04:18.53
Bruce Anthony

05:37.81
J. Aundrea
That's the thing they don't know we we we goons we goons from way back and um, you can't you can't do this and think we're not gonna get to the bottom of it.
05:49.31
Bruce Anthony
That's the reason why like so these internet trolls that say these things I'm like if you saw me in person you wouldn't because I can I can describe myself I can say I'm six four
05:55.59
J. Aundrea
Um, you would never.
06:05.38
Bruce Anthony
Anywhere between 2 thirty two hundred and forty pounds um of muscle I can say that but until I'm there until you see me in person you have no idea how big I am and I can rip an eyeball out like I I know I can.
06:08.70
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, right.
06:17.38
J. Aundrea
Right. So.
06:24.10
Bruce Anthony
So the idea that these people would would say these things It's like you wouldn't say these things if I was there and and right.
06:27.48
J. Aundrea
Yeah, you can You can only do it online and it's just like the people who did this to my house. You could only do an undercover of darkness like in in secret in the middle of the night like that's the only way that you could do. It is so cowardly and it's so pathetic.
06:35.47
Bruce Anthony
Like what why they can't do it anymore because you know.
06:45.93
J. Aundrea
No, because because my cameras even say when ah it's triggered. It'll go smile you're on camera. Yes, yes.
06:52.58
Bruce Anthony
Really, you know I would be playing with it when we get out there right? We I'm um I be playing with it. Ah.
07:03.38
J. Aundrea
I Usually have that feature off because I get a lot delivery So I don't want to scare the delivery people because I want them I don't want them just to throw my food and run away. You know. So so I do.
07:14.00
Bruce Anthony
Right? right? Yeah, and and I be getting alerts when um, when you ah because our Amazon's all connected. So that's reason why I texted you the day I like who's at your house this late at night
07:21.34
J. Aundrea
Yeah I was like we just getting delivered just door dashed. He yes.
07:29.33
Bruce Anthony
Just is just doing dash all my heart all alright well I was on a podcast people that may remember I had Dr Adrian Tri adrian Dr Adrian Trebunik um
07:40.31
J. Aundrea

08:24.19
Bruce Anthony
Yes, she loves you? Well everybody loves you everybody? Well everybody. That's not a toxic male loves you? Okay, everybody. That's not toxic male or racist.
08:37.22
J. Aundrea
Right? So that's half of America. Yeah.
08:43.70
Bruce Anthony
Loves you? That's actually more than half in America because men men comprise what in it 45% men are 45% of America.
08:54.48
J. Aundrea
Thought I was a I thought it was a little bit more than that I thought they were closer to forty Eight Forty Nine yeah because I know women are ah the majority.
09:00.40
Bruce Anthony
They're just under 50% right so so so take all the men out because all the men are toxic have toxic masculinity. Even I who is trying to evolve still call women.
09:15.40
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, and females. He just.
09:16.88
Bruce Anthony
Girls and and females and I'm like so just women just everybody but some women aren't women know and what I mean by that is they a little young acting and so they don't deserve the title of.
09:25.10
J. Aundrea
Women It's okay.
09:30.19
J. Aundrea
Some some so some women aren't grown but they're still women. Yeah because female when I hear people say man this how these females be.
09:35.68
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, they ain't grown women I mean Yes, okay yes, ah.
09:46.33
J. Aundrea
It's easily so you could easily substitute the B word for that.
09:49.84
Bruce Anthony
Okay, I'm not gonna tell you how to feel so that was interesting. That's your perspective and I respect that. Ah, what the what.
09:56.70
J. Aundrea
Yeah work I know good because I know what guys think they're like no I'm not saying now that's why I'm calling them females. You know So I don't disrespect her but it's the the implication is summer sometimes when you hear them talkg man. It's how females be it's.
10:06.78
Bruce Anthony
The implication. Yeah.
10:16.49
J. Aundrea
Clear that you could substitute that for bitch.
10:18.21
Bruce Anthony
Okay, we just gonna say the full word out here you you said to be word, but we just say yeah, is it whole bastard is in the bible but I don't think the be word is in the but you got me so nervous I.
10:24.74
J. Aundrea
It's in the bible I think I don't know. Yeah.
10:36.30
Bruce Anthony
The b word is literally my favorite cussw word. Other people's favorite cuw word is mf or f my favorite cuw word is the b word I say that so much one time I was at uva visited my boy and we was around his people and I I used to use the b word like at in every sentence and he was like yo. Stop saying that so much I was like wow, what's wrong this is like it just it's a lot of females around I was like oh I Don mean like that though, he's like just still and I was like oh yeah, you right? That's the only time he gave me. He gave me solid advice every other time.
11:06.44
J. Aundrea
D Not Matt oh yeah you write.
11:18.68
Bruce Anthony
That's how you got to carry it Sometimes you got to be like oh yeah, you write you know who I was listening to and I did not say oh yeah, you write.
11:20.23
J. Aundrea
Yeah, well.
11:27.40
J. Aundrea
Who.
11:30.16
Bruce Anthony
1 Elon Musk when he was being interviewed by Don Lemonade oh you know I got into a debate with somebody the other day and they were like Elon Mark Elon Musk is very intelligent and I was like okay maybe his iq is high.
11:32.40
J. Aundrea
Boy oh boy that was tense.
11:49.45
Bruce Anthony
He's an engineer. He's developed some stuff maybe his ah Iq is high What people don't take into account when they take into account intelligence is emotional intelligence. So when I incorporate emotional and social intelligence together. But maybe I shouldn't.
11:49.61
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
11:59.91
J. Aundrea
And social intelligence. Um, yeah, no.
12:06.21
Bruce Anthony
So maybe you're right on that one So emotional and social intelligence. He has neither. He is a but did you know what I found with a lot of engineers that's kind of how they think to them. Everything is numbers.
12:16.54
J. Aundrea
What's that.
12:22.21
J. Aundrea
Ah, yeah, no I get that. But there's still.. There's like I think there's still a level of like understanding like self-reflection understanding yourself. And then understanding how you can how to relate properly to people.
12:38.39
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, no most the majority of engineers that I know not saying all I said the majority of engineers that I know ladies and gentlemen the majority of engineers that I know which by the way ain't a small pool because it feels like it.
12:46.24
J. Aundrea
Right.
12:55.60
J. Aundrea
Um, why do you know so many engineers or or consultant.
12:57.54
Bruce Anthony
Feels like in DC you're either a lawyer or engineer who is also a lawyer or engineer so it so it's like you're when you're one of those 2 things so he he's talking about d I and and and.
13:04.33
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:15.14
Bruce Anthony
I swear I wouldn't go talk about race but I got to I feel like a lot of white people out there don't understand what D I means and the most important word in D I to me is inclusion.
13:23.15
J. Aundrea
M.
13:29.55
J. Aundrea
M.
13:32.98
Bruce Anthony
So Let me paint a picture for everybody out there. D I is like you move to an area and you heard about this great gym. But you don't really know where it is and you're not really. Good at working out because you never weirdly worked out before and somebody comes to your neighborhood and says you know what we've opened up our memberships to this neighborhood and we want to invite you in Well I don't know how to use the equipment.
13:52.38
J. Aundrea
M.
14:08.75
Bruce Anthony
We're going to show you how to use the equipment cause these people have already been using their equipment for a really long time so they know so we're going to include you into this and we're going to show you how to use the equipment. We're gonna walk you around the gym show you where everything is because all of our.
14:12.41
J. Aundrea
M.
14:18.93
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah.
14:26.83
Bruce Anthony
Old members know everything already right? So we're just gonna bring you in and show you where things are and show you how things work so that you can use it yourself. It's not the gym saying we gotta get out certain equipment here cause it's too advanced for certain people. That's not what it is.
14:44.24
J. Aundrea
Right.
14:46.44
Bruce Anthony
It is everybody. You can now use this gym and for all those people who are unfamiliar with their equipment or even how to exercise will give you a pathway to learn those skills. That's what it is. It is not.
14:57.38
J. Aundrea
M.
15:04.44
Bruce Anthony
Taking anything away from you unless unless right? So I so I was talking to a white friend of mine and and and I was explaining to them.
15:04.77
J. Aundrea
Right? You know unless you know your mediocre and if other people are given an opportunity then you will lose out.
15:23.65
Bruce Anthony
That and they swear that they pull themselves up by their bootstraps and I and I explained them explained it to him. No yes, you were broke in college you weren't poor. What's the difference. Well.
15:35.92
J. Aundrea
M.
15:41.35
Bruce Anthony
Broke is you don't have any money Poor is you and everybody around you doesn't have any money you always had the choice to go home. You chose to not live in your parents' house so because you wanted to be out on your own you have grown up responsibilities. You didn't have any money.
15:41.65
J. Aundrea
Right? right.
15:55.45
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yeah.
16:00.57
Bruce Anthony
But you weren't poor. You were broke. You always had a safety net to go back to certain people don't have that safety net to go back to you and I were fortunate. We were broke not poor. We were poor when we were younger but we were broke when we got to college us individually not the family us individually.
16:06.59
J. Aundrea
Now. Yeah.
16:16.60
J. Aundrea
In in.
16:20.18
Bruce Anthony
So I can I can look at that person and say bro you had your own room growing up when you was a little kid I didn't get my own room until I was twelve and a half almost thirteen. There's a difference there you was five years old just in your own room and you had 2 siblings you was five years old in your own room.
16:31.41
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
16:38.27
J. Aundrea
Bright.
16:39.19
Bruce Anthony
That's not poor. So the idea that you pulled yourself up by your bootstraps. No why had it's the same It's not the same because you have a lineage you can go back and know every single one of your grandparents your great grandparents your great. Great grandparents. And guess what none of them were restricted to earn a living which tells me that if you're 4 generations in and your family is struggling. That's on you because I could tell you what my family is 1 generation in of having all of their rights and we doing damn well so maybe.
17:10.16
J. Aundrea
Right doing just fine.
17:16.43
Bruce Anthony
Your family is just mediocre and the spots that you lose is because you weren't good enough to have them in the first place if everybody was included.
17:21.96
J. Aundrea
But the but what white privilege tells you is that you are entitled to those spots on the strength of just who you are.
17:30.47
Bruce Anthony
Well history tells them history teaches that they're better than right? like we discovered America no, you didn't people already here. Well we westernized it and made it better. No, you don't know that you don't know that.
17:36.26
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah.
17:44.44
J. Aundrea
No, you don't know that because because the the nation that we were it. Never even got to come to fruition you cut it off so you don't know.
17:49.46
Bruce Anthony
You You expanded it to other people. But maybe sometimes like.
17:57.58
Bruce Anthony
Ah, right? and maybe and maybe maybe yes you opened it up to the rest of the world. But maybe the people that were here didn't want to open up to the rest of the world say we got it good I like to be in my place by myself I don't open up my home to everybody. Everybody can't come in.
18:15.58
J. Aundrea
Yeah, my house is Waconda You ain't getting there unless you got that tattoo on your lip.
18:17.43
Bruce Anthony
People just kick I'm knocking a door other people right? your house is That's not the but other people are like hey I'm home come on in knock at my door anytime some people are welcoming. So.
18:32.25
J. Aundrea
The middle.
18:36.48
Bruce Anthony
People that get colonized America wanted to be welcoming. Okay, cool, but that doesn't mean that the people that were here weren't advanced and and then you could say to yourself. Well we took the land from them. So the ring is we're superior. No they came in and was like hey man this is how we do farm and this is what we do here. We we trying to open up. Door you know befriend yo colonize and ass was this is like no, we're gonna take everything. It's a different mindset that doesn't make you better that makes you more evil and I'm not saying this all those people out there. They're gonna be like you calling white people. Evil no calling colonize is evil.
18:58.87
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
19:11.77
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
19:14.60
Bruce Anthony
That's what I'm saying. But but so to this idea has been taught in history that they are better than so why would you write and and why would you think anything.
19:19.88
J. Aundrea
Yeah. Well because history is written by the winners.
19:31.95
J. Aundrea
Yeah, because is what you've been taught.
19:32.42
Bruce Anthony
Other than that we're been taught as Americans no matter what our nationality ethnicity is that we are better than we are the greatest nation in the world. We are the most powerful nobody can test us. We now know that that's not necessarily the case.
19:46.97
J. Aundrea
Right? yes.
19:51.91
Bruce Anthony
Our military is strong but we'd lost some wars so um and if you don't believe me the Vietnam conflict which technically was never really a war was never designated as a war by congress.
20:07.59
J. Aundrea
Um, except it was a war. Yeah, yeah, yeah, we did because as dad says they were in.
20:08.94
Bruce Anthony
So it's really the Vietnam conflict but it was a war because people lost their lives and died. We lost that.
20:23.16
J. Aundrea
The trees with nikes and pistols and we were not prepared yes and we were not prepared. We we came in there for teas and huge packs on the jungle.
20:24.33
Bruce Anthony
Said Mikey's and pistols dead is a fool and oh.
20:39.12
J. Aundrea
And they knew where they they knew the jungle like the back of a hand like every we we got in there with some we went in there with hubris.
20:44.98
Bruce Anthony
Well we tried to. We thought that we could go into somebody's home and go push them around and some people no matter how small you think they are are going to defend. What's theirs to their death. But this whole discussion started with Elon Musk and Don lemon.
20:50.00
J. Aundrea
Oh.
20:55.93
J. Aundrea
E. Yes, Don I thought Don did a great job of staying on him. You know, depending on which news organization you watch either.
21:11.60
Bruce Anthony
Right? Or who you support what what side of the fence that you're on.
21:16.70
J. Aundrea
Right? either. It was either. The headline is elon's brutal takedown of Don Lemon or the headline is Don Lemon's brutal takedown of Elon Musk so ah who do I think one fight Don because.
21:23.17
Bruce Anthony
And.
21:34.20
J. Aundrea
Ah, he had you on on the ropes the whole the whole interview. Um, there was a lot of him and and hawn a lot of I don't have to I don't have to answer I'm only answering this because you're on my platform and and then you know for 24 hours later for him to get a text that his contract is canceled.
21:48.97
Bruce Anthony
Well not well just it wouldn't be his show wasn't canceled it just wouldn't be on X and I was like okay, whatever you don't like tough questions the man that's all for free speech can't answer questions.
21:54.20
J. Aundrea
On X yeah.
22:01.80
J. Aundrea
Yeah, because he's also thin skinned so he can't handle questions about him about things that he like the Ketamine use he put that out there. So I'm just you.
22:05.87
Bruce Anthony
Oh yeah.
22:12.90
Bruce Anthony
Right? He's like that's personal. Yeah, you personally put that out there. Yeah, that's that's you you and last I checked Twitter is public both figuratively and literally it's a publicly traded company. You put it out there like that that's on you i'm.
22:18.57
J. Aundrea
You tweeted about it. So yeah, he yeah yeah, you yeah.
22:31.70
Bruce Anthony
I'm a journalist you put it out there I want to ask you about it because you're in control of this huge social media platform that is influencing well the space program you know and an internet program because he was providing internet to Ukraine and then pulled it I think that's what happened don't qui you know what.
22:36.31
J. Aundrea
And a space program.
22:46.66
J. Aundrea
A.
22:51.33
Bruce Anthony
Let me just take that all back I don't remember the particulars but I know he was providing something. Maybe he stopped providing it I thought Don actually pulled a lot of punches I thought because as I'm watching it I'm like well no, he's it's not trying to be gotcha. It's trying to be.
22:52.56
J. Aundrea
Right.
23:00.94
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
23:07.97
J. Aundrea
Oh.
23:11.29
Bruce Anthony
Somebody who does interviews nowhere near as well as Don lemon. But if somebody does interviews when somebody says something you're like okay when you open the door for this one. Let's go down here what we know now. Well you said this so back this up right.
23:20.71
J. Aundrea
Um, you're right.
23:26.99
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
23:30.40
Bruce Anthony
You're against D I explain to me what it is Well there's no evidence to what you're saying Well, that's what I believe then you can't espouse it as its fact just because you believe it um tell tell me give me the definition of woke.
23:41.15
J. Aundrea
Right? right. Right.
23:49.72
Bruce Anthony
But just mean where ah you can't give me the definition of what are you fighting against.
23:53.32
J. Aundrea
Because they know that the definition of woke is not something that you can argue with.
23:59.95
Bruce Anthony
A a.
24:03.55
J. Aundrea
And so if they actually gave the definition of woke which of course is to not just to be awake and aware but to be alert and to be activated against discrimination.
24:19.18
Bruce Anthony
Um, right.
24:21.87
J. Aundrea
That is what it means itmes not just to be against racism but to be actively anti-racist um the moment you say that Well I'm against people being actively anti-racist. You can't say that.
24:27.59
Bruce Anthony
Who.
24:37.39
Bruce Anthony
No, you can't You can't say that.
24:39.80
J. Aundrea
Yeah, so they're trying to turn woke into something else. But when they're asked to define it. They can't they can't because they know that the actual definition of woke.
24:49.32
Bruce Anthony
Can't do it.
24:55.24
J. Aundrea
Which is to just be actively Anti-racist is not something you can argue against in this day and age.
25:02.55
Bruce Anthony
And then another thing that he said and then we'll stop attacking elon musk because this won't play on Twitter or x whatever's called is ah that I think we just need to stop talking about racism that will end racism now that's not how that works and and it.
25:15.91
J. Aundrea
No oh you sound very apartheid staff african.
25:22.37
Bruce Anthony
And now and I've had this conversation because in the Apartheid South African We don't want to. We don't want to get into that. But um I had a conversation one time years ago with an older white friend of mine that's around mom and dad's age. They're in their mid sixty s.
25:41.91
J. Aundrea
Um.
25:42.16
Bruce Anthony
And they were all against Colen Kaeper at taking a knee and and and I was like what are you against it was not supporting it. You know it suggests our military. Well he actually talked to a military person military person was like I don't completely agree with what you're doing here. But if you still want to honor the military and this is this is what you do so he went out. He searched out to do that. So your argument is flawed from that standpoint.
26:02.10
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, right? and there are several people who are who are in the military who said our job is to fight for your right to express yourself the way that you want for you to have the freedom of expression in this country.
26:18.57
Bruce Anthony
Right? So so she was like why can't We just talk and I was like okay so you have a resource here. You have a friend who is black that is grown up in every social economical. Um.
26:19.80
J. Aundrea
That's what we're fighting for.
26:35.43
Bruce Anthony
Category in this country Besides Rich um I've experienced everything from different nationalities and been in white spaces and I've accomplished a whole lot. Plus I'm an Historian so you have a resource but instead of asking me what about this and that.
26:36.50
J. Aundrea
Right.
26:42.84
J. Aundrea
ME.
26:53.64
J. Aundrea
Right now.
26:53.98
Bruce Anthony
You try to pontificate and I said you don't want to have a conversation What you what you want to do is not have a conversation because the conversation makes you feel uncomfortable and I'm not here for your comfort because you ignore and it gives me discomfort.
27:03.91
J. Aundrea
M.
27:10.47
J. Aundrea
Right? right.
27:13.91
Bruce Anthony
So what are we talking about here. Well I didn't think about it like that nobody thinks about it like that because you guys don't have to and if you want to have a conversation I don't know about any conversations that are tough conversations that are uncomfortable and guess what uncomfortable conversations is where you had them.
27:22.56
J. Aundrea
Ah.
27:30.74
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, that's what makes them tough. Yeah.
27:33.80
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, an uncomfortable conversation is what gives you growth and evolution in life. So when he said that I it' like oh I don't even know why there's There's no reason to talk to this guy. He doesn't want to listen. He feels like he's right. He's being magnified by.
27:42.99
J. Aundrea
Now.
27:50.23
Bruce Anthony
The followers on Twitter saying and he's right, there's no point like he's gonna be that way to the data he dies unless something dramatic happens to him in his personal life. That's just gonna be who he is so for those type of people I just walk away from.
27:51.62
J. Aundrea
M.
27:57.50
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
28:02.65
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
28:07.47
Bruce Anthony
Um, like okay, you don't want to learn I'm not going to entertain this back and forth. You are who you are cool I just know not to rock what you like that. It just sucks when they have and are the leader of a major social media platform that influences culture not our culture. Well yeah, our culture because we got black Twitter.
28:10.10
J. Aundrea
N.
28:18.74
J. Aundrea
Right? right. Yeah, we never.. We're not letting that go. We're not letting that go. That's that's that's our platform to be ourselves.
28:26.30
Bruce Anthony
We still on black Twitter. Oh.
28:37.48
J. Aundrea
And we are hilarious.
28:38.82
Bruce Anthony
Ah, and I love me some us. Yes, we are. We are absolutely hilared, not us in general but ah, but us us too in general but we're talking about black people as a whole but else us too us us black people as well are like.
28:47.82
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, black people are hilarious. Yeah I mean we got fight that hard for it I don't know.
28:55.40
Bruce Anthony
Ah, all right on. That note, we're gonna end the segment here and then we're gonna talk about why it is so tough to live in a major city that's up next.
29:16.95
Bruce Anthony
So Jay you send me this article. It's from Cnbc's written by Mike Winters it's the title of the article is the salary a single person needs to live comfortably in the 25 major Us cities um, I'm gonna let you take the lead on this one but I thought it was really interesting when you sent it to me.
29:38.52
J. Aundrea
Yeah, so um I the only reason why I thought it was interesting is because one of the top Twenty five u s like major cities is Arlington Virginia it's number 11 Yeah.
29:51.94
Bruce Anthony
Um, eleventh the eleventh. Yes.
29:56.90
J. Aundrea
Um, so this article First of all, this is these salaries are if you are employed with no debt. Okay, because the way they define.
30:13.95
Bruce Anthony
Um.
30:15.31
Bruce Anthony
E.
30:15.44
J. Aundrea
Living comfortably or comfortable follows a fifty thirty twenty budget so what the fifty thirty Twenty budget is is 50% of your monthly income can pay for necessities like housing and utility costs.
30:21.17
Bruce Anthony
King.
30:32.16
J. Aundrea
30% can cover discretionary spending and 20% can be set aside for savings and investments I don't know any single person in the United States America who could put 20% other monthly income aside for savings and investments.
30:39.90
Bruce Anthony
A.
30:50.72
J. Aundrea
And 30 to cover discretionaries. But listen I got debt student loan debt credit card debt. Okay I like where you talking ah a firm plantlarna I oh okay, okay after pay.
30:53.73
Bruce Anthony
Affirm Debt Quad Paid debt you
31:09.42
J. Aundrea
It's on there. Okay I've got them all like this is I even and even if you live this way I don't know anybody my a 2 does. But if you do live this way and you actually graduated college with no debt and.
31:11.92
Bruce Anthony
If.
31:28.43
J. Aundrea
Got a good job where you're making 6 figures good on you. You're a unicorn and you should feel you should play the lotto because how that's insane.
31:33.85
Bruce Anthony
I Actually know a few people like that I know a few people that live in this area. They had no college debt because their parents paid for their college so they had no college debt. They had no credit card debt.
31:52.90
J. Aundrea
Um, ah ah.
31:52.53
Bruce Anthony
Um, and the the only debt they have is for property that they own and so they so they good. But you know that's a generational thing. Their parents had money so they made sure that their kids didn't have debt when they got out of college.
31:56.89
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
32:02.64
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
32:12.21
Bruce Anthony
Not everybody has that opportunity.
32:14.34
J. Aundrea
Right? So the um twenty five US cities with the highest cost of living obviously top in the list is New York City you to in order to live comfortably as a single person in New York city
32:21.45
Bruce Anthony
New York City is
32:30.50
J. Aundrea
You have to make one hundred and thirty eight thousand five hundred and seventy dollars annually and it's like okay, but where in New York City like am I in Manhattan probably not am I on Washington Heights who are some parts of Brooklyn maybe like.
32:35.39
Bruce Anthony
A.
32:42.32
Bruce Anthony
M. Now you and queens in the neighborhood that a king came from when he was coming to America that's that's where you are because what they said in the article is is that they pay higher salaries in these major cities but that.
32:49.85
J. Aundrea
Where yeah, right? exactly because what. Yes, they have to.
33:06.90
Bruce Anthony
But that doesn't really cover the cost of that 50% model that they're talking about housing which by the way discretionary spending housing and utilities is like cable and internet considered utilities. What about your cell phone is that discretionary spending.
33:11.29
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
33:24.65
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
33:26.57
Bruce Anthony
Is that supposed to be part of your that 50% budget because I would tell you right now isn't that 50% budget for me.
33:31.76
J. Aundrea
Well here's the thing that when they talk about the fifty thirty twenty budgeting it's a little hyperlink and if you click on it. There is another article by Ryan Irmy that's that's titled money experts swear by this classic.
33:40.32
Bruce Anthony
The.
33:50.67
J. Aundrea
Budgeting rule but most americans can't afford it. Yeah, they they cannot okay I I get it I but I don't know what? so it says okay 50% of your taxable income to living expenses such as housing and transportation.
33:52.91
Bruce Anthony
Yeah, no.
34:09.59
J. Aundrea
20% to savings goals 30% to everything else is essentially so the discretionary spend is everything else falls in that bucket. So your groceries your cell phone. Everything else falls into that bucket.
34:12.40
Bruce Anthony
Okay.
34:21.91
Bruce Anthony
So Arlington Virginia where I live is rated number eleventh and it says you need to make a hundred ah roughly one hundred and eighteen thousand single person needs to make 118000 and to be able to do this fifty thirty Twenty rule and must not have any debt.
34:39.42
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah.
34:40.49
Bruce Anthony
I Know people who make double that single people that make double that and still complaining about they are broke because you know why it's really expensive to live here. It is really.
34:46.75
J. Aundrea
Um, yeah, yeah.
34:56.44
Bruce Anthony
When I was planning on moving to Hawaii right? below Arlington but here's the thing it's below Arlington so when I was planning to move to Hawaii everybody was like it's so expensive in Hawaii I said I live in Arlington Virginia
35:00.60
J. Aundrea
Hoda Lulu is also on the list is number 16 Yes.
35:12.32
J. Aundrea
M.
35:14.45
Bruce Anthony
It's actually going to be a decrease for me living out there really? Yes, it is cheaper. It is cheaper for me to live in Hawaii than than there is live in Arlington. So yes, it is look this was funny.
35:18.37
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
35:29.42
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
35:31.94
Bruce Anthony
And it's also the reason why I said I'm ready to go ahead and settle down just for the financial reasons I'm ready to go ahead and boo up just for the financial reasons.
35:36.78
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, well Atlanta is also on the list is number 21 yes is number 21 apparently you have to make 107400
35:45.69
Bruce Anthony
It is okay I didn't know.
35:55.79
J. Aundrea
And $53 and listen I don't make that I was a year got to know what I do ba but I help who' scratching a survivor. Okay, but.
36:02.53
Bruce Anthony
Don't put your personal business out there like that is not not the good, not the good, not good times themes to to.
36:14.10
J. Aundrea
But hang it in a chow line. Okay, good times, easy credit rip offs good times.

Bruce Anthony
Temporary layoffs good times. Easy credit rip off which by the way so I always like to kick the can down the road in almost everything in my life I'm King of procrastination case in point.

47:56.42
Bruce Anthony
So a little backstory about Jake Paul he started his career as a youtuber and turned professional boxing about four years ago he was a big big Youtube youtuber and he parlayed that he won the box. He parlayed his name and recognition. And to turning into a boxer starting his own promotion thing and he's getting money. That's 1 thing he's doing he is getting money these these gen z boy I tell you they know how to get that money right? He's won nine out of his 10 fights. 6 of them were knockouts.
48:19.50
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
48:28.86
Bruce Anthony
He's in fought Some there's been a lot of Mma people Mma people are mixed martial arts. They're not boxers. There's a difference between boxing and mixed martial artists and.
48:30.90
J. Aundrea
M.
48:38.62
J. Aundrea
And that's I thought Jake Paul was an mma fighter because he kept fighting. Yeah, right.
48:43.17
Bruce Anthony
No no, he's not a may fighter fighting MMma not yeah no he he was and he was fighting past a prom MMma fighters that were that had name but were passed. They prom kind of like Mike Tyson people passed their prom that had name value that he could generate money off of.
48:56.00
J. Aundrea
And.
49:01.24
Bruce Anthony
He lost to Tommy Fury Tyson's fury Tyson fury is um is the best pound for pound fighter. Well not pound for pound but the best heavyweight right now his younger brother. So so think Ivan Drygo is younger brother all right? He lost to him.
49:13.98
J. Aundrea
Um, man.
49:16.91
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
49:21.11
Bruce Anthony
And that's his only loss now we know Mike Mike is the greatest heavyweight arguably of all time he was the best in his prime which was like from 85 to 1990 um he's won over 50 fights 44 by knockout.
49:26.37
J. Aundrea
Yeah.
49:38.21
J. Aundrea
You couldn't blink because if you did the fight was over.
49:40.10
Bruce Anthony
He's got some losses right? because the fight was over mike did a lot of it was a lot of people that pay for fights that paid big money because pay per view $50 in 1989 was a lot of money.
49:49.17
J. Aundrea
Yes, it was a lot. Yeah, you literally invited everybody over because you do you had to recoup that somehow. Yes.
49:58.74
Bruce Anthony
Yes, there's a whole episode of Martin paying to get Mike Tyson fight charge people to come to the fight and Mike Tyson knocked to do it out where he in the back room all right.
50:09.27
J. Aundrea
Yeah, yes, bright.
50:16.33
Bruce Anthony
But Mike is 57 years old but Mike Looks great Mike looks better than I look and I'm a lot younger than him and he is. He looks great, but he's also fifty seven years old but he's also.
50:20.78
J. Aundrea
He does? Yeah yeah I don't know about that. But okay, right.
50:35.74
Bruce Anthony
1 of the greatest boxers of all time and Jay Paul is trying to be a buy is trying to be a boxer Jake Paul J Paul been boxing 4 years right that's not that's i' I'm him in and hall and because that's not a lot of time right to be.
50:36.19
J. Aundrea
I would be nervous. Yeah.
50:54.49
Bruce Anthony
Boxing and to think you gonna fight even if really old Mike Tason but you know what once again Mike Tyson is really old the betting arts are for Mike Tyson I would not be surprised if Jake Paul Wins just because youth always beats age.
51:02.29
J. Aundrea
And.
51:10.32
J. Aundrea
No I think I think experience beats is let me tell you some right now. Okay I was alive where Mike Tyson was just knocking.
51:12.35
Bruce Anthony
Father time ain't that much expense look that's that's a lot of experience. 58 years old

J. Aundrea
Folks out I'm not getting in a ring with Mike Tys I don't care how old he is.
51:36.41
Bruce Anthony
Wait a minute hold on. There's a number in which you would fight Mike Tyson
51:42.89
J. Aundrea
Because I'm worried that it that I might not survive because there's such a thing as old man strength and I don't want Mike Tyson's strength to then transition to old man strength and he just hold he.
51:47.18
Bruce Anthony
Um, that you might not survive. Yeah.
52:02.12
J. Aundrea
Hike up his pants haul off and punch me in the face. Okay, with that old man straight? No, it's still Mike Tyson I can no.
