Oh, so this will not be posted till eleven am.
No oh, I was going to keep it a secret,
but now I can freely express myself.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
I wanted to make sure everybody knew the man was
coming because by contractual agreement where we're not allowed to
post this until now, Cody Johnson is coming to the
Colonial Life Arena.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
And it's m em okay, just making sure European is

Speaker 1 (01:06):
But in America is em all right? So we're going
to do that tomorrow morning. Get six thirty. All you
need now is the answer to the question what you're
talking about. For you to be the first person, the
very first person, to win the first tickets before you
can buy them.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Nobody else has these tickets yet, so you'll be the
first person.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Tody himself.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Tody can't even get into the concert yet, not.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Till promoters say so.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
The clicks for ticks. Word of the day for what
you're talking about is winkle w I n k l E.
The answer is to pry out or extract something. You're
going to try to winkle us out of tickets tomorrow morning.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And you will, in fact be successful if you're the
correct phone caller with that answer.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
We don't know the number yet.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
You don't even need a crowbar.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
No, no, no, We just hang them over freely. We
don't force you to do anything other than answer the question,
what does the word winkle mean? To pry out or
extract something?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Now? Tomorrow is SAHT so happy? It's Thursday, getting ready
for high school football. We got tomorrow night Fireflies first
playoff game, history making event. We've already given away tickets
for that night. We've already given away tickets for Friday night.
We got game Cocks and Tigers all geared up for Saturday. Well,
(02:25):
our game is it seven?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Very late. I'm not happy about that. I much prefer
a seven p kick, and if they if there was
an option of a six P kick, I would take that.
But you know, I like night games, I just don't
like them too late at night.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
I'm gonna be doing this one my favorite way to
do it. I'm gonna be going over I don't know
what time for tailgating. And when I say tailgating, that
I mean I set up a big tailgate. That means
I part my court and I walk around from tailgate
to tail okate.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Just steal food from everybody, right, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I just walk around and friends that go, hey, Jonathan Nugger,
there you go, here's my next pist. Get right there.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Well, you're going to have a big Friday or Saturday,
there's no question about that.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
So then, but you can't leave to go home until
like twenty minutes before kickoff because that's when the traffic
dies down. So I can get back home in about
twelve minutes.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well, it didn't die down last week. That was a nightmare.
I called it a night at like seven thirty eight
o'clockish and we still took like an hour to get home.
Oh anyway, if you're a high school student or the
parent of a high school student, quite likely you are
trying to consider career paths right now. If you go
(03:36):
to the Morning Rest blog, we have just posted what
the Labor Department estimates will be the ten fastest growing
jobs in the next ten years.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I said this conversation the other day in the bank
with one of my favorite branch managers. Her name is Patrese.
She was telling me that her son, Caleb is now
at a club for after school activities as he studying robotics.
I'm gonna guess that's high on the list.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Not the phrase robotics. Number one is physician assistant.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh yeah, yeah, I got two of those upcoming.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Median wage on that is one hundred and thirty four
thousand dollars a year. That is a fantastic job to
be a physician's assistance. But how about an actuary that's
a one hundred and twenty six thousand dollars position, physical
therapist assistant. An assistant makes seventy g's Medical and health
(04:37):
service managers.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Are you know anything about King Brand being a pa,
I mean a physical therapist assistant. You said you don't
have to travel far to get to work. Have you
noticed how many physical therapy places there are in Colombia
now everybody needs them. I mean they got more. We
got more than we have convenience stores. I mean they
(04:59):
were everywhere.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
We're in there, Like with car washes. Yes, we almost
got as many physical therapists as car washes. Yes, there
are some jobs that are kind of I've never heard
of wind turbine service tech. Now that's only going to
start you off, or the median annual wages only going
to be sixty three thousand dollars a year. I mean,
(05:21):
I don't know why people would be flocking towards that job.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
You can't be afraid. I'll tell you that you make.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
More as an HVAC repair person than you do a
wind turbine service tech, Solar photovolot volta voltank, I don't
even have to say that word, Taiic, whatever that word is.
That's what they're talking about with solar photo voultech installers.
(05:49):
That makes a paltry fifty two grand a year.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I like data scientists. I don't know what a scientist
does with data. But if you get that job one
hundred and twenty two thousand dollars a year, okay, information
security analysts, that's one thirty four a year.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Who he bore those?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So there's I mean, there's some traditional jobs, there's some
new jobs in there. But you know, like we've talked
in the past, if you believe that like AI is
going to take everybody's jobs, like a lot of people say,
they're gonna be anybody working. By the way, our new
corporate training that we got that I did it yesterday.
You have to do it here before Friday.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
That's next Friday, the nineteenth. They can on my calendar
do it on the eighteenth.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
That is an AI voice now, which is weird because
they'd used the same voice of a female for like
the last seven years. I really hasn't updated. There's been
like maybe one or two slides that have been updated.
But this year they decided to boot her and have
the place with AI. And you tell it's AI because
he doesn't mispronounced words, but he miss what's the what's
(06:59):
the word? I'm mis emphasizes words. You know, I heart
radio the uh.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
But anyway, they're telegraphing the fact that we won't be needed.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Well, if you believe that, if you believe AI is
taking your job and all these other jobs.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I can want to tell you that so far that
has not been exactly the case. If by chance, you
goes to our national web page as an advertiser, you
want to advertise you're a small business owner. You go
to the national web page, you won't be linked up
to anybody here locally in Colombia. You'll be linked with
a national sales office and they can give you a
Jonathan Rush type voice without it being Jonathan Rush.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I heard mine the other day. It's kind of creepy,
the Kelly Nash reading. If Kelly Nash was to do
your endorsement, this might be what it sounds like. And
I was like, are you flipping kidding me? I would
never do it that crappy.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, it was so bad. Even the client called up
and said, hey, they gave me the virtual you, but
I want the you. How do I get to you?
I said, you got to talk to the sales somebody.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Well, they've only had a for like two years.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
You got to get out of that office and get
to the local office. So if you're a local advertiser,
call the local number.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
There's no question that AI is capable of replacing me
and you in the next year.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
We will.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I mean, it's very capable because as it's growing by
leaps and bounds literally every day. But if you're you know,
we're old, so it doesn't matter if we get fired.
We're Social Security eligible. We can live out the rest
of our lives. If you're twenty five and you're replaced
by AI. Like they're talking about, like, why would there
be a yoga instructor in five years? There's no need
(08:34):
for yoga instructors. AI would do a better job than
any person possibly could. There's no need for doctors in
five to ten years because that would be done by AI.
But what AI cannot seem to get a grasp on
is plumbing and some of these other jobs that were
apparently we're always going to need them, so get into
(08:55):
the service trades that seems to And also as they're
trying to build out these massive manufacturing plants in order
to get AI really up and running, that's going to
take five to ten years. Those types of places are
going to need, you know, people who can work with
concrete and dry wall and all that sort of stuff.
So there's at least a job path forward for people
(09:16):
for the next ten to fifteen years. If you're interested
in getting your hands dirty. I am not, never been interested.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
It was contemplating recently the what would be the AI
robot plumber? What would what? What would that little what
would he look like?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
And how would you put a butt crack on him?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Absolutely, you can't be certifiless. You got a butt crack?
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, I remember it was a dan Ackroyd used to
do that bit years ago, and he always had the
and he'd act like, what what are you all laughing at?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Everything is AI not everything? As you pointed out several
AI proof you're looking for an AI proof job service
industry is a great way to go.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Boy, there are some rich people in America. Jonathan Forbes
just came out with the four hundred richest people in America.
Only one person in South Carolina made the list. And
I don't know if you know who he is, probably
do not. His name is Bob Faith. No, Bob Faith.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
He lives in Beaford, I know that.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Nope, Bob Faith lives in downtown Charleston with his wife.
Not joking. His wife Muffy and their three children. They
are South Carolinians, and well he's actly from Oklahoma. Oh, Okay.
Then he launched his company in Texas, but he moved
it to South Carolina about twenty five years ago because
(10:48):
he actually was in when I clicked his link. He
was actually a South Carolina official for a while. What
did he do here in South Carolina?
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Again?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He moved to gray Star, the name of his company's
gray Star. He moved the headquarters to Charleston in nineteen
ninety eight. Let's see he did this? That he did that?
Where's the thing where he anyway he got He wasn't elected,
but he was appointed to run something in South Carolina.
Back in Okay, here he was. Faith was the Secretary
(11:19):
of Commerce for the state of South Carolina from two
thousand and two to two thousand and eight. Okay, so
he reorganized the department's nineteen division structure into just four departments.
He streamlined South Carolina. But anyway, Bob has done very
very well for himself. As a matter of fact, Gray Star,
according to the Wikipedia page, Gray Star is the largest
(11:42):
owner of apartments in the world, and all of that
only gets him at number three oh one on our list,
he's just worth a paltry five billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Personally, the company's worth many billions more, but he himself
is worth five billion dollars. Elon Musk is the first
person in history, according to this, to break the four
hundred billion dollar networth. That puts him a staggering one
hundred and fifty two billion dollars more than the number
(12:16):
two guy. Larry Ellison comes in barely scraping by it
two hundred and seventy six billion dollars. Number three is
Zuckerberg at two fifty three, so he's twenty billion dollars
less than Allison Bezos. Well, Bezos had to give some
to his wife, right oh half of it, so he
might he might have been competing for number one, but
(12:38):
he's now worth just two forty anyway, according to this,
when you look at the the four hundred richest Americans,
their combined networth is now six point six trillion dollars
this year. That is up a trillion from last year,
(12:59):
so all of them money the rich are getting richer.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Still if you if you actually clawed back all the
money of the richest Americans, you wouldn't pay off half
of her you wouldn't pay off, but it got again.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Well, yeah, we we owe thirty eight.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, if you clawed all that because they're talking about,
you know, eat the rich, if you clawed all that back.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
When we say clawed back, we're not saying just tax
and we're saying, actually, seize their wealth, make them paupers.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
If Elon Musk lost all four hundred plus billion dollars,
all was gone. Yes, and all the four hundred richest people,
the top one, but take the top ten percent. Yeah, uh,
you're not You're not even close to paying off.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
No, you're not close.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
That's that's crazy to think.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
About staggering amount of money.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Yeah, we we really, and we go in debt like
billions of dollars, like every every year hour billions bill hour,
an hour and an hour. Yeah, so you know that's
something to think about their kids. It was about it, right,
(14:13):
I think I remember reading at one point all the
money in the world came to like that's actually like
printed is thirty five trillion. So we have three trillion
dollars more debt than there is. Actually, if we just
seized all the money out of all the banks and
all the people, even if you went and took it
from like the people who just have like one hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Yes, you know, and they live in your vanity bank
in the world, and all of the money from the
Forbes top four hundred and everybody in between.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, all seven billion people. You took all the money
that all seven billion people in every company had, you
still be three trillion dollars short.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You can include all the monopoly money as well and
put a value to that. Still wouldn't come close.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
We're not We're not there. So I don't know how
we've dug such a hole, but we you know what, Tada,
we did it.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
We did it.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Congratulations, go team USA. What else we got here for you?
Jonathan on the Morning.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Right, I have to laugh of the face of certain
pauper death.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
If you want to stay young feeling you're not obviously
going to be young, but you'd like to feel young.
According to David Kravitt and Larry Wolfe, they've written a
book on how to do this. Now this is their
follow up. I guess they had their best selling book,
The Guide to Superaging. Now the Superaging Workbook is out.
(15:33):
And so if you're approaching your fifties, your sixties, I
mean you know, I remember, hell, I remember being in
my thirties and feeling like I was getting old. You know,
so how do you change that? They say it's the
seven a's. The a's are attitude. You must have a
positive outlook and a concrete vision for your future. What
(15:57):
will your future look like if you don't have that
in your mind? There's doubt now that vision can change. Obviously,
is the circumstances on the ground or whatever. But positive
attitudes outlive people with negative attitudes almost two to one,
Meaning people with negative attitudes tend to die in their
fifties and sixties and seventies, and people with great attitudes
(16:20):
live into their nineties and hundreds. Awareness. I like this
word super agers. If you want to be a super ager,
your methodical and deliberate when it comes to gathering, analyzing,
and critically evaluating all information. Don't just accept it because
your doctor said so or you heard it from a newscast.
(16:42):
You have to analyze it yourself. Poke around on that
you come up with the conclusion. Activity you must stay active, nutrition, fitness,
It's all important. Activity number one. Autonomyers know how important
it is to maintain their physical independence. You don't want
(17:04):
to be put in a home. You want to stay
in your own home. You want to be in control
of your finances. Don't let the kids or the grandkids,
or some money manager or somebody else take control of
your finances. Accomplishment, You need to accomplish things. One of
the reasons they say that people grow old and die
(17:26):
is because they stop achieving things. They can't look back
and say I did that, I built this today, or
this month or this year, I did something.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
I solve this problem.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Yes, attachment loneliness is one of the biggest contributors to death.
It has a huge impact on your lifespan. So you
must not only maintain relationships, they say, people who are
superagers actually form new friendships as they get older. An avoidance,
knowing how to minimal risks from frauds, scams, agism in
(18:03):
the marketplace is a skill that the superagers have now perfected.
We heard that guy yesterday, That eighty seven year old
guy beat the hell out of the scammers.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Put the poor girl in the hospital. She was like
twenty eight years old, got concussed when she tried to
steal his watch. You don't want to mess with these people.
He's eighty seven. He's like, I'll still whoop that twenty
year old Piers Yep, and he did it and he
boxes on the regular, that guy. So anyway, the key
(18:34):
to staying youthful is there for you. On the Morning
Rust Blog, finally, Jonathan Tomorrow, we've got a morning regular
with a problem, as we always do, and this one
wants to know. Should people always get a second chance?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Always?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Always? Always? Okay, let me ask you this. You're clearly
making that a big point. What violation and throws you
out forever? Did I see you on a video? I'm
not going to use that analogy.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
That's sick. Oh my gosh, I'm always you stole from me.
So now I've all I still have to trust.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
You, you know. But you're giving them a second chance.
I mean, I'm still going to give you a second chance. Yes,
I think. Look, I saw this video the other day.
I thought it was very powerful. Now I think it
was in Canada. I'm not mistaken. There was a young
man had a lot of mental issues at the time.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Okay, well, then that's a that's a big caveat Well.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
When I say mental issues, I mean not like I'm
hearing voices type of issues, more like self esteem issues.
His behavior was out of control. He became pretty much
a functioning drunk. He got into a car and drunk
and and hit a mini van, killed the wife and
(20:02):
two children. This man's family was lost. He lost his
wife and his two kids in an instant. It's over.
There's no more anything. They're gone. This guy's doing twenty
five years in a prison cell. He has forgiven the man,
which is always a great thing for your own soul,
(20:25):
is to forgive. But has actually built a friendship with
this individual. And he is other than the man's mother,
the only person who visits him every month, and totally
forgiven him. Can't wait for him to get out, can't
wait to spend time with him. I have a friend
for life.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
This is not exactly but kind of like the movie
The Forge. If you saw that, I did not.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
What is The Forge?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
It's a Christian based motion picture called The Forge.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Okay, is Kirk Cameron in it? I thought it was
Christian business. It's not in his contract. You can't make
a Christian movie without Kirk camera. That's nearly a command.
But I think I think, actually God.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Just ran out of stone space or ready to put the
Moses would have brought that down.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
In the future, young teenager.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It was an okay movie. It was an okay movie.
He had a good message. We'll put it that way.
So always, oh, I'm going to contemplate that some more naturally,
if someone does something when they're drunk, I mean, that's
just something that they could overcome, so then they would
be a better person because of the absence of alcohol. Always, okay,
(21:41):
I'll think about other caveats possibly, or.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Give it about this. Have you given somebody a second
chance and regretted it? Yes, you have.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
That's why I don't give second chances.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Oh, you don't give them that's a blank. That's your
family member. If you're a family man, they get the
second chance.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But then you know, I'm kind of caught up in
my own little saying is that people are people. You
just happen to be related to some of them. Why
would I only offer that to a family member when
I realize in fact they are only people. I just
happen to be related to them. When I would certainly
then under my own guidance, I should understand that people
are people. Therefore, if you're going to have relationships with
(22:19):
people and I've found that, especially just given my small
population of non people friends.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
You have non people friends, Yes, June and Lollie, you
call them friends. I call them for you. I look
at them as acquaintances who you have to tend to.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Sometime soon in the future, I want to talk about
people with Dogs that came to my attention recently. I
can't decide whether I want to share it or not.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Let's try to make a notation. Tomorrow's podcast People with
Dogs Johnathan Russia's Insights.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
You know, I know you love your dog, and I
appreciate the fact that you've found a friend in the
animal world and you can attach yourself to It's something
that you don't lead the slaughter. That's why I guess
that's why I realized early in life, don't make friends
with animals because we're going to kill them, and we're
going to be happy about it. We may actually celebrate it.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Remember that guy who called him with the pet goat
story about Michael Jackson was the goat's name, and he
served Michael Jackson to his friends.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's just because you love your dog does not necessarily
It's not even that I have to love you dog.
I don't have to like your dog. I don't even
want to be around your dog. It's not that I
even have to accept your dog. It's your dog.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
You and your dog have your special bond.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Y'all keep that at the house or keep it somewhere
where I'm not going to be inconvenienced buy it.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Is this kind of like how you feel about PDAs
public displays of affection amongst certain people groups. You can
all do all that behind closed doors. I don't need
to see it. You don't have to celebrate about it.
We're not going to have a parade about it.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
We're going to talk about that. I don't want to
hear about it. You don't want to see the dog.
I'm not saying you can't do it. I'm just saying,
don't to hear about it.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I don't even want to.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I don't want to draw a word picture by you
describing it to me.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Watch you with the drive through, sharing an ice cream
cone with a dog.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
If you're to drive through next to me at the
big mom and you're doing all that, I'm gonna move.
I know I'm not supposed to move after the motion
picture begins, but I'm gonna move the hood of your car.
Are you gonna move?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
You're gonta given a scowl as you pull off to
and then that guy will say, Jonathan Rush gave me
the side eye.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
You want to thought that somebody works at the Big Move?
Have you ever had somebody Have you ever had to
go knock on somebody's window and ask them to cut
it out?
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Oh, like a makeout session type of thing. Do people
complain about that?
Speaker 1 (24:46):
Like? That's I don't know, that's why I want to
talk to somebody works at the Big Moe.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I would think it would be more of the audience's
business if you're doing it at the movie theater. But
those kids usually sit in the backpack.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
When they do stuff at the drive through. You don't
know they do at the movie theater because they think
there's somewhere the car is surrounded. You know, certainly you're
watching the movie from your car, so there's a window there.
It's not like you can't look out and see the
motion picture. So certainly we can look in and see

But in America is em all right? So we're going

very first person, to win the first tickets before you

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Nobody else has these tickets yet, so you'll be the
first person.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Tody himself.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Tody can't even get into the concert yet, not.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Till promoters say so.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
The clicks for ticks. Word of the day for what
you're talking about is winkle w I n k l E.
The answer is to pry out or extract something. You're
going to try to winkle us out of tickets tomorrow morning.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
And you will, in fact be successful if you're the
correct phone caller with that answer.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
We don't know the number yet.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
You don't even need a crowbar.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
No, no, no, We just hang them over freely. We
don't force you to do anything other than answer the question,
what does the word winkle mean? To pry out or
extract something?
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Now? Tomorrow is SAHT so happy? It's Thursday, getting ready
for high school football. We got tomorrow night Fireflies first
playoff game, history making event. We've already given away tickets
for that night. We've already given away tickets for Friday night.
We got game Cocks and Tigers all geared up for Saturday. Well,
(02:25):
our game is it seven?
Speaker 2 (02:27):
Very late. I'm not happy about that. I much prefer
a seven p kick, and if they if there was
an option of a six P kick, I would take that.
But you know, I like night games, I just don't
like them too late at night.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
I'm gonna be doing this one my favorite way to
do it. I'm gonna be going over I don't know
what time for tailgating. And when I say tailgating, that
I mean I set up a big tailgate. That means
I part my court and I walk around from tailgate
to tail okate.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Just steal food from everybody, right, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I just walk around and friends that go, hey, Jonathan Nugger,
there you go, here's my next pist. Get right there.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Well, you're going to have a big Friday or Saturday,
there's no question about that.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
So then, but you can't leave to go home until
like twenty minutes before kickoff because that's when the traffic
dies down. So I can get back home in about
twelve minutes.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Well, it didn't die down last week. That was a nightmare.
I called it a night at like seven thirty eight
o'clockish and we still took like an hour to get home.
Oh anyway, if you're a high school student or the
parent of a high school student, quite likely you are
trying to consider career paths right now. If you go
(03:36):
to the Morning Rest blog, we have just posted what
the Labor Department estimates will be the ten fastest growing
jobs in the next ten years.
Speaker 1 (03:47):
I said this conversation the other day in the bank
with one of my favorite branch managers. Her name is Patrese.
She was telling me that her son, Caleb is now
at a club for after school activities as he studying robotics.
I'm gonna guess that's high on the list.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Not the phrase robotics. Number one is physician assistant.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Oh yeah, yeah, I got two of those upcoming.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Median wage on that is one hundred and thirty four
thousand dollars a year. That is a fantastic job to
be a physician's assistance. But how about an actuary that's
a one hundred and twenty six thousand dollars position, physical
therapist assistant. An assistant makes seventy g's Medical and health
(04:37):
service managers.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Are you know anything about King Brand being a pa,
I mean a physical therapist assistant. You said you don't
have to travel far to get to work. Have you
noticed how many physical therapy places there are in Colombia
now everybody needs them. I mean they got more. We
got more than we have convenience stores. I mean they
(04:59):
were everywhere.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
We're in there, Like with car washes. Yes, we almost
got as many physical therapists as car washes. Yes, there
are some jobs that are kind of I've never heard
of wind turbine service tech. Now that's only going to
start you off, or the median annual wages only going
to be sixty three thousand dollars a year. I mean,
(05:21):
I don't know why people would be flocking towards that job.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
You can't be afraid. I'll tell you that you make.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
More as an HVAC repair person than you do a
wind turbine service tech, Solar photovolot volta voltank, I don't
even have to say that word, Taiic, whatever that word is.
That's what they're talking about with solar photo voultech installers.
(05:49):
That makes a paltry fifty two grand a year.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Interesting.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I like data scientists. I don't know what a scientist
does with data. But if you get that job one
hundred and twenty two thousand dollars a year, okay, information
security analysts, that's one thirty four a year.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Who he bore those?
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So there's I mean, there's some traditional jobs, there's some
new jobs in there. But you know, like we've talked
in the past, if you believe that like AI is
going to take everybody's jobs, like a lot of people say,
they're gonna be anybody working. By the way, our new
corporate training that we got that I did it yesterday.
You have to do it here before Friday.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
That's next Friday, the nineteenth. They can on my calendar
do it on the eighteenth.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
That is an AI voice now, which is weird because
they'd used the same voice of a female for like
the last seven years. I really hasn't updated. There's been
like maybe one or two slides that have been updated.
But this year they decided to boot her and have
the place with AI. And you tell it's AI because
he doesn't mispronounced words, but he miss what's the what's
(06:59):
the word? I'm mis emphasizes words. You know, I heart
radio the uh.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
But anyway, they're telegraphing the fact that we won't be needed.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
Well, if you believe that, if you believe AI is
taking your job and all these other jobs.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
I can want to tell you that so far that
has not been exactly the case. If by chance, you
goes to our national web page as an advertiser, you
want to advertise you're a small business owner. You go
to the national web page, you won't be linked up
to anybody here locally in Colombia. You'll be linked with
a national sales office and they can give you a
Jonathan Rush type voice without it being Jonathan Rush.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
I heard mine the other day. It's kind of creepy,
the Kelly Nash reading. If Kelly Nash was to do
your endorsement, this might be what it sounds like. And
I was like, are you flipping kidding me? I would
never do it that crappy.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Yeah, it was so bad. Even the client called up
and said, hey, they gave me the virtual you, but
I want the you. How do I get to you?
I said, you got to talk to the sales somebody.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
Well, they've only had a for like two years.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
You got to get out of that office and get
to the local office. So if you're a local advertiser,
call the local number.
Speaker 2 (08:06):
There's no question that AI is capable of replacing me
and you in the next year.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
We will.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
I mean, it's very capable because as it's growing by
leaps and bounds literally every day. But if you're you know,
we're old, so it doesn't matter if we get fired.
We're Social Security eligible. We can live out the rest
of our lives. If you're twenty five and you're replaced
by AI. Like they're talking about, like, why would there
be a yoga instructor in five years? There's no need
(08:34):
for yoga instructors. AI would do a better job than
any person possibly could. There's no need for doctors in
five to ten years because that would be done by AI.
But what AI cannot seem to get a grasp on
is plumbing and some of these other jobs that were
apparently we're always going to need them, so get into
(08:55):
the service trades that seems to And also as they're
trying to build out these massive manufacturing plants in order
to get AI really up and running, that's going to
take five to ten years. Those types of places are
going to need, you know, people who can work with
concrete and dry wall and all that sort of stuff.
So there's at least a job path forward for people
(09:16):
for the next ten to fifteen years. If you're interested
in getting your hands dirty. I am not, never been interested.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
It was contemplating recently the what would be the AI
robot plumber? What would what? What would that little what
would he look like?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
And how would you put a butt crack on him?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Absolutely, you can't be certifiless. You got a butt crack?
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Yeah, I remember it was a dan Ackroyd used to
do that bit years ago, and he always had the
and he'd act like, what what are you all laughing at?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Right?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Everything is AI not everything? As you pointed out several
AI proof you're looking for an AI proof job service
industry is a great way to go.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
Boy, there are some rich people in America. Jonathan Forbes
just came out with the four hundred richest people in America.
Only one person in South Carolina made the list. And
I don't know if you know who he is, probably
do not. His name is Bob Faith. No, Bob Faith.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
He lives in Beaford, I know that.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Nope, Bob Faith lives in downtown Charleston with his wife.
Not joking. His wife Muffy and their three children. They
are South Carolinians, and well he's actly from Oklahoma. Oh, Okay.
Then he launched his company in Texas, but he moved
it to South Carolina about twenty five years ago because
(10:48):
he actually was in when I clicked his link. He
was actually a South Carolina official for a while. What
did he do here in South Carolina?
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Again?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
He moved to gray Star, the name of his company's
gray Star. He moved the headquarters to Charleston in nineteen
ninety eight. Let's see he did this? That he did that?
Where's the thing where he anyway he got He wasn't elected,
but he was appointed to run something in South Carolina.
Back in Okay, here he was. Faith was the Secretary
(11:19):
of Commerce for the state of South Carolina from two
thousand and two to two thousand and eight. Okay, so
he reorganized the department's nineteen division structure into just four departments.
He streamlined South Carolina. But anyway, Bob has done very
very well for himself. As a matter of fact, Gray Star,
according to the Wikipedia page, Gray Star is the largest
(11:42):
owner of apartments in the world, and all of that
only gets him at number three oh one on our list,
he's just worth a paltry five billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
Personally, the company's worth many billions more, but he himself
is worth five billion dollars. Elon Musk is the first
person in history, according to this, to break the four
hundred billion dollar networth. That puts him a staggering one
hundred and fifty two billion dollars more than the number
(12:16):
two guy. Larry Ellison comes in barely scraping by it
two hundred and seventy six billion dollars. Number three is
Zuckerberg at two fifty three, so he's twenty billion dollars
less than Allison Bezos. Well, Bezos had to give some
to his wife, right oh half of it, so he
might he might have been competing for number one, but
(12:38):
he's now worth just two forty anyway, according to this,
when you look at the the four hundred richest Americans,
their combined networth is now six point six trillion dollars
this year. That is up a trillion from last year,
(12:59):
so all of them money the rich are getting richer.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Still if you if you actually clawed back all the
money of the richest Americans, you wouldn't pay off half
of her you wouldn't pay off, but it got again.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Well, yeah, we we owe thirty eight.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Yeah, if you clawed all that because they're talking about,
you know, eat the rich, if you clawed all that back.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
When we say clawed back, we're not saying just tax
and we're saying, actually, seize their wealth, make them paupers.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
If Elon Musk lost all four hundred plus billion dollars,
all was gone. Yes, and all the four hundred richest people,
the top one, but take the top ten percent. Yeah, uh,
you're not You're not even close to paying off.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
No, you're not close.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
That's that's crazy to think.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
About staggering amount of money.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Yeah, we we really, and we go in debt like
billions of dollars, like every every year hour billions bill hour,
an hour and an hour. Yeah, so you know that's
something to think about their kids. It was about it, right,
(14:13):
I think I remember reading at one point all the
money in the world came to like that's actually like
printed is thirty five trillion. So we have three trillion
dollars more debt than there is. Actually, if we just
seized all the money out of all the banks and
all the people, even if you went and took it
from like the people who just have like one hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Yes, you know, and they live in your vanity bank
in the world, and all of the money from the
Forbes top four hundred and everybody in between.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Yeah, all seven billion people. You took all the money
that all seven billion people in every company had, you
still be three trillion dollars short.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
You can include all the monopoly money as well and
put a value to that. Still wouldn't come close.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
We're not We're not there. So I don't know how
we've dug such a hole, but we you know what, Tada,
we did it.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
We did it.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Congratulations, go team USA. What else we got here for you?
Jonathan on the Morning.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Right, I have to laugh of the face of certain
pauper death.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
If you want to stay young feeling you're not obviously
going to be young, but you'd like to feel young.
According to David Kravitt and Larry Wolfe, they've written a
book on how to do this. Now this is their
follow up. I guess they had their best selling book,
The Guide to Superaging. Now the Superaging Workbook is out.
(15:33):
And so if you're approaching your fifties, your sixties, I
mean you know, I remember, hell, I remember being in
my thirties and feeling like I was getting old. You know,
so how do you change that? They say it's the
seven a's. The a's are attitude. You must have a
positive outlook and a concrete vision for your future. What
(15:57):
will your future look like if you don't have that
in your mind? There's doubt now that vision can change. Obviously,
is the circumstances on the ground or whatever. But positive
attitudes outlive people with negative attitudes almost two to one,
Meaning people with negative attitudes tend to die in their
fifties and sixties and seventies, and people with great attitudes
(16:20):
live into their nineties and hundreds. Awareness. I like this
word super agers. If you want to be a super ager,
your methodical and deliberate when it comes to gathering, analyzing,
and critically evaluating all information. Don't just accept it because
your doctor said so or you heard it from a newscast.
(16:42):
You have to analyze it yourself. Poke around on that
you come up with the conclusion. Activity you must stay active, nutrition, fitness,
It's all important. Activity number one. Autonomyers know how important
it is to maintain their physical independence. You don't want
(17:04):
to be put in a home. You want to stay
in your own home. You want to be in control
of your finances. Don't let the kids or the grandkids,
or some money manager or somebody else take control of
your finances. Accomplishment, You need to accomplish things. One of
the reasons they say that people grow old and die
(17:26):
is because they stop achieving things. They can't look back
and say I did that, I built this today, or
this month or this year, I did something.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
I solve this problem.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Yes, attachment loneliness is one of the biggest contributors to death.
It has a huge impact on your lifespan. So you
must not only maintain relationships, they say, people who are
superagers actually form new friendships as they get older. An avoidance,
knowing how to minimal risks from frauds, scams, agism in
(18:03):
the marketplace is a skill that the superagers have now perfected.
We heard that guy yesterday, That eighty seven year old
guy beat the hell out of the scammers.
Speaker 1 (18:13):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Put the poor girl in the hospital. She was like
twenty eight years old, got concussed when she tried to
steal his watch. You don't want to mess with these people.
He's eighty seven. He's like, I'll still whoop that twenty
year old Piers Yep, and he did it and he
boxes on the regular, that guy. So anyway, the key
(18:34):
to staying youthful is there for you. On the Morning
Rust Blog, finally, Jonathan Tomorrow, we've got a morning regular
with a problem, as we always do, and this one
wants to know. Should people always get a second chance?
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Always?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
Always? Always? Okay, let me ask you this. You're clearly
making that a big point. What violation and throws you
out forever? Did I see you on a video? I'm
not going to use that analogy.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
That's sick. Oh my gosh, I'm always you stole from me.
So now I've all I still have to trust.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
You, you know. But you're giving them a second chance.
I mean, I'm still going to give you a second chance. Yes,
I think. Look, I saw this video the other day.
I thought it was very powerful. Now I think it
was in Canada. I'm not mistaken. There was a young
man had a lot of mental issues at the time.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
Okay, well, then that's a that's a big caveat Well.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
When I say mental issues, I mean not like I'm
hearing voices type of issues, more like self esteem issues.
His behavior was out of control. He became pretty much
a functioning drunk. He got into a car and drunk
and and hit a mini van, killed the wife and
(20:02):
two children. This man's family was lost. He lost his
wife and his two kids in an instant. It's over.
There's no more anything. They're gone. This guy's doing twenty
five years in a prison cell. He has forgiven the man,
which is always a great thing for your own soul,
(20:25):
is to forgive. But has actually built a friendship with
this individual. And he is other than the man's mother,
the only person who visits him every month, and totally
forgiven him. Can't wait for him to get out, can't
wait to spend time with him. I have a friend
for life.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
This is not exactly but kind of like the movie
The Forge. If you saw that, I did not.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
What is The Forge?
Speaker 1 (20:50):
It's a Christian based motion picture called The Forge.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Okay, is Kirk Cameron in it? I thought it was
Christian business. It's not in his contract. You can't make
a Christian movie without Kirk camera. That's nearly a command.
But I think I think, actually God.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
Just ran out of stone space or ready to put the
Moses would have brought that down.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
In the future, young teenager.
Speaker 1 (21:19):
It was an okay movie. It was an okay movie.
He had a good message. We'll put it that way.
So always, oh, I'm going to contemplate that some more naturally,
if someone does something when they're drunk, I mean, that's
just something that they could overcome, so then they would
be a better person because of the absence of alcohol. Always, okay,
(21:41):
I'll think about other caveats possibly, or.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Give it about this. Have you given somebody a second
chance and regretted it? Yes, you have.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
That's why I don't give second chances.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Oh, you don't give them that's a blank. That's your
family member. If you're a family man, they get the
second chance.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But then you know, I'm kind of caught up in
my own little saying is that people are people. You
just happen to be related to some of them. Why
would I only offer that to a family member when
I realize in fact they are only people. I just
happen to be related to them. When I would certainly
then under my own guidance, I should understand that people
are people. Therefore, if you're going to have relationships with
(22:19):
people and I've found that, especially just given my small
population of non people friends.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
You have non people friends, Yes, June and Lollie, you
call them friends. I call them for you. I look
at them as acquaintances who you have to tend to.
Speaker 1 (22:38):
Sometime soon in the future, I want to talk about
people with Dogs that came to my attention recently. I
can't decide whether I want to share it or not.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Let's try to make a notation. Tomorrow's podcast People with
Dogs Johnathan Russia's Insights.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
You know, I know you love your dog, and I
appreciate the fact that you've found a friend in the
animal world and you can attach yourself to It's something
that you don't lead the slaughter. That's why I guess
that's why I realized early in life, don't make friends
with animals because we're going to kill them, and we're
going to be happy about it. We may actually celebrate it.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
Remember that guy who called him with the pet goat
story about Michael Jackson was the goat's name, and he
served Michael Jackson to his friends.
Speaker 1 (23:20):
It's just because you love your dog does not necessarily
It's not even that I have to love you dog.
I don't have to like your dog. I don't even
want to be around your dog. It's not that I
even have to accept your dog. It's your dog.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
You and your dog have your special bond.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Y'all keep that at the house or keep it somewhere
where I'm not going to be inconvenienced buy it.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Is this kind of like how you feel about PDAs
public displays of affection amongst certain people groups. You can
all do all that behind closed doors. I don't need
to see it. You don't have to celebrate about it.
We're not going to have a parade about it.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
We're going to talk about that. I don't want to
hear about it. You don't want to see the dog.
I'm not saying you can't do it. I'm just saying,
don't to hear about it.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
I don't even want to.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I don't want to draw a word picture by you
describing it to me.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Watch you with the drive through, sharing an ice cream
cone with a dog.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
If you're to drive through next to me at the
big mom and you're doing all that, I'm gonna move.
I know I'm not supposed to move after the motion
picture begins, but I'm gonna move the hood of your car.
Are you gonna move?
Speaker 2 (24:26):
You're gonta given a scowl as you pull off to
