Speaker 1 (02:43):
Oh yeah, well you realize you've lost millions of times

Speaker 2 (03:19):
That's a sad that's a sad guy.
Speaker 4 (03:21):
That's a sad lady.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
Depression has set in when you realize we're never gonna win.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
What's one of the wildest things I've ever heard?
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Is that crazy?
Speaker 5 (03:29):
Here's the one, the blowing facing lottery millions where we
try to win millions of dollars through the California State
Lottery doing scratchers.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
Today we.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Didn't.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
That is awful.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
Sounds like angry too, like like it's the pressure.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
It's so it's the realization that, wow, we've lost so
much time, we've lost so much money. Has friends on
the internet, now, what happened to my life?
Speaker 6 (04:04):
So I don't recall what was going on in that
last video.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
But I could I could take it sadness.
Speaker 6 (04:11):
I could take an educated guess that I was ready
for the channel to die. My husband wasn't. He wanted
to do another video. We were bickering with me being like,
why are we still doing this? And he's like, we
can't just ghost people, and then we probably had a
little back and forth. Oh yeah, he still says, we're
still getting comments and emails, and how rude of us
(04:32):
to not reply, and as you reply, because he does just.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Reply with ChEls on hiatus, we're taking a break right now,
like you could reply.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
He feels like he would have to like explain our life.
Sorry why I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
He is strangers on the internet.
Speaker 6 (04:50):
So we probably were bickering and I finally said, fine,
let's just do it.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
And that.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Long way for something like this too.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Hey, thanks so.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Much for checking out Chae saying lottery millions. This is
where we scratch California lottery scratchers and guess what we're
gonna win millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
WHOA, I put the random video, guys, I just the
random video and then reality setting.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
Yeah, Hey, what's up. I'm here scratching lottery tickets again,
I mean nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Shout out west side, West Coast.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
What's up?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Sky? Oh Sky? Because they're West Coast winning.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Ticket the scratcher. Shout out the most.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Cringe worthy person on the planet. I hear that.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Millions of dollars?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Can you isolate that and save it forever? Doubt?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
You know you're right?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
What a noise?
Speaker 1 (05:59):
So, just in case you're a brand new listener, you
aren't aware, Sky and her husband created this lottery scratcher
YouTube channel where it's literally not they're not on camera,
it's just the ticket and Sky's hand. That's It's it.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
And then they comment, well that's sweet commentary.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yeah yeah, and I know what you're thinking, Wow, that's
so stupid.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well they did it every day, like twenty multiple twenty
dollars tickets every day, twenty dollar tickets.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
So I was going to say, they're not five dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
They want to win a million.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Yeah, and people want to see someone win a million.
They don't want to see somebody win a thousand.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I don't want to see someone win any money.
Speaker 6 (06:36):
But then again, you wanted the person to die the
second they went into the hospital so different.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
So you did this for years and we tried to
talk you out of it and say, Sky, you're losing
money left and right, what are you doing? And you
but you believe you were going to win at some point. Yeah,
you passed the code.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
You guys were saying, just hand you the money, Just
set the money on fire, just flush the money down
the toilet. These were suggestions you had for me, but
I still not some day, like, if you do this
long enough, some day you're gonna hit that jackpot.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I was in Vegas in February and I lost all
my money and I kept saying to myself at the
that table, my number has to hit.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
The odds are in your favor. Eventually hit.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
There's only so many numbers.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Did if you stayed there for three days.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Every day.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
It didn't hit. Guys for three days straight, none of
my numbers.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Scratched every day for years, clearly didn't work.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It's so how long has it been since that last
video was posted?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
What is this?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
What's the date on that last video? Because I don't
even know.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Style four years ago? But it's not no, because that's
and that's the first video that you have up. I
don't know when that would.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Be four years ago. Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
It's been a couple of years, a couple of years
since our last video, an one three years ago.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah, I wanted to say it was last year, like
kind of the middle of the year we started.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
The earliest ones. I'm seeing it three years ago.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yeah, so it couldn't be four years ago.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Maybe that's when you started the channel and that.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Yeah, I want to say.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
And here's one that says nine months ago.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Yeah, so I.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
Want to say it was like mid last year we
gave up something like that, gave up a life.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That says right there June. I don't know either. That's
the one we were I don't know why June of
last year was the last.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Okay, so okay, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
So that was it. No more scratchers, no more videos.
Channel's done.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Yeah, and the husband was really sad because we did
we we ghosted YouTube.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
And uh ghosted YouTube.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
Well, the boo wanted to do like a goodbye video,
like a recap, but something it's so hard say goodbye,
chasing a lot of remillions.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Yes, definitely, Eddie, you.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Show up and then that's it, say goodbye.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, yeah, he want to do that.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
He wanted us because we had kept all the like
scratch tickets, like all the garbage tickets, so we had
boxes and boxes. No, we had thought one day we
would do like a recap video, like we in our
brain we thought every year at the end of the year,
we'll do a recap and you'll show it because other
people have done that and it blows your mind to
(09:32):
see that many tickets.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
It's more like an educational video of this is what
gambling does, not how much money you yes, yes, and
how you're never going to win. That would make sense. Yeah,
And they showed it like elementary schools and stuff with
the Dare program.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
But so the last video was June and then uh,
we kind of we did the the closet cleanouts recently,
and I said, throw those tickets away, like, why are
we keeping tickets down?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
We're done?
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Were means of them?
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Yeah, they were actually in like cardboard boxes. There were
like four big cardboard boxes.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Just thousands and thousands of dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 6 (10:12):
And I was so thankful we quit when we did,
because the highest ticket at the time in California was
thirty dollars well, this year they have put out a
forty dollars scratch done.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Oh absolutely, we would have liked one.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
By the way, dedicated a week's worth.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Of videos to how much in a week would you
spend if it was forty dollars?
Speaker 6 (10:33):
My husband probably would have talked me into buying a book.
And I don't know what a book costs, but I'm
thinking of.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I don't even know what that means. A book of lottery?
How much?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
What is that show?
Speaker 4 (10:43):
When you buy a lottery ticket?
Speaker 6 (10:45):
You know, guy seven to eleven is just pulling it
out of the display, but when he loads the display
it comes.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
In a book.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You could buy that.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Which, yes, is a cellophane wrapped pack of tickets, and
so would be like, what a thousand bucks? I'm thinking
eight hundred But I'm not really sure. I've never bought
a book because I think a book of thirty dollars
scratches is six hundred bucks, and we've bought that before
and done that multiple time.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Come in a book. I just bought a PlayStation four
hundred bucks and I'm like that was a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I don't know I book.
Speaker 6 (11:17):
I'm not sure that I have no idea, Okay, I
can't remember I knew all this stuff like by hard,
like I could have given you.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Stats like no, yeah, no, it was sad, sick.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
We don't need that.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
So that's where we left it. We sent our goodbyes.
It was over rest in peace until the comeback. What
just literally chopped up? I've done too.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I don't know, like Jordan's coming back after going to
the miners.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Bigger, bigger, bigger than Jordan.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
That for saying that.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yeah, this is like Richard Simmons stuff. He thought he
was dead and the next thing you know, there is
well now now now right, yeah, now it's old. Trust me.
The channel be dead too. Okay, hey, what is going on?
What's this announcement?
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Well, hell, I did not see this coming, nor honestly
did my husband the boo. But uh, yesterday we got
our taxes done and we have a new tax person.
I've had the same tax person for like twenty years.
Just you know, you put your documents in, bam, you
get your return, you don't ask any questions, and you
move on. Well, this is a local guy where I
(12:32):
actually went in the office, sat actually he explained things
to me, understanding things, and it turns out that I
have quite a few write offs that I cannot use.
So like I basically could be getting a way better return.
I could be writing off a lot of stuff, but unfortunately,
due to the tax law, I don't qualify. But you
(12:56):
know what would make me qualify to write a bunch
that stuff off which I currently can't against my paycheck?
Here at iHeart if I had an outside entertainment project
that gave me a ten ninety nine, which is the
tax document that YouTube will send you if you have
(13:19):
a YouTube account that makes money. So if I can
continue to get a ten ninety nine from.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
YouTube, it will be a huge.
Speaker 6 (13:31):
Tax advantage for me, even if that ten ninety nine
is saying I made like a hundred bucks for the
entire year. Just having that document, I guess, opens a
tax door that I otherwise wouldn't be able to open.
And so we said to tax guy yesterday. First off,
(13:52):
he loved the channel. He goes, oh, that's like unboxing.
You just you have to watch and wait till the end.
So that made us feel don't have to watch YouTube
dot YouTube. You don't know if one billions or I
never will you have you never will spoiler alert.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Thanks, What about the amount of money you're losing on
the channel. Yeah, compared to your write off, is that
he gonna even be worth it?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Well, so that's the thing, he says. You don't have
to do videos every single day. You just have to
do enough videos because there's a certain threshold. If you
make under like a hundred bucks, YouTube won't even issue you.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Yeah, I could just have one drink, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
I couldn't.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
I could just go in the bar, just one. I've
had a long day. I've had a long day. The
system is not working at work right now. I just
have one Michel ultra. I could have one little.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Why why.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Really have a little toot?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Just what I need an extra bump to keep me up,
you know. Okay, I can just have Yeah, I could
just have you know, a little pop feed and al
real quick to go to.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Sleep for a long time.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I won't do that. I won't do that, Okay, couple,
I'll just have two value your point being, Uh, they're
gonna start it once every once in a while, and
then maybe they get a little win and then the
blood starts falling in and then next thing you know,
it's every day. I have a gambling addiction. I'm not saying,
but I'm saying, Okay, okay, I'm not saying. I'm just saying, explain.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
To me if it's worth it. The amount of money
you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose, uh doing these lottery
scratchers compared to your right off, have you crunched the numbers?
Speaker 6 (15:37):
Well, at the end of our YouTube career, well, I
should say, at the height of our YouTube career, before
you started to get to press Scott, Yeah, you were
making a We were in break even town where our
YouTube money would cover the losses with the winds.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And the YouTube even town doesn't sound like a fun place.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Well not when you're making a video everything.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
I would never want to live and break even town.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Even towns no fun. But at least you're breaking even.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
But with this, no way would we go back to
every single day. But if hey, once a month we
drop a surprise video.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Who but you didn't see it coming?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
W It is the excitement that's like me have to,
Like I could just have to, I could just smoke
one little bong.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Right, they're back, They're back. We missed it so much.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Oh man, dude, I can't deal it.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
So on the drive hole.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
The Boo looked at me and he said, are we
doing this? Oh my god, you guys, And I said,
I think we are.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
That is he bringing the studio back, because remember you
had a studio in your house.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Yeah, and now it's like a storage table with some
dusty microphone in the corner.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
So I think we're gonna have to dust.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
That off, going down this dark road again.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Gonna have to buy some forty dollars scratchers, and we're.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Gonna have to see what we can do.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I'm it's a sad day for the show.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
It's a sad day for if I win ten million
dollars and have to retire early.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
You know, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
You already have your house.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I'm sorry. Well, thank you. There you go take that
Yeah, because I heard about this and I am confused.
It doesn't make any sense. No, we said our final goodbyes.
And have you ever had this happen where you go
into a hospital and you think that's it for grandma,
grandpa or whoever, and you know, you're kind of saying
your final goodbyes and then they sort of make a comeback.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
Yeah, it's kind of annoying. What because you're like, because
you're like, I said goodbye already, Like just then, we're
just dragging this on.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
Now.
Speaker 2 (00:31):
I get. I totally get what you're saying.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
It's not my grandmother. She was on her final legs.

and she kind of recovered, which I was thankful for
to have more time with her any normal.

for the channel to die. My husband wasn't. He wanted
to do another video. We were bickering with me being like,
why are we still doing this? And he's like, we
can't just ghost people, and then we probably had a
little back and forth. Oh yeah, he still says, we're
still getting comments and emails, and how rude of us
(04:32):
to not reply, and as you reply, because he does just.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Reply with ChEls on hiatus, we're taking a break right now,
like you could reply.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
He feels like he would have to like explain our life.
Sorry why I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (04:48):
He is strangers on the internet.
Speaker 6 (04:50):
So we probably were bickering and I finally said, fine,
let's just do it.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
And that.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
Long way for something like this too.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
Hey, thanks so.
Speaker 6 (04:59):
Much for checking out Chae saying lottery millions. This is
where we scratch California lottery scratchers and guess what we're
gonna win millions of dollars.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
WHOA, I put the random video, guys, I just the
random video and then reality setting.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
Yeah, Hey, what's up. I'm here scratching lottery tickets again,
I mean nothing.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
Shout out west side, West Coast.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
What's up?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Sky? Oh Sky? Because they're West Coast winning.
Speaker 4 (05:41):
Ticket the scratcher. Shout out the most.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Cringe worthy person on the planet. I hear that.
Speaker 4 (05:47):
Millions of dollars?
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Can you isolate that and save it forever? Doubt?
Speaker 1 (05:54):
You know you're right?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
What a noise?
Speaker 1 (05:59):
So, just in case you're a brand new listener, you
aren't aware, Sky and her husband created this lottery scratcher
YouTube channel where it's literally not they're not on camera,
it's just the ticket and Sky's hand. That's It's it.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
And then they comment, well that's sweet commentary.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Yeah yeah, and I know what you're thinking, Wow, that's
so stupid.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
Well they did it every day, like twenty multiple twenty
dollars tickets every day, twenty dollar tickets.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
So I was going to say, they're not five dollars.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
They want to win a million.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
Yeah, and people want to see someone win a million.
They don't want to see somebody win a thousand.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
I don't want to see someone win any money.
Speaker 6 (06:36):
But then again, you wanted the person to die the
second they went into the hospital so different.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
So you did this for years and we tried to
talk you out of it and say, Sky, you're losing
money left and right, what are you doing? And you
but you believe you were going to win at some point. Yeah,
you passed the code.
Speaker 6 (06:52):
You guys were saying, just hand you the money, Just
set the money on fire, just flush the money down
the toilet. These were suggestions you had for me, but
I still not some day, like, if you do this
long enough, some day you're gonna hit that jackpot.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
I was in Vegas in February and I lost all
my money and I kept saying to myself at the
that table, my number has to hit.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
The odds are in your favor. Eventually hit.
Speaker 4 (07:22):
There's only so many numbers.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Did if you stayed there for three days.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
Every day.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
It didn't hit. Guys for three days straight, none of
my numbers.
Speaker 6 (07:33):
Scratched every day for years, clearly didn't work.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
It's so how long has it been since that last
video was posted?
Speaker 2 (07:46):
What is this?
Speaker 4 (07:47):
What's the date on that last video? Because I don't
even know.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Style four years ago? But it's not no, because that's
and that's the first video that you have up. I
don't know when that would.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
Be four years ago. Yeah, that's weird.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
It's been a couple of years, a couple of years
since our last video, an one three years ago.
Speaker 6 (08:10):
Yeah, I wanted to say it was last year, like
kind of the middle of the year we started.
Speaker 2 (08:14):
The earliest ones. I'm seeing it three years ago.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Yeah, so it couldn't be four years ago.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Maybe that's when you started the channel and that.
Speaker 4 (08:21):
Yeah, I want to say.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
And here's one that says nine months ago.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Yeah, so I.
Speaker 6 (08:26):
Want to say it was like mid last year we
gave up something like that, gave up a life.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (08:32):
That says right there June. I don't know either. That's
the one we were I don't know why June of
last year was the last.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
Okay, so okay, that makes sense.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
So that was it. No more scratchers, no more videos.
Channel's done.
Speaker 6 (08:46):
Yeah, and the husband was really sad because we did
we we ghosted YouTube.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
And uh ghosted YouTube.
Speaker 6 (08:52):
Well, the boo wanted to do like a goodbye video,
like a recap, but something it's so hard say goodbye,
chasing a lot of remillions.
Speaker 4 (09:03):
Yes, definitely, Eddie, you.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Show up and then that's it, say goodbye.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Yeah, yeah, he want to do that.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
He wanted us because we had kept all the like
scratch tickets, like all the garbage tickets, so we had
boxes and boxes. No, we had thought one day we
would do like a recap video, like we in our
brain we thought every year at the end of the year,
we'll do a recap and you'll show it because other
people have done that and it blows your mind to
(09:32):
see that many tickets.
Speaker 2 (09:34):
It's more like an educational video of this is what
gambling does, not how much money you yes, yes, and
how you're never going to win. That would make sense. Yeah,
And they showed it like elementary schools and stuff with
the Dare program.
Speaker 4 (09:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
But so the last video was June and then uh,
we kind of we did the the closet cleanouts recently,
and I said, throw those tickets away, like, why are
we keeping tickets down?
Speaker 2 (09:59):
We're done?
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Were means of them?
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Yeah, they were actually in like cardboard boxes. There were
like four big cardboard boxes.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
Just thousands and thousands of dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 6 (10:12):
And I was so thankful we quit when we did,
because the highest ticket at the time in California was
thirty dollars well, this year they have put out a
forty dollars scratch done.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
Oh absolutely, we would have liked one.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
By the way, dedicated a week's worth.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
Of videos to how much in a week would you
spend if it was forty dollars?
Speaker 6 (10:33):
My husband probably would have talked me into buying a book.
And I don't know what a book costs, but I'm
thinking of.
Speaker 1 (10:38):
I don't even know what that means. A book of lottery?
How much?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
What is that show?
Speaker 4 (10:43):
When you buy a lottery ticket?
Speaker 6 (10:45):
You know, guy seven to eleven is just pulling it
out of the display, but when he loads the display
it comes.
Speaker 4 (10:51):
In a book.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
You could buy that.
Speaker 6 (10:53):
Which, yes, is a cellophane wrapped pack of tickets, and
so would be like, what a thousand bucks? I'm thinking
eight hundred But I'm not really sure. I've never bought
a book because I think a book of thirty dollars
scratches is six hundred bucks, and we've bought that before
and done that multiple time.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
Come in a book. I just bought a PlayStation four
hundred bucks and I'm like that was a lot.
Speaker 4 (11:15):
I don't know I book.
Speaker 6 (11:17):
I'm not sure that I have no idea, Okay, I
can't remember I knew all this stuff like by hard,
like I could have given you.
Speaker 2 (11:24):
Stats like no, yeah, no, it was sad, sick.
Speaker 4 (11:28):
We don't need that.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
So that's where we left it. We sent our goodbyes.
It was over rest in peace until the comeback. What
just literally chopped up? I've done too.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
I don't know, like Jordan's coming back after going to
the miners.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Bigger, bigger, bigger than Jordan.
Speaker 4 (11:52):
That for saying that.
Speaker 1 (11:54):
Yeah, this is like Richard Simmons stuff. He thought he
was dead and the next thing you know, there is
well now now now right, yeah, now it's old. Trust me.
The channel be dead too. Okay, hey, what is going on?
What's this announcement?
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Well, hell, I did not see this coming, nor honestly
did my husband the boo. But uh, yesterday we got
our taxes done and we have a new tax person.
I've had the same tax person for like twenty years.
Just you know, you put your documents in, bam, you
get your return, you don't ask any questions, and you
move on. Well, this is a local guy where I
(12:32):
actually went in the office, sat actually he explained things
to me, understanding things, and it turns out that I
have quite a few write offs that I cannot use.
So like I basically could be getting a way better return.
I could be writing off a lot of stuff, but unfortunately,
due to the tax law, I don't qualify. But you
(12:56):
know what would make me qualify to write a bunch
that stuff off which I currently can't against my paycheck?
Here at iHeart if I had an outside entertainment project
that gave me a ten ninety nine, which is the
tax document that YouTube will send you if you have
(13:19):
a YouTube account that makes money. So if I can
continue to get a ten ninety nine from.
Speaker 4 (13:27):
YouTube, it will be a huge.
Speaker 6 (13:31):
Tax advantage for me, even if that ten ninety nine
is saying I made like a hundred bucks for the
entire year. Just having that document, I guess, opens a
tax door that I otherwise wouldn't be able to open.
And so we said to tax guy yesterday. First off,
(13:52):
he loved the channel. He goes, oh, that's like unboxing.
You just you have to watch and wait till the end.
So that made us feel don't have to watch YouTube
dot YouTube. You don't know if one billions or I
never will you have you never will spoiler alert.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Thanks, What about the amount of money you're losing on
the channel. Yeah, compared to your write off, is that
he gonna even be worth it?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
Well, so that's the thing, he says. You don't have
to do videos every single day. You just have to
do enough videos because there's a certain threshold. If you
make under like a hundred bucks, YouTube won't even issue you.
Speaker 2 (14:24):
Yeah, I could just have one drink, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
I couldn't.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
I could just go in the bar, just one. I've
had a long day. I've had a long day. The
system is not working at work right now. I just
have one Michel ultra. I could have one little.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Why why.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
Really have a little toot?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
Just what I need an extra bump to keep me up,
you know. Okay, I can just have Yeah, I could
just have you know, a little pop feed and al
real quick to go to.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
Sleep for a long time.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
I won't do that. I won't do that, Okay, couple,
I'll just have two value your point being, Uh, they're
gonna start it once every once in a while, and
then maybe they get a little win and then the
blood starts falling in and then next thing you know,
it's every day. I have a gambling addiction. I'm not saying,
but I'm saying, Okay, okay, I'm not saying. I'm just saying, explain.
Speaker 1 (15:27):
To me if it's worth it. The amount of money
you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose, uh doing these lottery
scratchers compared to your right off, have you crunched the numbers?
Speaker 6 (15:37):
Well, at the end of our YouTube career, well, I
should say, at the height of our YouTube career, before
you started to get to press Scott, Yeah, you were
making a We were in break even town where our
YouTube money would cover the losses with the winds.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
And the YouTube even town doesn't sound like a fun place.
Speaker 4 (15:55):
Well not when you're making a video everything.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
I would never want to live and break even town.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
Even towns no fun. But at least you're breaking even.
Speaker 6 (16:02):
But with this, no way would we go back to
every single day. But if hey, once a month we
drop a surprise video.
Speaker 4 (16:12):
Who but you didn't see it coming?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
W It is the excitement that's like me have to,
Like I could just have to, I could just smoke
one little bong.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
Right, they're back, They're back. We missed it so much.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Oh man, dude, I can't deal it.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
So on the drive hole.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
The Boo looked at me and he said, are we
doing this? Oh my god, you guys, And I said,
I think we are.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
That is he bringing the studio back, because remember you
had a studio in your house.
Speaker 6 (16:46):
Yeah, and now it's like a storage table with some
dusty microphone in the corner.
Speaker 4 (16:51):
So I think we're gonna have to dust.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
That off, going down this dark road again.
Speaker 6 (16:54):
Gonna have to buy some forty dollars scratchers, and we're.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Gonna have to see what we can do.
Speaker 2 (17:01):
I'm it's a sad day for the show.
Speaker 6 (17:04):
It's a sad day for if I win ten million
dollars and have to retire early.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
You know, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
You already have your house.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I'm sorry. Well, thank you. There you go take that
