Speaker 1 (00:00):
Have we ever talked about raff all? We did not raffle,
raff all, r af all, raff all.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I don't even know where that is, I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Does that sound familiar? Does that ring a bell?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
It does not raff all raff all. That's weird to
even type it in r af all. I imagine it's
just the combination of all in raffle exactly exactly, you
know what I want to try to get.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
So, I was reading about this couple. They bought for
twelve dollars and sixty seven cents. They bought three raffle tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Huh. They now own a house in Ireland.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
They live here, but they have a house in Ireland.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
They live in Dayton, Ohio.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Oh yeah, they they live in Dayton and they bought
raffle tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I didn't know you could raffle off a house.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Why would somebody raffle off a house. They don't need
the money from the sale of a house.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
They might make more on the raffle oh bing go, Really,
how much more are they making if this is how
some people are doing.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So, I think raff all. I hope I'm saying it right.
I think raff all gets ten percent. Maybe it's it's
it's somewhere. It's somewhere between zero and ten percent. But
then they sell all the raffle tickets. In the raffle tickets,
they you sell as many as you want. Now, I
(01:27):
don't know what happens if you don't sell enough, but
you get but yeah, you can end up raffling off
your house and you make Tyler's right, Yeah, you can make.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
You can make so much more, like.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Listen, because everybody's only paying like what like is it
seven bucks a ticket? Something like that?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I think it maybe you set the price. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I didn't dig through it. I've never heard of raffling
off a house. No, but I know a couple from Dayton, Ohio.
They spent twelve dollars and sixty seven cents and on
four tickets, and they just they just got themselves a
nice cottage in Ireland.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
I can tell you that for that cottage, the person
who organized the raffle bought it for one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in twenty twenty two. Wait, they bought
the cottage, bought the cottage three for one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Wait, hold on, I'm going to do some math. Go ahead,
one hundred and fifty. I'm just going to put a
k there in twenty twenty two. It is now twenty
twenty five, and they raffled it off four.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
One million dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Oh my god, I'm going to raffle off a place
in Arlington right now. Why wouldn't everybody just raffle their
house off? Has anybody ever raffled their house?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I've never heard of that.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Woman in Ohio, though, fall upon a listing for an
Irish cottage.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Last October, the twenty nine year old US Marine Corps
Marine Corps officer applied for her Irish citizenship through lineage
on her father's side.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
It was approved a month later.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
In February, she and her husband, Michael, also a Marine officer,
and their two toddlers, transferred from their duty station in
North Carolina to Dayton, Ohio. Three weeks later, Kathleen gave
birth to their third child. They started preparing for graduate
studies and engineering. She vaguely remembers buying a few raffle
(03:29):
tickets in an online raffle back in December.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
She just bought them online. Oh my god, but.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Because her family has Irish roots, Yeah, she bought them online.
Somebody had to call her, Like when they announced the winner,
somebody had to call her and go, hey, Kathleen, didn't you.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Buy Raffle tickets? And she was like, oh yeah, like
you won, She's like, oh my damn. So she now
owns it.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
If your goal falls short, Raffle allows you to give
the winner fifty percent of the revenue, keep forty and
the original item listed.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Wait say that again.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
So let's say let's say she's got to get to
a Like, let's say the person who sold the cottage,
they bought it for one hundred and fifty thousand, they
want to sell it for two hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
That's the minimum.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
I'm making this up right, right, right, okay, So if
we don't get to two hundred, what happens.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
She per their terms, she could give the winner of
the raffle fifty percent of the revenue from the raffle,
keep forty and the cottage. So that must mean raffle
takes ten because.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah, right, so I get to keep the cottage and
forty percent, but the winner gets fifty percent of the
revenue whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
So if you got to just under two hundred thousand dollars.
They would get one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
What's the downside? There is no downside. The only downside
is it doesn't sell.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But who cares?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Well, if you're trying to unload.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
It, yeah, but if you're just trying to see what
how much you can get, do it is illegal?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
It almost does seem that seems a little sketchy.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Worst case scenario is I'm making forty percent of what
we raise. The loser gets the person who won the raffle,
but we didn't get enough money. Yeah, they get fifty percent. Wow,
and raffle gets ten percent. You can't lose. Why doesn't
everybody try? Anybody that's telling your house, why aren't they
(05:33):
trying with raffle? By the way, is it legal to
raffle off your house in America? Probably not, Like I
know this is going on in Ireland.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I know you can raffle off like a weekend getaway.
That's different. You don't own the plane, no, no, no,
If it does, people do that, I'll see that at
blind oh blind auctions.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Yeah, but you're yes, you're getting it for the weekend.
Guess that's not a raffle, though in some cases they are.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
This is saying raffles are often categorized as gambling, which
would be heavily regulated. So maybe that's why.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
You wouldn't gamble. Oh is it like the lottery is gambling?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah? Oh, I will say this. So she actually, the
organizer of the raffle, actually made one point four million dollars.
What but there was the ten percent to raffle, There
were fees to the affiliates, there were capital gains taxes
and a stamp duty.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Okay, so so was it.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That's why they're saying a million, because that's what she and.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
That's what that's what she pockets, right, which in three
years isn't bad from the one hundred and fiftys spent.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I do that all day.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So I'm looking at raffles website and there are I'm
listing on raffles website. Probably it is listed in the US.
I can't tell for all of them. Some say Thailand, beachfront,
pool villa.

Speaker 4 (07:07):
We own a beach front condo in Thailand for ten dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Yeah, yeah, you know what.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
They're not going to make more beach front land for
ten bucks. I'll let the I'll let the thing a road.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
I don't care. Seven dollars perfect.
Speaker 3 (07:22):

Speaker 1 (07:23):

Speaker 4 (07:27):

Speaker 1 (07:57):
I'm in, I'm in.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I could buy two raffle tickets for what I could
get in for Birmingham versus my Orca. I don't have
a huge desire to live in my Orca. I also
don't have a huge desire to live in Thailand. But
for four dollars, why wouldn't I?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
This is a luxury villa?
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Eh? What is that?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
That's another Thailand listening.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Are you serious? I get on that for four dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Oh, the Thailand one was seven dollars.
Speaker 7 (08:21):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
So then once you enter, does it tell you how
many entrants they're hoping to get?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Like?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Are you aware of the goal?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I have died? Don't. Oh?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
So is it like GoFundMe, oh, where you'll get your
money back if they are well?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
No, no, no, oh?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Kickstarter? Kickstarter is where you get your money back. But
does it tell you, like go fund me of like
what our goal is?
Speaker 3 (08:47):
I'm looking for it. I don't. I don't see it.
But even if it's heavily regulated, what do I need
to do to make this happen domestically?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Just do it well?
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Diane said, there are restrictions fsbo.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I'm raffling.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Frbo.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Yeah, for raffle by owner.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Oh my god, you'd make so much money.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Yes, and you can't lose money, Diane, I can't tell
what face you're making.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Here, because there's got to be a catch. This has
got to be a scam. No, I don't understand it
because it's it is so you can't raffle it off.
It just seems too good to be true.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
And they always say if something says it's too good
to be true, and I'm told.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
But then Rascal Flats wrote that song that said, this
time too good is true.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Oh there you go, they're irish. What part of the wait,
what part's throwing you off? Is it the if we
don't make the number?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah? That and how oh well I sold these raffle
tickets and the house that I paid one hundred and
fifty k for I made a million dollars.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Because if everybody buys, like for example, for example, let
me break it down. If you go to if you
go to a Washington Capital's game, if you walk in,
you'll hear.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
The people in the in the concourse fifty fifty raffle.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Right, So you buy a raffle ticket, you get half
of the winnings and half goes to charity or a
charity whatever, And that could get up to eight, nine, ten, eleven,
twenty thousand dollars. If you go to a game in Edmonton,
their fifty to fifty raffle gets.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
So all you need is a lot of people that
buy the raffle tickets. Apparently this cabin in Ireland with hot.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
And It's kind of like, so twelve on your side
does the Saint Jude Dream Home every year where they
build a single family home, and aren't they raffling it off?
So would it be okay if we had a charity
tie in?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah? But how much money are they taking? Listen?
Speaker 4 (10:55):
I love the National Center for Missing un Exploited Kids,
but how much money are you taking out of my pocket?
I'm just trying to sell a house. Raffle ten percent exploited.
Next thing, you know, I'm not making a million.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Year money to make money.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Oh they're giving that away soon. June twenty sixth How
much are the tickets? They sold out immediately?
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Did they really?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Because this is smart, No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You got it? Don't cap your tickets? Get more money?
Oh my god, Saint Jude dumb?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
They were mis see how much they were.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
M that's a nice house. Is that the one that
the students build?
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No, they have like a real team. Go out there.
Oh did they take away?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Why would you cap the tickets? Why would you?
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I think that makes people think that they have a
better chance.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
No they don't.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Yeah they do.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
No, you tell me that all the time, and I
buy lottery tickets I'm buying the tonight.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
But if but if you hear it, they're only selling
like two hundred tickets, you're more apt to get in
on it. My god, it's great. O.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yeah, but how much were they one hundred dollars?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
I'd rather sell a million tickets for fifty dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
It's sold out. So if you want, I can sell donate?
Now would you like to just donate?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
No, wait for the next house?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Donate?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
What am I getting? Hi? Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 6 (12:21):
Hey, good morning, it's this thing?
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (12:22):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Who's this?
Speaker 6 (12:24):
Hey? This is Marianda.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
How are you doing good? Hey? Can we raffle? Like?
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Have you ever tried to buy a raffled house?
Speaker 6 (12:32):
I have never tried to buy a raffled house. But
probably about ten years ago in Hinton, West Virginia, I believe,
right on the either Green Buyer or New River, there
was this enormous beautiful log estate so to speak, like
a log home, and they tried to raffle their house
(12:55):
because they tried to sell it, but it was the
price was entirely too high for the area, for to speaking,
nobody was making offers, so they tried to raffle it
and they sold ten dollars tickets for like a year,
year and a half, and unfortunately it ended they were
unable to sell enough tickets to make enough money for
(13:16):
it to be worth it for them.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Yeah, I'd rather be front property in Thailand be front.
So after a year, by the way, that's too long,
that's too long. This woman at DAYD bought the Irish tickets.
She totally forgot and that was only a couple of months.
(13:40):
A year's too long. I'm not going to sit on
raffle tickets for a year and a half.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
Now.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
It hopes that my view listen, I like the new river,
but I'm not sitting on that for a year and
a half.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I just think it was the.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Sellers were sitting and dragging their feet because just they
weren't getting the ticket.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Sales that they Yeah, but at that point you just
gotta go I'm not you know, my my property's not hot,
and then just take it down and split the money,
thank you, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Split the money with the winner.
Speaker 3 (14:10):

you're in the UK, the US, or anywhere in between.

and legal to host competitions online. Yes, with Rafhall, you
don't need to invest in tech infrastructure or even lawyers.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
No. No, so I thought.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Maybe there was gonna be a catch where we couldn't
even enter because we are in the States.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
No, we're good.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Fine, Yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
You know who?
Speaker 4 (14:38):
I cut out lawyers red tapers because you brought up
that the weird thing with the citizenship and the winner
being half Irish or whatever you said, and that concerned me,
right because I don't know if I have lineage on
my father's side for Portugal.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
But it doesn't matter. I'll tell you what how long?
How long?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
How long is a raffle? Does it say how long
you have to set it for? Or how long these
ones that are up are going for?
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah? Like what is the average raffle time?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Let me click here, Let's do the Portugal one.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
When a villa with it's got a pool dieyeh, I
know it's got a pool.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
The sweepstakes, this one ends in September September or oh
they have a cap or when the last ticket is sold.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
By the whoa no open. People are stupid.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
They want one hundred and twenty thousand tickets at how
much they are? Wasn't it four bucks?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Four times zero zero, four times two is eight, four
times one is four. So that's four hundred and eighty
thousand dollars in ticket sales.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
How much is the houseworth? I'm telling you that's not much.
That's not much.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Well, you think that they're doing the math wrong on
their end?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah? Or did I just do it wrong on my end?
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Like why would you only sell half a million dollars
worth of Look at that view or that's got to
be shoddy, that's gotta be or it's like in the
worst part of town. So you just think they shouldn't
cap the tickets. Why would you cap the tickets?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
You were saying that for twelve on your side.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
Yeah, why, I don't understand why you would do that. Oh,
we capped it, so everybody feels like they have a
better chance. No, make it limitless. The lottery doesn't cap it.
I feel like people get in lined for that.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Damn fully furnished with all purchase taxes and legal fees included.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Yeah, because I'm not gonna start now. I gotta worry
about getting a sofa over there.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
They are going to take the artwork on the walls.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
With cold take it. I don't like your art anyway.
You got horrible take.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, look at this view.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
Oh yes, I don't.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Even know what that outdoor area is called, like a
cumchie or something like that.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Isn't that what it is? What the cumpchi?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Isn't it like one of those beds with like the
crazy posts on it?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Am I a canopy?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
No?
Speaker 4 (16:58):
No, isn't it a Kumchi's right, Dian, It's like a
big kimchi.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
That's that's that's cabbine.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I've never heard of your word.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
No, that's one of the few foods I don't like.
I'm embarrassed by that.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
It looks it looks like very old Japanese or Nate
where it's like it's almost looks like a dojo where
they knocked all the doors down and put up like
the like posters, beds and stuff.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Look that up.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I don't see that line three?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Hi Elliott, the morning's Scotland. Yeleen, that's not for me?
Well how much?
Speaker 7 (17:37):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Who's this?
Speaker 8 (17:39):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Elliott?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
It's Ben Hey? What's up? Ben Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
So with the raffles in the US, you can charge
for them just like the lottery, but that's considered gambling.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's you charge for every ticket.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
If you want it to be legal, you do have
to have an option to get a free ticket. Otherwise
it's considered gambling.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Wait, so wait, how does somebody get a free ticket?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
A lot of people will just set up a website.
You just you know, put your name and email address
in and then you know, you get your free ticket.
But otherwise they'll you know, charge you for whatever the
tickets are. Some people got in trouble for doing it
without a free option, and then you know, obviously the
authority started looking into it.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Is that like do you buy something else and then
get the ticket as the bonus is around?
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Oh my question was going to be, is it just
one like you have to give away one free ticket
or everybody has to be able to get a free ticket?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
I think it's one per person. Otherwise it's considered gambling.
And then the buying this stuff as an entry, you
can still do that, but then most of those websites,
like they'll also have like if you look really really
fine prane at the bottom, they'll make oh, click here
for your free you know submission instead of having to
buy something.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Let me tell you, house owner Elliott will treat it
like the old publisher's clearing house.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
If you didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
If you didn't like buy the or pay the extra
amount to get the Jaguar that you wanted, you were
not or the magazine subscription you had no chance of winning.
They never showed up at somebody's house and they were like, oh,
this is awesome. I didn't even buy a magazine or anything.
I got mined for free. I wouldn't give.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Mike to somebody who got it for free. That annoys me.
All right, very good. I don't like that rule.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
So in you're gonna like this in smaller print, even
though it says when the last ticket is sold, then
it explains that they want to receive a minimum number
of entries.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
How many do they want to receive?
Speaker 4 (19:46):
It differs for easelessings. Oh I see, I see, But
that's the.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Right way to do it. Now you are going to
be upset.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Oh yeah, tell me there's a minimum, but don't tell
me there's a maximum.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah. So it's a little They tell you when the
last ticket is sold, and then below that they give
you the minimum that the listing agent or host would
like to hit or it's divided in the way we
discussed right fifty forty ten. But this so the flat
in Scotland, I believe it was Aberdeen. It is doing
(20:19):
ten percent of the host revenue directly to UNISEF.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Of the who.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Do the what the wait hosts?
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Oh, that's their money.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Yeah, dude, I don't care, give it to un Shove
it in your ass.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I don't care. That's your money. You do what you
want with. You're not taking mine. You're not taking mine.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Let me see if they're looking for global ambassadors.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
No, I mean, listen, that may be a great company,
but what that that's gonna make me one?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
You know, I was iffy on the Scotland house. But
since they're donating the UNISEF, no donator whoever you want?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, you know that's exactly why Twelve partners with Saint Jude.
When you tie in a charity, people are more likely
to buy raffle tickets. Why because they know it's a
good cause.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yes, I think Saint Jude's fine. I think I don't.
I'll tell you what. The people in marketing at Saint
Jude are not very smart.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
Do you think I enjoyed buying a wrapping paper for
one hundred dollars from my kids school when I could
go to the dollar store.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
No, but you did that were a cause? No, you
did it for your kids.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
It wasn't like oh no, no, no, no, hold on,
let me see, is what's WNL selling theirs for?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
You did it for your kids?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Oh my god?
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Could you please take the children off the computer. That's
for the host, that's not for me.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
So I will tell let's see.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
This is sorry about your class.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Sorry children.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeah, I just I just want to make sure I
let them know specific which part of the world were
they targeting. Okay, these are the ones that were fleeing
violence in eastern d r C.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Right. Uh, that the money is in that person's ass.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
They're in Scotland. The flat listed on RAFA it's in average.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You gotta hide that cash from the war lords. But whatever, No,
donate to what you want. I don't care, said, do
you want to donate now to Unia? No, I'm buying
after I buy my ticket. I already know somebody else
that's donating line for No, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Hi Elliott in the morning.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
By the way, this host this hosting donating and nobody.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I'm sorry. Yes, who is this?
Speaker 9 (22:51):
This is a mark calling from Colorado.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh yeah, what can I do for you?
Speaker 4 (22:57):
So?
Speaker 9 (22:57):
I recently participated in two grapples that we're giving off
three homes here in Colorado. One was for a house
in winter Park, the ski resort, and the other was
for a house in Castle Rock. And it was hosted
by the Boys and Girls Club of Colorado and Children's Hospital.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Of Colorado, an excellent organization.
Speaker 9 (23:19):
Yes, unfortunately I didn't win either. But the Castle Rock
House didn't get to their goal. So they did the
thing where they gave away fifty percent of the proceeds
to the winner.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Right and did did? They get forty percent of the proceeds?
And then the Raffle company got ten.
Speaker 9 (23:41):
I'm not too sure. When I didn't win, I didn't
pay too much more attention.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
By the way, why don't we a thank you, sir?
Why don't we open our own raffle company? We get
ten percent whether it sells or doesn't.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Well, it's like, why not open up a consignment shop?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
No, because that's all like, that's up trasgusting jeans.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
I want a house off the coast of Panama.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Next to nothing.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
By the way, that's beautiful. That is that is beautiful.
How much is that one? How much is that one?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's gonna be a little less than fifteen dollars?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Is the host donating?
Speaker 3 (24:18):
They are?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, they're not good.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
If you have a boat, you can anger it right
to the front of the house.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Yeah, we wrap it for a boat too.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I'm sure you can do it on raffole.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Line seven. Hi, yellie at the morning?
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Hi is this me? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Hire's this.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (24:42):
This is Ian from Richmond. Yes, sir, so we had
a Saint Jude's tom raffled off in our neighborhood and
as you were saying, the tickets are like one hundred dollars.
The downside, if you want to look at it that way,
is when you win, in order to take possession of
the house, you have to pay taxes on the value
(25:04):
of the house. No, because it's considered it's considered income
to you. So for like in our neighborhood, the house
was valued at five hundred thousand dollars, so the winner
had to come up with about one hundred and twenty
five thousand dollars on top of.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
One hundred dollars I already spent.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
Huh, yeah, so most people go get a mortgage. Unfortunately,
this person couldn't qualify for the mortgage, so they ended
up working out a deal with her where they sold
the house and then gave her the proceeds. But most
of the time it's written in there that if you
can't pay the taxes, you can't take possession.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
What's the key, Just give me the cash equivalent.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Yeah, I mean I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I don't like that.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Yet they did so my so I'm trying to do
a good thing here by them. And it's one hundred
and now I got to come up with one hundred
thousand dollars for that.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I would have just donated one hundred.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Grand to Saint Jude, gotten a parade.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
Yeah, but you didn't get a house in that case.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Well that's a good point also.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Hell for one hundred grand, I could, I could, I could,
I could own that wherever that UNISEF money was going.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
That's the Demotic Republic of Congo.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Thank you? All right, very good, very good? So is
that the hook? Hey?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Can you check back to your your RAF all yes,
bids you've already put in.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Do I have to pay the taxes? I don't want
to do that. No, isn't that no fees? Didn't they
say it's no fees, no lawyers, no fees, no nothing.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Oh yeah, the raff all said that for for hosting it.
But then the one listing said they included the taxes
or would take care of them. Oh, Ali Sykes from
bringing me the Horizon endorses this webside. That was weird.
Where is your listing? We've clicked on so many? Where's
(27:01):
the original one? That dialect at Myorca?
Speaker 5 (27:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (27:04):
Yeah, do I have to pay taxes?
Speaker 2 (27:06):
I'm I bet you do.
Speaker 1 (27:09):
You don't know.
Speaker 2 (27:11):
There's there's catches to everything.
Speaker 4 (27:13):
You don't know that you don't know. I just found
the big one for for Saint Jude. Yeah, that was
kind of a I don't like hearing that great cloud
over what I thought was great.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
That's why I told you I'm not doing it.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, but it's eleven dollars to dream.
Speaker 4 (27:27):
The Yeah, but then said on top of I spent
I spent one hundred dollars on the ticket.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
Did you have the view of the sea. Was that
the yes villa you liked?
Speaker 2 (27:38):
Now mine's the cliff side villa in Majorca.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
Oh, it's a different one. Let's see what does it
say about taxes?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
I'll tell you what.
Speaker 4 (27:46):
Nobody in my Orka wants the whole lot of their
houses fully needed on mortgage free, all furnishings and appliances.
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Included mortgage, legal fees and taxes covered covered.
Speaker 1 (27:57):

I need.
Speaker 4 (28:03):

taxes I covered.
Speaker 1 (28:09):

Speaker 4 (32:11):
Windows just pretend it's a Clothes pretend it's, clothed
Have we ever talked about raff all? We did not raffle,
raff all, r af all, raff all.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
I don't even know where that is, I don't think so.
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Does that sound familiar? Does that ring a bell?
Speaker 3 (00:15):
It does not raff all raff all. That's weird to
even type it in r af all. I imagine it's
just the combination of all in raffle exactly exactly, you
know what I want to try to get.
Speaker 4 (00:32):
So, I was reading about this couple. They bought for
twelve dollars and sixty seven cents. They bought three raffle tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
Huh. They now own a house in Ireland.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
They live here, but they have a house in Ireland.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
They live in Dayton, Ohio.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
Oh yeah, they they live in Dayton and they bought
raffle tickets.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
I didn't know you could raffle off a house.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Why would somebody raffle off a house. They don't need
the money from the sale of a house.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
They might make more on the raffle oh bing go, Really,
how much more are they making if this is how
some people are doing.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
So, I think raff all. I hope I'm saying it right.
I think raff all gets ten percent. Maybe it's it's
it's somewhere. It's somewhere between zero and ten percent. But
then they sell all the raffle tickets. In the raffle tickets,
they you sell as many as you want. Now, I
(01:27):
don't know what happens if you don't sell enough, but
you get but yeah, you can end up raffling off
your house and you make Tyler's right, Yeah, you can make.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
You can make so much more, like.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Listen, because everybody's only paying like what like is it
seven bucks a ticket? Something like that?
Speaker 1 (01:46):
I think it maybe you set the price. I don't know.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I didn't dig through it. I've never heard of raffling
off a house. No, but I know a couple from Dayton, Ohio.
They spent twelve dollars and sixty seven cents and on
four tickets, and they just they just got themselves a
nice cottage in Ireland.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
I can tell you that for that cottage, the person
who organized the raffle bought it for one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars in twenty twenty two. Wait, they bought
the cottage, bought the cottage three for one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
Wait, hold on, I'm going to do some math. Go ahead,
one hundred and fifty. I'm just going to put a
k there in twenty twenty two. It is now twenty
twenty five, and they raffled it off four.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
One million dollars.
Speaker 4 (02:33):
Oh my god, I'm going to raffle off a place
in Arlington right now. Why wouldn't everybody just raffle their
house off? Has anybody ever raffled their house?
Speaker 2 (02:44):
I've never heard of that.
Speaker 3 (02:45):
Woman in Ohio, though, fall upon a listing for an
Irish cottage.
Speaker 4 (02:53):
Last October, the twenty nine year old US Marine Corps
Marine Corps officer applied for her Irish citizenship through lineage
on her father's side.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
It was approved a month later.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
In February, she and her husband, Michael, also a Marine officer,
and their two toddlers, transferred from their duty station in
North Carolina to Dayton, Ohio. Three weeks later, Kathleen gave
birth to their third child. They started preparing for graduate
studies and engineering. She vaguely remembers buying a few raffle
(03:29):
tickets in an online raffle back in December.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
She just bought them online. Oh my god, but.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Because her family has Irish roots, Yeah, she bought them online.
Somebody had to call her, Like when they announced the winner,
somebody had to call her and go, hey, Kathleen, didn't you.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Buy Raffle tickets? And she was like, oh yeah, like
you won, She's like, oh my damn. So she now
owns it.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
If your goal falls short, Raffle allows you to give
the winner fifty percent of the revenue, keep forty and
the original item listed.
Speaker 1 (04:06):
Wait say that again.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
So let's say let's say she's got to get to
a Like, let's say the person who sold the cottage,
they bought it for one hundred and fifty thousand, they
want to sell it for two hundred thousand.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
That's the minimum.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
I'm making this up right, right, right, okay, So if
we don't get to two hundred, what happens.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
She per their terms, she could give the winner of
the raffle fifty percent of the revenue from the raffle,
keep forty and the cottage. So that must mean raffle
takes ten because.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
Yeah, right, so I get to keep the cottage and
forty percent, but the winner gets fifty percent of the
revenue whatever it is.
Speaker 3 (04:49):
So if you got to just under two hundred thousand dollars.
They would get one hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
What's the downside? There is no downside. The only downside
is it doesn't sell.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
But who cares?
Speaker 3 (05:01):
Well, if you're trying to unload.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
It, yeah, but if you're just trying to see what
how much you can get, do it is illegal?
Speaker 3 (05:09):
It almost does seem that seems a little sketchy.
Speaker 5 (05:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Worst case scenario is I'm making forty percent of what
we raise. The loser gets the person who won the raffle,
but we didn't get enough money. Yeah, they get fifty percent. Wow,
and raffle gets ten percent. You can't lose. Why doesn't
everybody try? Anybody that's telling your house, why aren't they
(05:33):
trying with raffle? By the way, is it legal to
raffle off your house in America? Probably not, Like I
know this is going on in Ireland.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
I know you can raffle off like a weekend getaway.
That's different. You don't own the plane, no, no, no,
If it does, people do that, I'll see that at
blind oh blind auctions.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
Yeah, but you're yes, you're getting it for the weekend.
Guess that's not a raffle, though in some cases they are.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
This is saying raffles are often categorized as gambling, which
would be heavily regulated. So maybe that's why.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
You wouldn't gamble. Oh is it like the lottery is gambling?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah? Oh, I will say this. So she actually, the
organizer of the raffle, actually made one point four million dollars.
What but there was the ten percent to raffle, There
were fees to the affiliates, there were capital gains taxes
and a stamp duty.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Okay, so so was it.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
That's why they're saying a million, because that's what she and.
Speaker 4 (06:36):
That's what that's what she pockets, right, which in three
years isn't bad from the one hundred and fiftys spent.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
I do that all day.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So I'm looking at raffles website and there are I'm
listing on raffles website. Probably it is listed in the US.
I can't tell for all of them. Some say Thailand, beachfront,
pool villa.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
How much much is a ticket? How much is a ticket?
Let's do it.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
It's like ten bucks?
Speaker 5 (07:03):
Do it?
Speaker 4 (07:03):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Do it? What's the worst thing that happens?
Speaker 4 (07:07):
We own a beach front condo in Thailand for ten dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Yeah, yeah, you know what.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
They're not going to make more beach front land for
ten bucks. I'll let the I'll let the thing a road.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
I don't care. Seven dollars perfect.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
I needed to convert.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
I'm tied to.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Uh some of this stuff. Here is a Oh my god?
Can we can we buy a raffle ticket?
Speaker 1 (07:33):
Please?
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Is it cliff side Villain, Myorca?
Speaker 1 (07:36):
How much? How much is a ticket?
Speaker 6 (07:39):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (07:39):
I don't know?
Speaker 3 (07:41):
I see here? This is a villain Portugal?
Speaker 1 (07:44):
All right?
Speaker 3 (07:45):
This is an apartment in uh Birmingham. We could go
for getting it for.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Birmingham hot right now? How much is a raffle ticket?
Speaker 3 (07:54):
How much is a rattle than five dollars?
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yeah? My York is less than eleven.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
I'm in, I'm in.
Speaker 6 (07:58):
Oh.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I could buy two raffle tickets for what I could
get in for Birmingham versus my Orca. I don't have
a huge desire to live in my Orca. I also
don't have a huge desire to live in Thailand. But
for four dollars, why wouldn't I?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
This is a luxury villa?
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Eh? What is that?
Speaker 3 (08:13):
That's another Thailand listening.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Are you serious? I get on that for four dollars.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Oh, the Thailand one was seven dollars.
Speaker 7 (08:21):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
So then once you enter, does it tell you how
many entrants they're hoping to get?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Like?
Speaker 3 (08:30):
Are you aware of the goal?
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I have died? Don't. Oh?
Speaker 4 (08:35):
So is it like GoFundMe, oh, where you'll get your
money back if they are well?
Speaker 1 (08:40):
No, no, no, oh?
Speaker 4 (08:42):
Kickstarter? Kickstarter is where you get your money back. But
does it tell you, like go fund me of like
what our goal is?
Speaker 3 (08:47):
I'm looking for it. I don't. I don't see it.
But even if it's heavily regulated, what do I need
to do to make this happen domestically?
Speaker 1 (08:56):
Just do it well?
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Diane said, there are restrictions fsbo.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I'm raffling.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Frbo.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
Yeah, for raffle by owner.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
Oh my god, you'd make so much money.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Yes, and you can't lose money, Diane, I can't tell
what face you're making.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Here, because there's got to be a catch. This has
got to be a scam. No, I don't understand it
because it's it is so you can't raffle it off.
It just seems too good to be true.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
And they always say if something says it's too good
to be true, and I'm told.
Speaker 3 (09:34):
But then Rascal Flats wrote that song that said, this
time too good is true.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
Oh there you go, they're irish. What part of the wait,
what part's throwing you off? Is it the if we
don't make the number?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Yeah? That and how oh well I sold these raffle
tickets and the house that I paid one hundred and
fifty k for I made a million dollars.
Speaker 4 (09:52):
Because if everybody buys, like for example, for example, let
me break it down. If you go to if you
go to a Washington Capital's game, if you walk in,
you'll hear.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
The people in the in the concourse fifty fifty raffle.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Right, So you buy a raffle ticket, you get half
of the winnings and half goes to charity or a
charity whatever, And that could get up to eight, nine, ten, eleven,
twenty thousand dollars. If you go to a game in Edmonton,
their fifty to fifty raffle gets.
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Up to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
So all you need is a lot of people that
buy the raffle tickets. Apparently this cabin in Ireland with hot.
Speaker 3 (10:36):
And It's kind of like, so twelve on your side
does the Saint Jude Dream Home every year where they
build a single family home, and aren't they raffling it off?
So would it be okay if we had a charity
tie in?
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Yeah? But how much money are they taking? Listen?
Speaker 4 (10:55):
I love the National Center for Missing un Exploited Kids,
but how much money are you taking out of my pocket?
I'm just trying to sell a house. Raffle ten percent exploited.
Next thing, you know, I'm not making a million.
Speaker 2 (11:08):
Year money to make money.
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Oh they're giving that away soon. June twenty sixth How
much are the tickets? They sold out immediately?
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Did they really?
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Because this is smart, No, it's not.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You got it? Don't cap your tickets? Get more money?
Oh my god, Saint Jude dumb?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
They were mis see how much they were.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
M that's a nice house. Is that the one that
the students build?
Speaker 3 (11:38):
No, they have like a real team. Go out there.
Oh did they take away?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Why would you cap the tickets? Why would you?
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I think that makes people think that they have a
better chance.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
No they don't.
Speaker 3 (11:50):
Yeah they do.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
No, you tell me that all the time, and I
buy lottery tickets I'm buying the tonight.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
But if but if you hear it, they're only selling
like two hundred tickets, you're more apt to get in
on it. My god, it's great. O.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Yeah, but how much were they one hundred dollars?
Speaker 4 (12:03):
I'd rather sell a million tickets for fifty dollars.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
It's sold out. So if you want, I can sell donate?
Now would you like to just donate?
Speaker 1 (12:11):
No, wait for the next house?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
Donate?
Speaker 1 (12:16):
What am I getting? Hi? Elliott in the morning?
Speaker 6 (12:21):
Hey, good morning, it's this thing?
Speaker 1 (12:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 7 (12:22):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Who's this?
Speaker 6 (12:24):
Hey? This is Marianda.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
How are you doing good? Hey? Can we raffle? Like?
Speaker 6 (12:28):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Have you ever tried to buy a raffled house?
Speaker 6 (12:32):
I have never tried to buy a raffled house. But
probably about ten years ago in Hinton, West Virginia, I believe,
right on the either Green Buyer or New River, there
was this enormous beautiful log estate so to speak, like
a log home, and they tried to raffle their house
(12:55):
because they tried to sell it, but it was the
price was entirely too high for the area, for to speaking,
nobody was making offers, so they tried to raffle it
and they sold ten dollars tickets for like a year,
year and a half, and unfortunately it ended they were
unable to sell enough tickets to make enough money for
(13:16):
it to be worth it for them.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
Yeah, I'd rather be front property in Thailand be front.
So after a year, by the way, that's too long,
that's too long. This woman at DAYD bought the Irish tickets.
She totally forgot and that was only a couple of months.
(13:40):
A year's too long. I'm not going to sit on
raffle tickets for a year and a half.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
Now.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
It hopes that my view listen, I like the new river,
but I'm not sitting on that for a year and
a half.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 5 (13:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
I just think it was the.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
Sellers were sitting and dragging their feet because just they
weren't getting the ticket.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Sales that they Yeah, but at that point you just
gotta go I'm not you know, my my property's not hot,
and then just take it down and split the money,
thank you, ma'am.
Speaker 1 (14:08):
Split the money with the winner.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Whether it's a Raffle prize competition or sweepstakes, or whether
you're in the UK, the US, or anywhere in between.
Raffhall removes all the red tape, making it easy, safe,
and legal to host competitions online. Yes, with Rafhall, you
don't need to invest in tech infrastructure or even lawyers.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
No. No, so I thought.
Speaker 4 (14:31):
Maybe there was gonna be a catch where we couldn't
even enter because we are in the States.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
No, we're good.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Fine, Yeah, and.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
You know who?
Speaker 4 (14:38):
I cut out lawyers red tapers because you brought up
that the weird thing with the citizenship and the winner
being half Irish or whatever you said, and that concerned me,
right because I don't know if I have lineage on
my father's side for Portugal.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
But it doesn't matter. I'll tell you what how long?
How long?
Speaker 4 (14:58):
How long is a raffle? Does it say how long
you have to set it for? Or how long these
ones that are up are going for?
Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah? Like what is the average raffle time?
Speaker 3 (15:09):
Let me click here, Let's do the Portugal one.
Speaker 4 (15:14):
When a villa with it's got a pool dieyeh, I
know it's got a pool.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
The sweepstakes, this one ends in September September or oh
they have a cap or when the last ticket is sold.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
By the whoa no open. People are stupid.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
They want one hundred and twenty thousand tickets at how
much they are? Wasn't it four bucks?
Speaker 1 (15:39):
Four times zero zero, four times two is eight, four
times one is four. So that's four hundred and eighty
thousand dollars in ticket sales.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
How much is the houseworth? I'm telling you that's not much.
That's not much.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Well, you think that they're doing the math wrong on
their end?
Speaker 1 (15:58):
Yeah? Or did I just do it wrong on my end?
Speaker 4 (16:00):
Like why would you only sell half a million dollars
worth of Look at that view or that's got to
be shoddy, that's gotta be or it's like in the
worst part of town. So you just think they shouldn't
cap the tickets. Why would you cap the tickets?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
You were saying that for twelve on your side.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
Yeah, why, I don't understand why you would do that. Oh,
we capped it, so everybody feels like they have a
better chance. No, make it limitless. The lottery doesn't cap it.
I feel like people get in lined for that.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
Damn fully furnished with all purchase taxes and legal fees included.
Speaker 4 (16:30):
Yeah, because I'm not gonna start now. I gotta worry
about getting a sofa over there.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
They are going to take the artwork on the walls.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
With cold take it. I don't like your art anyway.
You got horrible take.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yeah, look at this view.
Speaker 5 (16:43):
Oh yes, I don't.
Speaker 4 (16:45):
Even know what that outdoor area is called, like a
cumchie or something like that.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Isn't that what it is? What the cumpchi?
Speaker 4 (16:51):
Isn't it like one of those beds with like the
crazy posts on it?
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Am I a canopy?
Speaker 1 (16:57):
No?
Speaker 4 (16:58):
No, isn't it a Kumchi's right, Dian, It's like a
big kimchi.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
That's that's that's cabbine.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
I've never heard of your word.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
No, that's one of the few foods I don't like.
I'm embarrassed by that.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
It looks it looks like very old Japanese or Nate
where it's like it's almost looks like a dojo where
they knocked all the doors down and put up like
the like posters, beds and stuff.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Look that up.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
I don't see that line three?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Hi Elliott, the morning's Scotland. Yeleen, that's not for me?
Well how much?
Speaker 7 (17:37):
Hi?
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Who's this?
Speaker 8 (17:39):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Elliott?
Speaker 1 (17:39):
It's Ben Hey? What's up? Ben Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:42):
So with the raffles in the US, you can charge
for them just like the lottery, but that's considered gambling.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
It's you charge for every ticket.
Speaker 5 (17:52):
If you want it to be legal, you do have
to have an option to get a free ticket. Otherwise
it's considered gambling.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Wait, so wait, how does somebody get a free ticket?
Speaker 5 (18:04):
A lot of people will just set up a website.
You just you know, put your name and email address
in and then you know, you get your free ticket.
But otherwise they'll you know, charge you for whatever the
tickets are. Some people got in trouble for doing it
without a free option, and then you know, obviously the
authority started looking into it.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Is that like do you buy something else and then
get the ticket as the bonus is around?
Speaker 5 (18:29):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (18:29):
Oh my question was going to be, is it just
one like you have to give away one free ticket
or everybody has to be able to get a free ticket?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
I think it's one per person. Otherwise it's considered gambling.
And then the buying this stuff as an entry, you
can still do that, but then most of those websites,
like they'll also have like if you look really really
fine prane at the bottom, they'll make oh, click here
for your free you know submission instead of having to
buy something.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Let me tell you, house owner Elliott will treat it
like the old publisher's clearing house.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
If you didn't.
Speaker 4 (19:06):
If you didn't like buy the or pay the extra
amount to get the Jaguar that you wanted, you were
not or the magazine subscription you had no chance of winning.
They never showed up at somebody's house and they were like, oh,
this is awesome. I didn't even buy a magazine or anything.
I got mined for free. I wouldn't give.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
Mike to somebody who got it for free. That annoys me.
All right, very good. I don't like that rule.
Speaker 3 (19:34):
So in you're gonna like this in smaller print, even
though it says when the last ticket is sold, then
it explains that they want to receive a minimum number
of entries.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
How many do they want to receive?
Speaker 4 (19:46):
It differs for easelessings. Oh I see, I see, But
that's the.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Right way to do it. Now you are going to
be upset.
Speaker 4 (19:53):
Oh yeah, tell me there's a minimum, but don't tell
me there's a maximum.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Yeah. So it's a little They tell you when the
last ticket is sold, and then below that they give
you the minimum that the listing agent or host would
like to hit or it's divided in the way we
discussed right fifty forty ten. But this so the flat
in Scotland, I believe it was Aberdeen. It is doing
(20:19):
ten percent of the host revenue directly to UNISEF.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Of the who.
Speaker 3 (20:28):
Do the what the wait hosts?
Speaker 1 (20:31):
Oh, that's their money.
Speaker 4 (20:32):
Yeah, dude, I don't care, give it to un Shove
it in your ass.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
I don't care. That's your money. You do what you
want with. You're not taking mine. You're not taking mine.
Speaker 3 (20:43):
Let me see if they're looking for global ambassadors.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
No, I mean, listen, that may be a great company,
but what that that's gonna make me one?
Speaker 1 (20:54):
You know, I was iffy on the Scotland house. But
since they're donating the UNISEF, no donator whoever you want?
Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, you know that's exactly why Twelve partners with Saint Jude.
When you tie in a charity, people are more likely
to buy raffle tickets. Why because they know it's a
good cause.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
Yes, I think Saint Jude's fine. I think I don't.
I'll tell you what. The people in marketing at Saint
Jude are not very smart.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
Do you think I enjoyed buying a wrapping paper for
one hundred dollars from my kids school when I could
go to the dollar store.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
No, but you did that were a cause? No, you
did it for your kids.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
It wasn't like oh no, no, no, no, hold on,
let me see, is what's WNL selling theirs for?
Speaker 1 (21:37):
You did it for your kids?
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Oh my god?
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Could you please take the children off the computer. That's
for the host, that's not for me.
Speaker 3 (21:47):
So I will tell let's see.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
This is sorry about your class.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
Sorry children.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Yeah, I just I just want to make sure I
let them know specific which part of the world were
they targeting. Okay, these are the ones that were fleeing
violence in eastern d r C.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
Right. Uh, that the money is in that person's ass.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
They're in Scotland. The flat listed on RAFA it's in average.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
You gotta hide that cash from the war lords. But whatever, No,
donate to what you want. I don't care, said, do
you want to donate now to Unia? No, I'm buying
after I buy my ticket. I already know somebody else
that's donating line for No, I'm not doing that.
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Hi Elliott in the morning.
Speaker 4 (22:43):
By the way, this host this hosting donating and nobody.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
I'm sorry. Yes, who is this?
Speaker 9 (22:51):
This is a mark calling from Colorado.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Oh yeah, what can I do for you?
Speaker 4 (22:57):
So?
Speaker 9 (22:57):
I recently participated in two grapples that we're giving off
three homes here in Colorado. One was for a house
in winter Park, the ski resort, and the other was
for a house in Castle Rock. And it was hosted
by the Boys and Girls Club of Colorado and Children's Hospital.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
Of Colorado, an excellent organization.
Speaker 9 (23:19):
Yes, unfortunately I didn't win either. But the Castle Rock
House didn't get to their goal. So they did the
thing where they gave away fifty percent of the proceeds
to the winner.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Right and did did? They get forty percent of the proceeds?
And then the Raffle company got ten.
Speaker 9 (23:41):
I'm not too sure. When I didn't win, I didn't
pay too much more attention.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
By the way, why don't we a thank you, sir?
Why don't we open our own raffle company? We get
ten percent whether it sells or doesn't.
Speaker 3 (23:54):
Well, it's like, why not open up a consignment shop?
Speaker 1 (23:58):
No, because that's all like, that's up trasgusting jeans.
Speaker 3 (24:01):
I want a house off the coast of Panama.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Next to nothing.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
By the way, that's beautiful. That is that is beautiful.
How much is that one? How much is that one?
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's gonna be a little less than fifteen dollars?
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Is the host donating?
Speaker 3 (24:18):
They are?
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, they're not good.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
If you have a boat, you can anger it right
to the front of the house.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
Yeah, we wrap it for a boat too.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
I'm sure you can do it on raffole.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Line seven. Hi, yellie at the morning?
Speaker 5 (24:38):
Hi is this me? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Hire's this.
Speaker 6 (24:42):
Hi?
Speaker 8 (24:42):
This is Ian from Richmond. Yes, sir, so we had
a Saint Jude's tom raffled off in our neighborhood and
as you were saying, the tickets are like one hundred dollars.
The downside, if you want to look at it that way,
is when you win, in order to take possession of
the house, you have to pay taxes on the value
(25:04):
of the house. No, because it's considered it's considered income
to you. So for like in our neighborhood, the house
was valued at five hundred thousand dollars, so the winner
had to come up with about one hundred and twenty
five thousand dollars on top of.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
One hundred dollars I already spent.
Speaker 8 (25:23):
Huh, yeah, so most people go get a mortgage. Unfortunately,
this person couldn't qualify for the mortgage, so they ended
up working out a deal with her where they sold
the house and then gave her the proceeds. But most
of the time it's written in there that if you
can't pay the taxes, you can't take possession.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
What's the key, Just give me the cash equivalent.
Speaker 5 (25:48):
Yeah, I mean I don't like that.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I don't like that.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Yet they did so my so I'm trying to do
a good thing here by them. And it's one hundred
and now I got to come up with one hundred
thousand dollars for that.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I would have just donated one hundred.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Grand to Saint Jude, gotten a parade.
Speaker 8 (26:06):
Yeah, but you didn't get a house in that case.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Well that's a good point also.
Speaker 4 (26:10):
Hell for one hundred grand, I could, I could, I could,
I could own that wherever that UNISEF money was going.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
That's the Demotic Republic of Congo.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Thank you? All right, very good, very good? So is
that the hook? Hey?
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Can you check back to your your RAF all yes,
bids you've already put in.
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Do I have to pay the taxes? I don't want
to do that. No, isn't that no fees? Didn't they
say it's no fees, no lawyers, no fees, no nothing.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
Oh yeah, the raff all said that for for hosting it.
But then the one listing said they included the taxes
or would take care of them. Oh, Ali Sykes from
bringing me the Horizon endorses this webside. That was weird.
Where is your listing? We've clicked on so many? Where's
(27:01):
the original one? That dialect at Myorca?
Speaker 5 (27:04):

Speaker 2 (27:06):

Speaker 4 (27:13):
You don't know that you don't know. I just found
the big one for for Saint Jude. Yeah, that was
kind of a I don't like hearing that great cloud
over what I thought was great.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
That's why I told you I'm not doing it.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Yeah, but it's eleven dollars to dream.
Speaker 4 (27:27):

the yes villa you liked?
Speaker 2 (27:38):

say about taxes?
