App, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

[Bobby Bones]

Transmitting across America. This is the Bobby. What's up, everybody? Welcome to Wednesday show Morning Studio. Morning. Okay, we're going to play guess why Amy's grocery bill was so high. Amy.

[Amy]

Okay, so I'm getting, like, chips, guac, salsa. Like, that's it. My bill should not be high at all.

[Bobby Bones]

That's the only three things you got.

[Amy]

I mean, I got multiple bags of chips and guac. And so I was like, different. I think we had hummus and carrots. It was like snack stuff because we were going to watch football. Okay. So it's me and my son. It's like, beep, beep, beep. And she's like, that'll be 302. And I'm thinking like, well, I know it's not $3 and 2 cents. It's got to be more than that. And then I look up at the screen and says, $302 and some change. And she's not phased at all. Like, the clerk is looking at me like, $302.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Why is her grocery bill so high? She'll give us the answer. Eddie, what do you think?

[Eddie]

I have an idea.

[Bobby Bones]

Go ahead.

[Eddie]

You know how when you go to the grocery store and you're. It's all the foods on the belt, you use that divider to make sure you don't pay for somebody else's groceries.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

I think Amy got distracted. Didn't have a divider, so they kept scanning. Boom, boom, boom. So she paid for two people's groceries.

[Bobby Bones]

How does that work with her groceries?

[Eddie]

So they scan all of her stuff. There's no divider. So they start taking the stuff from the guy that belongs to someone else.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

I was thinking the person before her checked out and thought they were done, scanned the credit card, walked off, but this credit card didn't go through, so the total was still on the screen. So Amy's bill got added to that. So Amy was paying for the groceries that were in front of her.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, that's good. Similar.

[Eddie]

Yeah, mine's the back of her.

[Bobby Bones]

Because.

[Lunchbox]

I feel Like, Amy would notice a bunch of groceries coming through, and she'd be like, whoa, whoa, whoa, those aren't mine.

[Eddie]

You think Amy wouldn't notice that?

[Bobby Bones]

You think anyone?

[Amy]

I wouldn't. Guys. I'm just glad I was paying attention when she said 302.

[Bobby Bones]

Because you just didn't blindly, like, Right.

[Amy]

Because sometimes you're on autopilot, and I'm like, I know what I'm getting. Like, people are just check out. And then. And the fact that the clerk was like, yeah, ma', am, 302. I'm like, you know what I just got. There's no way that's $302.

[Bobby Bones]

I would have thought, having worked a register before, there's a. Like, you can hit a 10 timesr. Like, you like salsa, and you hit the temp, you hit the 10 timesr button.

[Amy]

It's a lot of salsa.

[Eddie]

A lot.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. There's not there, but you beep it once and you hit the button, all of a sudden it's booped. It rigs up for 10. Like.

[Eddie]

Is that your guess?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I like you guys guesses, but I'm gonna go with that. You accidentally rang something up for way too much.

[Amy]

Yeah, well, so the clerk couldn't figure it out for a second. She was kind of looking at the bagger, and they were having a discussion. And then coincidentally, I knew the person that came up behind me, like, that was in line behind me. I know her. And she was like. I even heard her say 302, and was surprised because she saw what I was getting. And so we're standing there waiting there, trying to figure it out. And all of a sudden, the bagger runs off, and I'm like, where's the bagger going? And I guess they determined that what Lunchbox said could be the case, and they needed to go find the guy because he was already long gone. So it was his bill.

[Bobby Bones]

He got free groceries.

[Amy]

His bill was 260dol.

[Bobby Bones]

Nice job.

[Amy]

And then my groceries were added onto that, so my bill was going to be about $40.

[Bobby Bones]

Did they go find the guy?

[Amy]

Yeah, so. And then I felt bad because my friend did come behind me because she saw I only had a few things, and she probably thought, I'll be in and out of this line. And then we were delayed, like, five minutes. I looked her, I was like, you should probably go to another line because I don't know how long this is going to take. She's like, it's fine. So finally they come running back in, and the guy. It's like, oh, my gosh, I'm so glad y' all found me. He was in his car, like, leaving the parking lot, thinking he had paid for his groceries. He wasn't trying to get away.

[Bobby Bones]

He almost got away with that have been awesome.

[Amy]

But he did like, he was. They. She barely caught him. And I don't know what they would do in that case. They would probably just have to, I guess, clear his bill, and that's just a. A write off for them or something. And then they would br scan mine. But it was a close one. He almost got away with $260 worth of groceries. And then, luckily, I was paying attention, so I didn't end up paying for it all.

[Bobby Bones]

Lunchbox gets an A for his detective skills. Eddie, I gave you a C plus because you were in the ballpark.

[Eddie]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

You didn't quite solve the crime. I was close. Yeah. You need some more. Some more work. Carmen. Carmen Sandiego.

[Dave Ramsey]

Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Couple of voicemails. Number one, just wanted to say this. For a lunchbox, My mother won a million dollars on a $5 scratch ticket the other day.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

A million dollars. Keep playing lottery or, oh, I don't know, go on Survivor like you keep saying. All right, talk to you guys later. Bye. That's crazy. A million dollars. I did see a woman win a million dollars on Wheel of Fortune yesterday. It was the highest prize ever. I didn't know you could win a million dollars. I guess they have to also rise with the times. Yeah, it was either yesterday or the day before. But that's a game show that's on five days a week, so they don't have as much money. Meaning per episode. If you're doing a once a week and you're doing a network, that's different.

[Amy]

Do you think they get special sponsors for that or how do they get there?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So it's like, hey, I think sponsorship. You're bought into some of the packages, they give stuff away, but then also commercial revenue. And those shows are syndicated, so stations pay. They're not really on a network. Yeah, so it could be on an ABC affiliate here, and in Cleveland, it could be on an NBC affiliate because it's whatever station's paying for it. So that's part of it, too.

[Amy]

I was just thinking, you know, like.

[Bobby Bones]

The whole business model break down. We can do this here.

[Amy]

No, I mean, I get it. I was like, maybe you should sponsor a prize on the Wheel of Fortune.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, no, no.

[Amy]

In honor of Eddie's dyslexia.

[Bobby Bones]

That's true. I'M envious of people that host game shows like that. Like, Ryan's got a perfect job because he'll do that until he dies. Like Drew Carey. Perfect job. He'll do that until he doesn't want to do it anymore. Steve Harvey. And that's the one because that he goes in for like two weeks twice a year and does two seasons and then knocks them all out, does like three episodes a day, and then gets paid millions of dollars. Like, man, that is. That is the dream right there. Hosting a game show used to be looked down upon. Not so much anymore. Now everybody wants those jobs.

[Amy]

Oh, it. It was looked down upon.

[Bobby Bones]

It was like, you don't want to host a game show because that means you're either not a real comedian or a real actor.

[Amy]

Oh, like Chuck Wolvery.

[Bobby Bones]

What's his name?

[Amy]

Wolvery.

[Bobby Bones]

What's his name?

[Amy]

Chuck Wolvery.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy]

Chuck Woolry.

[Bobby Bones]

No. Is that.

[Eddie]

Is that all right?

[Amy]

I feel like I'm saying it like I'm trying to get there. Chuck Wy. Chuck Woolry.

[Bobby Bones]

No.

[Amy]

Chuck Woolery.

[Eddie]

Is it Woolery?

[Bobby Bones]

That's it. Okay. Chuck Woolery.

[Eddie]

So close.

[Bobby Bones]

So you're missing it, like, in two ways, but yes.

[Amy]

Chuck Woolery. That's it there.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Good job out there. All right. What? No, no. Good job.

[Amy]

Thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. All right, next up. I was just listening to an old podcast from 2024, March 26, and I found out that it was a joke that you were not originally in old town. That's so funny. I even told my wife, like, forever ago that I was like, wow, I never knew that's funny. Love the shack. Thank you. That is one of the ultimate inside jokes the show has. And I don't admit it often, but I may not have been in otan originally. And the reason that started being a joke was I would talk about how I grew up with those guys. We were a band, but that band was never a band as kids. They were put together on the original making the band. So that wasn't a band that grew up together. That was a band that was together on a television show. So this will be one of the rare times I admit I was never in O town, but those guys were so funny. They were in on the joke because they played our last raging idiots million dollar show, and they were like, well, welcome back out. Our newest member, Bob, or our oldest member. He's back, Bobby bones. Crowd went crazy. I think it's probably 50, 50 those who know it's a joke and continue to play along with it. And I appreciate that. And those who just don't, and they're like, that's so cool. You were an o town, so. Yeah, there you go. I appreciate that. All right. What'd you do yesterday?

[Amy]

Oh, what was yesterday? Oh, Oh. I have some mold situation happening at my house, so I got kicked out. Like, they're cleaning it or getting rid of something, Whatever they have to do. You cannot be in your home. Yeah. Like, there was a spot in the ceiling in my guest bathroom, and I was like, what is that? Like, black? Like, that can't be good. It was about the size of a quarter. And I called somebody and they came out, and I. It's the downstairs bath, and upstairs there's a pipe leaking. And that leak was causing some mold buildup. Luckily, it was contained to that area.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. So they say.

[Amy]

No, no. They did a full.

[Bobby Bones]

Open your mouth, Let me see in your lungs.

[Amy]

No, I know. That's why I was terrified. I'm like, we're going to have to tear the house down. This is what I thought last summer when I bought the house and I was renovating a bathroom, and they found mold. But luckily, it can be contained. At least what I'm learning from last summer and then now this. And then they can do what they need to do to clean that whole area. But I had to evacuate my house for hours.

[Bobby Bones]

Evacuate. Sounds dramatic.

[Amy]

What would you call it? I had to abandon leave.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, leave for a bit, as they claimed.

[Eddie]

That's it.

[Bobby Bones]

Evacuate would be. You're about to die.

[Eddie]

A hurricane.

[Amy]

No, I. I believe if I stayed there, I would get sick.

[Bobby Bones]

Well, I would argue that if that were the case, you would already be sick.

[Amy]

No, no, no, no. With. Through their cleaning process.

[Bobby Bones]

Right. So you had to leave as they.

[Amy]

Cleaned, and then even after they were done, they're like, you're not allowed back in for several hours.

[Eddie]

So what's worse, the black mold or their cleaning process?

[Bobby Bones]

I think their cleaning process probably exposes you to the mold because they're going in and pulling it out. That would be my best guess at this. Unless she's been exposed the whole time, and they just don't want to tell her.

[Amy]

Yeah. So, also.

[Bobby Bones]

But the cleaning product's probably part of it, too.

[Amy]

I think it's. Yeah, it's the whole thing.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm sure it's bleach, right? Only bleach. They just go with some Clorox bottles.

[Amy]

At one point in time, I thought I was doing my house this, you know, big service by putting spider plants all over It. Because I heard they're. They're really good at purifying the air. I mean, I had one in every room.

[Bobby Bones]

Webs everywhere. She's constantly walking.

[Amy]

No, she's not. Spider. Did I say spider webs? I said spider plants. Spider plants, same thing.

[Bobby Bones]

Webs everywhere.

[Amy]

So they're just like these dangly green plants. And I mean, I had them in the dining room, living room, whatever. So at them scattered about, and I'm like, oh, my house is so pure. And then upon further research, yes, spider plants purify the air. But I would have to have like thousands of them to make a difference. Like thousands.

[Bobby Bones]

Glide you research.

[Amy]

So I was trying to keep these things alive. Guess what? They've slowly died one by one. Because I'm like, I'm not motivated to keep you alive anymore.

[Bobby Bones]

Flew back from New York yesterday.

[Amy]

And how is that? Saw you wheeling around with your luggage on.

[Bobby Bones]

Don't get me started. I'll tell you. I'll tell you in the next part of the podcast.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Is kind of a mess.

[Amy]

Why?

[Bobby Bones]

I'm being honest. Well, I'm gonna tell you.

[Amy]

I know I have to wait, but, like.

[Bobby Bones]

But I flew back and then I watched the Cubs play the Padres yesterday, and that was good. Cubs won three game series. They need to win another one.

[Amy]

Somebody you love is winning.

[Bobby Bones]

For now. It's a hard life. It's a hard sports life for us. Yeah. So. All right, that's it, man. It makes me want to go get a scratch off when people call and say they hit it for a million dollars. We're like the greatest commercial for the lottery. For the lottery, and none of us have won. But we're the greatest commercial because we invite people to call in. Yeah, it makes me want to get scratch off. It's the anonymous in box. Anonymous in box. There's a question to be had. Send it into the mailbag. Hello, Bobby Bones. Maybe it's our area, but every single one of my daughter's friends has all social media accounts, some with multiple tick tocks. Our rule has always been 13 years old. My daughter is 10, trying to convince us to let her get at least one either Instagram or Tick Tock. Is there a better 1? Is 10 too young? Is this how the world works? Let me know. Parent to a 10 year old, Amy, you go, man.

[Amy]

10'S too young. Just. It's a no. It's a hard no. If you have TikTok and you want to give her your phone from time to time so she's not completely cut off. From it. But 10 not happening. 13, I think is a little. For all of them. Like that's a little too young. And you have every right to stand your ground about that and just be firm and matter of fact. And maybe 10's even too young to have the conversation of like showing research and data of people that are even creating these apps that are like, I wouldn't let my kids have this. Like it's, it can be.

[Bobby Bones]

It's showing a 10 year old data.

[Amy]

That's what I mean. That's why I said like 10 is probably too young for them to understand it. But it's like you need to make the responsible decision as a parent. And I feel like sometimes the younger we give it, it's just sort of some parents just not. They're being a little passive with their parenting.

[Bobby Bones]

So let me switch it up a little bit. Is it annoying when other parents are doing things that your kids aren't doing?

[Amy]

Yeah, I wish there was just some universal, hey, let's be united on this.

[Bobby Bones]

So not even social media, just in general.

[Amy]

Yeah, lots of things. Yeah. Can we just go ahead and have like a. Just a treaty together? We all sign it and then we're on the same page.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Amy]

And like a really rational parent puts it together.

[Eddie]

But you can do that with your close like parents that you've made friends with. You can do that with your group of parent friends where we're like, hey, can we all agree like no phones till 16? And then they'll be.

[Bobby Bones]

But to the parent friends and the kid friends.

[Eddie]

Well, I'm just.

[Bobby Bones]

He's crazy.

[Amy]

You're not in charge of the treaty.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

I mean I just want be able to, you know, track them on live 360 and stuff. You need a phone.

[Bobby Bones]

I feel like the parent friend group though isn't always the same as a friend. The kid friend group.

[Eddie]

Well, that's why. Well that's kind of why you create it. Like so. So you start early.

[Dave Ramsey]

Right.

[Eddie]

When your kids are making friends, you start making friends with their parents. That way if they grow up as friends, then you grow up with them being friends with their parents.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. My point is your kid finds new friends that you're not part of the parent friends. Therefore those kids can be out of the treaty. Correct.

[Amy]

Yeah. And it has to be like if you disobey the treaty, like something happens to you because death.

[Eddie]

Oh, well, I like that.

[Bobby Bones]

We take their food. Like you kidnap their kids.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

So I'm in a white van.

[Amy]

I remember back in high school I had friends, parents that would lie for us and they would host the party.

[Eddie]

That's crazy.

[Amy]

Looking back, it is crazy. I can't. I. I can't believe it. But of course, I was a teenager. I was like, oh my gosh, how'd your parents get so cool? And now I'm like, oh, my gosh, what was wrong with your parents? You know, it was not okay that they would be like, oh, yeah, yeah, we'll say you're spending the night here. It's no problem.

[Eddie]

You know what I hate too? And my kids did this one time. My oldest was just like, everyone Instagram. And I'm like, okay, well, I'm gonna go to all your friends and see if they have Instagram. And sure enough, only like two had Instagram. So it's stuff like that where like, oh, they all have tick tock, dad. And that's not true.

[Amy]

Well, I think it is how it feels to them. They feel that everybody has it, so they're using that term. To them, it does feel. If two out of four of their friends have it, it's like, oh man, I want it because everybody else at school has it.

[Bobby Bones]

So 10's too young.

[Amy]

10'S too young. And I'm no expert, but 10's too young.

[Bobby Bones]

And treaties.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah, but only rational parents can be involved.

[Bobby Bones]

Or write the treaties.

[Amy]

Write the treaties.

[Bobby Bones]

But irrational ones get to be a part of the treaty.

[Amy]

Yeah, but the minute you break the.

[Bobby Bones]

Treaty, something bad happens, which we haven't determined yet.

[Amy]

Yes, yes, yes.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this.

[Amy]

Attention passengers. The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane.

[Manny]

Think you could do it? It turns out that nearly 50% of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're saying like, okay, pull this.

[Manny]

Until this, pull that, turn this. It's just I can do my eyes closed. I'm Manny.

[Bridget Armstrong]

Hey sis, what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance bro tell you how to manage your money Again, welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part. When you pay down those credit cards, if you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem a year from now when you do feel like you are blank. Leading from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan, starting with your local credit union. Shopping around online looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets, I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt. And it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to Go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it may get even worse. For more judgment, free money advice, listen to Brown ambition on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Amy]

I typed. I typed Cinderella.

[Bobby Bones]

Hey, what'd you type?

[Amy]

Cinderella.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay.

[Eddie]

Oh, my goodness.

[Bobby Bones]

I wrote down snow freaking white.

[Amy]

It is snow freaking white.

[Bobby Bones]

Is it Snow freaking white? Right?

[Amy]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

It's snow freaking white.

[Amy]

Why did I do that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. Hit my song. It's time for the good news with Bobby. I feel like Tom Hanks is a good guy. I just do. I mean, I've seen him do a lot of really nice stuff. Also, his Roles are always really nice.

[Eddie]

People, but that has nothing to do.

[Bobby Bones]

But it does have to do with me feeling he's a nice guy.

[Eddie]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Like I think it's both. But there was this guy as a typewriter store. It's like an old vintage typewriter store and Tom Hanks was in there a couple years ago and he went in and he bought a typewriter and they had a long talk about typewriters. Tom Hanks likes typewriters and he likes typing things and sending them in letters. And he had said kind of offhand, hey, I'm going to send you one for my collection like years ago. And the guy never really got it until now. Just randomly it shows up. His name's Anthony Valapi of Type Space. He shared on Instagram and he took a picture of it. The much anticipated gift from when Years ago, Tom Hanks was in. He was doing a book tour in the area, stopped by the store, had the conversation, remembered it and then sent it years later with an autograph. That is so cool to remember that. Yeah, it was a 1955 Rhein Matal with a German keyboard signed by Tom Hanks that arrived at the shop. But I thought it's really cool. And that of course it's just a typewriter, but it's the thought and the remembering of the thought years later at some random conversation you had with a random person at a random store on your random stop at a random book tour.

[Eddie]

Cuz you have to think that like people always just like, yeah, you know what, I'm going to send you that typewriter. And like, oh yeah, sure, sure. And they forget about it.

[Bobby Bones]

Or the many interactions Tom Hanks has with, yes, many people. That's from the New York Post. I love that story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good bones. Dave Ramsey is so interesting. He's the money guy, massive radio show all over TikTok. He was in like bankruptcy for millions of dollars. And obviously now he's not that anymore. And so Dave Ramsey and I were talking about money. Now listen to this. When couples are fighting about money, does like Amazon purchases. Is that a big part of it? They're just one of them's ordering a lot of stuff to the house.

[Dave Ramsey]

You know, generally it's. They don't. They're not working together and there's not a lot of transparency. One of them is doing stuff the other one they know about. They're not necessarily hiding it. Sometimes they are, but it's like the wife is handling the money and she just gives her husband an allowance or vice versa. And then all of a sudden they look up and they go, well, I just, I want a new car. Well, we don't have any money for a new car. We got all this credit card debt. Why we got credit card debt? Well, because you keep spending. Well, nobody said anything. And there was just this. It's disorganized, it's chaotic, and it's not a top down strategy for laying it all out together. We both agree to it, we both implement it. And there's tons of communication about our values while we do that. And that causes a couple to be knit together and unified. And the opposite of that is when you have all this chaos, disorganization and there's money flying everywhere. It's inefficient for the money piece, but it's disastrous from the relationship standpoint.

[Bobby Bones]

What about shared checking accounts?

[Dave Ramsey]

100%. I have to. And again, it's data based. Okay. This idea that you can have a roommate and be married to them and you have two separate lives and that causes success. There's no data to support that. Go back to the millionaire study we did with 10,167 of them. 89% said, I worked very closely with high communication with my spouse to get here. When you interview the public, 40% say that and they're broken. And so there's causation correlation right there. There's statistical, and that data is solid. The couples that work together have higher quality marriage, higher happiness factor when they're doing marriage surveys, higher likelihood of staying together, and a much more efficient use of the money. So you build wealth faster. It's very simple. Instead of, I've got mine, you got yours, and you can't, you can't. You know, you pay your car payment. It's like, what are you. This is. It's not your college roommate. This is your wife.

[Bobby Bones]

Do you keep cash on you?

[Dave Ramsey]

Always.

[Bobby Bones]

I keep cash on me too, for tipping for the most part. And I do feel like I have to tip big because I worked in businesses where I needed tipped. And secondly, I don't want to end up on a freaking TikTok.

[Dave Ramsey]

Not as worried about the TikTok thing. To me, it's a form of generosity. And I've done most of those jobs too. And they're hard jobs. And so I try to find unusual ways to do that. And my wife is like, you just give them way too much money. I'm like, he is parking $140,000 car. I don't need to give him $5. Seriously. This is a valet. We need to love on a little.

[Bobby Bones]

I agree. Are cars bad investments?

[Dave Ramsey]

Yes.

[Bobby Bones]

Are they an investment at all?

[Dave Ramsey]

No, they're not an investment. They're consumption. Because they go down in value like a rock. They all go down in value. Right. And so, but, but we consume them. And again, boats, same thing. I got boats, I got cars. All these things go down in value. As long as they're a small percentage of your life, then they don't kill you. But if you make $50,000 a year and you have a $75,000 car, you can't, you can't absorb that mathematically it's going to take you to your knees. And so you bought a car that's killing you. And that's half my show. Sell the car.

[Bobby Bones]

Spent a long time with Dave Ramsey and I really wanted to know, like his origin story. Yeah, he's got millions and millions now, but that always wasn't the case. So Dave Ramsey, CEO of Ramsey Solutions, nine time best selling author and a guy who was in millions of dollars of debt. Here we go.

[Better Picks Ad]

Get your Bobby bones on.

[Bobby Bones]

It's Bobby bones. What was it like for you, like as a person? Like, kind of like the origin story of Dave? Because even I have read about you and I know you grew up in Antioch and Antioch is not Beverly Hills.

[Dave Ramsey]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

And again, my association with you is. I know the guy. I think a lot of people that watch you on tick tock is you're just the rich guy that's smart. So what's like before all that happened?

[Dave Ramsey]

Mitch, my wife Sharon, we got married, we had a $16 in our checking account, Nothing. And I started buying and selling real estate in my early 20s. Talked some banker into loaning me money because I could talk somebody into doing anything. And I went deeply in debt, went broke.

[Bobby Bones]

How deep in debt?

[Dave Ramsey]

We had $4 million worth of real estate by the time I was 26. And $3 million worth of debt. And the banks called our notes. And we spent the next two and a half years of our life losing everything we owned. We had a brand new baby and a toddler and a marriage hanging on by a thread. And I'm 28 years old and I filed bankruptcy after fighting it for two and a half years. It cr. Psychologically, spiritually, everything. I met God in that process on the way up, got to know him on the way down, and so we just, you know, by the time I'm 30 years old, we're basically penniless again and get the opportunity just to start over. But with having had the lights turned off, the water turned off at the house. So when people call me on the radio and they're scared. Yeah, I remember that instantly. I can feel it. It starts rising up in my throat.

[Bobby Bones]

There's empathy involved.

[Dave Ramsey]

Yeah. Thirty years later, I can still feel it in my body.

[Bobby Bones]

On our show. The hours are weird. Still very hard. It sucks. And forever. And I wrote about it, my first book. If you were one minute late, you got sent home, and it wasn't because you had to be there at exactly that time. It was because everybody else got there before the deadline time.

[Dave Ramsey]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And by you not getting there, that shows that you feel like your time's a little more important than everybody else.

[Dave Ramsey]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

And that's an arrogance. That's when it starts to get toxic within the group.

[Dave Ramsey]

When I was in my 20s, I was very important, I thought. And I was going, I had nine. I was a plate spinner, had plates spinning everywhere. All these different deals I was always doing. Had deals, deals, deals, deals, deals, deals. And I was perpetually late for everything because I was so important. But I ended up going. I was sitting down with this guy that was going to do an investment in one of our real estate projects and a very wealthy guy, CEO. And I come in 15 minutes late, and he goes, you're late? Yeah, I got all this going on. He goes, you're really important, aren't you? And I'm like, well, that. Yeah. No, I don't mean no. But I mean, he goes, no, you understand, when you come in here late, you are saying to me, I'm not as important as everything else you have going on. If you named a rock star or you named a world figure that you wanted to meet with and you had a meeting with them, you would be early regardless of how all the other things you had going on. But you're late to meet with me. And it says to me that I'm not important. That's arrogance. He just chastised me. You know what? I don't think I've ever been late. After that one conversation, it hurt my feelings so bad. He was so right. And I just. This is arrogance. It is. Arrogance is exactly what it is. And so, no, around Ramsey, we just say, trains run on time. Trains run on time.

Imagine that you're on an airplane and all of a sudden you hear this.

[Amy]

Attention passengers. The pilot is having an emergency and we need someone, anyone to land this plane.

[Manny]

Think you could do it? It turns out that nearly 50% of men think that they could land the plane with the help of air traffic control.

[Bobby Bones]

And they're saying like, okay, pull this.

[Manny]

Pull that, turn this. I can do my eyes closed. I'm Manny.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm Noah, this is Devin.

[Manny]

And on our new show, no Such Thing, we get to the bottom of questions like these. Join us as we talk to the leading expert on overconfidence.

[Bobby Bones]

Those who lack expertise lack the expertise.

[Amy]

They need to recognize that they lack expertise.

[Manny]

And then as we try the whole thing out for real. Wait, what? Oh, that's the Runway. I'm looking at this thing.

[Bobby Bones]

See?

[Manny]

Listen to no Such thing on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Bridget Armstrong]

Hey sis, what if I could promise you you never had to listen to a condescending finance bro tell you how to manage your money again? Welcome to Brown Ambition. This is the hard part. When you pay down those credit cards, if you haven't gotten to the bottom of why you were racking up credit or turning to credit cards, you may just recreate the same problem. A year from now, when you do feel like you are bleeding from these high interest rates, I would start shopping for a debt consolidation loan. Starting with your local credit Union shopping around online, looking for some online lenders because they tend to have fewer fees and be more affordable. Listen, I am not here to judge. It is so expensive in these streets. I 100% can see how in just a few months you can have this much credit card debt. And it weighs on you. It's really easy to just like stick your head in the sand. It's like nice and dark in the sand. Even if it's scary, it's not going to go away just because you're avoiding it. And in fact, it may get even worse. For more judgment, free money advice, listen to Brown ambition on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Dr. Joy Hardin Bradford, and in session 421 of Therapy for Black Girls, I sit down with Dr. Afia and Billy Shaka to explore how our hair connects to our identity, mental health and the ways we heal.

[Amy]

Because I think think hair is a complex language system, right, in terms of it can tell how old you are, your marital status, where you're from, your spiritual belief. But I think with social media there's like a hyper fixation and observation of our hair, right?

[Bridget Armstrong]

That this is sometimes the first thing.

[Amy]

Someone sees when we make a post or a reel is how our hair is styled.

[Bridget Armstrong]

We talk about the important role hairstylists play in our communities, the pressure to always look put together and how breaking up with perfection can actually free us. Plus, if you're someone who gets anxious about flying, don't miss session 418 with Dr. Angela Neal Barnett, where we dive into managing flight anxiety. Listen to Therapy for black Girls on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever.

[Bobby Bones]

You get your podcast crimes people think they could do and get away with. Is there any you think you could just nail?

[Amy]

Oh, I don't know.

[Bobby Bones]

I think shoplift if I really wanted to.

[Amy]

That was one I was thinking I created version.

[Bobby Bones]

They're just like, have somebody fall down over there and then throw some stuff in my bag.

[Eddie]

Sleight of hand.

[Amy]

Yeah, I freak out. They got cameras everywhere these days. They throw that on social media. You're busted.

[Bobby Bones]

I think I could break into cars because all you have to do is walk around and hit the door. They're not even busting into cars as much as they're checking for doors that are just unlocked. That's how 80 of these car crimes happen. We just leave our cars unlocked. I think I could do that. I think I could probably do insurance fraud.

[Amy]

I could probably forge a check.

[Bobby Bones]

Now we're talking.

[Eddie]

How do you do insurance fraud.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know. Say something happened. It didn't.

[Amy]

Oh, yeah, like my neck.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, yeah. My back. So I have the crimes people think they could do. And number five is violent crimes. So like assault and battery. But that's just like beating somebody up, right?

[Eddie]

Yes, but I think there's video of that everywhere. Like if there's a fight, someone's gonna shoot it.

[Bobby Bones]

Unless you're in the woods.

[Eddie]

That's true.

[Bobby Bones]

Or like on a dirt road.

[Eddie]

But then if you're in the woods, somebody has one of those hunting cams, like.

[Bobby Bones]

A game cam is going to get you beating somebody up. I think you could get away with that. I think you get away with an assault. But assault, the other person has to tell on you, right?

[Eddie]

Yes. Yeah, but you better really hurt them bad. So where they don't talk.

[Bobby Bones]

So they don't talk. Number four, drug related crimes. Like dealing drugs.

[Eddie]

See, I could do that.

[Amy]

Yeah. Drug dealer.

[Bobby Bones]

Not.

[Eddie]

Not a dealer. A trafficker.

[Amy]

A mule.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep.

[Eddie]

I think I'd be a great trafficker. I'm likable.

[Bobby Bones]

I would be so scared.

[Eddie]

Well, I'd be scary for sure if.

[Bobby Bones]

A cop just pulls me over for something. Even for one those rewards, you know, if you're driving so good, they pull you over and give you an ice cream. Like that was a thing. They'd be like, sir, I pulled you over to give you an ice cream. I have drugs in here. It's in the bag. I'd be terrible. I'd be a much better dealer than I would be a mule.

[Eddie]

Oh, okay.

[Bobby Bones]

Or a runner.

[Eddie]

Well, then you could be my dealer.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay. Yeah, I think I could. I think I could pull off the dealing because every time I'd sell something, I'd be like, you a cop? They have to answer that.

[Eddie]

Works in the movies.

[Bobby Bones]

Y. Every time. You. You a five zero.

[Eddie]

Nah, man. Okay, I'm clean, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Here you go. What would you like?

[Amy]

I guess I'd rather be on the growing side of things.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay.

[Eddie]

Or the farmer.

[Amy]

Yeah, yeah.

[Eddie]

Safer.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. But you're not doing. But are you doing like growing coca plants for like cocaine?

[Eddie]

That's what she means, right?

[Bobby Bones]

You gotta move to Columbia then. You can't even do that here in the States.

[Eddie]

We don't have that kind of soil.

[Amy]

Yeah, no, I was picturing myself in another country.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, okay. Wherever. If you picture yourself there, I'll accept it. Number three, cyber crimes like phishing. Creating those. Phishing. You have a bad link and then you have to like write the emails to trick people.

[Eddie]

I feel like those IP addresses get you every time.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you mean?

[Amy]

Like we wouldn't be good at it. You would have to be good at like figuring that.

[Eddie]

Do you know how to get on a network that's not trackable?

[Bobby Bones]

I wouldn't know, but I think what I would want to do in this process is have them already create the phishing site. And I'm just a creative that that creates the emails that lures people in.

[Eddie]

Oh, that's easy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah.

[Eddie]

And I feel like no one goes after those people.

[Amy]

Oh. So you have to just be like, hey, Susie.

[Bobby Bones]

Or Eddie's the one sending the random text.

[Eddie]

Judy.

[Amy]

Hey, want to do dinner tonight?

[Bobby Bones]

Property crimes. Like breaking into a car. Shoplifting. I'd be awesome at these.

[Amy]

Not me. I'd be too nervous.

[Eddie]

Yeah, but you'd have to depend on the open, unlocked door though.

[Bobby Bones]

But I think with the. There's a lot of surveillance footage. But I would always have everything covered. Or now you can buy masks that look like other humans. Yes. I'd always have the mask on so they would think it was another person. And then number one is white collar crimes. Tax evasion, insurance fraud. Stolen credit cards. Man, when I waited tables, I could have stolen so many credit cards because.

[Eddie]

Info.

[Bobby Bones]

Huh?

[Eddie]

Info of credit cards. Because you always take it.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. We go in the back. It's the dumbest thing that we do is we give our credit cards to somebody we don't know so they can walk in a back room where it's dark and stick in a machine that we can't see.

[Eddie]

That's so true.

[Bobby Bones]

Because it's not even about the machine.

[Dave Ramsey]

It's.

[Bobby Bones]

They can take a picture of it. Yep. They can take a picture of the front, the back. They could do whatever. It's all there. The fact that there aren't more waiters that are stealing credit cards blows my mind. That's pretty amazing.

[Eddie]

Well, don't tell them now they have the idea.

[Bobby Bones]

I think they probably know what they can do at this point. Embezzlement.

[Eddie]

What does that mean?

[Bobby Bones]

Shifting funds, like into like a fake account. Ah, yeah. Like. Like you work for the company and you're paying for something, but you're really not getting it. The company has no idea.

[Eddie]

Like office space.

[Bobby Bones]

There were those stories of people who would just send all these invoices to Amazon and Amazon is a obviously a multi billion dollar company and Amazon would just pay the bills. They'd be like, yeah.

[Amy]

Turns out they were not.

[Bobby Bones]

They were not real legit wow. They were making all this money hoping that nobody noticed because there was so.

[Amy]

Much going on and they weren't like, crazy. Bills would be like, oh, yeah, we're pay this hundred dollar bill here, whatever, and then it would all add up.

[Bobby Bones]

You think you get away with murder?

[Amy]

No, I don't really. What am I gonna do with the body?

[Eddie]

See this?

[Bobby Bones]

Acid?

[Eddie]

Acid's one. You got that from Breaking Bad?

[Bobby Bones]

Well, saw it then.

[Amy]

No, no, because I. I'm not gonna physically be able to saw it. You will.

[Bobby Bones]

If your life's on the line, you'll be able to saw anything.

[Amy]

No, I'll vomit everywhere.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but then you'll clean it up because you have to. You're gonna go to jail.

[Amy]

But why'd I kill them? I think I need to think that.

[Bobby Bones]

That'S on your own heart. I don't know. I don't know why you did it, but I think, could you. I could swap a person if I had to.

[Eddie]

Yeah, of course.

[Amy]

No way. You've like, done animals?

[Bobby Bones]

Yes. I was gonna say, do you know how many deer that I've had to, like, clean, harvest?

[Eddie]

You gotta do it at the joints.

[Amy]

Like, even with, like, Miracle in the Andes where they had to eat people.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I'd eat immediately.

[Amy]

I'd probably just turbulence die, because I don't wanna. It's fine. Like, I'm good at that point. I mean, I. I understand my survival may kick in and I might. That might be a different story, but the me right now, I just would be, no, thank you.

[Bobby Bones]

There are some cultures that cannibalism is accepted.

[Amy]

Sure.

[Bobby Bones]

Not in mine because, like, let's say, and I'm with my friends, my dad dies. You're supposed to eat your elders to keep them alive inside of you. And you don't eat the whole body. But the only part of the human you can't eat is the brain because you'll get, like, mad cow disease. Really. But there are a lot of cultures where it's even like, celebratory is to eat some of.

[Amy]

Like. Which part?

[Bobby Bones]

Your. Your elders. I don't know. I know what part you can't eat is because, again, it's like. It keeps them a part of you because it's now inside your body that's beaten. It's bizarre, though, because it's. Yeah, that's bizarre. But it's bizarre to us because we didn't do it. It wasn't bizarre to them.

[Eddie]

Yeah, because, like, it's not part of their culture. Yeah, man, that's weird.

[Amy]

No, I Understand that?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Yep. But you can't eat. If you eat the human brain, you.

[Eddie]

Will die because you get mad cow disease.

[Bobby Bones]

It's basically a version of mad cow disease you get. It infects you. So don't eat the brain. Whenever you murder somebody, Amy, and you're chopping their body up and you're like, I'm a little hungry.

[Amy]

It's good to know that y' all are so confident that y' all think y' all could get away with murder.

[Eddie]

Just give me a boat. Like, I don't understand.

[Amy]

See, I have to, like, carry the body.

[Bobby Bones]

So I don't know that.

[Amy]

I. I don't know. I gotta work out a little more.

[Bobby Bones]

Call me. I can help you there.

[Amy]

Would y' all really. I mean, y' all want to be an accomplice in a murder?

[Bobby Bones]

Ask me the question.

[Amy]

Okay, let's say I murder somebody and I call and I'm like, bobby, I've committed a sin.

[Bobby Bones]

A sin. Well, so I. I did a hundred. I did a hundred of those today. I forgive you.

[Amy]

And I need help getting rid of the body.

[Bobby Bones]

Oh, that's. Well, Amy, that's a murder. That's not a sin.

[Amy]

We. Thou shall not kill.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, but.

[Amy]

So can you help me get rid of the body? Like, do you have any ideas? I can't lift.

[Eddie]

Do you have any ideas? I wouldn't answer that.

[Amy]

I can't lift it.

[Bobby Bones]

I would need to know.

[Amy]

I need help carrying the body, and I need a.

[Bobby Bones]

What happened? Tell me what happened.

[Amy]

Well, if the murders. If the. If I can. If I know that it was self defense, then I'm not going to try.

[Bobby Bones]

To get away with it.

[Amy]

I'll just call 91 1. Clearly, I. I'm in a pickle. Okay, Like, I have.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy, can I put you on hold? Hey, Eddie. Amy just called me.

[Amy]

Don't tell anybody.

[Bobby Bones]

Said that there's a body and it's at her house and she needs help.

[Amy]

Carrying it and it wasn't self defense.

[Eddie]

See, my question. First of all, who is it?

[Bobby Bones]

Obviously, it's Eddie, and he won't answer.

[Amy]

Okay. My boyfriend.

[Bobby Bones]

What do you do? Yeah.

[Eddie]

Did he hurt. Did he hurt you?

[Bobby Bones]

I need to know. No.

[Amy]

No, he didn't hurt me.

[Eddie]

Are we doing Earl here? Because I'll help you.

[Amy]

I got upset and I pushed him down the stairs and he died.

[Eddie]

Oh, like you just push him down.

[Bobby Bones]

The stairs just because he. He didn't want to watch football or you don't want to watch football?

[Amy]

Guys, I don't know how to make this to where? It wasn't like.

[Bobby Bones]

No, I don't think I'm helping you.

[Amy]

It was an accidental murder.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't think I'm helping you. Accidental murder is not a thing.

[Eddie]

Yeah, that's not murder.

[Amy]

Yeah, but I did push him, but I didn't mean to kill him. Yeah, I think I'm gonna violently.

[Bobby Bones]

Hold on one second. Hey, now I won. I got this crazy lady on the other line. I need you to go help.

[Amy]

Yeah, so much for yalls help.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I don't think I'd help you with that one.

[Amy]

Well, so, okay, what kind of murder are we talking?

[Eddie]

Well, no, they did.

[Bobby Bones]

If they did you wrong, somebody was threatening you and your kids.

[Amy]

Yeah, okay, but then I. Then. Then I don't need your help. I'm gonna call 911 and be like you do.

[Bobby Bones]

Because once they get into your phone, you guys, they're gonna see some other stuff, so you want to hide.

[Eddie]

Okay, the Google the How to get Rid of a Body in the Cold.

[Bobby Bones]

How cold to the bodies.

[Amy]

What was that one? It was that guy, his wife, that showed Staircase, that documentary staircase where she fell down the stairs.

[Bobby Bones]

Barely remember.

[Eddie]

Didn't see it.

[Bobby Bones]

I remember seeing it, but.

[Amy]

Yeah, he said an owl came in the house and was flying around. It freaked her out and she fell down the stairs.

[Bobby Bones]

Maybe that's how you get away with the murder. Instead of chopping up a body, you just make up a dumb lie.

[Amy]

I mean, it was pretty insane. His first wife also died like that.

[Bobby Bones]

His first wife died the way an owl.

[Amy]

No, no.

[Bobby Bones]

Something tells me. Unless the guy's raising owls in his.

[Amy]

House, I think from, like, a fall down the stairs or something.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, I don't want to commit any crimes. I'd be terrible at it. Yes, for the record, I'd be terrible at committing crimes.

[Amy]

Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

Okay, listen to this voicemail. This happened to my aunt, and her husband ended up buying her, like, a fake diamond, but never told her. And she only found out, like, 20 years later when she lost her ring, and then, I guess, found it again and took it to a jeweler to get it. I don't really know the exact details, but the jeweler was like, oh, honey, this is Cupid Zirconia.

[Amy]

She was really mad for a long time.

[Bobby Bones]

So, anyway, this is Abby from Nashville. Love you.

[Amy]

Bye.

[Bobby Bones]

Amy, what would you do if that happened to you?

[Amy]

Oh, man.

[Bobby Bones]

Would you question the rest of your relationship and marriage and all the lies that you've probably been told over the years and you never knew and you still haven't found out, and one day you're probably going to find out, and it's going to feel exactly like. I think the.

[Amy]

The natural thing is to assume that, you know, they knew all along, but I think that maybe they got bamboozled.

[Bobby Bones]

That's your heart thinking that, not your brain.

[Eddie]

No chance.

[Amy]

Why?

[Bobby Bones]

Because it's a dude.

[Amy]

But sometimes y' all can get swindled. Like he thought he was buying a real thing.

[Bobby Bones]

Did anybody else's mind go to that? Because mine didn't. No. Yeah, and that's good. That shows a lot about your heart, too.

[Amy]

Well, I want to see a receipt.

[Bobby Bones]

From 20 years ago.

[Amy]

Yeah. You're telling me you didn't keep the receipt for insurance purposes?

[Bobby Bones]

I took a picture of it, but that didn't happen 20 years ago.

[Eddie]

I don't have a receipt from my wife's ring. That was 20 years ago.

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah, I took a picture of it and then saved it somewhere.

[Amy]

We have some sort of transaction. You use the credit card.

[Bobby Bones]

What, you paid cash 20 years ago. Whatever I did, I don't have record of it. It's probably five credit cards ago. Yeah.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

I think the dude was up to no good and then got caught and went. I'm gonna tell you this. His butt puckered up as soon as that ring went missing. And she was like, we gotta call somebody for insurance. Oh, good.

[Eddie]

This happened to us. My sister was dating this guy, and on Christmas, he came to the house, we all opened up gifts, and his was a bag from Tiffany's. And she got so excited, and she opened it up, and it was a diamond bracelet.

[Bobby Bones]

Nice.

[Eddie]

Awesome. She was so excited.

[Bobby Bones]

Nice.

[Eddie]

Turns out it wasn't real, but he.

[Amy]

Just put it in a Tiffany's box.

[Bobby Bones]

He put it in a Tiffany's bag. How'd she find out?

[Eddie]

Because she's like, oh, my gosh. You actually bought a bracelet. A diamond. And he's just like. After, like, a couple weeks, he's like, no, I have to come clean.

[Bobby Bones]

He came clean himself quick. Yep.

[Eddie]

He's like, it's not real. Because she didn't want to get.

[Bobby Bones]

He didn't.

[Eddie]

He didn't want her to, like, go sell it or something and then have this happen and then her find out that way.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm surprised he caught himself.

[Eddie]

He actually blamed on his sister. He said, my sister told me to do it.

[Bobby Bones]

Now we got it now. Now we're down to a dude being a dude again. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that. Reconsider the relationship situation. I mean, you find out he lied.

[Amy]

What?

[Bobby Bones]

Yeah. Open the door for us. Try to find other lies.

[Amy]

I mean, yeah, yeah. But I will say this could have been the desperate situation for the ring. It could be exclusive to this circumstance.

[Bobby Bones]

Could be, yeah.

[Amy]

Because of the pressure that can sometimes go into a ring. And maybe he didn't want to let her down and you had the money. It doesn't equal. He's a horrible person across the board.

[Bobby Bones]

But.

[Amy]

But you look into it.

[Bobby Bones]

It's probably not an isolated incident. A person who does this does a lot of things similar to this in their life. A lot of. A lot of shortcuts.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Bobby Bones]

So. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just. I'd pay attention now. I'd be reevaluating everything. It's time for the good news with Amy. Tell me something good.

[Amy]

There's a guy, AJ Limbo, and his wife Stephanie. They were at Willow beach in Arizona. He decided to jump off this cliff that's there. That's supposed to fun. So he did it and lost his wedding ring. Guess what's coming up? Their one year wedding anniversary. So not a good time to lose your ring. You haven't even made it to a year yet.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm surprised a ring comes off a finger.

[Amy]

Well, when you're jumping off of high. I've jumped off a lot of stuff.

[Eddie]

That'S probably loose to begin with.

[Amy]

Yeah. And then the water and then the. Yeah. Obviously he wasn't expecting to lose it. But they looked for days and finally no luck. So his wife was like, you know what? I'm just gonna ask for help on Facebook. Well, these divers, they saw the post. One guy, Ken, the other one is Beata. They went down and looked for the ring. No promises though, because it's been 34 days.

[Bobby Bones]

I'm glad I didn't promise them good.

[Amy]

34 days that that ring had been down there. And they found it.

[Bobby Bones]

That's crazy because I think it could have been like wedged in rocks. Yeah. They have underwater metal detectors.

[Eddie]

Yes, I've seen that on Tick tock.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Eddie]

Yeah, 100.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't know if they use that there, but that'd be the thing.

[Eddie]

No guarantees.

[Bobby Bones]

No, no.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Bobby Bones]

I bet that guy was so relieved.

[Amy]

Yeah. Now he's got his ring back just in time for his one year anniversary.

[Bobby Bones]

Especially if he never told his wife he lost it. I bet he was so relieved. Good story. That's what it's all about. That was. Tell me something good. Wake up. Wake up in the morning. Then you turn the radio on and the dial just keeps on turning. Then you hear Eddie Emulauch box. Morgan too. Scooter Steve Red hav trying to put you through. Mike D's riding this week's next bit and Bobby's on the mic. So you know what this is? This is the Bobby Bone sc. Now over to Amy for the morning corny.

[Lunchbox]

The morning corny.

[Amy]

Where do landscapers sleep?

[Bobby Bones]

Where do landscapers sleep?

[Amy]

In the flower bed.

[Bobby Bones]

Eddie was getting offended. That was the morning corny.

[Eddie]

Like, where do we sleep?

[Bobby Bones]

He whipped his head around when you said that. He went, what?

[Amy]

Eddie?

[Bobby Bones]

He was ready for some racial humor. Eddie, I don't support that.

[Eddie]

Well, I'm just, it was just my, my reaction, dude.

[Bobby Bones]

I don't support that on this show. He did get when you said that, he was like, what is she about?

[Eddie]

I want to know. I want to know what the answer was.

[Bobby Bones]

It's a flower bed.

[Eddie]

Funny though.

[Dave Ramsey]

I like it.

[Amy]

Yep.

[Bobby Bones]

Bobby Bone show bonehead story of the day.

[Lunchbox]

This story comes to us from Florida. A 28 year old man was pulling up to a stoplight and he sees a group of girls standing outside a restaurant and he's like, how can I impress them? I know what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna start doing some donuts. And so starts doing donuts in the intersection, gets pulled over, gets arrested for dui.

[Bobby Bones]

In the history of time, has there ever been somebody doing donuts or peeling out and there's been a, a girl or a woman go, that is so hot. I gotta get with that guy.

[Amy]

Yeah, I, I can't speak.

[Bobby Bones]

Ever since the dawn of man, has that happened.

[Eddie]

But every guy thinks so.

[Bobby Bones]

No, every guy doesn't. Only the idiot guys, those dudes.

[Amy]

Well, then there might be idiot women that think it's hot.

[Lunchbox]

But if you're in the car, if you do it with the girl in the car, she does like that. Like, girls think it's cool. They may not think it's cool on the side of the road because they're getting hit by all the smoke when you're doing it. But if they're in the car with you, they definitely enjoy it.

[Bobby Bones]

I've not met those girls.

[Amy]

I pee myself.

[Bobby Bones]

It does feel dangerous.

[Amy]

I would be so scared of you to let me out of here now.

[Bobby Bones]

Thank you, Lunchbox.

[Lunchbox]

I'm Lunchbox. That's your bonehead. Story of the day, Bones.

[Bobby Bones]

I was talking with Dave Ramsey, money guy Dave Ramsey, super successful author, radio show host. All over TikTok. Dave Ramsey. He's everywhere. And I asked him what financial advice on TikTok is way wrong. And then we Also talked about why he doesn't gamble. Bobby Bone show.

[Dave Ramsey]

Let's go.

[Bobby Bones]

There's a lot of advice out there now because social media, you have the ability to chase whatever you want. There is a niche for everything and it's awesome and awful and there are no gatekeepers and that's awesome and awful. You know, it's a pendulum, right?

[Dave Ramsey]

It's anarchy.

[Bobby Bones]

Yep. What's like common financial advice that's wrong?

[Dave Ramsey]

Most everything on TikTok. Flip this house. Stuff on TikTok is all over the place. Or a lot of crypto stuff on TikTok. Most of it's kind of get rich quick vibe. It's like, you know, I'm looking, you're looking for an easy button. I got an easy button. I'll sell you an Easy button for $3,422. If you follow my system, you can buy and sell stocks, day trade stocks, which 97% of the people that day trade stocks lose money in a six month period of time.

[Bobby Bones]

Really?

[Dave Ramsey]

Isn't that crazy?

[Bobby Bones]

That's exceptionally high. I thought it would be more than 50 for sure, but I didn't know it would be up.

[Dave Ramsey]

It's just like it's a 100% chance of losing money. It's like nuts. I mean, you have a better shot at the roulette wheel, mathematically, statistically. So it's crazy. And the difference is in the roulette wheel at least you know you're taking a chance. But on the day trading, they think they got the system. They bought the system off some guy on TikTok and he rented a jet and then filmed it like he owned the jet. And I got a jet and I'm like, yeah, right. What you got is a bunch of crap.

[Bobby Bones]

How do you feel about crypto?

[Dave Ramsey]

I don't buy anything that is a commodity. And so I don't buy barrels of oil off of the commodities market. I don't buy soybeans, I don't buy gold, I don't buy soybeans. And crypto is a currency and it's a commodity. And so I buy things that generate money and that way I can actually place a value on them. And that would be like a company. An example that would be buying a stock. I don't buy single stocks, buy my mutual funds. But a company that's Home Depot's making money, you can look at the numbers. It's actually producing something. It's not just a thing. Commodity is just a thing. And the only reason that a thing goes up in value is shortages or perceived shortages. Greed and fear drive the markets. That's why crypto. Crypto doesn't actually produce anything. It's just a currency. It's not a bad. It's nothing necessarily evil about it. It's a very young currency, doesn't have a long track record. And the track record that it does have is very volatile. So it's really scary. But all the cool kids are doing it. That's why everybody's in it. But I don't have anything and I don't put money and stuff like that because kind of trauma. I don't like losing money. I don't like gambling. I don't play cards. A lot of my buddies play poker and stuff. I get zero joy out of that. It makes my stomach go up into my throat. And it is not entertaining for me. It's not fun. It reminds me of trauma. And I go down that crazy cycle that we're talking about. And so I don't do it. I don't get joy out of losing money. I understand how people get a thrill out of the possibility of losing money. So, like, Michael Jordan is known to do, you know, all that kind of stuff, that he's got the money to do it. That's fine. I'm not mad at Michael. It's just. It's not fun for me. So I don't do that. And crypto's right in that bucket. It's the same thing. And so I don't get joy out of being a cool kid.
