on on say it, though, Junior.

Speaker 2 (01:03):
We'll go ahead flurge on them.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
I guess my problem is is when I think you
expect it. Okay, when we sit down for dinner at
a restaurant and it's fifteen twenty of us, I think
I started. You know, I've been telling my wife, I said,
I think they expect this all the time. Ain't nobody
said I got by, I got me and my wife,
I got hours. Don't nobody say that. It's just past

(01:27):
that homelope down there at the time. They're not fitting
to say that either.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
No, they're not gonna do that because you're talking to
somebody speaking up right now.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
I can walk y'all through the whole process. But please
don't expect them to evers say it.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
They don't fix their lips or that.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
And it ain't fitting to come out. Don't don't. Don't.
Don't prepare your ears like what. No, because they didn't.
They didn't say it. They're not fitting to say it.
They ain't about to say it. Hello, were fitting pay
for everything thing. So what I do with my family
when I'm around them, I just treat them first class.
Y'all Just come on this to life here. It is welcome.

(02:09):
When y'all go home. You know, I take care of
my family.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
You know my brothers and sisters, they ain't gotta they
ain't gotta work. I caught here go, y'all's you know,
little summer every month, here you go. I love y'all.
I know I don't want y'all struggling a little little
baby brother doing good after that, that's it. M hm see.
But what I did was I had to do that
because I had to stop the constant requests fairness, air conditioning,

(02:39):
broh uh huh, I need ties. So they kept coming
to you this connection. Notice I went to the doctor.
Hold up, hold, hold up, hold, you gotta pay the
doctor bill. And you know it becomes a request from
two sisters and theft you, my nephew ain't never asked

(03:01):
me for two brothers, just the request. I'm trying to
fix my garage. Can you help me that? Dope? It's
this lot, and you see, I don't want to hear that.
So what I do is I just I got everybody
in a situation. Here we are this. Everybody got a
little payroll check coming from here. It is every month.

(03:25):
You know you gonna get that all y'all pensions, y'all
can keep your pensions that you done earned off your jobs,
retirement money and higge your little baby brother throwing it
a little bit more. Now, can you make it from there?
Because I feel as though you should. I really don't
see how we can't get now.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
That's cool because I think a lot of people that
are listening right now. You know they're the breadwinners of
their family and friends. This is a common problem that
you know everybody's dealing with. So it's cool to hear
from you, Steve. Well, you're rich enough where you can
put your family on your payroll.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
Now, look, most most people can't do that. But here's
what I suggest you do. Thank you. Here's what you do.
Work out a nominal amount of money or it's a
word minimal, I don't know what it is. Look, make
work out the small amount of money minimal that you
can afford that you know they gonna beg you out
of anyway.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
Mm hm.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
And just say, look, once a month, I'm gonna send
you a hundred hundred and fifty. Once a month, i'm
gonna send you two hundred whatever that number is, right, okay,
And just here you go, man, take care of yourself.
