they finished that. Dang.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
We held hand running in together and they were first
in their age group. Uh huh, but they probably the
only one in the age group because they're the only
ones that are doing it at that age.

Speaker 1 (07:25):
If I was running like we beat every we only
beat one person. It was a slow DJ. I think

but we still got a long way to go. So
if you want to find out ways that you can
help out, go to babydj dot org. Speaking of Christmas, man,
what do the people want?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
According to a new survey, they want cash money really, yeah,
sixty percent of people said they want cash over gifts.
I'm not surprised by that same here. Yeah, what shocked
me was the amount of money they want. Okay, what's
they say? The average person hopes for just over six
hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, I'm thinking collectively, maybe collectively maybe, but even then, like,
I can't even think of it, but who would add up?
Speaker 5 (08:43):
And I'm thinking of my own personal situation, so I'll
apply it to my son. I can't think of enough
people combined that would get him to six hundred and
twenty dollars. But the average person is saying that's what
they hope to get. Wow, yeah, my kid. We set
out about about a month ago. I'm like, hey, listen,
you know you haven't mentioned or said anything that you want.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
What do you want? He goes, well, I got everything
I want. I'm like, but I gotta give you something
because it looks bad on me, right, So you need
you need to tell something. He goes, how about cash? Okay,
I'll give you cash. Okay, So I'm gonnaive him cash.
I can't say on the air because then he would
know how much cash. Yeah, he's gonna get. But yeah,
twenty dollars no no, no, no, no, no no no,
(09:23):
but yeah it'll be it'll it'll be cash. But I'm
go buy him like some sneakers or something to put
in some stunt boxes under the tree. But yeah, I
just feel bad because to me, you know, when I
was growing up, it was never a cash It was
it was a gift.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
You may get a.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Certificate here or there, but never cash cash. I just
think that's the easy way out. It worked for me
because I got a lot of stuff going on. I
would have never suggested it. I would have taken a
day to gone out and did what I had to do.
I procrastinate, so it probably been you know, but I
would have gotten it. But now it's just like cash.
I feel like cash is like but you back in
the day, at least get to your extended family, get
(09:59):
a card and you put twenty bucks in it.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Or whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah. Yeah, so I'm thinking about maybe I should get
him the cash and like one dollar bills so when
he gets it looks like a static. Yeah, right, would
you give out cash?
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I only do like for you know, like my nephew
and stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah, but like for my own kids.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Get new six hundred and how much six on twenty bucks?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
No, I would not.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
I can't imagine anyone literally thinks they're going to get
six hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
That's what I'm thinking. It has to be. It has
to be collectively, you know. But even like I said,
even still, gosh, I think you're getting that. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I mean, like I said, we we didn't come up
from much. But I can't imagine a scenario with six
hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Is what is like?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
My grandparents as I got older, spoiled me. And when
I say spoiled, like one hundred dollars was Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
The only year my son got close was the year
I got him his Xbox and that's because the Xbox
was four hundred and something bucks. Yeah, but he didn't
get anything else. He got a bunch of like little
like wrestling auction figures. That's the only year I ever
got close in his life to six hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
We had some It's like my mom had an aunt
that lived in the country country of North Carolina, which
meant that they had a house and there was another
another house near theirs for like a mile, and they
were filthy rich, big old mansion that you could tell
that wasn't taken care of, and they probably had eighty
percent of the rooms that hadn't been no one ever
stepped in in years. And we go visit and my
mom was like, like, you know, they like you guys
(11:22):
a lot. They'll need some cash, right, So at the
end of it say, well come here, baby, I'm like,
all right, here we go for about to get paid.
But I think because how old they were, they forgot
the value of a dollar.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Yeah, Like, all here we go. Here's for you two
dollars shop at two dollars and go down and get yourself.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
I got five dollars and go down and get yourself.
Assassin France.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I'm young, but I know right now with the land
that y'all own in this house is about about a
million halfs man, you don't have the property taxes. Property
taxes are killing. I really do think they forgot the
value of money. But I got two dollars and they
were smiling, yeah, like they were excited about it. My
grandma used to do that with those like saver books.
Give me a Lifesavering book and be like look, and

Speaker 9 (15:34):
It's beneficial that I work in a bank, so I

four months before Christmas, I like save them, and then
we make these beautiful boxes with beautiful ribbon, and then
you and I take like single dollar bills, like one
hundred of them together. We have a different We have
(15:54):
engineered this perfectly. I think this will be our fourth
year doing it at the branch. So we say pull
the ribbon and out comes, you know, the one dollar bill,
one at a time.
Speaker 4 (16:03):
Okay, and you get to keep it, so I can
walk away with two dollars I make.
Speaker 9 (16:08):
I make these for my kids. I have adult children

taping them bills together.

grandson who was four last year and he made his
little Christmas money box of twenty five dollars. But it

That's nice. They finished dead last, that's okay. They said
they finished that. Dang.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
We held hand running in together and they were first
in their age group. Uh huh, but they probably the
only one in the age group because they're the only
ones that are doing it at that age.
Speaker 3 (07:24):

Speaker 1 (07:25):
If I was running like we beat every we only
beat one person. It was a slow DJ. I think

if you want to find out ways that you can
help out, go to babydj dot org. Speaking of Christmas, man,
what do the people want?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
According to a new survey, they want cash money really, yeah,
sixty percent of people said they want cash over gifts.
I'm not surprised by that same here. Yeah, what shocked
me was the amount of money they want. Okay, what's
they say? The average person hopes for just over six
hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Okay, I'm thinking collectively, maybe collectively maybe, but even then, like,
I can't even think of it, but who would add up?
Speaker 5 (08:43):
And I'm thinking of my own personal situation, so I'll
apply it to my son. I can't think of enough
people combined that would get him to six hundred and
twenty dollars. But the average person is saying that's what
they hope to get. Wow, yeah, my kid. We set
out about about a month ago. I'm like, hey, listen,
you know you haven't mentioned or said anything that you want.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
What do you want? He goes, well, I got everything
I want. I'm like, but I gotta give you something
because it looks bad on me, right, So you need
you need to tell something. He goes, how about cash? Okay,
I'll give you cash. Okay, So I'm gonnaive him cash.
I can't say on the air because then he would
know how much cash. Yeah, he's gonna get. But yeah,
twenty dollars no no, no, no, no, no no no,
(09:23):
but yeah it'll be it'll it'll be cash. But I'm
go buy him like some sneakers or something to put
in some stunt boxes under the tree. But yeah, I
just feel bad because to me, you know, when I
was growing up, it was never a cash It was
it was a gift.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
You may get a.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
Certificate here or there, but never cash cash. I just
think that's the easy way out. It worked for me
because I got a lot of stuff going on. I
would have never suggested it. I would have taken a
day to gone out and did what I had to do.
I procrastinate, so it probably been you know, but I
would have gotten it. But now it's just like cash.
I feel like cash is like but you back in
the day, at least get to your extended family, get
(09:59):
a card and you put twenty bucks in it.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Or whatever it is.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
Yeah. Yeah, so I'm thinking about maybe I should get
him the cash and like one dollar bills so when
he gets it looks like a static. Yeah, right, would
you give out cash?
Speaker 2 (10:12):
I only do like for you know, like my nephew
and stuff like that.
Speaker 3 (10:16):
Yeah, but like for my own kids.
Speaker 4 (10:18):
Get new six hundred and how much six on twenty bucks?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
No, I would not.
Speaker 5 (10:23):
I can't imagine anyone literally thinks they're going to get
six hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
That's what I'm thinking. It has to be. It has
to be collectively, you know. But even like I said,
even still, gosh, I think you're getting that. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (10:35):
I mean, like I said, we we didn't come up
from much. But I can't imagine a scenario with six
hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:40):
Is what is like?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
My grandparents as I got older, spoiled me. And when
I say spoiled, like one hundred dollars was Yeah.
Speaker 5 (10:48):
The only year my son got close was the year
I got him his Xbox and that's because the Xbox
was four hundred and something bucks. Yeah, but he didn't
get anything else. He got a bunch of like little
like wrestling auction figures. That's the only year I ever
got close in his life to six hundred and twenty dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
We had some It's like my mom had an aunt
that lived in the country country of North Carolina, which
meant that they had a house and there was another
another house near theirs for like a mile, and they
were filthy rich, big old mansion that you could tell
that wasn't taken care of, and they probably had eighty
percent of the rooms that hadn't been no one ever
stepped in in years. And we go visit and my
mom was like, like, you know, they like you guys
(11:22):
a lot. They'll need some cash, right, So at the
end of it say, well come here, baby, I'm like,
all right, here we go for about to get paid.
But I think because how old they were, they forgot
the value of a dollar.
Speaker 4 (11:32):
Yeah, Like, all here we go. Here's for you two
dollars shop at two dollars and go down and get yourself.
Speaker 5 (11:40):
I got five dollars and go down and get yourself.
Assassin France.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
I'm young, but I know right now with the land
that y'all own in this house is about about a
million halfs man, you don't have the property taxes. Property
taxes are killing. I really do think they forgot the
value of money. But I got two dollars and they
were smiling, yeah, like they were excited about it. My
grandma used to do that with those like saver books.
Give me a Lifesavering book and be like look, and
