Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to another episode. I tell you, so, what would
Americans really do for one million dollars? This is interesting, it's.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
It's a little not surprising to me, but not. I
don't know, is it.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Really worthing to do some of the stuff? And what
did you find kind of disappointing about it? There's a
lot of stuff I do for twenty bucks, right, bus
is twenty Yeah? I mean you know, I mean it
doesn't doesn't bother me anything to kind of put a
little cash in the pocket.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I think the sad thing is over forty percent of
people would walk out on whoever they're with, like romantically.
I assume that means boyfriend, girlfriend, husband, wife.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
That's totally fine, whatever, there's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Think about it.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
No, there's nothing wrong with that forty percent.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
I guess if you think about it, fifty percent of
marriages didn't divorce anything.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
And that's why there's nothing wrong with that. And Dubs,
you're giving me a look like you've never given me
a look before. Because I I love my wife, dear,
I would never do that. But for those that would,
it's cut and dry. They never loved them to begin with.
You love, So take your million and get out. That's true, right,
So I don't know how you do a conscious, a
conscience check on that, how they really feel about their spouse.
(01:14):
But if you are willing to walk out on your
relationship for a million dollars, there's no love there anyway. Yeah,
take the money and run.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
There probably was another ten percent who would have said
yes but wanted to lie on the survey.
Speaker 1 (01:26):
And you're doing the person a favor totally.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Yeah. And then if you.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Leave a relationship that you don't want to be in,
you're doing that person a favor. Yes, So you might
as well take your mill, get out, and good to go. Absolutely,
I'm not to sound cold about it, but otherwise staying
in something that you don't want to be in, no thanks.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
If it said something like eighty percent, I'd be like, wow,
society is and yeah, that would be really sad. So
I guess forty percent is not so bad. Sixty percent
of people would ditch technology entirely and live off the
grid for a million dollars.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
I think it sounds nice and romantic and super fun,
and I like being able to you can't do that,
But I don't think that they're thinking that through. If
you ditch technology entirely, you're gonna use so you're not
just giving up your phone. If you're doing that, you're
living off the grid. You suddenly have zero anything. I
mean you don't have running water. I don't think if
you don't have electricity at this point.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Right, you're only doing it for a year though, right, No.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
This is isn't it. It's like you get rid of
it forever. Yes, forever, you live off the grid forever.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
A million dollars doesn't I mean, would furely do it?
I know a million dollars, don't get me wrong. Is
a ton of money, yes, but to go the distance,
it's not a million unless you can keep your job.
But then you're technically on the grid. If you're if
you're going to work, you're using lights and you're using
Wi Fi.
Speaker 4 (02:42):
And living with the Amish count is living off the
grid because I'd go live with them.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Yeah, I think it does. Except I think they like
going to like n W and Dairy Queen and stuff
on Sundays and I.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
Couldn't go, and they still usually have.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
It's not uncommon deeper than the Amish. It's not uncommon
for Amish people to also be employed by people that
have technology also. I mean, like we've hired Amish people
to do jobs out at our farm before.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
They don't leave in the in the summertime, they do
not leave that air conditioning. They're like, oh, oh, this
is great. I don't know what it is, and I
can act like I do.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
But boys, I think one.
Speaker 3 (03:19):
Of the more surprising statistics I guess is forty one
percent of Americans would completely swear off intimacy for a
million dollars.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
So swear it off forever.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
You couldn't pay me enough.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
If you PLoP a million dollars on that right in
front of the board and said here you go, you'd
be like, Nope, I'm not.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
No, are you kidding me? That's part of the love
I have for my wife. Well, she can't keep her
hands off me. She can't. I mean seriously, I.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Mean, specimen, the more I look at you, the more
questions I have.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
That's what I was waiting for. You don't see the
want as I walked through these hallways, No.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
I don't. Fifteen percent of moving along admitted that they.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
Would frame a friend for a crime they didn't commit
to get a million dollars.
Speaker 1 (04:14):
Hell, yeah, I do that. In a second. Your ass
would be off the show in a second. Matter of fact,
I watched them. I think I have it on video.
What about you, Intimacy million bucks.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
I wouldn't give up any of this stuff for a
million dollars?
Speaker 1 (04:31):
All right, Intimacy dubs a million bikes?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
Nope, you can keep the money.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Well you want another kid too, right? Yep? In any
way it kind of helps with that. But I guess
you could. You know, there's other way? Yeah, you get it?
What else is on there?
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Well? Here, that's all I have anything.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
That I would pick so far, there's nothing yet picked here.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
I'll keep ye, you picked them?
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, that well that I guess. But that was but
only fifteen.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
Percent of people would do that.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
I thought they'd be higher. Uh, society is higher moral
than we do. They're they're sitting at how you're morol grond.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
So ten percent of people said that they would reject
the money if they couldn't share it with somebody. So
I assume, like, no, I could, I'm an only child,
give me it?
Speaker 2 (05:12):
No sharing for me.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
No, you're not married, you don't have a one year
old daughter named Lina. No, you have a Swiss bank
account that nobody would know about it.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Right now, Most of these statistics are getting into what
would make you say no.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
So, for example, uh, this.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Is a million dollars. You get a million dollars if
you refrain from blank.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Correct.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
And more than half of the people that were surveyed
would reject the cash if their parents were in control
of it.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Your parents, Yeah, we don't have parents.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
We're good, give me the money.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
Thirty eight percent would hesitate if their enemy benefited too.
So I assume that would mean that if you took
if you got money, they would also get money.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
I'm like, who cares if you're both rich, just go
do whatever you want. When you're freeing.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
Spiteful, you have to be at all their enemy.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Yeah, I sworn enemy because I.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
Could pay for college for my kids, medical treatments, all
this stuff, but no heat benefits. Nope, No, we're good right.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
I'm like, even if you can, I'm.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Gonna be a loser. You're going to be a loser
both losers.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Twenty one percent would not or they would not take
a million dollars if it meant that they had to give.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Up social media.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I could do that in a second.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
I'd give it up.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
But I could do that for a million dollars, I'd
be like, all right, I know it's tough to job realize.
I get all of that stuff. We can speak all
things true and holy about our profession and how we
need social media and everything, but if i'd have to
tell it, it's just like no. If you could keep me,
I can do the air stuff, but I just can't
do the social media stuff. And if they agree, absolutely, yeah, maybe.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
I'll be on my yacht.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Yeah, seriously, I don't know what kind of yacht you
get for a million.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Hey, if you take a million, if you if you
invest a million bucks just right and don't lose it
all in the stock market, you actually can do really.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Without doubt and go really super aggressive. If you don't
care about it, you wait thirty years you're in the
money man, or even way less than that. But I mean,
you could really take care of a lot of stuff.
Million bucks. Okay, I'm starting to rethink all those things.
