Hi guys, welcome back to the 70th ever episode of the Ice Coffee Hour.
My name is Savannah Smiles.
And so far, the podcast is made.
You did not give me that information.
I don't know what you were expecting me to do.
I'm assuming it's probably made around $105,000.
So thank you guys for tuning in.
Thank you for appearing on the podcast, Macy.
Yeah, of course.
What else am I going to do?
Work?
Well, I think Jack has something to tell you.
And that's, we wanted to film it.
You guys are pregnant?
How did you know?
No, I'm not, we're not pregnant.
Jack is pregnant.
Yeah.
No, Nancy.
I own a house now.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
So I will officially be moving out of this residence as soon as possible.
Congratulations.
Do you have a move out date in mind?
Well, ideally it would have been Tuesday.
But we're pushing it back a little bit.
due to some technical difficulties.
And hopefully maybe Monday or something.
So you're not going to be around for the holidays.
I thought we were going to have a big old family holiday,
but we're going to be empty nesting this Christmas.
I'm sad.
I don't want you to leave.
Yeah, I know.
You were trying to convince me to back out of the deal like two days before closing.
I told Jack that he doesn't need his deposit.
It's only 3%.
He doesn't have to close.
It's sad.
I was telling even Macy this.
I do feel sad about that.
It's just like you're like a staple part of the household.
Do you like are weird?
I don't want to say weird, but you know that like awkward teenage son that just stays in his room.
What's the different?
I'm sorry.
Okay.
So let's the difference between awkward teenage son and weird.
Well, weird, but I just think awkward is a little different because like you, I mean,
I hear the dating escapades.
Whoa.
Some of it.
Whoa.
We're starting this off a little aggressive now, aren't we?
No, no, no.
bits is like you're like our awkward teenage son that lives in there like you come out of your
room you got your headphones on your hood up you're like and you're like yeah that's true i never
thought about that you are a bit like that just to close your room and you're just we haven't seen you
you come out just to eat in the kitchen and you go right back into the room all right all right i'll
take that as an endearing thing to say it's great thank you guys thank you very much anyways i'm
moving out i'm excited to have my own place uh although i am so excited i'm so excited
I am, honestly, I'm a little upset that I'm leaving you guys.
This has been a great time living with you guys for such a long time.
You don't have to leave, though.
That's the thing.
You can rent out your house.
You can rent out every single room.
Yeah, why don't you rent out every room except for one?
But just stay here.
And then if you need one room there, just go there.
I'm sorry, guys, but I think it's time the, you guys are empty nesters.
Right?
Isn't that a saying empty nesters?
I just, at least, I guess, you're preparing Graham and I for this probably about 25
five years before we'd actually become empty nesters.
Maybe Alex moves in.
Maybe just get Alex.
I'm sorry,
Alex is already renting a room, guys.
That is totally off limits.
Yes, we have that agreement.
How about this?
Why don't you show us the house?
Tell us how many offers you've made so far leading up until this point.
Okay, so I've been pre-qualified for probably four or five months.
And I've probably made seven, seven offers, six, or probably five to eight offers.
So quite a few offers.
I've learned a lot.
Thank you, Graham.
You've helped me out a lot.
lot through this process. And it's crazy out there. It is like, it's like warfare, honestly,
in the housing market for a buyer. And why didn't the other offers get accepted? Well, I made a few
mistakes, a few novice mistakes in the beginning. That's one reason why they didn't get accepted.
Explain these novice mistakes for people that don't know. I feel bad because I feel like you're
roasting Jack a little bit right now because I could see with, I've heard about a lot of these
mistakes, I would have probably made him too, Jack, to be fair.
Like some of these things, I listen to him, like, no, that wasn't smart, but I probably
would have accidentally done the same thing, too.
Well, of course you would have.
I think anyone would have if they didn't know what they were doing.
So Jack calls a seller.
The seller directly.
He wants to offer $560 for the property.
And in the span of a minute, Jack goes up from $560 to like $5.95.
And the seller doesn't even take the offer.
He then shops it around.
And then gets back to Jack.
saying, would you go even higher?
And I said, yeah, I'll go higher.
Shops that around.
I'm telling Jackson's time.
Don't say me.
So basically the seller had no intention of closing for a week out into the future.
And I got the highest offer on the house with still a week left for the seller to make their decision.
And they basically just went around to other people.
I entrusted this seller.
Big mistake.
And basically they just went to other people saying, hey, this guy offered this much.
Can you beat that?
Yeah.
No, I could, I would have probably done the same thing on the first one.
but I don't think the second time they would have called,
I would have offered anything higher.
But I can see definitely on that first one.
I think it's understandable,
especially when you're really excited about getting a place and stuff.
Not all of us worked in real estate gram.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, you're a guru.
You're a real estate genius, okay?
Not all of us are genius.
Anyways, another house I lost out on,
it was initially listed at like 460, 460, I think.
And it's funny because four or five months ago when I first started looking,
I was looking in that price range, like 460.
450.
And Graham said I should try to go under 400.
Unfortunately, well, I don't know if this is unfortunately,
but the house I bought was listed at 600,000.
Wow.
So, I mean, obviously, it is a little bit of a nicer house,
but not $140,000 nicer than the initial house,
460 that I put an offer on.
It just goes to show how insane the market is.
You wrote an offer 460, but that didn't get accepted.
So what's the 460?
Well, actually, I'm sorry.
What did that sell for?
It was listed at 440.
It sold at 440.
65. Okay. And here's another issue that I ran into if you guys are trying to buy a home.
I offered, so actually the property was listed at noon. I saw it at one and I submitted an offer
I think at asking at 5 p.m. And that night they got, I want to say 10 offers. It was between like
8 and 12 offers all over asking. So I was pretty much screwed. Fortunately, I came back. I
came back with an extremely aggressive offer and then they counteroffered to like a few people that
were still in the running and a multiple counter correct what multiple counter offer do they multiple yeah
yeah yeah exactly so and and i accepted their counter offer thinking okay i'm going to get the
and i'm going to get the property uh oddly enough their counter offer was something called a best
and final which i was not aware of and it wasn't really disclosed to be by by my agent unfortunately
and I lost that on the property
because all I did was accept their counteroffer.
This is the one that I reamed on Jack
after this one.
This is half your fault, half the other one.
You know what? It's 80-20.
It's 80% their fault.
But yeah, best and final, you never accept it
because everyone pays more than that.
Right, right.
The only reason why I would know not to do that
is because when you were getting the LA place,
you were trying to avoid that
and you explain how the whole multiple counter-offer thing
and the best and final work.
You're like, I'm trying to avoid this.
Now, if it was just a normal counter offer, and I would have accepted it, we could have been in contract.
Right.
But this was like to multiple different people.
And I just accepted their offer, which was probably, I think I offered 460 and then their counter was 462.
And I was like, okay, 462, sure, I'll do it.
And then it sold at 465 because someone offered that.
So it was just $3,000.
And now that house is probably worth $520,000, honestly.
Right.
Well, let me ask you this question.
Do you like your current place more than that?
that place.
Yeah,
I like,
I like it more,
but I do think this house
would have been a great investment.
And for me right now,
I'm 22.
I don't think it really matters
for me to have a place.
Like,
I really love the 20th place I'm in.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah,
I am 23.
Yeah.
Sorry,
my birthday was like three days,
two days ago.
So I'm just,
I guess I'm not used to saying that.
But yeah.
But I mean,
you're going to want to find a place
so you're going to like for the next probably three plus years.
I would imagine.
I wouldn't think it's going to be a place
that you're going to be in for like 10 or more.
But you're going to want to find a place.
I don't see you getting a place and then wanting to move like six months a year later.
Right.
I don't like it enough to stay there for a few years.
Right.
Well, we'll get on to that in a little bit.
But the lesson to learn here is if it's a multiple counteroffer, that means you have to go above the counteroffer if you really want the deal, at least in this market.
And if it's just a counteroffer, then you can accept and you can be in contract.
But that should all be disclosed to you by your agent.
Yeah.
If I were your agent, I would tell you, never pay ask price.
Always lowball the property.
And that way you don't have to leave.
See?
That's, hey, that's genius.
You never have to move out.
So anyways, those were a couple of bad experiences.
Another one was I got the cops called on me.
That was an issue and very, very, very embarrassing.
Tell the story.
Wait, wait, is that the, is that going to be the title of this podcast?
Cops called.
Yeah, that would be fun.
That would be funny.
So Graham gave me the genius idea of reaching out to the listing agent and asking if they would also represent you as your buyer's agent.
Right.
And then split the buyer side commission.
So I can basically, let's say it's a $600,000 house.
I get a $6,000 credit in closing costs or something else.
So I decided to reach out to the listing agent on a property I really liked.
And I said, hey, I was wondering I'm a prospective buyer like, would you be willing to show me the property or something like that?
Maybe my wording was a little off, but I did not specifically say, can you represent me as the buyer's agent?
I should have always done that.
Exactly.
So that was, I mean, that was my fault.
And then he said, sure, it should be open between now and like, and he gave me a range of time where the house would be open for it.
And I figured maybe they're doing like an open house.
You know, maybe I just show up, meet the guy.
And he'd show me the property.
Wrong.
That's not what happened.
I showed up to the place.
What day of the week was this?
Because I feel like that's really important.
This was like two, three months ago.
It was not a Sunday.
Okay.
If it's not a Saturday or Sunday,
I would have been thinking that.
Well, still in this market.
Yeah, in this market,
usually they'll have windows of showings
that they'll be like,
I'm there of 12 to 3 to show up during that time.
It's pretty...
So I figured I'd be safe just showing up.
He thought I was actually the listing agent.
So he left the lockbox thing on the door.
Wait, who thought you were there?
He thought I was the buyer's agent.
Yes.
Representing my client, right?
So he left the lockbox on the door.
And there was like four numbers on the top of the lockbox.
And I was like,
oh, these are just the four numbers.
You hit to open up the lockbox.
box get the key open up the house. So I kept on trying over and over. I don't know what those
four numbers were. I think they were completely arbitrary for some usually wouldn't he tell you what
his numbers are ahead of time? No, because it's on the MLS. That's how you know that. Oh, you would have.
Okay. Got it. So he didn't tell me what the numbers are. I just kept beeping my way. I was like,
why isn't this working? Why is this where I was showing up? I was like, maybe he's inside.
Yeah. First, we want to thank Etitude for sponsoring this episode of the iced coffee hour podcast.
I absolutely love having a great night of sleep. And there's something about it that just helps
when we wake up refreshed and productive.
And that is exactly why I think that betting can be just like an investment.
You get a good pair of sheets and you get a great night of sleep.
It's as simple as that.
Unlike cotton that consumes a ton of water,
Etitude sheets are actually made out of 100% bamboo.
And they are so soft that some people even call it vegan silk.
Did you know it's like vegan silk, Alex?
Well, now you do.
Seriously, guys, because of attitude,
I think I have gotten some of the best sleep in my life.
And that has led to me being way more productive and efficient during my workday.
Same goes with me, Jack.
I actually sleep a little bit hot at night.
So because of how breathable they are, I've gotten some of the best sleep.
And there's no reason not to try them.
You got 30 nights.
And if you weren't completely satisfied, you can return them for a full refund.
But trust me, you will love them.

Thank you so much, attitude, for sponsoring this episode.
And back to the podcast.
Don't know what I was on that day, but he definitely wasn't inside.
Dog started barking, kept trying.
And then I got a call from the listing agent, and he basically said,
what are you doing?
You're scaring the sellers, because they have, like, a camera, and they were monitoring me.
And he said, you're really freaking out the sellers.
and then we had like five minutes.
I won't exaggerate.
It was probably two minutes.
We were going back and forth trying to understand.
And I wanted, like, I didn't understand that he didn't know that I was, you know, a buyer, not a buyer's agent.
And basically, we just went back and forth.
A lot of confusion that he said, hey, you're going to have to leave the property.
The sellers are requesting you, you leave.
And I was like, and I was like really embarrassed, a little frustrated because I drove all the way out there.
And I thought I made it clear enough.
but apparently I didn't.
And I drove home and then he called me when I got home
and he said, yeah, they were
calling the cops on you basically
because they thought it was a break-in
because they dealt with something like that.
What were you wearing? I mean, I would just
my normal clothes. I wouldn't say it was anything
fancy, but I mean,
maybe a hat and like I had a beard growing
out at the time. Oh, maybe it's the hat.
Yeah. Maybe the hat, daylight
having shaved and a few days showing up too far
just frantic just beeping away at the thing.
I don't think it matters who would have.
is if I saw somebody outside of her house beeping like that and they were getting multiple failed
attempts and I wasn't expecting anyone to be coming in at that time I would probably call the cops
no matter what they look right so anyways that happened I was really embarrassed a little frustrated
and I was standing in here he was on the phone with me saying that they were going to call the cops
on me and then I told him I was like will you will you still represent me as the buyer side agent
we can split the commission and this is what he said oh no we don't do that here I don't split my
commission at all. And then I was like, uh, why? And then, and then he said, that's like you going to
the mechanic and saying, I picked you as this, as the mechanic I want to operate on my vehicle. So you give
me a discount. And I was like, no, that's like going to the mechanic, telling them the issue with
your car and, and already knowing what it is and then asking for, I don't know. Well, I feel like that's
going to the mechanic. You already have the part and you're just like, I just need you to do the work for
me. Exactly. Or just saying there's a place doing it cheaper down the street would you match their price.
It was basically, we both had poor analogies.
Yeah.
And then he basically just, well, no, he didn't basically say.
What he did say was, all right, well, you have good luck with that.
And then he hung up.
You should call him right now, telling me he just got a place.
Hey, man, I just got a place way better than that place.
No, I don't want to start any argument with it.
Because I also don't even know what the eight, I don't remember.
It was like three months ago.
Okay.
All right.
Well, random realtor out there, Jack is beefing.
I'm beefing.
What are the finances like? What sort of loan did you get?
Sure. So I got a conventional loan 30 years. 2.874 was my rate, which is pretty incredible.
You had to do that because I got 2.875.
Right. I had to beat him. So, yeah, that was pretty exciting for me because that's basically like free money.
And also, what else is? Yeah.
It's free real estate. It is free real estate.
And what's your payment every month?
It's going to cost me about $3,000 a month.
to keep this house up and running with all of the rooms rented out because I'll also have
several roommates.
And I should be able to rent out the rooms for a pretty good price.
How much you're going to rent each room for?
It's going to be $8.75.
And I'm also going to tack on a maid fee, whatever it is, divided by however many.
That's fair.
Yeah, roommates.
And they'll also clean their room and everything.
So I figure that's, and it's also in a great location.
I'm going to be pretty kind with amenities and stuff like that.
I'm going to maybe provide paper towels, toilet paper, stuff like that.
Try to give a hotel-esque experience.
That's nice.
You learn from the best, Jack.
That means Jack's room is worth like probably 1,200 a month for the location.
Oh, yeah.
No, I wouldn't.
Yeah, because it also has its own bathroom.
Yeah, maybe more.
So who are you moving in?
Oh, we've got to find somebody for 1,200 a month.
No, you wouldn't do that.
1,200?
No, God, no, you wouldn't do that.
They stay in their room.
We have another angry teenager.
I know one.
Well, it's $1,300 a month.
I'll see that.
I just raised it.
What did I say?
1,200 and they raised the...
Well, the main fee and stuff like that.
The pool.
I know how much it costs here.
Yeah, but I know.
The cleaner fee plus the pool, plus we wouldn't charge anything extra for utilities.
Oh, okay.
With utilities, that makes sense.
$1,300 with utilities.
To finish it off, the numbers on the house, if I were to rent out two rooms at $8.75 a piece,
Alex's room, let's just say $1075 or something like that.
another person moving oh also I'm going to furnish I think two of the rooms and charge $60 per month or so to furnish the rooms
and then also another room I'm also going to rent out so there's four rooms I could potentially rent out the numbers on the house so I think it adds up to where I'd be cash flowing about $700 a month ish and I think that would be about a 7% cash on cash return and if you include the principal pay down the PITI the PITI that means I'd be getting I think about a
15 or 16% return annually, which is crazy because honestly, in this market, it seems like doing
something like that would be so difficult, right? And that's not even accounting for potential
appreciation, which obviously one should never count on. But yeah, I didn't think it was possible.
But now I'm doing the numbers. And I was like, dang, maybe I did get a decent deal on this house.
So that feels really good. That is good. We got to see. Congratulations. Yeah. Okay, sure. So I'm just
going to show a couple photos. I don't want to drag the whole house thing on for too long.
But here, let me, let me pull it up. So I'm just going to show, I'm just going to show like three
as the house. But this is the front yard. Can you just
explain what you're seeing right now?
So I am seeing a
brown house with
a two-car garage out front,
a large window
above a double door entry.
Graham, what's your opinion?
On the facade.
I like the palm trees.
Not a huge fan of the color.
Nice landscape that overall.
I would say I just don't like the brown.
Fair enough. Yeah, I agree with you.
It is a little bland.
Then we got the pool.
Picture two.
Yeah, I like picture two.
Nice pool.
Looks very blue.
It doesn't look like there's any plaster issues that I could see.
There are a couple plaster issues, but it's mostly cosmetic.
I like it.
Yeah, I like it too.
And then picture three.
That's also the pool.
Also pool.
Got a hot tub.
And inside.
I like that kitchen.
It's going to be really great for it entertaining.
Cats are going to love this.
You're going to be up there on that counter all day.
Great refrigerator.
Now, you did negotiate.
by Jeremy's refrigerator.
Did you go and measure that yet?
So you bought a refrigerator
and not having measured the size.
You know, it is what it is, man.
Okay, it is what it is.
So anyways, the point of this whole house
conversation, guys, is that
if you don't think you can find the deal in this market,
you can't.
Okay, you just got to look for it for about four or five months.
If you rent out all of the bedrooms,
you too could have a good deal.
If you rent out all the veggies.
And the garage.
Yeah.
Storage.
No, I'm not renting out the garage.
But I would if I could.
And you could Airbnb be the,
pool. Have you seen that? You can't Airbnb? Oh, yes, you can. Yeah. Yeah, there's now an app where you can rent out
people's pools by the hour. Do you believe it? We should try that for this to family and see how much
money like we can make. I'd be curious about that. I'd just want such a high price, but
the point is content, Graham. It's not about making between $20 and $80. The point is content.
$20 an hour and $80. No, oh gosh, no, no, no, no. I think realistically you charge
like 150 an hour.
Okay.
So,
I'm sure.
Do that.
Okay.
The next thing,
this is a conversation
that's going to be very exciting.
I was playing on just doing this,
not on camera,
but since we are doing it,
you know,
a podcast right now,
I figured it's a good time.
Graham,
I'm thinking about making a video,
my own video.
What sort of video?
Something about the house.
I think it would be really fun.
And I like the whole idea
of starting up something,
not that I'm starting up anything,
but having 100%
creative freedom over something I can make.
And I think that that is extremely appealing to me.
And I just wanted to know your opinion on that.
Go for it.
You think so?
And what are your feelings towards that?
I think as long as it doesn't impact the second channel or the podcast, that's it.
I freaking told you.
What?
Oh, you didn't tell me.
Oh, he told you about that?
Yeah, he told me about this a while back.
He's like, how do you think we even feel?
I'm like, I think he's going to be fine as long as it doesn't affect any of the channels.
Yeah.
But how long have you felt this way?
Because a while ago, we did have a conversation where you said, Jack, if you were to ever
have your own channel, like, you definitely, you clearly were against that idea.
But that was a time where I was a lot more busy.
Yeah.
A lot more, like back before Alex and living in Santa Monica.
Yeah, I don't know.
I think at that time, you were, you were probably putting in like eight to ten hour
days, six days a week.
Eight to ten hour days, six days a week?
Bro, Santa Monica?
Less than that, more?
Oh my gosh.
Santa Monica, all I did was.
work and go surfing like once every two weeks. Maybe it was that. We were doing a lot back then.
But I think if you would brought it up back then, I'm like, where are you going to find
because something else has to fall back? Yeah. No, I agree with you. That time, if I did do my own
thing, it definitely would cut into my work. So that's one of the reasons why I held off. But now it's
like I'm realizing like, I'm definitely think I'm making enough money doing what I'm doing right
here. And now I'd like to spend a little bit of my free time doing something maybe as more
of a hobby, something I'm more passionate on. So I'm pretty excited about that. And maybe I
don't even like it because I've realized I love like creating content for other people. That's so fun
for me. But if I were to start my own channel, maybe I would love it. Maybe I wouldn't like it.
And if I didn't like it, I wouldn't continue doing it. So, all right. Jack, and to be fair,
sorry, there's a low battery thing here, guys, but to be fair, Graham said the same thing to me,
because I had a channel before this. It wasn't very active. But he said, I mean, as long as it doesn't
cut into your work. And we all work a lot here. So, but he said, uh, you know, go for it.
Yeah, no, I'd be fine with it.
Just, if I see anything fall back, the quality of either the podcast or the second channel
fall, then that would be worth having a discussion about.
But as long as the quality is the same, and if anything, I think if you enjoy yourself
somewhere else, it's going to reflect everywhere.
I agree.
And I think also it's like, I mean, for anybody, I think that the job usually comes
before the hobby.
Yeah.
But I know you've wanted to expand on the podcast more.
Yeah.
So I would expect that, like, that sort of.
or grow this would be something that you would do after everything else is said and done oh yeah
of course i'm for it it was nervous i was really nervous to bring that up to you be honest what the
channel yeah i was really really nervous uh i don't know because i feel like it's been like a like a
like a weight over over my my shoulders or whatever for a long time now i just feel like i have
the biggest i told you so because you brought that up to me so you're like how would graham feel
i'm like gonna say it doesn't affect anything i don't know graham i'm afraid of like what
What was the worst case that I was going to say no or I'd be like, well, then I want 50%?
No, no, no, no.
I don't think you would have won anything.
I just think like you would have felt like a little disapproving of it.
And also, why?
Yeah.
Because you would think inevitably somehow it would cut into my work.
Okay.
So, and also it's like, I mean, this job, everything I do with you guys, it's one of the most
important things to me in my entire life and I wouldn't want to do anything.
And you guys have seen what I've done.
And like, I wouldn't want to do anything to get in the way of this.
So I'd say, do it, do it, have fun with it.
I think that a house tour is like the, the best content that you could do, especially
is the first video.
I know, exactly.
And it wouldn't even really be a house tour because I would love to do that on this
to family.
Get someone to live in the house for free, but have them just do some vlog, like one
vlog.
No, I would, I would want it to be a little more hands-on.
And I wouldn't want it to be a vlog every time.
Like, I would try out the cooking thing.
And then I would try out staying in the chival.
cheapest Airbnb. I've been seeing that trend. It looks really fun.
You're going to be doing what I'm doing with
lifestyle content, but with a finance
emphasis. I don't think I would have necessarily
a finance emphasis. I would just do
whatever I wanted to. I'd post a short.
I just have fun with it, to be honest.
That's it. You'll make one video.
You're going to make the House Tour video. It's going to do
really, really, really well. It's going to give you
a bit of a false start.
I agree. I think on a new channel,
House Tour, you're picking like the two
best topics right there, the past two
things about a channel.
I
well as we've seen
with us to family
10 uploads
10 uploads that's where you get the sense
of like what's going on
so we'll see
No that's fair
I yeah
He's looking at that
Ramsey looks really good
He's looking
Oh oh
Oh we got to keep him there
No way
Okay so don't touch him
Don't acknowledge him
He's in the room
He's in the room
Wait wait wait
That is awesome
Who's my handsome kitty
He's a handsome kitty.
That's all he likes.
You just call him handsome and he likes that.
Ramsey.
Such a handsome boy.
All right, what else do we have?
Ramsey's going to join us.
So Macy, I wanted to know your opinion on this.
What do you think of Graham starting in OnlyFans?
Like, what type of OnlyFans?
Because I know OnlyFans has this rep for having very adult.
Provocative.
What they do?
Provocative.
Content.
But there are other people.
on only fans like calling Samir, right?
And they give BTS content.
And I think if it was something a little bit more like the call in Samir,
I think 100% right away, I'd be like, yeah, I don't even, doesn't even bother me.
Any like explicit adult content, I mean, it's your body and to your choice on those things.
But, you know, I might be a little uncomfortable at first, but I'll support you no matter what you want to do.
How far could I go on that before it you would feel uncomfortable?
Okay.
Well, first,
It is laughing.
I'm just like, I want to know.
At what point does it start, like, making you uncomfortable?
Okay.
1,000% if you did adult content and then try to get me in on it,
I would be 1,000% like uncomfortable.
That's fair.
About solo stuff.
I mean, it's just like if it was anything where he was, you know,
sexualizing himself, I might feel a little uncomfortable,
but I'd support you.
I mean, we're partners.
That's what we do.
But where,
Is the line drawn?
Like, is it, let's say I'm, like, at the gym, I got my shirt off.
I got, like, you know, two weights.
I'm looking good.
I think where I would start to get uncomfortable, but, again, I would support you,
would be anything that wouldn't be allowed on Instagram.
Like, anything that Instagram would see and take down.
I think I would start to be a little.
Instagram would take it down.
That's pretty, you have to do a lot to get taken down.
Not really.
Well, I guess I know where the line is for girls on that, which,
it would be like really anything beyond a bikini or anything
topless for girls you're just like you're out
just like double chin
you got to keep him there
he's the star of the show now
yeah but I think that's where my mind
would start to become a little uncomfortable
but again I support you and wait
you know I support you that's what we do
yeah yeah I would feel the same way if you started
and only fans, if you wouldn't want your parents to see it, then I would be, I'd be, I'd be
against it.
I don't know.
That's the way I, that's the way I see it.
I feel, I feel super uncomfortable half the time posting anything on Instagram in general.
But also, like, even just being in shorts, I feel like half the time I'm like, oh, gosh, I feel
so weird posting in shorts.
They're like, I don't even think on my public account, I have a single picture of me even,
like, at a beach.
in a bikini where you can tell I'm in a bikini.
Yeah.
Because I feel uncomfortable with that.
Yeah.
So, I don't know.
For myself, I've, I tried to get my identity verified.
Didn't work because they don't have my ID on me now.
But I want to, I don't know.
Obviously, I'm not going to post, like, even shirtless, I'm not going to do that.
But, or maybe if you subscribe whenever, I don't know.
But I don't know.
I want to do it.
I want to see how much money I'd make it a week.
But I don't know what I would post.
You can make a video on it.
Maybe.
we'll see but it's not going to be like I don't want to take my shirt off or anything but I but I
don't say that too don't well maybe maybe I do maybe you have to maybe I don't I don't
you know if you want to get something that's really attractive of you without it being revealing
all you need to do is take pictures of your arms and the whole only thing is your arms
I can just do that like holding a coffee or like something like that I'll just do that
you can do bicep curls like coffee oh with bankroll just holding bankroll coffee yes all right
we'll see.
I'm like 99%
I'm going to start one
because why not?
But I don't know what I'm going to post.
You're going to have to subscribe.
You follow?
Subscribe or what do you just?
I've heard through the Great Vine and subscribe.
I think it's subscribed.
That's what I was thinking too
because I think it was the same as Twitch.
Yeah.
Because why not?
If calling in some mirror doing it,
I'm going to do it too.
That's fair.
Yeah.
All right guys.
So Graham just pulled up
the initial emails that I sent a couple years back
when I wanted to work for him.
He had no idea who I was.
I was a total fan at the
time. Extremely embarrassing. I've been not looking forward to this moment for a while now,
but I think Graham is going to read them. Part of me wants to do this on the second channel,
because it's really good, but we're going to do it on the podcast because we can clip this part
out. And all I'm asking guys, because we're not putting on the second channel, just subscribe.
If you're at this point, Jack did not want to do this video for a long time. Two years.
He said no to this video. Macy's not heard these emails. Alex has not heard these emails.
and Jack did not want this getting out.
Extremely embarrassing.
I was like desperate.
I like how you came up with the topics for this video
and you bring up the emails.
No, I've been telling you,
it's been pressure lately.
That's me.
The first email you sent me, February 2nd, 2019.
The title is just lunch.
Nice.
Hey, Graham, my name is Jack Selby
and I'm a subscriber to your YouTube channel.
You are a truly inspiring person
and a true role model for me.
I love your videos.
And make sure to like,
them when I watch. That's good. I'm 20 years old and like you when you were younger. I'm not
I'm not entirely sure what I want to do in life. I have huge dreams and aspirations, but I let
stuff get in the way. I recently decided to get into the real estate business because of you.
However, I'm not sure how well it will go over. I know you're in L.A. I live in a neighboring
city Ventura. I was wondering if you I was wondering if I could drive out to L.A. and buy you
lunch so we could talk. It would mean so much to me if I could just get some advice from you
or we could just talk. I am by no means looking for a job or money from you. I just want
to talk. My cell is blank or you could reach me by email. Please get back to me. Thank you so much.
Okay. So first email is great. It's just lunch. So a few things. One, it was probably way too long.
Two, you didn't offer him free food. I said I would buy you lunch, didn't I? Did you? Take you to lunch?
I think it was implied that I would be paying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I figured that that, you know,
looking back, I'm like, okay, that's not very embarrassing. Although I definitely could have done a better job.
It's like you don't just subject something, you know, lunch.
You know, it's interesting.
Yeah.
Was your dad a little bit offended or is he going to be offended that Graham's the reason why you got into real estate when he is an appraiser?
No.
I mean, the reason why I'm so interested in personal finance investing is because, you know, my dad would tell me about it growing up.
Now, I'm curious, how many emails do you see like this a day now?
Well, I mean, I don't check the email anymore, but Alex would have a better idea.
How many emails do we get a day?
All the time.
I mean, we get so many.
And, you know, if we took up everybody's lunch offer, I mean, it'd be impossible.
Actually, I got a DM on Instagram of somebody who said they love this to family.
They're going to be here this Saturday.
And they wanted to take me to super sushi.
Wow.
And I don't get that many.
And I was like, wow, maybe I'll take them up.
Listen, you might, you just do it.
Yeah.
You're lucky it's somebody who wants to, like, actually go out to lunch with you.
Usually it's people who are like, I can't get.
get a hold of Graham.
I want to take him to lunch.
I'm like, I don't even get to, you're expecting me to pass this along to Graham.
And I'm not even getting free food out of this.
I'm not invited to this lunch.
What the heck, guys?
Yeah, I get those, I get this too.
But to answer your question, Graham, we get probably about probably at least 40 a week.
Wow.
People who want to take you out to lunch.
And that's probably on a slow week.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
All right.
So then you sent another email to.
two days later.
Great follow up there, okay?
Thanks.
Same email thread.
Hey, Graham, I sent you a message two days ago.
In one of your videos, you said that a very important thing to do in picking careers is pick one with the opportunity to grow.
You also want on to say how important becoming an assistant real estate agent is.
After watching over 25 of your videos, I've decided to become a real estate agent.
I look up to you and I wish that I had this.
Really?
Sorry, I should.
It's just, it's weird because I haven't, I haven't, I haven't, I haven't looked through these emails since I first, like, I don't, honestly, I don't think I've ever read these emails, to be honest with you. I picked the last one and the first one.
So everything in between, I haven't seen it, okay?
It's just weird seeing this back then, that's all.
Just knowing you now, it's, it's dirt.
What is it, man?
I want you to read it, Jack.
No, I can't read it.
It's either me or Jack.
has to read it from his mouth.
I'm not going to say any of this from my mouth.
It's so embarrassing.
It's going to come off different.
Okay, here.
It's not from your mouth.
It's from your fingers.
Yes, okay.
That sounded inappropriate.
Yeah, yeah.
Because I want this, because I don't want this to come off the wrong way.
Do you want me to read it?
Yes, I do.
Oh, frick.
All right.
All right.
You also went on to say how important becoming an assistant real estate agent is.
After watching over 25 of your videos, I have decided to become a real estate agent.
funny, to be just like you.
See, you're laughing too.
Come on, Jack.
I look up to you so much.
And I wish that I had the talent that you have.
Please, Graham, I would love to be your assistant in real estate.
That is so desperate.
Please, Graham, I would love to be your assistant in real estate.
I believe that I would make an amazing real estate agent.
I have a personality that has always gravitated people towards me.
I believe that I have the charm.
Oh my God.
Did you read that?
Oh, my God.
This is,
I believe that I have the charm and persuasive ability to become one of the best real estate agent.
Yeah, real estate agents out there.
That's funny.
I would give you 50% commission easily, maybe even 75%.
That's silly negotiating.
I know.
That's literally just saying I'll give you 75%.
I'd pay 50, but maybe I would pay 50.
No, it's like, okay, yeah, you'd give 75%.
I will have a horrible standard of living currently if that means paving the way to future success.
I will have a horrible standard of living.
That's desperate again.
Please consider this Graham.
It would truly change my life, hyphen Jack Lloyd Selby, trying to be very professional.
Wow.
My hands are like clammy.
Every single time you text me, because Graham mentioned these emails when you,
when you first started dating.
Now it says Jack Lloyd Silby.
Wow.
All right.
But,
okay,
so Jack,
this is like,
because I kind of have my lifestyle channel and then I talk about relationship
stuff a lot.
This is like,
you went on a first day.
Like,
you're going on a coffee date.
And then afterwards,
you're just like,
I want to marry you and I want to be the father of your children.
Yeah.
Yeah,
that's literally how it was.
Hey,
Grant.
Okay,
this is also May 15th.
So this is about three months.
Yeah.
I just kept sitting on it, man.
Yeah.
I was still hoping you'd reply to me for some reason.
Yeah, after a few months.
Wait, May 15th.
So he had just started working with you.
May.
So this is three months.
I waited.
Wow.
So he had,
we literally both came into your life from the same place,
knowing each other.
I thought he was working for you for like two or three months before we started.
I know.
I had been working because I think it was right around here.
Yeah,
it was May.
I mean,
I'm not going to get into it yet,
but you'll see.
Okay, so it's Hey, Graham, I just wanted to say that I have so much respect for you.
I've been following you for a few months now, and I've recommended you to all of my friends.
Very true.
I've recommended him.
I even watched his channel with my dad.
That is true.
Because one of my best friends was in your friend group.
And she's, once I started dating Graham.
Yeah.
And then I found out you were working with him.
Yeah.
Then she was like, he literally told all of us to watch Graham.
Yeah.
Oh, that's cool.
Oh, I was, I was obsessed badly.
Not that bad.
I got a Chase Freedom card because of you.
I got a Roth IRA because of you.
I've made a few hundred bucks.
I've also been constantly exploring possible real estate investments.
It only took three years now.
Luckily, I have a good credit because I listened to you.
You have made me, you have made a massive impact on me.
Please respond.
Like I said, I have, please respond.
I have tried contacting you before.
would love to buy you dinner or something or something wherever you want to go i will drive to
l a i live in ventura 50 minute drive i want to assist you in any way i can because of the way you've
helped me if you want you can make a video talking about how your youtube videos have affected people
to increase your validity and have me on there although it's not publicity i'm seeking
i just want to meet you i idolize you i also find you better than all the other youtube
creators in the financial area take that kevin here is some backer
on me. I am 20. My dad is a real estate appraiser and my mom is a kindergarten teacher. I'm going to go to
UCSB to study economics, possibly go to law school afterwards. I wanted to become a real estate agent,
but my dad doesn't support it. Why doesn't he support it? He, well, he was a real estate
appraiser. Yeah. And I mean, they, I'm sure that there's kind of a unique relationship between
appraisers and agents. Yes. So I think he just doesn't like, like, he didn't want me to go into anything with
sales.
Okay.
I think was his idea.
Okay.
I love investing.
Here are some things I do.
I have a CIT savings builder account, 2.45 interest rate bragging.
Oh, man.
That's good.
I invest in several different ETFs.
I have some mutual funds through Vanguard.
I have a Roth IRA and I have the credit card previously mentioned.
My financial situation is actually very good for my age, so I'm not looking for
handouts, period.
Please just a chat or something.
Let me buy you dinner.
You can contact me email or cell phone.
Please, this would truly mean.
the world to me. And then, so the next one is basically me referencing a Jubilee video that Graham
appeared on, which was Millionaires versus Minimum Wage Workers. And this is the most, I think just about the
most desperate I got. I also followed up later that day. Also, this is so bad. What breaks my heart
is that I was also going to sign up for that Jubilee video as a minimum wage worker. So I would have
met you then. That would have been incredible.
Wow. Had you been on that video with me. Yeah.
That would have been insane. That would be really cool.
At the time I was working a minimum wage job.
And I was so close to signing up for that video. I think I'd felt no, I don't know
if I'd filled out the form that they sent via email, but I was going, I was going to
sign up for it. So yeah, I said that broke my heart.
And then I said on May 19th, four days later, hey Graham, you didn't respond to my
emails. Maybe you just didn't see them. I could just be an intern for you and just do
whatever you want. I would work for free. I just want to talk to you. I've been following you on
YouTube forever. I look up to you. Please consider that. Do you need someone to run errands for you?
To sift through comments or emails? To research things for you. I'm an econ major at UCSB.
I have four months of summer right now that I can dedicate to you. Please, man, I can even edit your
YouTube videos. I know that that's a pain for you. I will edit videos for free. Your time is worth
much more than editing YouTube videos. Three years ago, I said that. I know.
And it is.
It's worth more.
And then.
And then.
I responded.
Graham said,
Hey, Jack.
Sorry.
I didn't see the last emails.
I get so many.
What's the best number to reach you?
I could use some help with some random things if you want to give it a shot.
I remember seeing that email.
After months.
I like,
of just thinking about it all day.
And I said,
and I also DMs him on Instagram a couple of times.
We don't need to read those.
and then I said,
Hey, of course, my personal cell
Or, hey, of course, exclamation point.
My personal cell is, sell.
Thank you so much, Graham.
Exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point.
My heart skipped a beat when you emailed me.
Feel free to call or text me anytime.
But it worked.
And how fast did you respond back to that?
You want to know what worked, though?
I mean, you can't see.
Jack, you want to know what works for me?
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Here's what's crazy.
I sent Jack this email at 235,000.
me in. He had a full response back to me at 237. He wrote all of that and responded to me in two
minutes. Well, it's clear I didn't think about it too much because I put my heart skip to beat.
I'm not trying to make you my girlfriend, man. I mean, I probably would have at that time.
So some people don't know this. I originally saw Graham in a Jubilee video, that same one that you
referenced. And I thought he was cute. And then he mentioned something that aligned with one of my
my best friend and I had this theory called the Happy Hour Sushi Theory.
And it was that if somebody understood the value of going early to Happy Hour Sushi,
they understood the value of money because they understood like where to save and whatever.
It was this whole thing.
And Graham specifically referenced that.
So I thought he was cute and I followed him on Instagram.
And then I reached out to him via just responding to one of his stories with like a joke
because I figured he wasn't going to respond.
You want to know our first interactions?
it was a giant pool
it was a story of a giant pool
and with the temperatures like this is
you know it's 110 and I wrote
that's not a pool
that's a giant jacuzzi
and then he wrote back
ha ha facts
that was the that was our initial
conversation I think it was
romantic yeah I forget when
you were way more into it than I was
and I'm his girl
yeah I remember just sorting through
and just like that was a funny comment
and it's funny
that was it
yeah yeah yeah we just started talking
pools and jacuzis and LA houses from there.
It's interesting how people change over time.
You know, Jack, I was kind of with you too.
I mean, when I put my video up, I think Jack was the first one to comment on there.
But Graham didn't comment.
And he commented on other people's video.
And I was like, that's because we called you first.
You're the only one in the beginning that we called.
Oh, you want to know how that...
We didn't bother commenting.
Alex, you want to have that conversation went?
Yes.
I was in I think I was wrapping up out of a meeting and Graham runs into the bedroom and I'm sitting there and I'm like
You know, I'm in a meeting. It wraps up and he's like holding his phone watching his video
He was like I think we found it and I was like
We found it and then and then he I'm sorry he was holding the phone towards him. He said I think we found it
I'm like
What? Because I couldn't see what was on his phone. He turned around and then it's like oh. Oh, oh
Somebody filled the assistant position. He's like
Yeah.
And it just walks out of the room.
I was like, okay.
All right.
But you know what's crazy is how many emails we get, Jack,
that are just like yours, that you sent,
that we just don't see because we get so many of them.
Yeah.
How many other Jacks are out there?
I don't know.
I've tried to hire a few people to do some random things here and there.
But unfortunately, it's never worked out to my...
But what about one like that?
What about one of those emails?
because we get a lot of those emails.
Yeah.
We almost never get back to them because there's so many.
Right.
I think a lot of people in that position that are that desperate would do something of their own.
A lot of people would just start up their own channel and start taking action like that.
I think so.
You didn't?
No.
I know I didn't, but, well, that's because I also had no idea how.
Like, I consumed so much YouTube, but I didn't even know where to start on that.
And I knew for a fact, like, I could provide value to you in any way.
possible. I knew I, and I would do it for nothing, you know, so.
Right before you guys hired me, I was going in full time on content creation, and I had just
gotten my first sponsorship and on TikTok. And I passed on it after I got hired, but, so I kind of
get what you mean, Graeme. Yeah. Anyways, I'm sure that there are people out there that would be
willing to do the kind of stuff that, that I did. And I'm sure Graham would have done in the same position,
they're there it's a little tough to come by at least in my experience it's timing i think it's all
on timing like i've gotten a lot of even for myself for my channel where i've had people offer to
edit but editing a is one of the my favorite parts of making content i love getting in there and
doing like goofy little things to zoom ins i feel like you could give i could we all all four of us
in this room could have the same exact footage and we'll come up with completely different videos
and that's what I love about editing,
but I'm not at a point where I need an editor.
So a lot of them do move into a folder
and kind of out of sight, out of mind for me to go back to later.
Yeah.
But I think that you just hit it on the right timing.
Yeah, no, I think I got really lucky, definitely with timing as well.
I'm going to, I'm now, this is my podcast.
I have staged a coup and it is mine.
So Jack, now you have to name your favorite and least favorite thing about Graham
because I've turned this into a hot seat episode.
Sure. Okay. So my favorite thing about Graham, I know for a fact that I can count on him. And by counting on it, I know that a compass encompasses like a lot of things. So like I can count, I can count on him for like a great opinion on something. If he says he's going to do something, I can count on him that he'll do it. You know, I can count on him. Like I, he's a great person to rely on because he always holds through.
So that's, I think that's probably
The least favorite.
The least favorite thing I have about Graham.
Probably, I mean, I got to say,
it's probably your frugality, honestly.
I don't think, I don't, I mean, I'm not your girlfriend,
so I don't think it's charming, you know,
but I definitely think like, it's holding you back so much.
What would you do?
What would you spend money on?
It's the person who got a new MacBook computer.
I don't know.
Yeah, and it was a great investment.
A really, really great investment.
It speeds up.
my editing like tenfold and also uh i think i edit way better on it because i use final cut now
and i could barely render final cut i had to use i move you on my mac so what else so what do you want
what do you want me spend money on uh i think you have to forget about these little like five
dollar charges even up to a thousand dollar charges man i just like because you're spending
okay but you're spending your your mental capacity deliberating in your head over whether or not
you should pay for something for example when you're negotiating with with jeremy about buying
his old Tesla. You're spending so much
time for like pennies to you.
I mean, you're trying, no, I'm just saying.
He wants 45. I was like 40.
At 40 it makes sense.
No, he's willing to do 44, I thought.
No, 43. Well, I don't want to say.
I think with Graham, because I was worried
initially we first started dating when he talked
about bringing on one full-time assistant
and he wanted a driver and different stuff.
I was worried that the more he'd make, the more
he would change. But I feel like
Graham's the same because
of the things like this. He's always kind of
kept his touch because he knows what it.
Some of those frugality things are him,
just he still's in touch with what it means to make every single dollar.
I think that those weird frugality things that maybe just for us
and what we see is like it's $5 just get over it.
For him, it's kept gram gram.
And that's why still now, I mean, obviously there's ways that both of us have matured
and grown as people over our relationship.
But I think it's one thing that's kept you, you.
And it's kept you so in touch.
Well, I was speaking more so from a business perspective.
I wasn't really talking about, like, from a personal level,
because I do think from a personal level, it keeps you grounded,
having the amount of money that you have,
not willing to spend the extra dollar for, I don't know,
an extra side or something like that.
I think it keeps you grounded in like the normal people out here.
No.
But, like, from a business perspective,
because, you know, we do a lot of business together,
I do think it could help you a lot if you just upgraded.
But tell me what to spend money.
You have not told me.
something that I haven't done here.
I'll say 10 things if you want me to say 10 things.
Yes, please.
Okay, so one of the things, you want to say something?
Oh, no, I just was going to keep count for you.
Oh, sure.
Okay, so one of the first things is the A7S3 camera.
Okay.
That's on Alex.
He agreed to it.
I said yes.
So get rid of that.
That's on the way.
Well, no, I'm just saying that took two months, two months of convincing.
It's been fine.
It's been fine until then, though.
No, I'm just saying if you had upgraded it a while, I mean, do you not want me to go into that one since it's solved?
Yeah, so that was an issue for,
I mean, for a long time.
But the current camera's fine.
I've never had an issue with the camera.
This is an upgrade.
For the towels on your lights.
You gotta get rid of that.
Does it make any difference?
Yes, it does.
It does.
It does.
It's quality.
It's quality.
I completely disagree.
And for the viewers, I think that, look, for a lot of them, maybe it won't matter.
But I do think if you're going to grow, you need to start investing back into your channel a little bit, man.
It works.
I don't know.
I like the towels.
But, okay, what's the next one?
Uh, what's up?
Oh, count.
You only have one.
Oh, got it.
Okay.
Sorry.
The Volvo.
Volvo was just kind of...
I thought that was the best financial choice
I've done. That was one of the best biases here.
Okay, well, I disagree with that.
First of all, because...
Look, it's funny for branding.
You can negotiate you.
I don't think it's funny.
I use that car.
You rarely use that car.
Rarely ever do use that car.
You've probably used it once in the first four months that we own the car.
I've used it multiple times.
He does use it more than the Tesla.
I will say.
But I just don't understand.
It's like you have a Tesla and you also have a Volvo.
Yeah, because you never know when we need an extra car.
It's $1,000.
Sure.
It's worth five, four or five.
Like, it's, I would be stupid not to buy that car.
That car would make me more money than buying Jeremy's Tesla.
Sure.
Okay, let me also, I'll just say a few more things.
As far as the set for the iced coffee.
I remember I had to call you and double check and convince you for a long time
about upgrading some of the things and buying some of the things for the set.
And that was, that was like you, it took a little bit of convincing for that.
I think it was the camera because I said we had two.
canons.
I think what it all comes down to is I think that you should maybe instill a little bit more
trust in Alex and I to make some of the more, you know, the $1,000 to $5,000 decisions.
Because I also, I don't even think it's worth your time to think about these little,
these little inconveniences for you.
That could really improve the business.
I think it's not worth your time.
If we say, Graham, you need to buy this to make the business better.
What do I need right now?
Well, we still don't have an A7S3 for the main channel.
You also,
Alex Stanley.
I'm working on getting that first thing.
I still think you should have done the Canon.
I think Canon has a better color profile.
I think they can't.
They tell me that it's so.
But they hooked it up.
I don't know.
Sony's on here.
You guys can make the decision for yourself.
We're rocking Sony's.
And then Canon is hers.
Give me something to buy.
What is it?
Something to buy?
Yeah.
You come up with them.
I will admit,
I'm put on the spot a little bit.
Yeah.
We did have to nag you about the Wi-Fi.
The Wi-Fi, yeah.
Yeah, that one sucks.
Because I would be in the bedroom and then you'd be uploading something,
but I would be on a call with somebody, like on a Zoom call.
And then I would just lose connection out of a meeting.
Oh, because we didn't get service in the bedroom.
It was.
When somebody was uploading, then I would lose service.
So when somebody was using a lot of the bandwidth, I would just...
All right.
And that was for a solid, like, I want to say the first month that we had moved in here.
That was bad.
It was just like a total issue.
You couldn't even use the Wi-Fi in my room.
So that was an issue.
And I had to call you convinced to upgrade the router.
another thing was the iMacs i remember it had been a long time even though we're splitting the cost of
that basically examples what what can i buy now what do we need now there's more to life than finding the
perfect car but finding the perfect car can help you get the most out of life like the SUV that
handles everything from drop off to off road and the car that hulls groceries and hockey teams
or the van that's gone from just practical to practically family whatever you want wherever you're

What do you think, Alex?
Because I know you probably also have an opinion on this.
Well,
the first thing that should be taken care of is those lights, man.
You shouldn't be having towels on your lights at this level.
And it does make a difference.
I'm telling you.
Like, look at how quality the lighting is in here.
It's amazing.
But Graham's main channel,
like he's totally overexposed.
I want to say half the person,
half the time.
Okay.
But that's Graham.
That's Graham.
That's his brand.
It's funny because,
oh,
because we went to that YouTube review
of your channel.
Like,
maybe get a hair light,
but just keep everything the same.
Yeah.
Even Mr.
B is like he wouldn't change anything.
But when you,
what?
Mr.
B said he wouldn't change anything.
The only thing Mr.
B said was,
I think was an editor.
I agree with that.
I think you should hire out an editor.
I do just want to say,
though,
it's like when you,
when you side by side to someone
like Ali Abdal and Graham,
and you're just like,
wow,
the production in Ali Abdel's.
It's like,
who's getting more views?
Who's getting more views?
You,
but you also have more subscribers
and you've been getting more views
for a long amount of time.
I'm just,
I'm just saying.
Ali has always said better quality.
Okay,
who's getting more subscribers?
You were Mr. Beast
and who has higher production quality.
That's totally different channels.
You can't compare Mr. Beast
with finance content.
Finance is too niche.
Yeah.
Mr. Bees is so general.
You can't do that.
Um,
okay.
Graham.
Yeah.
Favorite and least favorite thing about Jack.
Yeah,
but we're running out of time.
I know.
That's why I'm trying to let this go.
How about we just do the favorite thing on Jack and then we'll leave.
No, no, I want to know.
No, come on.
I told you my least favorite thing.
We're running out of time.
Just make it quick.
We're running out of time the more we're talking about this.
The best thing about Jack, I like your ideas.
And I think you're very proactive with everything that you do.
And you're always thinking about the next thing and how to make something better.
So I like that you constantly embrace.
improve.
The least.
I don't know if there's a...
No, you know, you have something.
I don't know if I have a least.
Come on, damn.
It's moving out.
Yeah, you're moving out.
I don't like that.
Least, least, least, least.
I know what are your least favorite.
What is it?
You've, you, you, I mean, it's because you guys are different,
but he prefers to take some time off as to where you would prefer to work.
No, it's not.
I wouldn't say that's a least.
I mean, I'm sure you don't like that.
But I do like, I would like to say I do come back swinging.
You do.
Like once I take a break, it reinvigorates my passion.
I think the only time that was bad was when you were also still in college.
That was tough.
But now it's like you take off like two days, but you already are,
oh, you know what?
Yeah, the only things I could think of is that there were a few times where I was pushing to get something done like really, really, really fast.
And it's worked out in our favor.
And I could tell, like, for example, on the second.
channel there have been a few videos there we were like i give you the footage at like 6 p.m.
and it sucks but i'm like we have to get it out the next day and you're like i could tell but you
but you did it and it turned out like really well we've had some of those really good videos where they
we had to time it uh same with the podcast the um uh doge coin guy uh doge pro and uh you were
just about to leave to go and visit your family and i was like no jack we got to do it and you're
like no we already have another episode lined up for here
here. I was like, Jack, we got to do it.
We got to do it. No, it's just to leave right now.
I'm like, you got to do it. And that was
like one of the most viewed episodes that we had
in the first like two weeks.
Yeah. So stuff like that. We did it.
We did it. But I think there's that element
of that you have to do things
immediately. And if you don't
strike within that like this,
within 24 hours, you lose the opportunity.
I think those are the opportunities
that get the best work. Yeah, I think sometimes
you don't have like a perfect, which
granted you do so many other things as well.
don't take this as insulting because there's probably plenty of these things exactly like what
I'm about to say that I could be better at. I think sometimes you have a hard time seeing trends.
Trends.
Trends that are going on like things.
Or time sensitive trends.
I think, you know what?
I think Jack sees the trends, but sometimes it's like it's the pain of having to drop your schedule
or change his schedule last minute to accommodate that.
That's what I think is.
I know.
A lot of times, the only tough thing is usually like, like if it's late and I'm like already like,
okay, I'm done.
Like, I worked or whatever.
Or if I'm going to visit my family and I'm already, like, if I tell myself I'm leaving
at this time, I want to leave exactly at that time.
So, all right, Macy, you want to hear my favorite and least favorite thing about you?
All right, let's do it.
Okay.
Yeah, no.
Oh, shoot.
I'll make it, I'll make it quick.
All right.
Ready?
Yep.
My least favorite thing about you, the dishwasher, or the dishwasher, or the dishwasher,
the washer and the dryer are always occupied.
Yeah, it can sometimes be bad to remember.
There are clothes in the dryer right now.
Sorry.
Oh, always.
It's like I always, I walk in with my thing.
I'm like, oh, I'm going to clean my underwear.
And then I open up the thing.
I'm like, okay.
And then I walk back in my room and I come back the next day.
And it's the same thing.
And I'm like, okay.
And then I walk back in my room.
It's like, you just text Macy.
Well, I did try texting you one time.
And then you responded like kind of how I thought you were going to respond.
I was like, okay, I'm not even going to bother.
We weren't home and I had certain items in that dryer that I didn't.
Oh, it was a comforter.
Oh, I didn't check the dryer.
I just checked the washer.
Yeah, in the dryer that I didn't want you pulling out
because I felt very uncomfortable with you
finding those items in there.
Okay.
All right, well, that's my least favorite thing.
My favorite thing is you take really good care of me.
Oh, thanks.
All right.
And that's it, guys.
All right, cool.
With that said, thank you so much for watching.
We got to go.
