasher. Sometimes there's perfectly good food that people don't eat all the way. And I must admit on occasion.

So that, so on occasion. You see fish and chips. They eat two of them. They leave one. It looks untouched. I've done that. But like, you don't know if someone like was like put it in their mouth and then they didn't want it and spin it out.

You'll lose it. That's not close to the crazy mouth. That's like, I did that. every shift, right? Like, I would eat that. Like, no problem. One time, there was a chicken saute, and it was like skewers with little pieces of chicken on it, and it had like, you know, it's glazed over because they like cook it or whatever. I don't know how they do it. And it was set perfectly on the bus tray. And I'm like, oh, okay, chicken saute. Yeah, sure, I'll eat some. So I grab it and I take a bite, and then a guy walks back and there's like one

empty skewer. And the guy sees, so it's the expediter, the person who took out the food. He sees it and he was like, oh my God, who ate the chicken saute? Who ate the chicken saute and I was like oh my he's gonna serve this still he hadn't yeah so I was like I'm in really really deep trouble and then he goes oh no and I was like what what happened what happened the chicken saute and he was like oh so so I was taking it out to to a table on the outer deck and someone in that parking structure that's above the restaurant like hawked a lugie oh my god off the parking structure wow and it landed right on the chicken sautees that's a really good ain't I cleaned

these chicken saute. Like, I, like, ate, like, two skewers. And apparently, just a random person's lugie hawked off the parking structure perfectly on the chicken sautees. And he said, like, to the customer, he's like, did you see that? And the customer's like, yeah, and he just brought it back. And I was like, oh, that's so terrible. That's, that sucks that someone ate these chicken sautees. Like, I feel sorry for that person. I hoped you really learned your lesson here. And no one in that restaurant knows it was me. Yeah, no one knew it was me. But did you die? No, I didn't die, but I felt sick to my stuff. make for like three hours after that.

Oh, wow. Yeah. Well, I've eaten food off other people's plates before. I think we do that all the time. That's normal. Just not eating their, you know, spit. Right. That part.

Yeah. Yeah. So, uh, our... It used to be a fun game, actually. This was, I, you, you don't know. In high school, uh, my friends would dare me to go up to, like, random tables and say, would you, are you going to finish that? But you do that in an everyday life. I do that now.

But, uh... But, uh, but, uh, and every now and then people would give me food. That's not bad. I'm like, are you going to finish that? I mean, I get it because it's like, it's just getting wasted anyway. It's just going to be. It's just going to, yeah. Can you shower a seat?

Exactly. I totally get that. Like, I order stuff and then I feel bad. I don't finish at all. I'm like, I wish I could give this to someone. Right. No. I have a friend.

He had a really bad habit. We'd go into restaurants. He was really frugal than you. He wouldn't eat out because he was too scared to spend any money on it. That used to be me. More frugal than the woman that turns their watering heater off, by the way. Oh, yeah. That was a funny one.

The millionaire woman, she would turn off the water heater. Yeah, yeah, yeah. To save on a gas. But he would go into these restaurants with us. We'd all order food, and he would ask the person working at the register. He would ask them for garbage food. Quote-unquote, do you guys have any, like, garbage food that you guys are going to, like, throw away, you know, just like, give it to me or whatever? He got it probably, like, 40 to 50% of the time.

Wow. Ask, and you shall be able to say. He would ask, he'd call it garbage food. Food that he is willing to put into his system. He would literally refer as garbage food. Wow. Give me ideas. Yeah.

This is a good second. channel stuff right there. Okay. I like that. So, um, so where did you meet Grams or when did you meet him? Gramps. Where'd you meet your grandpa? No, where'd you meet Grant? And, uh, what was your first impression of him? Um, so obviously, I think probably the first time we met was at the office, I think. And, um, my first impression was, I think we went to the place across the street, all of us together as a group. Which place you got this street? Um, I want to say it was like, BB, it was before it was Beebe. or La Petit, Petit, maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I just remember that you took everyone's scraps home. He's like, can I get a box? Can I get a box? And I was like, actually, I kind of love that because otherwise it's going to be wasted

and I was like, damn, I have mad respect for this guy. Like, I loved it. But it's, you know, it's so balzy and I love that about you because I'm balzy as hell, you know? People would always ask me how do you get your food budget so low?

And it was from doing stuff like that. But I get it because there's so much waste. I mean, good. So you never lost the thing you did in school. You'd still ask people for their scraps. Yeah. That's crazy. You're not strangers.

I mean, this is like, you know. Yeah, of course. I thought it was great. Yeah, I would take everything. Like the lobes for bread. I would be sitting at the office like 8, 9 p.m. And I'd have this huge amount of good food. Of course.

From like eight people at all. It's like your banquet. You have like a potluck. It's like a box worth of food that I got to eat. for dinner. More than 40 probably. Easy. Yeah.

For all the different little bits. And Jason, he's terrible at this. He'll order a whole bunch of stuff. And just waste it. And then the rest of it, eh. And so I would sit like the, you know, like the, you know,

like I felt like a vulture. I don't blame you. It's like patiently waiting for him to leave. I don't blame you. I know Jason so much for that. Smart of it, yeah. That's awesome. So you thought he was awesome.

Like you thought it was really cool. I loved it because I thought it was so baldy. I was like, I really love this guy's vibe. I dig it. That's cool. Yeah. So what were your thoughts when Grand was... Grain?

Grain? Graeme? What were your thoughts on Graham? Like, changing from spending a lot of time, you know, being a real estate agent to now pursuing, you know, spending much more of his time being a YouTuber. What did you think about that? I think it's great. And I love what you do. I love that, you know, you own a duplex.

You live in the bottom. You rent at the top. You're basically living for free. I love that you were talking about your portfolio and various things that you're doing in stock market. I think that's great. I think that people really value you in your opinion. So I love that you're spending more time on YouTube and getting this stuff out to people. And then as you're doing that, you know, you can probably think of ideas along the way and stuff you want to do.

And, you know, so I think it's really inspiring. I think it's good. And I'm happy you've made the transition. Thanks. You've got to remind everyone to smash the like button. Don't forget to smash the like button. Do you ever watch his videos, and obviously you're now aware, you are aware of his frugal mentality. What do you think about his frugality?

Like, do you fully ship it? Do you think sometimes it's like a little overboard? What do you think about it? You know, yes, I've probably seen all your videos, big fan, actually. And I am a big supporter of anyone doing something to an extreme. So I don't think he's crazy at all. Like, I think it's really cool what he's doing because, you know, I'm a big fan of people that are extremists and you're an extremist in a great way. So, huge supporter, major props to you.

You're a bit of an extremist in the opposite. Absolutely. We're very opposite. That's why I can't wait for that vlog day in the life and we're going to switch. That would be. I would love to do that. But do you want my actual day in the life? Like a real, because it's not exciting.

Well, I mean, no. Well, obviously like, you know, amp it up, you know, because I just watch it. TV all day, so, you know. Weekends with Grandf are crazy, guys. Yeah, I mean, it's pretty tame. It's pretty tame, so, yeah. Yeah, we'll get McDonald's. Comment if you guys want to see that.

All right. Let me not tell you, boy, we'll keep it first. Yeah. But one question, I've noticed a lot of the people that work at the Oppenheim Group, they're really, really good looking people. Thank you. So, except for one, of course. No, I'm kidding.

Do you need to be really attractive to be a real estate agent? Because everyone is absolutely beautiful. Like, how important is it to be attractive? It's not important at all. It's insanely. Now, honestly, if anything, it's really detrimental because it's really, really hard for me for people to take me seriously because they look at me, you know,

and sometimes they won't give me the time of the day because they're like, there's no way she's smart, there's no way she knows anything. So if anything, it's actually, it works the opposite for me. But it just so happens that everyone is very good looking. Does it make the job easier? Not really. Does it make it harder to vet clients?

Absolutely. I think it does. Yeah. I think it can get your foot in the door for way more prospects. But because you have so many more prospects, it's weeding through all of them. It becomes a really difficult part. Yeah, I agree.

I would definitely agree with that. Because, yeah, I mean, I've seen some of the guys that come in. You know, I'm not going to go. Like what, Graham? I've seen the guys to come in. I mean, you know, how many times we went at the office where guys come in the door. And they're like, hello, hey, what's going on here? You know, we're like, what?

I mean, he's seen it many times. Guys just walk in there and they're like, oh, what do you guys do in here? Yeah, they do. It's like, it's, how to hit on you or to work there? No, to hit on us. Oh, I think it was to work there. But they go in with the guys of buying a house. Yeah.

They're like, oh. What is this place? What is this place? They get that one of the furniture. And then they walk over to one of the girls sitting at the desks. It's like, you know, I'm looking to buy a, uh, four to six million dollar and they always say pocket listings yeah pocket listing what's a pocket listing it means something that doesn't exist because it's true it's something it's off market

it's off market so it's got to be off market which means nothing on the market satisfies it's got to be off the market you know four to six what area doesn't matter by the way pocket listing is just keyword for unrealistic buyer yeah it really it really is but anyway what they do is maybe you could send me some listings uh you know what's what's your number and then then decide and then you know what's your know okay classic classic yeah maybe we should meet up and discuss oh yes let's discuss this over lunch yeah do you get a lot of people that like try to go

inside of the Oppenheim group now since since it has like a Netflix show yeah we had to get locks on the door so how do you get you remember oh yeah that's right we do anyone used to be able to just open up which is exactly what do clients like do people like walk by and like eyeball you guys we're filming and they look all the time they're like it's wild. That's really an odd experience. Right. I mean it's a real working office, but I always used to stay late and work late and then I couldn't work at my desk anymore because

what would happen is so many people would come by and then put your face up against the glass and then all of a sudden I'd be working there and they would just so much of people looking at it and could do it. So I had to move upstairs and hide behind like one of the tables upstairs. Wow. So people wouldn't see. Wow. Yeah. Yeah that's cool. That's really, really Interesting. So do clients even go inside? Oh, yeah. So they still go inside.

You just have to get the door open for you from... Right. There's a buzzer and you can just buzz the door. Do you think that, like, at a certain point, you guys would just, like, move off of such a busy street? I mean, I think Jason loves, you know, I think he loves the Sunsides Trip and loves that location. Yeah.

It's really one of the best locations. It's a cool location, yeah. I can't see him ever moving from that location. Okay. If anything, I think he would open up another office and maybe go in between. Right. some point, but that's about it.

Okay. Let's talk about the different styles of real estate agents, because I know Graham has a really laid-back style, and he never really pushes, like, his clients to, like, buy the house or anything. He's really relaxed, and that's why they trust him a lot. What's different between your style and his style, if you don't have that style? My style is actually very similar to you. I'm very casual with my clients as well.

I am not pushy. I do not, you know, if they're not calling me, I'm not, like, you know, ring, ring, ring. And I know a lot of agents that are really obnoxious and turned off when people act that way. So I try to do my best to be like a really casual, cool, laid back friend more than anything, but still listen to them and value their opinion without being over pushy because there's nothing worse than like salesman. You know, salesy, salesy, salesy, salesy. So I try to be really like cool. Yeah.

One question I've always had for people that like are very wealthy. I can't ask this for Graham. But do you like when you're out, do you ever like, think like you're driving this is probably a stupid question but you're driving and you're like oh I want to get some food and you're like six minutes away from your home you're like well I can save you know eight dollars or ten dollars if I just go home like does does buying food ever concerning because like I've just wondered for wealthy people like what's ten dollars like you know what even when I was really poor I I would always like I would always splurge so if I wanted like

a nice meal I would just like put it on my credit card so I've always actually been that way because I've always loved, like, nice food. So, um, the answer to the question would be, like, no. But even when I was, like, really poor, I was still like, oh, I'll just put it on my credit card, whatever. If I wanted it, I'll eat it, you know? Kind of thing. Do you sweat, like, going out to lunch sometimes?

Like, you think, like, oh. I used to. For me, it used to be a lot worse. Now it's definitely eased up. Drop in, like, $15, you know? Yeah, now I could drop $15 without worrying about it. But, yeah, like, two, three years ago, $15, I'd just rather save it, always. Because I went to a ramen, wait no, ramen, I went to a Thai place and I got fah.

And it was like $25. Okay, that's crazy. Here's the thing, right? I go in, I'm going to get the combination fah and it's going to cost $16. Then the person I'm going with, he's all, you know, we should get some spring rolls. And I was like, hmm, you know, like the combination's already enough, but I'm not going to say no. And he's like, we should split it. And I'm like, okay, spring was like $9.

So it brought me up from like, you know, a $16 meal plus, you know, tip and tax. to now like a $25 meal. I was sweating it a little bit, but I have to learn, you know, just drop it after it's already done. But you know, those are, those habits will never change because I still think about that as well. Like I get a salad sometimes and it's $22.

I actually had a conversation the other day with DeVina and I called her and I was like, do you know how much this orange juice is Air One? I was like, this is $15. You guys do a reaction video on it's Air One. Air One. And I was just like, this is wild. So I still react the same way that you do to certain things because I know it's not normal to pay $15 for orange juice.

That's insane. We $15 for orange juice? Yes. Arawan is like the Rodeo Drive. What's Rodeo Drive? Exactly. What is it? No.

You're kidding me. Is he actually kidding? No, he's not kidding. I don't know of Rodeo Drive. You've never heard of Rodeo Drive. I've never heard of it. Rodeo Drive. Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive.

Oh. Wait, where does he live? Ventura well now now he's it's a street it's like I've never heard of rodeo drive it's like we're all this is it's like never having like what's Paris like I know what do you mean okay guys let me say okay if you if you want a comment that you don't know what Rodeo drive is to make me feel better please do so I I didn't I don't know it's a street how I thought I know route 66 it's probably that's good enough famous streets in the world next to Rout 66 for sure I don't drive

there. I know. People know of Rodeo Drive. It's like the biggest shopping district Mecca. It has a shopping? I thought it was residential. No. Well, there is a residential. Based on how you said, I just thought it would be mansions, but it's a shopping center. But you drive further down and Rodeo

Drive is a big shopping center. It's like every high end luxury brand you can think of is on Rodeo Drive. Like they have to be on Rodeo Drive to have a statement. Those are their stores. Like they want to have a presence on that street. We got to drive through there sometime or something. Yeah. We were driving through Beverly Hills today. I've only done that like maybe once or twice. It was crazy for me. Like I was just like every house that we saw like my jaw just dropped like one inch low. I just see Jack's reactions. I used too. He's got the best reaction. Yeah, really. It really does. I'm still shucking up from your like I can't stop thinking of it. I can't stop thinking about Evian water. How did you say it? I said Evian. I thought you were joking. I thought you were joking. I thought you were joking. No, I'm serious. I've never drank it before.

I drink Arrowhead and Nestle. Yeah, Desaun. Yeah, I don't even drink DeSani. Isn't that a nice one? No. I do like to Sons. Anyways. All right, well, Avion water.

Okay. Yeah, all right, we gotta go to Rodeo Drive sometime, because I would love to see it. You'd love to see it. So what's like the average cost of your lunch? Because every day for lunch, even lunch and dinner, sometimes I'll do like peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch and dinner.

Yeah. Yeah, if I get really, you just like, desperate, you know? Sometimes I'll just eat like two or three in a day. I mean, the thing is, is like, I, I obviously, I still do not like spending a lot of money on food. It's still like freaks me out. Like, a $22 salad is just not right. Like, it's not okay. Um, I would say the average cost though would be like anywhere, probably $15, I would say, anything over $15 on one single item. I'm just like, that's not normal, you know? But I do cook a lot at home. So I've a lot of groceries.

That's fair. Yeah. Graham, you do the healthy choices. Not as much. Not as much. Got a girlfriend now that cooks. Ah, right. Like I had leftovers today.

That's smart. That's smart. I got to get more of those. And then oatmeal. I love all. So I've gone from the, what are they called? What are they called? The cliff bars.

Quaker? Clifars. 99 cents, a cliff bar, which is good. That's costly. But here's the thing. Now oatmeal. is I found more filling just as good, just oatmeal and honey. What kind of oatmeal? Quaker.

Quaker's not bad. Same thing, and you get a whole thing for like three box, and that's better. Smart. It's really smart. Do you use milk or water? Milk. I used to use water. It doesn't taste the same. I only use, I've never heard of milk.

In, in, oatmeal. I've never heard of it in oatmeal. I didn't know that was a thing. It's so much better. Well, thank you. I don't know. I was joking with anymore. Like, half the thing is like,

Yeah. Yeah, that's all the joke, guys. Totally know what Rodeo drivers. An Evian, Evian war. I know it at always, but I'm just joking. All right. Let's see here. What's the biggest waste of money that you've ever done?

Like, what's something you spent money on? You're just like, ah, I shouldn't have done that. Advice. Or hiring people. Really? Yeah. What sort of advice? Well, you know, I was talking to a marketing company about a new business venture that I'm

and you know they map out you know the inspiration and do mood boards and all this crap and you know their budget for helping me build out my brand and vision was a hundred thousand dollars this does not include who did you who is that this is a big marketing like it like a legitimate yeah seriously a hundred thousand dollars no no sorry are you guys you swear with jack will be no it's good if you like i can no i don't I recognized it was a complete and total waste of money and just outrageous. But you didn't actually spend it? No, of course not.

As soon as they told me that, I was like, you've got to be kidding. What have you spent money on? I mean, that's absurd, but what have you spent money on that year, you regretted it? That I regret, oh, sorry, then I regretted. Um, I would just say hiring crappy people. Hmm. Yeah. Graham?

Anything? Uh, I spent money in that I, Chipotle a burrito a couple weeks ago. Um geez I would say I hired a really bad landscaper years ago and I had to Oh yeah

The old job Can you think Oh you know what Contractor That was my second mom Yeah We had a really Much money in a contractor

And maybe some furniture Paid parking too Paid parking Don't get Graham started on paid parking I do like that one day like $5 parking. Yeah. Or any time that I go gambling,

which I love, but I lose money, then I'm so mad at myself. I've not regretted any amount of gambling, by the way, I know. Good for you. I only gamble with a few hundred bucks,

so if I lose it, it's, I'm upset for the day. I'm upset if I lose like $100, I'm like, yeah. That sucks. Yeah.

Yeah, I lost. When I turned 21, I went gambling with my dad. Las Vegas, I lost like $500. Gambling. It was bad. Like, I caught myself at $300. I was like,

I was like, I'm not going to lose more than 300. I lost the internet. I was like, well, I still have one day. That was only the first day. The first part is I have friends that'll like have a limit, like, 500 bucks, and they lose it. And they're like, I'm going to go get another 500 bucks. That's where. But here's the thing, but I see them win it all back and weigh more.

And I'm like, ah, man, if they're doing it. Really? But then if I do it, I just lose more. No, I know. Same. You got to be able to, like, draw the line. That's a hard thing to stop. It was my 21st birthday, though, so I feel like it's pretty excusable.

Yeah. I mean, I lost pocket. I had pocket aces and I lost against pocket nines. If you know, like, poker. You're playing poker? That's all I wanted to play. Oh, I think you just played blackjack or something. No, I think blackjack's too luck-oriented.

I don't know anything about poker. Maybe I should play more blackjack for using how much money in poker. It's obvious you don't have talents. Yeah, exactly. Luck is probably your best best. Where do you think in life you are frugal? Like, where do you really try? tried not to spend so much money.

When we are with vendors, a lot of vendors when we're doing things and hiring people, I'm like, well, I know that that's really not how much it costs. You know, when I'm doing things like breaking down the cost ratio to how much I actually know something is, that's where it gets, like, annoying for me. For example, stuff like diamonds, you know, like I'm just giving you one example. like cardiac, I would never in a million years buy anything from, well, I have a cardiac bracelet, but other than that, fine. It's stuff where I, you know, know what the value is and see what people are charging

for it, and that really pisses me off. So, like, for example, in my wedding, we had a vendor that was charging three times the markup on the snow that we had falling because they knew it was winter and everyone wanted the snow. So, you know, I was like, this is not okay. Like, I'm really good actually at, like, cutting corners and saving. So that was one thing that pissed me out from people overcharged because they know that they can. And so I would say stuff like that.

How much does it cost for fake snow? Fake snow is a lot. I think it was like probably somewhere around 50 grand for the night. 50? Yeah. Oh my God. Are you kidding me? Yeah.

This is a wedding. Mm-hmm. Get, go buy pillows at Sears. Cut them open. Get some industrial fans. Happy Grand I would just rather not have to make snow. I wanted to snow. I mean, that was something like I was really...

What's it made out of like diamond dust? No, no, it's like... It's like... It's really like a, like a... It's so... It's kind of wet a little bit. It's soap. It's so.

It's so. It's like... It's like, it's like in their hair and they were just like... Yeah, but it's like the thing... It's not the actual snow itself was, but like the, you know, the rigging and the machines, yeah. And the whole night yards. Yeah.

Because they had to have a crew there, like monitoring the fake, snow. Some dude is in the back just pressing a button. If I was at that wedding and I knew that snow cost of $50,000, I would just be grabbing as much as I can and just stuffing it away. It's just soap. It's soapy water is really what it is.

Like imagine going and you get a whole bunch of like, you know, you take a bubble bath and you get that's really what it is. I mean, blowing that everywhere. That's really all it is. Yeah. So you stuff like that drives me crazy. I'm like, why am I spending money on this? Yeah.

Jeez. So we just have a few just gag questions that we like to ask on the show. Would you rather fight one horse-sized duck or a hundred duck-sized horses? 100 duck-sized horses. Everyone says that. I mean, it's an easy. I mean, I'm like a horse as far as though. I mean, horses are probably more dangerous than ducks, given, like, if they are the same size, they are probably more dangerous.

But I feel like ducks have, like, a really dangerous beak, and if it was a huge size, it would be really lethal. Oh, yeah. The lethal beak. Yeah. Okay, well, how many do you think you could take then? All at once of the horses? Yeah, like they're surrounding you. I mean, like 10 max, no more than 10.

Oh, you can take more than that. So you're done either way. Yeah. With a duck-sized horse, you're done. You have a hundred. A hundred-sized horses. Okay. So like horses that are this tall.

Oh, how many of those can you take? Oh, yeah, duh. I mean, a lot, like 500. 500? Like it's a small. I didn't even say, I think I said I could take 300. You do realize this whole room could probably- They're small, right?

They're like yay high. Yeah. Yeah, you can kick them, not until they're nipping at your calves and stuff. I think 500 is a good number. Anyone have 100 duck-sized horses, send them this way, let us know. We'll put them in a cage, we'll cage fight. Yeah. Let's see here.

Second question. Is mayo an ins... Wait, no, I'm not going to ask the question. I'll ask that question. Is mayonnaise an instrument? Is mayonnaise an instrument? You have to think about all cultures. I don't get it.

I mean, I know what the... What's... Is mayonnaise? Like, mayonnaise. Is it an instrument? Like... Yes. No, I don't think so.

Alright. She doesn't think so. That's a dangerous answer. What? You can explain that to me? I don't get it. It was, yeah, it was from the Spongewob episode. Oh, okay. He's like, is mayonnaise an instrument? Yeah. And it's good, it was like, no, Patrick, mayonnaise is not an issue.

But then some guy on YouTube made mayonnaise an instrument and proved. I haven't seen that. Yeah. Huh. All right. The final question for today's podcast. Does pineapple have a place on pizza? Absolutely.

Graham? Yeah. No. Oh my God. What about ranch, though? Yes. Yeah. Thank you.

Yeah, yeah, of course. Of course, ranch. Yeah. Ranch is delicious. Pineapple is just, no. What's ranch? Ranch is it? Is ranching?

Do you want to, do you have anything? Here, come in. Come in. Okay. Do you have anything to say? Is it on the mayonnaise or the pineapple or what order? Anything, anything you'd like to comment on? Does pineapple have a place on pizza?

Oh yeah, definitely. Yeah. Have you heard of Rodeo Drive? Yes, but not until a few years ago. No. But, of course, she heard of it, though. See? See?

I didn't know like two years ago. See, guys. Jack and I grew up very close to each other. We did. I guess you guys don't go to I always knew about I was a kid, living in another state. Yeah, I always knew like Reda Drive.

It's in all the movies. It was like iconic. Yeah. I don't watch movies. That's probably why. I literally have grew up not watching any. Okay, that's probably it.

That's the problem. I didn't have that. I don't know what was wrong. You know what that would be a funny video taking you to Rodo Drive and just seeing it. And just being baffled. Just look at the price tags of everything.

Oh my gosh. I think I would probably fall apart. I wouldn't be able to be able to. looking into Gucci stores and then just like guess how much is this. Yeah. And you look at the price. Well, I've done that before. You're like, wow, that's so stupid.

You know, why would you... Yeah, I thought the canvas shoes were cheaper, like the Gucci canvas. I thought they were like 400 bucks. They're now like seven, eight hundred dollars for a pair of shoes. I know. Yeah. That's crazy. We've turned to go into Gucci and they're like, oh, this is out of your price

range. You're not going to spend this. No, they haven't. When? No. I thought it would be funny. I thought that was a good joke. Oh.

They do, and this is a Google guy. That doesn't want. Oh, no, that guy. He's not going to buy anything, yeah. Oh, my God. All right, so. He's back to guess the price of our shoes again. Oh, it's reacting to our prices again. To end it off.

It's ended up. One thing I forgot to say. Oh, you know what? It's going to stop recording in a second. Should we just- I can click it? Oh, yeah, no, we're good. We're good. It's a six minute clip, so we can edit it.

Okay, yeah. Favorite Taco Bell item, go. Uh, chili, but beef, chilepa spring. Go. Oh, favorite Taco Bell, what? Item. Oh, crunchy tacos. It's a classic.

I like the loaded grillers. Of course, those are like a dollar each. A loaded nacho grillers. Yeah, yeah. It's 99. They're not even 10 cents or something like that. I'm a big talk about fan.

I like the, the Supreme Gordita. Gordita Supreme, they used to have like a $2 meal with a drink and a chips. Good deal. All righty. So you go ahead and sign us off.
