WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:14.519
Yeah, ripped up news needed so
you don't have come running just as fast

2
00:00:14.560 --> 00:00:21.800
as we can. Shooter's gonna help
come. Man, This is the Troubleshooter

3
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:27.079
Show. No Tom Martine, Hey, welcome to the show. Three oh

4
00:00:27.160 --> 00:00:32.320
three seven one three talk seven one
three eight two five five. Today is

5
00:00:32.359 --> 00:00:38.479
car Friday, uh, and we
will talk cars with Jeff fick Kimer transmission.

6
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:44.640
Kevin Calkins shared an auto tech but
we don't talk just cars. We

7
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:49.399
talk everything you want, anything you
want. Now. Obviously cars still a

8
00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:54.399
major part of our lives. But
I'm just pretty uh, I don't know,

9
00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:57.600
I don't know how to put it. It's almost sad for me.

10
00:00:58.479 --> 00:01:03.560
I'm just kind of well, if
I had to describe, if I had

11
00:01:03.599 --> 00:01:17.959
to describe my experience with cars in
general, I'm sorry. But think about

12
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:23.319
it. They're boring. Have you
guys noticed that all SUVs are looking the

13
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.319
same. Oh yeah, if you
don't see the back and see whether who

14
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:29.280
makes it, you don't know what
it is. And that sucks. Man

15
00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.560
and Sedan's are boring. I mean, everything's boring. The only thing not

16
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.040
boring right now is that cyber truck
is not out yet. But I mean,

17
00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.239
really, no one is really changing
anything. I don't know what it

18
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:47.200
is now. Obviously exotic sports cars
they look kind of cool. The McLaren's

19
00:01:47.239 --> 00:01:51.200
and the the the you know,
the well, you know, the Lamborghinis,

20
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:53.439
and I love the Corvette by the
way, you know that, But

21
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.560
that that's not practical I'm talking about. There used to be a time you

22
00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.760
could stand out with an everyday driver. I mean, what are they?

23
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:04.319
You know? I think that the
thing that the reason Mercedes g wagons are

24
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:07.519
getting surch charge one hundred and seventy
five to one hundred grand on top of

25
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.759
sticker is because they're probably one of
the only SUVs that actually look different.

26
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:15.960
And then of course they got popular, and then everybody wanted one. And

27
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:21.400
then what else? Though? Does
any you know that Toyota FJ. I

28
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:24.759
don't think they make them anymore,
but people love those. If you had

29
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:30.479
to pick something, I mean,
it's just and for think about this.

30
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:34.360
You get a company like BMW comes
out with the X models and they make

31
00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:38.080
them all the same, just different
sizes exactly, I mean, and then

32
00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:42.560
you have like Tesla, Tesla the
X models a little different. It's kind

33
00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:46.479
of fun with those doors and weird, but in general, in general,

34
00:02:46.479 --> 00:02:51.240
folks, I mean, seriously,
does anything. That's why a lot of

35
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.360
people are turning to trucks, although
trucks aren't exciting either. Any any exciting

36
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:59.319
trucks people anything. I mean when
I say exciting me, just come out,

37
00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:02.240
you know, just look a little
different, you know, I mean

38
00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:07.639
cool coolness. But am I wrong? I mean, do you Mark?

39
00:03:07.680 --> 00:03:10.840
Are you excited? Or he might
be working on YouTube. I'm not sure,

40
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:15.639
but Mark, are you excited?
What are you got on here right

41
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.159
now? He's not? Well Okay, let me ask you guys, do

42
00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:21.919
any trucks really excite you? I
mean, I know you have trucks you

43
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:25.439
like, but anything really excite you? As far as body lines and whatnot,

44
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:30.719
They're all similar interior. I like, even if they had a great

45
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:35.759
interior. You know what, you
know, I'll tell you what the the

46
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:40.039
last the last thing in trucks.
Two things in trucks that made a little

47
00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:44.400
bit of a ripple in the market. When Dodge came out years ago with

48
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:47.520
the fenders. Remember they kind of
took out the box look and gave you

49
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:53.039
some fenders on the front. That
was pretty cool, you know. And

50
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:57.599
then when Ford came out with the
big giant grill up front with the big

51
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:00.439
fr D. I mean, you
make a little change like that and people

52
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:08.960
go crazy. And of course,
let's see, I don't know, we

53
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.719
don't like but I mean the body
line is a beautiful car, but I

54
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:15.639
mean reliability wise, it's terrible.
Which one is that? Oh? Now

55
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:18.639
you know what that is one of
the ones that stands out a little.

56
00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:25.639
The sport is beautiful, it is, but they're pieces of crap. Anyway,

57
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:30.079
Brian wants to talk about Breckinridge.
Let's go. Let's talk about that.

58
00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.240
Hey, by the way, anything
you want to talk about. And

59
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:42.959
I am monitoring messaging at LinkedIn and
next door or so also my YouTube morons

60
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:47.120
and I think we are up now
on YouTube and so so what's going on?

61
00:04:47.279 --> 00:04:53.000
Let's talk what is happening with you
and Breckinridge? What's going on with

62
00:04:53.079 --> 00:04:56.720
that? Hey? Tom? Yeah, So we stay in a resort.

63
00:04:57.279 --> 00:05:01.240
You know, we sayed last year, first year this year. When we

64
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.319
checked in, we you know,
everything was kind of running like that,

65
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:08.879
tons of checks and stuff. My
wife and daughter noticed it. You know,

66
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.439
some some internal doorjams, you know, little damage, a little separation

67
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:15.439
in the doorjam. And now where
where were you checking into I mean,

68
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.959
was this a place for just a
few nights or what? Yeah, that's

69
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:23.439
for the week and it's called the
Ranahan. It's part of a high vacation

70
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:29.199
club. So we're actually, you
know, renting from some people that have

71
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:32.639
a you know, timeshare, herpes
and got it, got it your person.

72
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:38.480
So you you were renting, you
were renting, you were renting one

73
00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:41.319
of these condos for a week,
and what what's wrong? You noticed a

74
00:05:41.360 --> 00:05:43.639
few things wrong with it? Right? Well, I mean that's if you

75
00:05:43.639 --> 00:05:46.560
thinks wrong. But we didn't think
any think of the internal doorjam stuff,

76
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:48.680
you know, and uh, they
didn't even think about reporting it. I

77
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:51.800
didn't know it's my wife and got
it in. But now it says I'm

78
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:56.319
gotting home. I can alert on
my credit card that I got an additional

79
00:05:56.360 --> 00:05:59.800
five hundred dollars charge and I called
in their charge you need for damage that

80
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:05.319
already there and oh really that sucks. Man. Wait a minute, So

81
00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:11.079
you're being charged for something you noticed
when you went in. Yep, and

82
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:14.480
we because we didn't actually bring it
up to them because again I said,

83
00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:17.480
it was this internal How can I
guess how much are you being charged?

84
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:27.600
Brian? Five hundred dollars coly,
holy crap, no fooling it. Put

85
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:31.560
it put a stayed on. Actually
a wonderful, wonderful family vacation, you

86
00:06:31.560 --> 00:06:34.920
know, with some wonderful Well they're
in a beautiful and a beautiful area.

87
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:39.319
But I guess my real question I
want Mark's advice on this because you're a

88
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.720
pro right you mean, wait,
wait, a pro at? What you

89
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:48.399
mean small claims court or damaging places? You're a funny man. No,

90
00:06:48.399 --> 00:06:53.519
No, Mark's a pro. At
at is the bad word to use for

91
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:58.439
small claims court? And and what
that would be the place to go?

92
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:02.120
However, what is your to what
damage? Is it the doorjam that you

93
00:07:02.240 --> 00:07:06.720
notice that they're charging you for,
that's what they're saying. Then you sent

94
00:07:06.800 --> 00:07:11.040
pictures, nfel. I emailed those
over as soon as got those at hell,

95
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:15.240
can you tell me what what is
that doorjam damage? If you could

96
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.360
tell me, is it something that
somebody kicked in or something? No,

97
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:23.759
all I can see is that they
never it's separating the doorjam was actually separating

98
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:27.160
from the wall a little bit,
which I don't even know how on earth.

99
00:07:27.319 --> 00:07:30.360
To me, it looks more like
deferred maintenance or hey, you know

100
00:07:30.439 --> 00:07:32.240
the buildings shifted and so of the
Doorjam's not really square, and there's a

101
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:36.079
little bit of a separation. They
sent like six or seven pictures a different

102
00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:40.240
things. Some of them can't tell
what they are. One of them is

103
00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:45.560
even like the fire of the smoke
detector is separating at the ceiling. We

104
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.199
won't even have the ommer reaching.
Wait they charged you for that too.

105
00:07:49.560 --> 00:07:54.160
Well, that's a picture they sent
to us. And wait the smoke alarm

106
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:57.759
too. Yeah, and it's but
you can see that there's tape on it

107
00:07:57.800 --> 00:07:59.959
as well. So at one point
they look like the hand that taped up.

108
00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:05.120
I wonder, man, this is
weird. I wonder they if they

109
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.240
get everyone with it. That's what
I'm wondering to righte Hey, you know

110
00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:11.439
they failed to report it. Well, boy, gives you that question.

111
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:13.920
You know, this guy might have
done all the damage himself and he's just

112
00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:18.639
trying to get us. But tell
me why he would I don't know,

113
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:22.519
why would he damage I don't know
jam like that. I want to see

114
00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:26.480
that. I want to shady.
I mean, do you guys hear that

115
00:08:26.639 --> 00:08:33.120
shadiness? Mark? Mark? You
know, just because you know what I'd

116
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:37.919
like to see it. Sus,
did you did you send that, Tommy

117
00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:41.759
sending it now? Okay, let's
take a look at it over the break.

118
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:45.919
Hold on a second, just hold
on, Brian, we'll come back

119
00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:50.480
and look at it. Linda.
What's going is this? Is this?

120
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.240
Linda? I couldn't. I can't
find that picture of that of that radio,

121
00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:01.240
the Bull radio. Yeah, I'm
I mean, did you send us

122
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:03.200
a page Susan? Did we ever
get a picture of that? I know

123
00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:07.120
they said they sent it to me, but I can't find it anywhere.

124
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:09.480
Hey, Tommy, that must have
been when Kelly was on. I can

125
00:09:09.519 --> 00:09:11.799
look through my emails here in a
month. Sorry, you know we don't

126
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:15.279
have to, Linda. I don't
want to belabor this with you. We

127
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.240
want to buy that radio for you. And I've been looking for bows,

128
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:22.000
but there's so many of them.
I want to ask you something. The

129
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.399
movers broke their radio. They're in
their nineties and they want another radio.

130
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:33.559
The movers don't acknowledge they did the
damage, right, Linda, they don't

131
00:09:33.559 --> 00:09:37.320
acknowledge. Its correct, That is
correct, and you're positive they broke it,

132
00:09:39.679 --> 00:09:43.360
yes, because it was completely fine
before it was wrapped up. They

133
00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:48.840
wrapped it in shrink wrap, which
really doesn't protect it that much, but

134
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:52.879
they were loading up their van.
It was in the evening and it was

135
00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:58.639
dark, and they had no choice
but to do that. And when we

136
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:03.879
unloaded it and plugged in the radio, my husband noticed the bottom was broken

137
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:09.759
and there was no shun We plugged
it in and turned it. By the

138
00:10:09.799 --> 00:10:11.519
way, I'm glad that you called
because I did have some questions. Does

139
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:16.039
the color matter to you? I
noticed there were some darker and they don't

140
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:20.519
maybe always have that in the beige. Does the color matter to you?

141
00:10:20.559 --> 00:10:22.840
No, the color does not matter
to us. Okay, as long as

142
00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:28.840
it's essentially the same radio. Yes, okay, dear, thank you Linda.

143
00:10:28.919 --> 00:10:31.440
Hey Tom, I found those pictures. I'm sending them to you.

144
00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:33.879
All right, good Linda. I'll
renew this effort here. And I'm so

145
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:39.080
sorry. Thank you for calling back
and make sure we have your information because

146
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:41.960

Hi Tom Martino here three O three
seven one three talks seven one three eight

two five five. We're gonna talk
about your problems, questions, complaints.

160
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.679
We were talking to Brian and Brian
said that he stayed at a place and

161
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:07.320
was charged for damages he did not
do. I'm wondering what people do to

162
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:13.080
protect themselves. They need to take
pictures I guess of any damage they see

163
00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.600
when they get in there so it's
timestamped, and then immediately let people know

164
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:22.240
he didn't do that. So Mark, what do you think do you think

165
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.039
they'll just pay up if he filed
the small claim? What do you think

166
00:12:24.080 --> 00:12:26.399
that they would do? I'll help
him out with that. But honestly,

167
00:12:26.440 --> 00:12:31.279
I think what we do is let's
have Scott call over there and see if

168
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:33.320
he can't figure something out for the
guy. And if that doesn't work,

169
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.000
I'll help Brian out. I'll I
know he lives, and I think he

170
00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:41.679
lives in Arkansas, so I'll kind
of send him the paperwork and tell him

171
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.679
kind of how to fill it out. Yeah, he does. You can't

172
00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:52.000
tell by his weird his weird verbiage. He lives in Arkansas. I think

173
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:56.399
he married his cousin. Well,
Mark, you got to understand something.

174
00:12:56.440 --> 00:12:58.919
To me, he sounds like Einstein. But I'm with you every day,

175
00:12:58.120 --> 00:13:03.759
yea, So, Professor Brian,
we are going to let Mark help you.

176
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:07.000
And uh, well, let's have
a question though, and I'm going

177
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:11.279
to contest the charge of my credit
cards. And I know Mark always says,

178
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:13.720
you know, you know, you
know, breach of contract. You

179
00:13:13.759 --> 00:13:16.679
know, I like to keep it
short and simple as well. It does

180
00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:20.240
not necessarily breach a contract. What
do you think, Well, it kind

181
00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:22.759
of is. Everything can be really
put under there. I mean it kind

182
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:26.600
of is the contract is that they
would charge you for damages. You didn't

183
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:31.159
do the damages, so it is
kind of they swipe the card. Brian,

184
00:13:33.279 --> 00:13:35.840
I believe I swiped on site,
But yeah, you're gonna I don't

185
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:41.200
think that put the hold on.
I wouldn't. I guess I would actually.

186
00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.399
I mean, you can contest it. They're going to give you a

187
00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.320
provisional credit, but it's going to
bounce back. There's no doubt. Man.

188
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.840
I know, I know, I
know it won't go through. But

189
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:54.360
are you Are you dealing with the
owner or some kind of agency like vacation

190
00:13:54.559 --> 00:13:58.320
rentals I've been doing. I've been
dealing with the manager at the at the

191
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.480
at the Ranahan Resorts there directly and
frankly, she's so does he sue the

192
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:07.799
owner or does he sue Ranahan?
What does he? Who does he sue

193
00:14:07.080 --> 00:14:13.559
whoever he charge? Okay, listen, Brian, We're gonna have Deputy Dollar

194
00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:16.600
call over there to see what proof
they have, because I venture to say

195
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:20.080
the previous tenants got charged as well. That's just my gut. And then

196
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:24.759
if that doesn't work, we'll proceed
with the small claims card I personally would

197
00:14:24.840 --> 00:14:26.120
not. I mean, you can
contest that. I don't know if I

198
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:30.799
would. Gabe has a question on
Corvette. Today is a car day,

199
00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:35.840
So Dave, what gives? What's
happening? I love corvettes. Last night

200
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:39.080
we're looking at Valet. As we're
walking in, we see these, these

201
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.320
McLarens, these other cars. And
I took my daughter out for her birthday,

202
00:14:43.360 --> 00:14:48.600
and I see I see the Corvette
and the McLaren and Lamborghini and other

203
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.879
things, and that Corvette looks just
as nice as any one of them.

204
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:56.120
The best dollar value in the world
the new Corvette. I guess it's the

205
00:14:56.159 --> 00:14:58.600
C eight platform. Gabe. I
don't know if you're asking about new or

206
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:03.720
use go ahead, Yes, Tom, I have a twenty fifteen Corvette Stingery

207
00:15:03.799 --> 00:15:07.759
Ragtop. I bought it with twenty
thousand miles. Now I have fifty three

208
00:15:07.799 --> 00:15:11.440
thousand miles. And my tork two
went out, okay, and I took

209
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:15.200
it and got a fix. That's
four thousand dollars. Now. I got

210
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.879
a little noise in the front.
It started when I picked the car up.

211
00:15:18.879 --> 00:15:22.360
It's sound great. Now I have
a noise in the front, and

212
00:15:22.639 --> 00:15:28.120
I thought it was Mike what did
you have done the tork tube? And

213
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:31.039
now there's a noise so that you
know, guys, we always have this

214
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:35.360
expression, once they touch it,
they own it. However, that's too

215
00:15:35.440 --> 00:15:37.519
much of a coincidence. Don't you
think of front end noise after getting the

216
00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:41.639
torques the torque tube? What do
you think? Guys? Did I start

217
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:46.960
up immediately upon getting it back?
I'm sorry? What was that the noise?

218
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.320
Was it a parent immediately when you
got it back? No? It

219
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.639
was good to COVID twenty miles and
I, my wife and I jumped into

220
00:15:54.639 --> 00:15:56.840
it. Four rag came to the
stoplin Nix. You know there's a noise.

221
00:15:56.879 --> 00:15:58.919
That's the car in front of me. Now, but wait a minute.

222
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:03.559
After twenty mile that's pretty immediate.
Was it twenty miles? Right?

223
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:07.480
And well that's that's immediate. Did
you drive back? Did you call him?

224
00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.720
Yeah? He told me to drive
it. You listen to it,

225
00:16:10.759 --> 00:16:15.639
and he goes drive a five hundred
more miles and bring it back. Then

226
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.399
I went to pulled him up.
I got two hundred miles on him and

227
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:21.799
he's towing me a driver another five
hundred miles. A shit quiet itself down.

228
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:26.279
You think it's apparance in the lineup. Things don't go away like that,

229
00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:29.960
do they, Guys? Is that
wise information? Not in the torque

230
00:16:29.960 --> 00:16:33.360
to No, there's no break in
or anything to that. You know,

231
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:37.360
you need to get it checked.
How much did you spend on that work?

232
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:42.320
Four thousand? Listen, that's a
lot of money. Man. Well

233
00:16:42.320 --> 00:16:45.240
the parts alone were probably three,
weren't they. What I would do is

234
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:51.320
this, I would take it somewhere
independent to look at it and get it

235
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:53.960
diagnostic. Then I would say,
if it's something related to what they did,

236
00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:56.360
and it's minor and you can get
it fixed, get it fixed.

237
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:02.000
If not, if it's something major
with that spent four grand, then you

238
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:04.400
have ammunition. I mean if we
call them, what's the name of the

239
00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:11.359
place, a Corvette Connection? Okay, we don't get a lot of complaints

240
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:14.640
about them. You guys know anything
about Corvette Connection. I'm not familiar with

241
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:17.359
them. I've never heard of them. Never heard of them either. How

242
00:17:17.400 --> 00:17:22.799
long have they been around? Twenty
six years? Are you on a court?

243
00:17:22.920 --> 00:17:33.039
Are you yeah? They have good
ratings. Are you on a forum?

244
00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:37.759
Oh, an owner's forum? You
know, I'm on an owner forum

245
00:17:37.799 --> 00:17:42.720
for everything I have, you know, you know, like the owners get

246
00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:48.519
together and discuss their vehicles. They
discuss like Tesla has one, BMW has

247
00:17:48.519 --> 00:17:52.640
one, Mercedes has one, they
all have one. Fifth Corvette Tom and

248
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:56.319
this is the first C seven I
had, and I looked them up.

249
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:00.279
I guess that's the main problem with
this car. The exhaust burns up that

250
00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:04.039
rubber you joined and tears up the
bearings at twenty thirty thousand miles. Well,

251
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:07.440
if that's the case. Though,
if that's the case, did they

252
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:11.599
replace that stuff? I don't know
anything about it. When when they put

253
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.400
in this this bar did they replace
all that? Right? They're rubber and

254
00:18:15.519 --> 00:18:19.160
say it's also runner right down the
middle and that's under in a tube and

255
00:18:19.200 --> 00:18:23.240
it says sheet that tears up the
rubber and the baron cooks the bearings.

256
00:18:23.279 --> 00:18:29.039
And this is a common problem with
Corvette I understand. Is that why you

257
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:33.160
took it in to begin with for
that common problem? Why you took it

258
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:34.240
in from my brake to get fixed? And he turned it off and I

259
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:38.160
had a rumble sounding turned up carbonyl
head. That's a gridline jumping around because

260
00:18:38.160 --> 00:18:44.480
the rubber uge lines are so he
changed him, right, and you have

261
00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:49.720
an invoice that shows that right.
And that's the four thousand dollars. That's

262
00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:55.000
what costs you four grand, four
grand rebuild it. He rebuilt your shack.

263
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:03.720
Okay, okay, so what do
we do without proof? If we

264
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.319
call him like, they're going to
say, what I mean just I mean,

265
00:19:07.440 --> 00:19:11.720
well, well, actually you can
call him and say I talked to

266
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:15.119
some mechanics and they say, that's
ridiculous that I drive more. It sounds

267
00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:18.640
like the guy wants you to put
more time on it, to get farther

268
00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:22.400
away from his repair. And then
he says, well, now it's too

269
00:19:22.519 --> 00:19:27.240
late. That's what it sounds like
to me. Well he warrants you for

270
00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:32.079
thirteen thousand miles or three months.
Oh that's funny, he said, he'll

271
00:19:32.160 --> 00:19:34.279
we open it again. But I
asked him yesterday. I said, if

272
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:37.720
it causes more damage, it's on
you, right, No, it's not

273
00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:41.079
on him. It's not on him. Man, I'm going to tell you

274
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.279
that it's not on him. That's
why. Here's what I would do.

275
00:19:45.759 --> 00:19:48.680
I'm going to say it one more
time, I get it analyzed right now

276
00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:51.480
by someone independent. Sorry, that's
what I would do. It's going to

277
00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:52.759
cost you a few bucks, but
you have to do it. And then

278
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:56.920
you know, next time, you're
not so fast to go to Corvette Connection.

279
00:19:56.000 --> 00:19:59.960
If they made a mistake like that, I'd also put an online review

280
00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:02.200
on it, And then if I
were you, Gabe, I would get

281
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:04.480
on a corvette forum. There are
tons of them. Forms are one of

282
00:20:04.519 --> 00:20:07.880
the most valuable things you can do. Man, I'm telling you. I'm

283
00:20:07.920 --> 00:20:11.880
on forums for engines, I'm on
forums for aircraft, I'm on forums for

284
00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:17.480
cars. Any of you guys get
on owner forums. I can't. I

285
00:20:17.519 --> 00:20:19.240
don't know if I can see Kevin
clicking a keyboard over there doing that,

286
00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:23.039
but maybe he does, do he
Kevin Well, he's full of insults today,

287
00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:26.039
he is. He's taking everybody out. No, I just all the

you got on forums like Tesla's well, John Deere, that would be the

00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:45.319

Denise, you have an og A roof

308
00:22:08.720 --> 00:22:14.400
issue. Denise, welcome, what's
going on? Yes, Hi Tom,

309
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:18.480
Hey, I have listened to your
show for a very long time. Thank

310
00:22:18.559 --> 00:22:25.480
you. The situation I feel needs
to be shared. I don't think there's

311
00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:30.440
much that can be done for my
son's community, but I want the public

312
00:22:30.559 --> 00:22:33.240
to be aware of it, and
it could be something. It could be

313
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:37.000
something we already discussed. Let's let's
talk about it. So what's going on

314
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:45.000
in his community? Okay, my
son purchased a town home in a community

315
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:49.440
out in our beda five years ago. Okay, it's a brand new community

316
00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:56.480
as of five years ago. They
have I would estimate eighty units and so

317
00:22:56.960 --> 00:23:02.880
he my son and his neighbors probably
don't have much recourse. But his neighbor

318
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:07.000
informed him they live in a pod. You know what I mean by a

319
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:12.000
pod in a tom townhouse community where
there's four units in each pod. Yeah,

320
00:23:12.039 --> 00:23:15.359
well we call them buildings, but
go ahead, it's fine, Yeah,

321
00:23:15.480 --> 00:23:19.400
okay, anyway, they're A B
and C and D. But the

322
00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:27.920
owners in A and B are having
major leaks from the roof into their units.

323
00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:33.359
And this is in the Sun's pod, right, No, yes,

324
00:23:33.559 --> 00:23:36.920
yes, it's in his pod.
It hasn't hit his unit yet, but

325
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:40.759
the I get it in the sun. Yeah, in your son's building.

326
00:23:41.400 --> 00:23:45.720
She uh, in the Sun's building, there are two units suffering leaks.

327
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:52.119
Go ahead, right, very very
bad leaks like they have rusting, uh,

328
00:23:52.680 --> 00:23:56.799
heating, HVAC units and that sort
of thing. Yeah, So they

329
00:23:57.160 --> 00:24:02.799
a roof for So they contacted the
you know they just bought these five years

330
00:24:02.839 --> 00:24:06.519
ago. Yeah, the builder said, I'm sorry, but your warranty for

331
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:11.400
that roof was one year. Yeah, Brent, that's right. There's nothing

332
00:24:11.480 --> 00:24:15.599
we can do for you. If
you want, you can contact the manufacturer.

333
00:24:17.319 --> 00:24:21.359
Well, the assessment if first of
all, you got to get it

334
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:25.920
inspected and get some professional opinions.
Second of all, if it turns out

335
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:30.720
to be a roof problem the shingle
itself, which ninety percent of the time

336
00:24:30.759 --> 00:24:34.000
it's not, or ninety eight percent
of the time it's more installation and flashing.

337
00:24:34.319 --> 00:24:38.400
But let's say it's a manufacturer's problem. They will replace the shingles,

338
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:42.839
but they won't do the labor.
So what you first need to start out

339
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:48.960
with is a professional opinion. Oh, you guys are shooting blind. You

340
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.240
have no idea what's wrong with the
roof. Second of all, if it

341
00:24:52.359 --> 00:24:56.119
came from a hailstorm that they never
got fixed. You only had one year

342
00:24:56.200 --> 00:25:00.400
to report it, so they're out
of luck. It could be that the

343
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:03.279
pod will need a new roof.
Now here's the good news. Depending on

344
00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:08.920
how the HOA is written. Normally, a roof on one pod is shared

345
00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:14.920
by all pods even though it's one
pod. But sometimes they could make each

346
00:25:15.119 --> 00:25:18.400
pod stand separately for capital assessments.
I don't know how those are written,

347
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:22.160
so you got a lot to find
out. The first thing is a professional

348
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:27.519
opinion. The second thing is then
finding coverage. If there's no coverage,

349
00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:34.279
then the third thing is looking to
the bylaws to see who is responsible for

350
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:41.599
that pod. Is it the entire
community or is it just that pod?

351
00:25:41.240 --> 00:25:48.319
But it won't It most likely will
not be an ensurable thing. Okay,

352
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:55.680
Well, the gentleman in Pod two
or B, should I say he already

353
00:25:55.839 --> 00:26:03.559
contacted a roofer that went up and
the roofer saw like gaps in the shingles,

354
00:26:03.759 --> 00:26:07.480
missing shingles, things like that.
It sounds like it's probably going to

355
00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:11.279
be relatively easy to fix. But
I don't know what roof for this guy

356
00:26:11.400 --> 00:26:15.240
had go up there, and I
trust very few roofers, so I would

357
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:18.039
say you have to call one of
our roofers before I'd believe it. But

358
00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:25.200
you guys do whatever you want.
Tom Yeah, your preaching to the choir.

359
00:26:26.599 --> 00:26:32.119
The first thing I said to the
neighbor yesterday was really, how did

360
00:26:32.160 --> 00:26:34.839
you find this roofer? So it's
like a friend of a friend? I

361
00:26:34.920 --> 00:26:40.119
said, okay, and I met
the roofer yesterday. Okay. Did the

362
00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:41.920
roofers say the whole thing has to
be redone or he can fix it?

363
00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:48.160
Of course he's saying the whole thing
had to be redone. Okay, I

364
00:26:48.200 --> 00:26:51.799
would get Excel Roofing. Let's just
cut to the chase. Call Excel Roofing

365
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:56.160
and ask them to come out and
look at it. That's it and you

366
00:26:56.279 --> 00:26:57.759
can do it. You don't have
to wait for the neighbor to do it.

367
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:00.839
By the way, I don't even
think you guys get to say who

368
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.920
does it? I think it's an
HOA thing. Did you guys contact the

369
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:11.319
HOA? First person they contact is
should I say organization with the HOA?

370
00:27:11.480 --> 00:27:14.519
They said, hey, we don't
have anything to do with roofie and that's

371
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:15.519
you. You got to deal with
the building. Well, you know,

372
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:18.000
first you look, Okay, remember
I said you have to look at the

373
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:23.599
bylaws. I've never heard yet yet
of an h a of an hoa community

374
00:27:23.640 --> 00:27:27.119
of town homes where the HOA has
nothing to do with the roof. Okay,

375
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:32.119
I've never heard of it. So
you're going to have to educate yourself

376
00:27:32.119 --> 00:27:36.039
because it sounds like you're around a
bunch of dead beats and morons. No,

377
00:27:36.079 --> 00:27:38.720
I shouldn't say morons because my YouTube
morons. I insult them every time

378
00:27:38.759 --> 00:27:41.920
I do that, and uh,
that's really a badge of honor. I

379
00:27:41.960 --> 00:27:47.480
would say they're a bunch of idiots. So you got to educate yourself.

What is it? Lauri? Hi,

383
00:28:00.200 --> 00:28:02.680
Tom, thank you so much for
taking my call. Yes, I had

384
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:07.519
a hail claim a few years ago. It was on five twenty nine one.

385
00:28:08.599 --> 00:28:12.480

both my home well completed? You
can have it. You can have it

387
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:21.200

they'll keep the claim open in three four

388
00:28:21.319 --> 00:28:23.720
years. It depends on your contract. But you have to report it and

389
00:28:23.880 --> 00:28:27.759
file a claim within the first year, Okay, which I did. I

390
00:28:29.079 --> 00:28:36.319
did file the claim in January of
twenty two. I just haven't had the

391
00:28:36.359 --> 00:28:41.640
work completed. Well, you better
make sure that your particular contract doesn't have

392
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:48.200
a deadline. Okay, okay,
make sure it doesn't have a deadline.

393
00:28:51.079 --> 00:28:52.920
And did you already yelow damage?
Did you already get paid on it?

394
00:28:55.599 --> 00:28:59.920

00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:45.519
happens when they they get paid the

what happens. Lucretia, I think that's

417
00:30:51.880 --> 00:30:55.599
right. I'm sorry, Lucretia.
Was that how I pronounce it or how

418
00:30:55.640 --> 00:31:00.720
you pronounce your name? Whatever?
You called about a day eating scam a

419
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:06.319
while back, and it was terrible
and I have all of your information still,

420
00:31:06.440 --> 00:31:07.880
by the way, and I've been
looking into it. I really have,

421
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:11.920
because I wanted to do a posting
on it. We used to call

422
00:31:11.960 --> 00:31:15.880
those articles, you know on the
internet and on all the news sites I

423
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:21.240
do, but haven't done it yet. And to bring people up to speed,

424
00:31:21.960 --> 00:31:29.279
what happened with Lucretia is she started
snapchatting a guy who contacted her on

425
00:31:29.759 --> 00:31:33.359
Snapchat, and to make a long
story short, he said he was a

426
00:31:33.440 --> 00:31:38.599
marine stationed in Turkey. He lost
his wallet and credentials. He needed her

427
00:31:38.720 --> 00:31:47.119
bank account to deposit money. But
the problem is she well, not the

428
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:48.720
problem. But she thought, well, you know, I'm not going to

429
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.160
give him my bank account, but
I'll open a new one and i won't

430
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:55.640
put any money in it, so
I'm not going to be in danger of

431
00:31:55.720 --> 00:31:57.599
him stealing from me. So she
did have her radar up a little,

432
00:31:59.440 --> 00:32:04.200
so she did this new account and
then he sent her a check to deposit

433
00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:07.759
and then draw out from to presend
to him. And make a long story

434
00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:12.359
short, the bank calls and says
the check was bad. You owe us

435
00:32:12.440 --> 00:32:19.240
money. Where do we stand today? Hello? Yes, where do we

436
00:32:19.359 --> 00:32:30.000
stand today? He actually was able
to deposit some money into that account directly,

437
00:32:31.960 --> 00:32:35.640
directly? Well, what was so? Hold on a second, though,

438
00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:38.240
hold on, hold on, Lucretia, what's unusual about that? He

439
00:32:38.640 --> 00:32:46.240
already we already know he can write
bad checks. Well, I was kind

440
00:32:46.279 --> 00:32:52.640
of curious because I found out that
he deposited money. Why the heck couldn't

441
00:32:52.680 --> 00:32:59.880
he withdraw? He was asking me
to withdraw. I'm going to tell you.

442
00:33:00.440 --> 00:33:04.039
I'm going to tell you why.
Okay, it's your account, it's

443
00:33:04.119 --> 00:33:09.839
not his. But how can he
deposit? I can deposit money right now

444
00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:16.680
in your account? It's easy.
Well, so they they you gave him,

445
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:20.960
You gave him the routing number,
and you gave him the account number,

446
00:33:20.960 --> 00:33:24.480
didn't you. Well, what I
was going to say was that they

447
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.720
actually said that I have added him
to my account. I didn't even know

448
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:35.640
the Sergio. There's a new name
on there. Wait a minute, here's

449
00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:38.000
what I'm saying, Lucretia. I
don't want to confuse you. Whoever he

450
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:43.559
is. It doesn't matter if I
have your routing number, if I have

451
00:33:43.759 --> 00:33:46.440
your account number, I can send
you money. There is no approval needed.

452
00:33:46.759 --> 00:33:50.160
I don't have to be on the
account. I want to make that

453
00:33:50.319 --> 00:33:53.240
clear. Right now, I can
say I can actually even take money out

454
00:33:53.279 --> 00:33:58.519
of the account. But that is
another story. Right now, this scammer,

455
00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:06.079
this scammer, whoever it is,
they probably impersonated you to add them

456
00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:09.199
to the account for other reasons.
Now why would they be added for other

457
00:34:09.320 --> 00:34:15.559
reasons? Here's why, because if
they want to do a zel or something,

458
00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:19.159
they not a zel. Well yeah, yeah, zells are certain transfers.

459
00:34:19.559 --> 00:34:22.360
They have to be on the account
to make online transfers. That's probably

460
00:34:22.400 --> 00:34:27.599
why they did that. But Lucretia, because you're on the account, whether

461
00:34:27.719 --> 00:34:32.639
he's added to it or not,
whenever money is missing, you will be

462
00:34:34.440 --> 00:34:40.360
held responsible. What I suggest you
do is close the account and you take

463
00:34:40.480 --> 00:34:44.280
all the money out, but don't
spend it because that money they're going to

464
00:34:44.320 --> 00:34:46.960
want back as soon as they figure
out as a scam. But at least

465
00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:53.039
close the account to protect yourself.
But I need to know about this new

466
00:34:53.159 --> 00:34:57.159
name, so hang on for a
second. I want to know that new

467
00:34:57.280 --> 00:35:00.679
name might be a name he had

482
00:36:23.960 --> 00:36:30.719
say that word unequivocable, unequivocally,
unequivocally, unequivocally, Well, anyway,

483
00:36:31.039 --> 00:36:34.679
whatever it is, it's one clear
choice garage doors. I'm gonna tell you

484
00:36:34.679 --> 00:36:37.480
why. On a serious note.
You can call them twenty four to seven

485
00:36:37.599 --> 00:36:40.360
for emergency services, and you can
call them for any service. But all

486
00:36:40.400 --> 00:36:45.719
of their prices are on their website
at one clear Choice Doors dot Com.

487
00:36:45.000 --> 00:36:49.360
And a lot of guys are walking
around in are driving around an suv calling

488
00:36:49.360 --> 00:36:52.119
themselves a garage door company. Don't
believe it. Okay, they're not.

489
00:36:52.800 --> 00:36:59.000
They're not authorized by manufacturers like one
clear Choice Doors dot Com. So uh,

490
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:00.719
Laurie had a question before the break
and she wanted to know about an

491
00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:07.320
auto and home heel problem damage.
Now, Jeremy, I'm going to sum

492
00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:12.280
up the problem. Laurie had two
different carriers, one for the car,

493
00:37:12.960 --> 00:37:16.280
one for the house. She had
hail damage on both. She put in

494
00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:22.400
two claims and got paid the first
check. I think, and Laurie,

495
00:37:22.440 --> 00:37:25.159
you correct me, but I'm going
to go there. And then she wants

496
00:37:25.199 --> 00:37:29.800
to know how long does she have
to get the repairs done. The storm

497
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:35.440
was in twenty twenty one. She
filed the claim shortly after and got paid.

498
00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:40.159
So, Laurie, do I have
that right? Basically? That's correct?

499
00:37:40.239 --> 00:37:45.599
Thankful? Okay, So, Jeremy, how much time do they give

500
00:37:45.639 --> 00:37:49.920
you after you get your ACV check, and that's called the actual cash value

501
00:37:50.039 --> 00:37:53.280
check, and then you get the
replacement cost, which is more than which

502
00:37:53.440 --> 00:37:58.119
the difference there after you get the
work done. Jeremy, how long does

503
00:37:58.199 --> 00:38:02.679
she have under most contracts? Yeah, most contracts actually aren't going to limit

504
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:09.039
that time. What they're really focusing
on now is filing the claim within twelve

505
00:38:09.119 --> 00:38:13.760
months months of the damage, so
they're not going to give her a hard

506
00:38:13.800 --> 00:38:17.039
time. Even if she no longer
has those policies she has since moved on.

507
00:38:19.880 --> 00:38:22.960
Yeah, that shouldn't matter. She
just has to get the damage actually

508
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:25.920
fixed for both of those to get
that recoverable depreciation. But as long as

509
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:30.000
she was covered on the data the
storm, which she obviously was, and

510
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:32.599
they've paid out some, I don't
think. I mean, you don't want

511
00:38:32.599 --> 00:38:37.280
to go too long, so there's
there's no reason to necessarily wait if you

512
00:38:37.360 --> 00:38:42.079
don't have to. But yeah,
once you're that far down they might have

513
00:38:42.239 --> 00:38:45.800
closed the claim at this point,
they could reopen it, so that shouldn't

514
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:50.239
be an issue. So yeah,
I don't anticipate where she's at in the

515
00:38:50.320 --> 00:38:54.360
process there'll be any issues. Laurie, who do you have now just to

516
00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:59.480
have cur who do you have now
out of curiosity, I have acuity.

517
00:38:59.559 --> 00:39:01.719
Now, let me explain what your
problem is. If you don't get the

518
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:07.000
work done, even though the previous
companies aren't going to hold you accountable,

519
00:39:07.639 --> 00:39:10.639
you're going to have a problem if
there's another storm and you have more damage.

520
00:39:10.679 --> 00:39:15.760
Right, Jeremy, Absolutely, And
that's that's a big reason you don't

521
00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:20.000
want to wait, because if there
is another storm, it gets really muddy

522
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:25.320
as far as how that works.
So please keep that in mind, Laurie.

523
00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:30.880
It will complicate it. In fact, it'll diminish the claim sometimes wipe

524
00:39:30.920 --> 00:39:35.239
it out. Okay, So Compass
Insurance, thank you. They do the

525
00:39:35.280 --> 00:39:37.800
insurance checkups. Remember you call and
say am I paying too much? Am

00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:42.199
I under insured? Am I over
insured? Do I have insurance? You

527
00:39:42.280 --> 00:39:45.039
know? Three h three nine nine
six nine thousand. Thank you very much,

528
00:39:45.119 --> 00:39:49.599
Jeremy. Okay, let's keep going
here, and Laurie, like I

529
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:52.559
said, don't hesitate. I would
get that done. Please get that done.

530
00:39:53.079 --> 00:39:57.679
Hey, we just got a gift. What is that Mark? Read

531
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:00.840
that card? It actually was to
all of us, including Kevin and Jeff

532
00:40:01.679 --> 00:40:06.880
Or is gonna call him jeffin So
there was a delivery. Because usually Mark,

533
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:08.239
what does it mean, come on
now, you know when they say

534
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:12.400
there's a delivery, Oh my god. I was telling these guys I said,

535
00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:16.880
well, I was pretty sure we're
getting served. Yeah, that's right,

536
00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:22.840
that's right. Happy Easter, Tom
Mark, sus Kelly, Shannon,

537
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:29.440
Kevin, and Jeff from a YouTube
moron Enjoy. So whoever it is is

538
00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:34.639
probably watching us on YouTube right now. Really, and it's a big What's

539
00:40:34.679 --> 00:40:36.920
in It? Tuesday? And I
didn't even open up to guests. It's

540
00:40:36.960 --> 00:40:40.639
so cool. So it's like Freeze
Dride candy. It's from Sister Sweet Treats.

541
00:40:40.719 --> 00:40:45.039
And there's like Freeze Dride candy,
Pop Rocks, Rocky Road, Cherry

542
00:40:45.199 --> 00:40:51.559
mash Licorice, some Roundup candy.
Well, this is cute. I don't

543
00:40:51.639 --> 00:40:54.519
like the last part they put on
the card though, What that says?

544
00:40:54.679 --> 00:40:59.679
Ps Mark is so much better looking
than Tom. Can you take Tom off

545
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:05.079
the It's horrible? Okay, I
can see that. So just what just

546
00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:07.679
happens over the years. You know, I'm supposed to age like a fine

547
00:41:07.719 --> 00:41:15.280
wine. But that's a ripoff.
Anyway, Let's keep going. And Lucretia,

548
00:41:15.400 --> 00:41:19.599
this is a sad story. But
to bring people up to date,

549
00:41:20.000 --> 00:41:22.679
she met a guy in Snapchat.
He said he was a marine in Turkey.

550
00:41:23.920 --> 00:41:29.239
She opened up a bank account for
him. He deposited bogus checks or

551
00:41:29.320 --> 00:41:34.360
one bogus check that she drew out
money and sent to him, And now

552
00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:37.880
she's getting hounded for that because it
was a bad check. So since that

553
00:41:38.079 --> 00:41:47.039
time, he deposited more money directly. Is she gone now? Oh?

554
00:41:47.119 --> 00:41:51.599
She didn't want to hear the truth. I told her to go cancel that

555
00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:57.239
account. People, there are so
many twists on dating scams you're not going

556
00:41:57.320 --> 00:42:02.559
to believe or big scams. Listen
to this other one. This one guy

557
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:07.480
that called us yesterday. I felt
so bad for this kid. Sounded like

558
00:42:07.559 --> 00:42:13.000
a young man. Brauh h.
What was his name? He was buying

559
00:42:13.159 --> 00:42:19.760
a place, all right, And
a day after he gave all his information

560
00:42:20.440 --> 00:42:27.800
to his mortgage broker and real estate
broker, he was hacked and a bunch

561
00:42:27.840 --> 00:42:32.000
of accounts were opened in his name. How did the information get out?

562
00:42:32.079 --> 00:42:37.280
We don't know. But you know
what happened next, right, What happened

563
00:42:37.320 --> 00:42:40.719
next was terrible because he put a
freeze on his credit and all of that,

564
00:42:42.280 --> 00:42:45.920
so he thought, I'm covering myself. Then he gets a phone call.

565
00:42:45.760 --> 00:42:50.719
The phone call says it's coming from
the IRS. In fact, it

566
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:54.480
was a correct number, so he
thought, this really is the IRS.

567
00:42:55.280 --> 00:43:00.920
And they tell him, listen,
you were hacked. Somebody opened up a

568
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:05.280
bank account your name and put several
hundreds of thousands of dollars in it.

569
00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:14.559
What you need to do is now
help us shut down this fraud. Unless

570
00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:17.719
you're part of it. He says, I'm not part of it. So

571
00:43:20.119 --> 00:43:22.679
what they do is they tell him
to go and draw the money out,

572
00:43:23.519 --> 00:43:29.440
take it out, and when he
takes it out, he should take it

573
00:43:29.519 --> 00:43:36.280
out in one hundred dollars bills and
to make sure that and what he can

574
00:43:36.360 --> 00:43:39.320
do is take them out. Then
he's going to go deposit that with the

575
00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:45.119
government. The government's going to check
the bills to verify their part of the

576
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:52.480
fraud, and then they will send
him back his money. It's so terrible,

577
00:43:53.519 --> 00:43:58.199
So he draws out his money.
Makes no sense, none of it.

578
00:43:58.760 --> 00:44:01.920
But he said they were so convince. Where he had to deposit the

579
00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:08.119
money is crazy. He had to
deposit the money in an ATM machine at

580
00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:15.960
a gas station in some bad part
of town. And so he does it.

581
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:21.519
They make him stay on the phone
the whole time because they say,

582
00:44:21.599 --> 00:44:24.679
listen, man, if you don't
stay on the phone, we can't help

583
00:44:24.760 --> 00:44:30.239
you. And Colin thought he was
going to be arrested for fraud of he

584
00:44:30.320 --> 00:44:37.079
didn't do it. The end result, he exhausted his bank account of fifteen

585
00:44:37.360 --> 00:44:45.719
thousand dollars, his entire life savings, and put it into an ATM.

586
00:44:46.360 --> 00:44:52.480
Then they said these police officers would
be in touch with him, and of

587
00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:58.119
course when he called the police department, no such officers existed. There was

588
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:04.360
no call from the IRS, and
his money is gone. Is that a

589
00:45:04.440 --> 00:45:08.400
sad story or what? Holy crap? Three oh three, seven to one

590
00:45:08.480 --> 00:45:14.559
three talks seven one three eight two
five five. I have something very interesting

591
00:45:14.760 --> 00:45:21.679
coming up. It's called the Bidenomics
calculator. It's not a political discussion.

592
00:45:22.199 --> 00:45:29.360
It's a mathematical discussion. This calculator
purports to be an accurate assessment of what

593
00:45:29.519 --> 00:45:35.559
things cost four years ago and what
they cost now. You click on it

594
00:45:36.079 --> 00:45:42.199
and it does the pricing. It's
kind of fascinating. I think it's called

595
00:45:42.320 --> 00:45:47.400
biden Mart. If you want to
look at it, you can Biden hyphenmart

596
00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:52.960
dot com. We'll be looking at
that. And again, this is a

597
00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:58.159
mathematical thing because at the beginning of
the show, we joked a little I

598
00:45:58.360 --> 00:46:00.519
might have been off the air,
and I said, things are going great.

599
00:46:00.639 --> 00:46:05.400
Unemployment is at an all time low, the stock markets at an all

600
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:09.880
time high. So how can we
say that the economy is doing bad?

601
00:46:10.559 --> 00:46:16.480
All major indicators show the economy is
doing okay. We do have inflation,

602
00:46:16.719 --> 00:46:22.440
yes, rising gas prices yes,
but everything else, So what does it

603
00:46:22.559 --> 00:46:25.679
mean? Wages are at an all
time high? Is it good? Is

604
00:46:25.760 --> 00:46:30.599
it bad? I'm not asking are
you Democrat? Are you Republican? I'm

605
00:46:30.639 --> 00:46:38.599
asking you is the economy better than
it was under the previous administration? Biden

606
00:46:38.679 --> 00:46:50.360
says yes, let's talk about that
coming up. I'm Tom martine Go with

Hi, Tom Martino, you're a troubleshooter,

614
00:47:27.039 --> 00:47:32.400
Cliff. The economy good or bad? Welcome? Hey Tom, Hey,

615
00:47:34.280 --> 00:47:37.519
Hey, I say it's like you
said. On paper, it looks

616
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:39.559
great, but I don't think people
fail in reality. I mean, if

617
00:47:39.559 --> 00:47:45.440
you look at insurance costs now out
like twenty thirty percent. Oh, insurance

618
00:47:45.519 --> 00:47:50.519
is up fifty to sixty percent.
Yeah, it's crazy. I have commercial

619
00:47:50.559 --> 00:47:54.079
insurance. The min went up from
it was about eleven thousand last year,

620
00:47:54.159 --> 00:47:59.079
that's thirty thousand this year. Now, inflation would be the one thing no

621
00:47:59.119 --> 00:48:06.079
one can brag about. Chicken went
up ninety one percent. This is the

622
00:48:06.239 --> 00:48:09.280
Biden calculatity. Guys. Have you
guys ever heard of the Denny's Grand Slam?

623
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.599
Yeah? How much? How much
do you think of Denny's Grand Slam?

624
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:15.760
Is an aurora right now? What
did it used to be? Like

625
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:19.920
four ninety nine or something. I
thought it was two ninety nine or three

626
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:23.320
ninety nine. That's too cheap.
The most reason I think was four ninety

627
00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:29.920
nine. It's twelve dollars and seventy
nine cents for the I'm not talking like

628
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:36.679
the Super Slam. We're talking the
Grand Slam original. Hey, what do

629
00:48:36.760 --> 00:48:38.719
you think though? Do you think
and I want to ask this, Cliff,

630
00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:45.280
if you're still there showing man,
do you think people? Is it

631
00:48:45.360 --> 00:48:50.320
even fair to blame one man for
inflation? I'm want to ask that straight

632
00:48:50.400 --> 00:48:54.000
up. I don't think it's fair
to blame Biden. I just I blamed

633
00:48:54.079 --> 00:49:02.320
government for the policy on Covido long
shutdowns and i'm necessarily unnecessary mandates and uh,

634
00:49:02.559 --> 00:49:06.599
you know obviously they've given out all
that pandemic money. Now we're paying

635
00:49:06.639 --> 00:49:09.039
the cost for that. And you
know, interest rates are high. No

636
00:49:09.119 --> 00:49:12.920
one wants to expand because they don't
want to borrow money at this price.

637
00:49:13.679 --> 00:49:16.000
It's just bad. I mean,
what's the annoying thing is that that's say

638
00:49:16.199 --> 00:49:21.360
telling us, you know, you
don't believe your checkbook, believe us things

639

Hi, do you hear me?
I? Sure do? Okay, great,

644
00:49:40.199 --> 00:49:44.719
I'll be getting to wonder if I
had to call in a different number.

645
00:49:44.960 --> 00:49:51.519
Okay, what's going on? Man? Well, this elderly lady,

646
00:49:51.679 --> 00:49:53.880
he comes in at my workplace.
I work at Sprout Mark and Apple call

647
00:49:54.000 --> 00:50:00.519
Fax in Colorado. Okay, and
he just turned about seve any going on

648
00:50:00.719 --> 00:50:07.800
seventy one. She's typically in a
a motorized wheelchair. She seems, for

649
00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:15.119
her age and what she's been through
the hose to be quite lucid. She

650
00:50:15.239 --> 00:50:21.159
does have some minor problems, but
I'm more to say lucid. You know,

651
00:50:21.280 --> 00:50:23.679
she she's got couple of degrees in
her past, you know, and

652
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:30.039
she's she's so keen, and she
knows how to keep records, yeah,

653
00:50:31.000 --> 00:50:37.000
to her benefit using she knows how
to use her phone smartphone for recording conversations

654
00:50:37.039 --> 00:50:39.400
and all that kind of stuff.
Well, sure she does. She's seventy

655
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:45.480
eight, she's not dead, that's
right. She's got a spunky attitude.

656
00:50:45.880 --> 00:50:54.199
She has a dumb friends league companion, emotional support animal, and she's been

657
00:50:54.280 --> 00:51:00.880
through a lot. And the big
thing with her is is having some severe

658
00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:06.920
DHA problems, never housing authority problems. And what turns out to be in

659
00:51:07.679 --> 00:51:15.960
is there was a or she called
is an abatement C and it's it's an

660
00:51:16.719 --> 00:51:22.840
illegitimate cheek that was placed upon her. Okay, hold on now, now,

661
00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:27.639
wait a minute. She lives in
Denver Housing Authority subsidized housing. And

662
00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:30.920
what is this fee? Is it
added every month to a rent? Or

663
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:34.719
is it a one time fee?
What are we talking about? The one

664
00:51:34.840 --> 00:51:40.519
time c that actually started like twelve
years ago? Okay, mind you okay,

665
00:51:40.840 --> 00:51:47.239
and they wait wait, wait wait, she's been paying this twelve years

666
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:52.079
yes, because she can only have
four or twenty five dollars a month on

667
00:51:52.199 --> 00:51:54.880
top of her rent, so she
has been wait wait wait, the one

668
00:51:54.960 --> 00:52:00.320
time fee, let me get this
straight, was assessed twelve years ago and

669
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:07.679
she's been paying on it ever since. Yes, what it was originally forty

670
00:52:07.760 --> 00:52:12.280
nine hundred dollars and he's gotten down
it to twenty three hundred dollars. Do

671
00:52:12.360 --> 00:52:15.360
you understand? But do you understand? What? What are we talking about?

672
00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:20.119
Though? What what do you mean? Like twelve years ago she told

673
00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:27.440
you a one time fee was assessed. What was it for? Well,

674
00:52:27.800 --> 00:52:30.679
that's where the little bit of interesting
things on here. Yeah, what does

675
00:52:30.719 --> 00:52:36.760
it say? Do you have the
original notice for this fee? She does?

676
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:38.840
I don't have in my possession.
She but what did she say?

677
00:52:38.920 --> 00:52:49.880
It was for, she said,
let's see exactly here that she gives out

678
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:52.719
names too. Okay, who didn't. I just need to know what is

679
00:52:52.760 --> 00:53:00.079
it for? It said here as
well as DJ's legal for now that forced

680
00:53:00.239 --> 00:53:07.559
the end quotes about of batement fee
charge of We're dying one hundred dollars plus

681
00:53:07.679 --> 00:53:13.400
back twelve years ago. The fee
being flash was set back then was forced

682
00:53:13.599 --> 00:53:17.679
verbally with a threat flash reality that
if I did not agree to pay it

683
00:53:19.159 --> 00:53:22.639
with my choice of what I can
put on top of my monthly rent church

684
00:53:22.719 --> 00:53:25.880
Hurls, which back then was your
dog at the time, will be evicted

685
00:53:27.000 --> 00:53:30.840
in seventy two hours. Okay,
Michael, I still need an answer to

686
00:53:31.079 --> 00:53:40.159
what was the fee it goes?
I from what I can gather she told

687
00:53:40.239 --> 00:53:45.800
me, is that have to do
with not way call it. They have

688
00:53:46.480 --> 00:53:52.199
inspections like failing an inspection. That's
the only thing that can be What are

689
00:53:52.239 --> 00:53:55.920
you talking about failing an inspection?
Is this a home she rents an apartment

690
00:53:57.079 --> 00:54:00.039
or is this something she owns?
No, No, it's apartment to the

691
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:05.239
DHA. She ring you on regular
But I don't understand, So hold on

692
00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:07.719
a second. Another thing. Who
does she pay the fee to every month

693
00:54:09.079 --> 00:54:16.360
to the DHA on top of a
regular wreck. But we don't know what

694
00:54:16.519 --> 00:54:21.559
the reason is. Can can we
talk to her directly really without any information,

695
00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:25.719
like like, I don't even understand
why anyone would be assessed a forty

696
00:54:25.800 --> 00:54:32.679
nine dollars fee ten years ago or
twelve years ago. Well that's that's because

697
00:54:35.039 --> 00:54:37.239
I think, quite frankly, I
don't know money under the table because they

698
00:54:37.320 --> 00:54:40.880
convert. Yeah, but but that
would be somebody who was there, has

699
00:54:40.960 --> 00:54:45.280
been there for the last twelve years. It doesn't make sense. No one

700
00:54:45.400 --> 00:54:47.639
wants to wait twelve years for their
money at twenty five dollars a month.

701
00:54:50.880 --> 00:54:53.599
Well, they changed it from an
abateenanc fee into a maintenance repayment. See

702
00:54:54.320 --> 00:54:59.400
okay, but maintenance repayment for what
did she have? Damages that she caused?

703
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:04.159
Now she's passed all of her and
wait a minute, and how do

704
00:55:04.239 --> 00:55:08.119
you know what they changed it to. That's what she told me. And

705
00:55:08.239 --> 00:55:13.920
then in a text we bot TEXTA. She's didn't let me a letter to

706
00:55:14.119 --> 00:55:19.920
me and voicemails and I've seen her
in person as well. Okay, we

707
00:55:20.079 --> 00:55:24.719
need to contact listen, we need
to talk to her directly. Then we

708
00:55:25.000 --> 00:55:30.679
need to get in touch with the
housing authority and just find out what the

709
00:55:30.760 --> 00:55:35.960
hell it is. I mean really, I mean she's been paying ever this

710
00:55:36.559 --> 00:55:43.840
what is it down to now?
Twenty two two, three hundred and fourteen

711
00:55:43.880 --> 00:55:50.199
dollars? This is crazy. I
mean this woman could very well be getting

712
00:55:50.280 --> 00:55:58.199
ripped off, yes, exactly or
not, I mean or not. Well,

713
00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:02.320
she's quite avid about it. And
even though just recently I say that,

714
00:56:02.599 --> 00:56:10.039
you know, she she she talked
to the third person like her,

715
00:56:10.559 --> 00:56:16.519
like her, zip her, what
would be her daughter, like send me

716
00:56:16.599 --> 00:56:22.719
a letter, but it was actually
her. Okay, but she's very very

717
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:24.719
I mean, and all of them. Do you think there's a Do you

718
00:56:24.840 --> 00:56:30.159
think there's some kind of scam going
on and somebody at the housing authority is

719
00:56:30.239 --> 00:56:35.239
doing this to a lot of people? Yes? I do, matter of

720
00:56:35.360 --> 00:56:38.840
fact, heating okay, And I
just mentioned to her. I went down

721
00:56:38.920 --> 00:56:44.400
the Senior Resource Center, okay,
down in just north west of her visit

722
00:56:44.480 --> 00:56:49.800
the day of this last week.
You told me about hey, because Mary

723
00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:52.159
was complaining, Hey, I haven't
had jets in the last you know,

724
00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:55.079
two years. Okay. Well I
thought, well, you know, I

725
00:56:55.599 --> 00:57:01.400
gave her the number, and apparently
now she's untacking a HUT because HUT is

726
00:57:01.559 --> 00:57:06.840
over a d eighth. By the
way, I don't think it's a scam

727
00:57:06.960 --> 00:57:08.639
for one reason. I think it
might be a mistake. But I don't

728
00:57:08.679 --> 00:57:14.000
think it's a scam for one reason, no one in the right mind.

729
00:57:14.079 --> 00:57:19.639
I mean, she's paying it with
her rent to Denver Housing Authority. So

730
00:57:19.880 --> 00:57:23.199
I mean for somebody to collect that
money, they would then have to steal

731
00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:27.079
from Denver Housing. And if they
wanted to make money, they would just

732
00:57:27.159 --> 00:57:30.840
steal from Denver Housing. There would
be no reason to assess this to her.

733
00:57:31.119 --> 00:57:36.719
They could just embezzle money. So
it doesn't sound like a scam because

734
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:42.599
the twenty five dollars is added into
her rent. Is that correct? It

735
00:57:42.800 --> 00:57:46.360
was only an agreement that she verbally
had a make. Hey, I understand

736
00:57:46.519 --> 00:57:51.480
that. But when the rent comes
due, and let's say the rent is

737
00:57:51.559 --> 00:57:55.840
fifteen hundred, she pays fifteen hundred
twenty five dollars, Is that right?

738
00:57:58.360 --> 00:58:02.480
Well, because she said an eight, whatever she pays, she adds twenty

739
00:58:02.599 --> 00:58:07.320
five hundred to her rent. Hey, Tom, here's what I think happens.

740
00:58:07.639 --> 00:58:12.280
I don't think anyone knows what it's
for, and she's probably been paying

741
00:58:12.320 --> 00:58:15.159
it and they don't even keep account
of it, and they don't even know

742
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:17.320
she overpaid Tom. Someone called in. I've been on the phones, but

743
00:58:17.440 --> 00:58:22.199
someone called in who was listening to
the call, and said it's for her

744
00:58:22.280 --> 00:58:24.679
pet. It's a monthly pet fee
they charge and if she doesn't pay it,

745
00:58:25.559 --> 00:58:29.679
well hold on. No. What
doesn't make sense about that though,

746
00:58:30.320 --> 00:58:32.599
is she said it was a one
time fee of forty nine hundred and she

747
00:58:32.760 --> 00:58:37.159
has a balanced due. So if
it was one if it was a monthly

748
00:58:37.239 --> 00:58:40.079
fee, why would there be a
balanced of twenty three hundred bucks. I

749
00:58:40.119 --> 00:58:44.000
don't know, unless it's just been
adding up over months. I didn't hear.

750
00:58:44.719 --> 00:58:46.320
That's not a lady. I don't
understand this, do you? And

751
00:58:46.519 --> 00:58:50.840
Michael? I need to ask another
question. If you know twelve years ago

752
00:58:50.920 --> 00:58:57.519
when she first got this bill,
how long had she been there that I

753
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.119
don't know. I don't know.
Can we talk to her directly or will

754
00:59:00.199 --> 00:59:05.480
she be she talks to third person? He said, that could be interesting.

755
00:59:05.559 --> 00:59:08.599
Let's get her on now, I'm
serious, man, this is I

756
00:59:08.719 --> 00:59:12.400
am too. Let's get her on
and ask her what it's about. But

757
00:59:12.920 --> 00:59:16.920
you understand, Michael, did you
call housing for her to find out what's

758
00:59:16.960 --> 00:59:22.639
going on? No, no,
do you know it could Let me just

759
00:59:22.679 --> 00:59:25.599
put it this way. It could
be a mistake. And if it's a

760
00:59:25.719 --> 00:59:29.800
mistake, well, wait a minute, it could have been this. Wait

761
00:59:29.800 --> 00:59:34.239
a minute. They said something about
evicting her and her dog. It could

762
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:39.679
be that. Back then her dog
did damage the apartment. They fixed it

763
00:59:40.159 --> 00:59:45.199
and said you have to pay for
it. That has happened before, and

764
00:59:45.360 --> 00:59:50.320
it's happened even with Section eight.
You have it for forty nine dollars.

765
00:59:50.480 --> 00:59:57.400
Come on, I don't know you're
right away. There's no way you're right.

766
00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:02.519
You're right probably, but we got

Hello Tom Martino three oh three seven
one three talk three all three seven

776
01:00:55.159 --> 01:01:01.039
one three eight two five five.
I'm kind of anxious to figure out what

777
01:01:01.239 --> 01:01:08.679
this Google complaint is, Mike,
what's happening? Hey Tom? Thanks sticking

778
01:01:08.719 --> 01:01:14.679
my call byden inflation affecting me?
Well, just real quick a side note.

779
01:01:15.119 --> 01:01:17.960
Yeah, my mortgage payment was thirty
three eighty a month, and I

780
01:01:19.280 --> 01:01:24.760
just got my new bill, and
now with property taxes and my insurance going

781
01:01:24.880 --> 01:01:30.679
up, now my mortgage is four
thousand dollars. Holy crap. Yeah,

782
01:01:31.280 --> 01:01:35.920
yes, I am shopping my insurance. But I haven't made any claims on

783
01:01:36.199 --> 01:01:38.960
my except for a hail claim two
years ago, like everybody else did.

784
01:01:39.559 --> 01:01:44.199
But the bottom line is, I'm
just saying, like, how do people

785
01:01:44.559 --> 01:01:50.000
live with a six hundred and fifty
dollars increase unexpected in their life? You

786
01:01:50.119 --> 01:01:52.320
know? And unbeknownst to me the
day before that, I bought my wife

787
01:01:52.400 --> 01:01:57.239
a new car, So it wasn't
quite I wasn't quite expecting them, you

788
01:01:57.320 --> 01:02:00.159
know, to be hit twice with
a car payment and then almost seven hundred

789
01:02:00.199 --> 01:02:05.400
dollars increase in mortgage. You know
what, I understand what you're saying.

790
01:02:05.599 --> 01:02:08.239
Everyone has expenses going up, and
it's all relative. I mean, we

791
01:02:08.320 --> 01:02:12.400
all have more expenses. I want
to know this, though, Do you

792
01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:16.119
blame personally? And I'm curious about
this because very seldom do people talk to

793
01:02:16.239 --> 01:02:22.519
people. They always read the news. But do you personally blame the Biden

794
01:02:22.559 --> 01:02:29.400
administration or Biden? Do you?
I absolutely do not. I blame Democrats.

795
01:02:30.119 --> 01:02:36.920
I became Their tax and regulation is
costing everybody dearly. That's that's well,

796
01:02:37.000 --> 01:02:42.079
his house went up, person his
property tax went up because of our

797
01:02:42.199 --> 01:02:46.400
governor and all the Democrats in the
legislature. That's the exact reason they went

798
01:02:46.519 --> 01:02:52.079
up. That's not like hearsay they
did it. And yeah, I don't

799
01:02:52.079 --> 01:02:57.679
blame I don't blame Biden. I
blame the Democrat Party and their their philosophy

800
01:02:57.800 --> 01:03:00.800
that that my money is their money
and that it's okay to tax and regulate

801
01:03:00.920 --> 01:03:05.079
me and everybody else to death.
I mean I wish, I wish Democrats

802
01:03:05.119 --> 01:03:09.000
would tax Democrats and Republicans would tax
Republicans, and I'd be much happier with

803
01:03:09.320 --> 01:03:15.719
the taxes that I have to pay
if they If intelligent people made sound decisions

804
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:21.320
that you know, truly, truly, you know, we're beneficial to my

805
01:03:21.599 --> 01:03:25.320
to me and my beliefs, and
not to you know, stupid causes and

806
01:03:25.599 --> 01:03:30.719
and and BS regulations, you know. So my complain about Google, though,

807
01:03:31.079 --> 01:03:35.320
is this, I'm a Mac person, I have an iPhone. I

808
01:03:35.440 --> 01:03:38.599
do not use Google. I don't
care to use Google. I use Safari

809
01:03:38.599 --> 01:03:42.679
as my browser, and I use
Duck Duck Go as my search engine.

810
01:03:43.079 --> 01:03:49.760
I do, however, use YouTube, and recently, normally I would be

811
01:03:49.880 --> 01:03:52.719
signed in and state signed in in
my YouTube account on my MacBook, and

812
01:03:52.800 --> 01:03:57.320
it would only it would only sign
me out if I signed out. Well,

813
01:03:57.519 --> 01:04:01.719
now recently every time I use is
go to YouTube, they're automatically signing

814
01:04:01.800 --> 01:04:06.639
me out. Yeah, it's happening
to me too. On Gmail and everything

815
01:04:06.719 --> 01:04:11.679
else. We don't have general Gmail, but we have a branded account on

816
01:04:11.800 --> 01:04:15.880
Gmail. You know. The troubleshooter
dot com doesn't do that. Mine does,

817
01:04:15.800 --> 01:04:19.599
real quick Tom. It's my issue
though, what it's doing is it

818
01:04:19.800 --> 01:04:25.159
used to be that I could I
could get a second verification, would be

819
01:04:25.239 --> 01:04:28.920
a text and a verification code,
and I would be able to sign it

820
01:04:28.920 --> 01:04:32.480
into my YouTube. Now they remove
that option, and they're demanding that I

821
01:04:33.199 --> 01:04:38.480
have a Google app on my phone. I know, I know, and

822
01:04:38.599 --> 01:04:41.960
that's same thing with me. But
let me ask you something. The same

823
01:04:42.039 --> 01:04:44.840
thing is happening to me in other
words, like when I go into the

824
01:04:44.960 --> 01:04:48.960
station and I have to sign in, it's set, go to Gmail on

825
01:04:49.079 --> 01:04:54.039
your phone and hold it near the
computer, and then when not not hold

826
01:04:54.079 --> 01:04:57.280
it just they didn't actually say that. They just said go to your Gmail

827
01:04:57.280 --> 01:05:00.599
account, have it handy, And
then it comes up and says is this

828
01:05:00.800 --> 01:05:02.559
you signing on to this PC?
And I say, yes, is that

829
01:05:02.639 --> 01:05:06.000
what you're talking about. No,
it's the fact that they want me to

830
01:05:06.079 --> 01:05:10.119
download the Google app that I don't
have. I know it. I know

831
01:05:10.280 --> 01:05:15.119
that's what I'm saying. But I
understand that and we're not going to change

832
01:05:15.159 --> 01:05:19.320
it. But do you have an
Apple or an iPhone? Yes? Yes?

833
01:05:19.480 --> 01:05:25.320
And do you have an iOS or
excuse me, an Os a Mac

834
01:05:25.960 --> 01:05:30.480
laptop? Yeah? I have a
Safari my brow That's why I think it's

835
01:05:30.519 --> 01:05:33.000
happening. Mark said, it's not
happening to him, But it's happening exactly

836
01:05:33.559 --> 01:05:36.760
exactly what you say is happening,
and I think it might be an update

837
01:05:36.840 --> 01:05:42.679
we took to access my phone and
get into my mind. I know it,

838
01:05:42.920 --> 01:05:46.519
bro, I understand that. But
they don't access your phone. They

839
01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:51.840
just want you to put your Gmail
app on there. It's your second party

840
01:05:51.960 --> 01:05:56.880
verification. But you don't have to
do it. If you don't want to

841
01:05:57.079 --> 01:06:00.079
use YouTube, you don't have to
do it. Or you can use YouTube.

842
01:06:00.159 --> 01:06:02.400
You don't have to have an account
to use YouTube, is what I'm

843
01:06:02.440 --> 01:06:05.960
saying. You could just delete your
account there. I used to be on

844
01:06:06.119 --> 01:06:10.599
YouTube all the time without having an
account. You don't have to have an

845
01:06:10.639 --> 01:06:15.199
account to be on YouTube. You
can just browse. I just I find

846
01:06:15.239 --> 01:06:23.760
it to be not appropriate that Google
would attempt to violate my right of private

847
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:31.599
or No, they're not. Mike, Mike listen, other Mike listen.

848
01:06:31.760 --> 01:06:38.000
Man. I'm just trying to tell
you, if you go to YouTube as

849
01:06:38.079 --> 01:06:42.280
a regular customer from anywhere, you
don't need any account at all, ever,

850
01:06:42.440 --> 01:06:45.199
ever, ever, ever, ever, you can do anything you want.

851
01:06:45.639 --> 01:06:50.960
If you have an account with Google, they can tell you whatever they

852
01:06:51.119 --> 01:06:57.239
want. They can tell you whatever
they want. By the way, am

853
01:06:57.280 --> 01:07:00.239
I wrong here? Hold on?
Hold on, hold on, hold on.

854
01:07:00.320 --> 01:07:05.920
You cannot no, no longer can
you browse YouTube as just a person?

855
01:07:06.280 --> 01:07:12.159
Hold on? I just figured this
out. I went to another computer,

856
01:07:12.239 --> 01:07:15.960
a private computer, so you can't. You're right, you have to

857
01:07:15.000 --> 01:07:18.920
have an account. Hold on,
so if you sign in? All right,

858
01:07:19.119 --> 01:07:23.920
I disagree with that. He's absolutely
we Mark, go ahead and try

859
01:07:23.960 --> 01:07:26.320
to do it. Well, I'm
trying to do it. I've been in

860
01:07:26.440 --> 01:07:29.079
lots of hotels where you just pull
it up. I know, Mark,

861
01:07:29.119 --> 01:07:32.440
I'm trying. I swear to you. I went to an incognito tab.

862
01:07:32.559 --> 01:07:38.039
That means, you know, so
you cannot log onto YouTube without an acount.

863
01:07:38.119 --> 01:07:42.280
Search something at the tap, search
cars. I did an incognitio.

864
01:07:42.320 --> 01:07:45.000
Okay, let me try that.
Every thing comes up. Okay, let

865
01:07:45.079 --> 01:07:47.159
me try that again. I don't
want to get out wrong information that matter.

866
01:07:47.320 --> 01:07:51.320
Just type in troubleshooter network you'll see
hold on, hold on, you're

867
01:07:51.360 --> 01:07:54.400
right, you're right, I'm in, I'm in. You're right. Sorry,

868
01:07:54.960 --> 01:07:58.559
I just didn't search something. But
okay, so here's what I'm saying.

869
01:07:58.599 --> 01:08:01.239
Then what I was saying is correct, and I'm anonymous. Right now,

870
01:08:01.639 --> 01:08:04.679
I'm a no one. I don't
have an account. There's a signing

871
01:08:04.800 --> 01:08:09.400
button on the top. Right.
I did not do I did not sign

872
01:08:09.480 --> 01:08:13.320
in, and I can search anything
I want on YouTube. Now if I

873
01:08:13.559 --> 01:08:17.960
want an account with Google, they
are demanding that. If you want an

874
01:08:17.960 --> 01:08:24.279
account with them, they're demanding a
second party verification, and they can demand

875
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:30.079
it anyway they want, because it's
their account. It's you're asking to have

876
01:08:30.199 --> 01:08:32.479
an account with them. You know, I don't. I don't. I

877
01:08:32.560 --> 01:08:36.279
don't know what the problem is if
one of the if one of the things

878
01:08:36.359 --> 01:08:41.520
they require is an app on your
phone to verify your account. If you

so you don't have to wait.
So let's talk. We're talking about a

910
01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:25.640
bunch of things. Today's carde Jeff
called in about a catalyg converter. He

911
01:11:25.760 --> 01:11:29.039
was giving us an update. He
said, the guy told me he needed

912
01:11:29.039 --> 01:11:30.720
a cat it was going to be
a lot of money. He was looking

913
01:11:30.760 --> 01:11:34.319
into Wyoming options, going up there
having it done. And then he then

914
01:11:34.399 --> 01:11:39.800
I suggested he go over to uh
Kevin call can it shared an auto tech?

915
01:11:39.880 --> 01:11:42.600
Get it checked, make sure you
need it. Jeff, what happened

916
01:11:42.600 --> 01:11:48.000
then? Okay, So the main
part of the story, I think is

917
01:11:48.039 --> 01:11:55.840
the fact that I got the diagnosis
from Big O, which did six the

918
01:11:55.960 --> 01:12:00.359
co two. Yeah, so Jeff
the car to share lot of tech.

919
01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:04.800
I paid for a diagnosis, and
you know, a couple of things were

920
01:12:04.800 --> 01:12:12.439
wrong with our evening about but they
said the O two sensor was they had

921
01:12:12.520 --> 01:12:18.000
a loose wire and on the female
end. I'm like, you got to

922
01:12:18.039 --> 01:12:24.079
be kidded me. So I don't
know if it was just installed. Wait

923
01:12:24.119 --> 01:12:28.079
a minute, so was did it
turn out you did need a cat or

924
01:12:28.199 --> 01:12:31.720
not? Well, well, here's
the thing, I'm not sure yet.

925
01:12:33.039 --> 01:12:38.720
But the light went off. Checkings. The light was off. I left

926
01:12:39.520 --> 01:12:43.000
and they said, you know,
drive it about eighty miles so it can

927
01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:46.640
start, you know, doing its
thing, the sensor and everything reading correctly.

928
01:12:47.520 --> 01:12:53.960
Well, I wasn't four blocks off
when it came back on. So

929
01:12:54.079 --> 01:12:57.560
I turned back around with that share
lout of tech. They're like, what

930
01:12:57.720 --> 01:13:01.439
the hell? So they took the
car back in. They were back there

931
01:13:01.560 --> 01:13:12.199
for two hours looking at my car. They found a wire further down into

932
01:13:12.279 --> 01:13:17.119
the engine that looked to me,
I'm not an expert, because you could

933
01:13:17.199 --> 01:13:23.439
see the flat end of the copper. It looks like what do you look

934
01:13:23.520 --> 01:13:26.920
like it was cut? Do you
think these guys are big open that?

935
01:13:28.159 --> 01:13:31.479
I don't know anyway, right now, how does your where does your car

936
01:13:31.560 --> 01:13:34.680
stand? Right now? As far
as the catalytical So they fixed that wire

937
01:13:34.800 --> 01:13:40.600
too, and they did not charge
me for that. They spent like three

938
01:13:40.640 --> 01:13:45.439
and a half hours man on a
diagnosis. They did not charge me any

939
01:13:45.479 --> 01:13:49.359
extra money. Ever since I've left, it's been now a week and a

940
01:13:49.399 --> 01:13:55.000
half. Checked agin lights still off
and the guy said, hey, I

941
01:13:55.039 --> 01:13:58.520
don't think you need a cattle converter, Jeff. I mean, I wonder

942
01:13:58.520 --> 01:14:00.239
if Kevin, Kevin, do your
people know why that light still goes on?

943
01:14:00.479 --> 01:14:04.479
It's still honors staying off? Hell
it's off? Has it come back

944
01:14:04.520 --> 01:14:09.479
off? Yeah? It's off?
Okay, bro Okay. So they solved

945
01:14:09.520 --> 01:14:12.880
the problem, all right, Well, and Big O would have had him

946
01:14:12.920 --> 01:14:17.600
dropping a couple grand the OQO convert
the O two sister that Big O put

947
01:14:17.640 --> 01:14:25.800
in and my impression was insolved incorrectly. Yeah, because it had a still

948
01:14:25.840 --> 01:14:30.600
add a loose wire. No I
did it? Did you go back and

949
01:14:30.720 --> 01:14:34.520
tell Big Oh? No, because
I'll just get too pissed. I would

950
01:14:34.560 --> 01:14:38.760
put a review online, though,
for sure, I would absolutely put a

951
01:14:38.800 --> 01:14:43.079
review about Sheridan Order Tech solving the
problem and how Big O was going to

952
01:14:43.119 --> 01:14:47.560
have you spending thousands of dollars already? Did it? Three oh three seven,

953
01:14:47.600 --> 01:14:50.199
one, three, eight, two
five five. Let's talk to J.

954
01:14:51.680 --> 01:14:56.520
Hello, j I'm Tom. What's
going on? Hey, So I

955
01:14:56.640 --> 01:15:02.119
have a question. Me and my
wife separated seven years ago. We haven't

956
01:15:02.199 --> 01:15:05.720
spoke to each other. We don't
do taxes, we don't communicate, We

957
01:15:05.760 --> 01:15:12.399
don't even know where each other live
or anything. Am I still married?

958
01:15:13.560 --> 01:15:15.000
Well? I'm not going to give
you legal advice, but here's what I

959
01:15:15.039 --> 01:15:21.159
will tell you. Okay, based
on past questions and answers we've gotten.

960
01:15:23.840 --> 01:15:30.039
It's a funny thing. You can
declare yourself married and be married immediately.

961
01:15:31.279 --> 01:15:38.880
You cannot declare yourself divorced. It
must be a legal It must be done

962
01:15:38.960 --> 01:15:44.640
legally within the state of jurisdiction.
Okay, so listen, Jeef, Jeff,

963
01:15:44.680 --> 01:15:47.399
go ahead. I'm sorry, go
ahead. Yeah, we never signed

964
01:15:47.439 --> 01:15:50.880
any divorce papers, never went to
court. You're not divorced. That's what

965
01:15:50.960 --> 01:15:58.880
I said. You can't. You
can't declare yourself divorced. You can declare

966
01:15:58.960 --> 01:16:05.960
yourself married. Now here's the funny
part. If you declare yourself married but

967
01:16:06.319 --> 01:16:14.079
no paperwork, and you guys want
to leave each other, theoretically you could.

968
01:16:14.720 --> 01:16:18.199
Theoretically you wouldn't have to have a
written divorce because no one would care.

969
01:16:18.720 --> 01:16:25.479
Theoretically, however, if you ever
just wait, man, if you

970
01:16:25.640 --> 01:16:30.920
ever declared yourself married and there was
no paperwork, no marriage license, no

971
01:16:30.079 --> 01:16:34.119
record other than you declared yourself married, you had some accounts together, stuff

972
01:16:34.199 --> 01:16:39.600
like that, then you declared yourself
divorce, meaning you just left each other.

973
01:16:40.199 --> 01:16:44.640
If either one of you kept it
that way forever, no one would

974
01:16:44.720 --> 01:16:51.720
care. However, one could come
back and haunt the other if they want

975
01:16:51.840 --> 01:16:56.319
to, because you never had a
divorce, but you did have a marriage.

976
01:16:56.720 --> 01:17:00.520
For example, in that case of
you on the lottery, she should

977
01:17:00.560 --> 01:17:02.840
come back, she could come back
and claim half of it. So it

978
01:17:03.079 --> 01:17:09.359
is it it is. But under
the circumstances I told you. Under the

979
01:17:09.439 --> 01:17:15.520
circumstances, Jeff. Here's the other
deal, though, it's always best to

980
01:17:15.760 --> 01:17:19.520
get a written, sealed, signed, and divorce. Now, when you're

981
01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:25.800
married on paper, not just common
law, but on paper, then you

982
01:17:26.319 --> 01:17:30.039
must get a divorce whether or not
you guys want to be divorced or not.

983
01:17:30.600 --> 01:17:34.640
Now, how long has it been? Seven years? Okay? You

984
01:17:34.760 --> 01:17:40.239
know we have we have someone,
we have someone we used to work with

985
01:17:40.920 --> 01:17:44.600
that is separated from his wife and
he never got a divorce and they don't

986
01:17:44.640 --> 01:17:47.359
bug each other, but it's going
to come back to haunt them in retirement,

987
01:17:47.520 --> 01:17:51.479
in estate planning and everything they do. And if this guy makes any

988
01:17:51.520 --> 01:17:57.159
big money, he's screwed. But
so, Jeff, you don't even know

989
01:17:57.199 --> 01:18:04.159
where she is. No, I
had no idea. I have no idea.

990
01:18:04.439 --> 01:18:10.880
Maybe Commerance City. Oh so she
it's not like she's in another state.

991
01:18:11.720 --> 01:18:15.600
Oh no, no, no,
no, you need to get a

992
01:18:15.680 --> 01:18:18.439
divorce. And the good news is, since you've been separated for so long,

993
01:18:19.640 --> 01:18:23.800
well a god, let me put
it to you this way. Holy

994
01:18:23.960 --> 01:18:28.359
crap, Jeff, do you own
a home? No? Does she own

995
01:18:28.399 --> 01:18:32.359
a home? I don't know.
Do you have anything that you've attained over

996
01:18:32.439 --> 01:18:38.640
these last seven years you've been separated. My Gi Joe collection? What is

997
01:18:38.680 --> 01:18:44.039
it worth? I don't know a
lot to me? Okay, Jeff,

998
01:18:44.520 --> 01:18:49.439
if you ever acquired any meaningful wealth, you may find it difficult to get

999
01:18:49.520 --> 01:18:57.119
divorced without her wanting money. Yeah. I see what you're saying. You

1000
01:18:57.319 --> 01:19:01.520
need to contact her and say,
listen, we should get divorced because if

1001
01:19:01.560 --> 01:19:04.319
you win the lottery, or if
I win the lottery, or if anything

1002
01:19:04.399 --> 01:19:09.279
goes on in our lives, it's
going to be complicated. You really need

1003
01:19:09.399 --> 01:19:13.600
to do that, Jeff, did
you guys part friends? No? It

1004
01:19:13.720 --> 01:19:17.359
was horrible. It was bad.
So if you called her and asked for

1005
01:19:17.399 --> 01:19:20.479
a divorce right now, actually you
don't ask. You would just serve her

1006
01:19:20.560 --> 01:19:24.960
for a divorce. I mean that's
all you would do. Okay, Yeah,

1007
01:19:25.000 --> 01:19:27.840
you can do You can do it, no fault divorce on your own.

1008
01:19:28.159 --> 01:19:32.319
But you got to do it.
And you may want to accompany the

1009
01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:38.000
serving of the paperwork with a letter
saying listen, I don't want this to

1010
01:19:38.039 --> 01:19:42.279
be adversarial. I'm just doing this
to protect myself, yeah, or to

1011
01:19:42.359 --> 01:19:47.000
protect each other whatever. Okay,
And meanwhile, just hope you don't win

1012
01:19:47.079 --> 01:19:53.640
the lottery, all right, you
know. Otherwise, why is this coming

1013
01:19:53.760 --> 01:19:57.680
to light now? Why seven years
later on? Why are I wondering about

1014
01:19:57.720 --> 01:20:02.439
it? Well because I'm moving in
with my girlfriend and she's been bringing in

1015
01:20:02.560 --> 01:20:08.800
you're a polygamist, No, I'm
not. Never. Well, if he

1016
01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:13.039
got married again, he would be, wouldn't he Tom? Seriously? Well

1017
01:20:13.479 --> 01:20:15.640
yes he would be. Is that
weird? He can't get remarried right?

1018
01:20:16.920 --> 01:20:19.439
Well, she doesn't want to get
married, so it works out. Yeah,

1019
01:20:19.800 --> 01:20:24.359
but it will not work out if
let me put to you this way,

1020
01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:27.520
it's not going to work out.
If you ever attain any wealth,

1021
01:20:27.720 --> 01:20:31.239
it's going to be a nightmare for
you. Yeah, you get rid of

1022
01:20:31.279 --> 01:20:36.880
her when you're poor. Okay,

to list your home with Remax Alliance three

1038
01:21:49.359 --> 01:21:59.600
oh three nine two zero sixteen twenty
two. Hi Tom Martino here three oh

1039
01:21:59.640 --> 01:22:04.520
three seven one three talk seven one
three eight two five five. By the

1040
01:22:04.560 --> 01:22:15.920
way, the top seven profitable corporations
in the world, they exceed the gross

1041
01:22:15.039 --> 01:22:23.359
national product of almost every country,
or yeah, exceed the wealth. I'm

1042
01:22:23.359 --> 01:22:26.399
sorry, I don't know if it's
the gross national product the wealth of almost

1043
01:22:26.520 --> 01:22:30.880
every country in the world. The
majority of countries in the world do not

1044
01:22:31.199 --> 01:22:39.439
make what these seven most profitable country
companies. That's impressive. Yeah, it's

1045
01:22:39.800 --> 01:22:44.319
unbelievable. And you know what those
seven companies are? Number one, it's

1046
01:22:44.439 --> 01:22:49.199
quite a few of them. Number
one, Apple, number two, Microsoft,

1047
01:22:50.039 --> 01:22:56.279
number three. Want to take a
guess? Amazon, yep, Jeff,

1048
01:22:57.000 --> 01:23:03.119
number four, Apple, ol bet
which is Google? Number five Meta?

1049
01:23:03.359 --> 01:23:10.039
Which is Facebook? Now six and
seven are Chinese? Oh? What

1050
01:23:10.159 --> 01:23:13.680
are they? Is it? What
is that one? The Ali Baba Sally

1051
01:23:13.760 --> 01:23:19.560
Baba and this one. I never
heard of. Tencent Holdings it's a multinational

1052
01:23:19.720 --> 01:23:28.520
Chinese corporation that has various Internet related
products, entertainment, AI and technology.

1053
01:23:28.640 --> 01:23:34.479
Globally, it's called tensent te n
C E n T. What's funny about

1054
01:23:34.520 --> 01:23:39.399
the Too, Ali, Baba and
Tencent is really they're owned by the Chinese.

1055
01:23:40.720 --> 01:23:44.560
Now when you say that they're not
owned by an industrialist in China,

1056
01:23:44.720 --> 01:23:48.239
or is it the is it actually? Well? I do believe you're correct

1057
01:23:48.319 --> 01:23:56.039
saying there probably is. Uh,
there probably is a face or a group

1058
01:23:56.119 --> 01:23:59.159
of people or a board. They
do own it. But in reality,

1059
01:24:00.079 --> 01:24:02.039
the Chinese own it. They can
shut it down in a heartbeat. Now,

1060
01:24:02.119 --> 01:24:10.239
if you like beef, you would
have paid four years ago, five

1061
01:24:10.319 --> 01:24:15.920
years ago, seven to twenty five
a pound for average, and now you

1062
01:24:16.159 --> 01:24:21.960
pay thirteen twenty two. It's an
eighty two percent increase. Again, these

1063
01:24:23.039 --> 01:24:26.319
are What about milk? What do
you think milk? Is? Milk?

1064
01:24:26.439 --> 01:24:31.600
Right now? Is a forty seven
percent increase? Almost forty eight percent?

1065
01:24:32.600 --> 01:24:39.600
Now again, is it fair to
blame a president? What about eggs?

1066
01:24:40.279 --> 01:24:45.119
They there, they're a staple.
A thirty five percent increase, Everything across

1067
01:24:45.239 --> 01:24:47.119
the board is going up. I
liked what that one caller said. He

1068
01:24:47.199 --> 01:24:51.000
goes I really don't blame the president. I blame democrats. I like that,

1069
01:24:51.119 --> 01:24:54.199
and I'll tell you why. I'll
give you another answer. I think

1070
01:24:54.239 --> 01:24:59.000
he said government didn't. He always
said democrats. Look at what Newsom did,

1071
01:25:00.199 --> 01:25:02.920
like defect, it's Newsome. But
whatever. In California when it came

1072
01:25:03.079 --> 01:25:08.159
to bacon, do you know what
he did? No, every cow or

1073
01:25:08.239 --> 01:25:11.399
I'm sorry, every pig has to
have a certain amount of space. Now,

1074
01:25:11.800 --> 01:25:15.800
so the pig farms had to drastically
change, and that of course made

1075
01:25:15.840 --> 01:25:19.319
Bacon go up a lot of money. Well, that's the same thing they

1076
01:25:19.359 --> 01:25:23.960
did with the chicken farms. They
have to have free range, free range,

1077
01:25:25.039 --> 01:25:27.199
the ca have to be a certain
size. Yeah, so when they

1078
01:25:27.279 --> 01:25:30.159
pass stuff like that, I mean, ultimately, who pays for it?

1079
01:25:30.840 --> 01:25:33.680
And then the funny part too is
tom, Ultimately who does it effect?

1080
01:25:34.199 --> 01:25:38.680
We all pay for it. But
it doesn't hurt you, It doesn't hurt

1081
01:25:38.760 --> 01:25:43.119
me that much. It doesn't hurt
these guys that we're paying three four bucks

1082
01:25:43.199 --> 01:25:45.560
more for chicken. But who does
it hurt the rancher? Well, it

1083
01:25:45.640 --> 01:25:49.479
definitely hurts a random momb with three
kids, you know, trying to feed

1084
01:25:49.600 --> 01:25:54.560
kids. Yeah, people that are
on that poverty line or the middle class

1085
01:25:54.680 --> 01:25:58.279
that have a bunch of kids.
You know, I would argue that every

1086
01:25:58.439 --> 01:26:03.520
single dime and dollar spent in extra
hurts everyone. And I mean it does

1087
01:26:03.720 --> 01:26:08.279
because whether you can afford it or
not doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. It's

1088
01:26:08.359 --> 01:26:11.800
money you don't have to put elsewhere, which actually could help out. But

1089
01:26:12.000 --> 01:26:15.439
you're not deciding whether or not to
let your kid go to karate or eat

1090
01:26:15.520 --> 01:26:18.680
that week. I mean, that's
what I'm saying. It hurts the most

1091
01:26:18.800 --> 01:26:24.520
the people that don't have a lot. Yeah, and again they think they're

1092
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:29.880
helping those people. It's just and
that's where I I'm not saying I'm parting

1093
01:26:30.000 --> 01:26:32.439
with you on that. I just
have a hard time believing they're that stupid.

1094
01:26:32.920 --> 01:26:38.960
I think they have more of this
global this picture in their brain.

1095
01:26:39.119 --> 01:26:42.279
They want to be the globalist and
the elite at the top, and the

1096
01:26:42.439 --> 01:26:46.279
way to get there is to create
this world. And how they're creating it

1097
01:26:46.399 --> 01:26:51.800
is what we're watching and living through
right now. By the way, Monty

1098
01:26:53.039 --> 01:26:57.760
and Beverly are on they want to
talk about it. Botch job and it's

1099
01:26:57.800 --> 01:27:01.199
someone we know on this show,
someone on this Sleas Brigade, and someone

1100
01:27:01.279 --> 01:27:05.800
who in my opinion should be in
prison. That is my opinion. The

1101
01:27:05.960 --> 01:27:12.439
man should be in prison. And
I can't believe he is still in business.

1102
01:27:14.319 --> 01:27:18.760
Monty Beverly, whoever start tell us
what's going on? Hi Tom,

1103
01:27:18.840 --> 01:27:24.039
thanks for taking our call. Yes, sir, I had a transmission go

1104
01:27:24.119 --> 01:27:29.000
out of my truck back in the
end of November and November something. So

1105
01:27:29.439 --> 01:27:32.680
I called around and went to several
places and got some bids and stuff.

1106
01:27:32.800 --> 01:27:38.000
And then I a friend took his
truck to get some just some minor work

1107
01:27:38.079 --> 01:27:43.960
done from this mechanic or whatever if
you call him the mechanic. And how

1108
01:27:44.079 --> 01:27:48.199
long ago was this, Monty that
you took your your car in December second?

1109
01:27:49.159 --> 01:27:56.039
December second? And what what you
actually what's the name of the business

1110
01:27:56.159 --> 01:28:01.680
he had in December second? It's
called Mountain View Transmission and Gear. And

1111
01:28:01.800 --> 01:28:08.479
where was it? Ian berthed?
Oh, so he moved quite a quite

1112
01:28:08.680 --> 01:28:12.560
okay, so he moved. He
used to be on Santa Fe. So

1113
01:28:12.760 --> 01:28:15.399
this we're talking about is Jeff Jolliffe. If you go to sleaves Brigade dot

1114
01:28:15.520 --> 01:28:20.119
com you can find out about him. Didn't you do any research before taking

1115
01:28:20.159 --> 01:28:25.399
it there? Well not really,
because I a friend of mine said Yeah,

1116
01:28:25.439 --> 01:28:28.520
he did good work, and he
was the least expensive and the quick.

1117
01:28:28.600 --> 01:28:30.039
Now, now, what kind of
vehicle did you say it is?

1118
01:28:31.119 --> 01:28:39.840
It's a Chevy pickup of twenty sixteen
Chevy pickup. Okay, now I want

1119
01:28:39.880 --> 01:28:42.239
to get right to it. The
name of the place. I want to

1120
01:28:42.319 --> 01:28:45.239
make sure. Is it still open? Yes? It was a couple of

1121
01:28:45.279 --> 01:28:47.760
days ago, one way and got
my truck. Oh it is. We

1122
01:28:47.880 --> 01:28:57.399
have it technically mountain View Automotive.
It's yeah, technically the mountain View Transmission

1123
01:28:57.560 --> 01:29:01.359
and Gear. What's the phone number? Ot me? God got We're going

1124
01:29:01.439 --> 01:29:03.920
to try to call him and get
him on. He's come on in the

1125
01:29:04.039 --> 01:29:10.520
past. Mount The man is a
crook. But let's hear the story first

1126
01:29:10.600 --> 01:29:14.640
before we call him. So what
happened at Mountain View Transmission and Gear,

1127
01:29:15.239 --> 01:29:19.720
Jeff rip Off scam artist Jolliffe?
What happened? Well? He said,

1128
01:29:19.880 --> 01:29:23.079
I give him the bin number.
I said, can you get the parts?

1129
01:29:23.079 --> 01:29:24.880
He said that I can get the
parts in three days and I'll have

1130
01:29:24.960 --> 01:29:27.560
it done in three days. I
said, okay, great. So I

1131
01:29:27.640 --> 01:29:30.199
took it to him and a week
later I called, did you pay up

1132
01:29:30.239 --> 01:29:34.960
front? Yes? We paid half
of He said he needed his money to

1133
01:29:35.079 --> 01:29:38.680
pay for parts and everything. So
how much did you pay up front?

1134
01:29:39.720 --> 01:29:45.319
Eighteen dollars? Oh my god,
it's like throwing money away. Yeah,

1135
01:29:46.000 --> 01:29:50.279
it is so. And then hey, you're lucky your vehicle didn't get stolen.

1136
01:29:51.199 --> 01:29:56.880
That's what we've heard. What happened
then? So he kept putting me

1137
01:29:57.000 --> 01:30:00.680
off with me, He kept on
saying that, well, a family member

1138
01:30:00.800 --> 01:30:02.960
was sick in the hospital. Yep, that's right, that's exactly right.

1139
01:30:03.199 --> 01:30:09.319
Yeah, or his emergency, or
his son is transitioning or something. There's

1140
01:30:09.319 --> 01:30:12.760
always an excuse. Then what happened
then? Parts? He said he couldn't

1141
01:30:12.760 --> 01:30:14.680
get parts. I said, well, you told me upfront you could get

1142
01:30:14.720 --> 01:30:16.439
parts within three days. Says,
well, no, I'm having problems getting

1143
01:30:16.479 --> 01:30:19.760
parts. And it went on,
I mean on and on and on.

1144
01:30:19.920 --> 01:30:26.119
He kept using family members and emergencies
and keep on texting him. He said,

1145
01:30:26.159 --> 01:30:28.079
yeah, you can come tomorrow,
be ready tomorrow. I'll be in

1146
01:30:28.199 --> 01:30:30.960
tomorrow. And this is the same
story. Man, here's what happens.

1147
01:30:31.159 --> 01:30:34.319
He spent your money. He doesn't
have the money to fix this. So

1148
01:30:34.399 --> 01:30:39.560
what happened? What ultimately happened?
This was December second. Now we're in

1149
01:30:39.800 --> 01:30:43.279
uh, you know, April or
March the end of March. What's going

1150
01:30:43.319 --> 01:30:47.840
on? So last week we finally
he could have these excuses that he couldn't

1151
01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:53.520
program the TCM and he didn't have
the right equipment to and he went through

1152
01:30:53.560 --> 01:30:58.920
two or three different TCMs, and
then last week he just quit returning my

1153
01:30:59.079 --> 01:31:03.000
calls and my text So I gave
the number to my wife and she didn't

1154
01:31:03.000 --> 01:31:05.640
He didn't know what her number was. So he's thinking he's getting a new

1155
01:31:05.680 --> 01:31:10.159
customer. And she called him and
he picked up right away, and she

1156
01:31:10.359 --> 01:31:15.720
started talking to him, and then
he told her just to have me come

1157
01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:17.199
and get the truck and have a
He said, the truck's ready, just

1158
01:31:17.279 --> 01:31:20.800
take it to the dealership and they
can program it for you. So I

1159
01:31:20.840 --> 01:31:25.479
said, okay. So I found
the dealership Davidson Gebhart and Loveland. They

1160
01:31:25.520 --> 01:31:27.840
said, yeah, bring in,
we can program it and be done.

1161
01:31:28.520 --> 01:31:31.199
So I went down to get it. It wouldn't even start. I drove

1162
01:31:31.279 --> 01:31:33.359
it to him. We're in.
When I took it to him, it

1163
01:31:33.439 --> 01:31:35.840
drove. I drove it to him. It wouldn't start. Had to get

1164
01:31:35.840 --> 01:31:41.840
a tow truck to tow it to
Davidson Gebhart. I got it there.

1165
01:31:41.920 --> 01:31:45.000
Their mechanics started looking at it.
Did he claim, Bill? Did he

1166
01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:48.319
claim? I'm dying to hear if
he actually put a transmission in? I

1167
01:31:48.439 --> 01:31:51.279
know, that's what I want to
know. He claimed he put a transmission

1168
01:31:51.319 --> 01:31:56.000
in, right, Yes, he
claimed he rebuilt my transmission and put it

1169
01:31:56.079 --> 01:31:59.520
back in, and it was they
would run if they just programmed at TCM.

1170
01:32:00.119 --> 01:32:02.399
Kay, got it then, okay, keep going then, so they

1171
01:32:02.479 --> 01:32:06.399
got it. A mechanic looked at
it, started taking apart nothing. The

1172
01:32:06.720 --> 01:32:12.399
transmission was different. It wasn't my
transmission. He put a transmission from a

1173
01:32:12.520 --> 01:32:17.520
twenty eleven Avalanche back in. The
bolt pattern didn't even match with the engine

1174
01:32:17.520 --> 01:32:21.119
that's in my truck. And did
he say it was a rebuilt transmission for

1175
01:32:21.239 --> 01:32:27.359
you? He said, you rebuilt
my transmission. Yes, Oh, but

1176
01:32:27.479 --> 01:32:31.079
it wasn't even the correct transmission to
even fit my truck. And the transmission

1177
01:32:31.119 --> 01:32:35.079
food was still dirty. There was
metal filings in the pan. So he

1178
01:32:35.239 --> 01:32:42.000
actually put a used transmission in,
yes, and not even the correct correct

1179
01:32:42.039 --> 01:32:44.399
one to even fit. Right.
I'm going to call him for a comment,

1180
01:32:44.560 --> 01:32:49.000
Tom on break. Okay, So
he said he put in a transmission.

1181
01:32:49.399 --> 01:32:56.039
You took it to a dealer and
and it it was a used one

1182
01:32:57.399 --> 01:33:00.159
h and wrong, marks that were
missing and parts that were broken. Now

1183
01:33:00.239 --> 01:33:05.199
where does it stand right now?
I had David and Chevrolet put a new

1184
01:33:05.239 --> 01:33:12.239
transmission in for me, and I
have it now, it's running. And

1185
01:33:12.359 --> 01:33:19.319
how much was it paid? Eighty
two hundred dollars and to pick all the

1186
01:33:19.399 --> 01:33:25.880
parts and fix everything that he broke
and that was missing that he didn't and

1187
01:33:26.039 --> 01:33:31.319
he paid Jeff what eighteen hundred down? Yes, yeah, this guy's incredible.

1188
01:33:32.119 --> 01:33:38.159
It's still in possesion of that old
transmission, probably court it. Yeah.

1189
01:33:38.279 --> 01:33:41.720
I picked him back and told him
the leadership that said that wasn't the

1190
01:33:41.840 --> 01:33:44.640
right transmission. He says, well, yeah, that's it. I said.

1191
01:33:44.640 --> 01:33:45.840
He goes, I don't have a
core, so I don't have the

1192
01:33:45.920 --> 01:33:48.720
old trans that's the right transmission.
I said, no, it's not so

1193
01:33:48.880 --> 01:33:51.520
luckily listen, I got to take
a break. But I'm going to tell

1194
01:33:51.560 --> 01:33:59.079
everyone this Jeff Jolliffe should be in
prison. He is a dirty, rotten

1195
01:34:00.159 --> 01:34:05.960
He's a scumbag. This man has
no redeeming value I have. I am

1196
01:34:06.199 --> 01:34:12.079
shocked. There are three people I've
met in the auto business that are the

1197
01:34:12.159 --> 01:34:15.359
worst that ever lived. Jeff Jolliffe
is one of them. And the other

1198
01:34:15.479 --> 01:34:21.760
one is Jim Weee and he's forty
fourth auto. The last name he had

1199
01:34:21.840 --> 01:34:26.439
where he could have another one.
And then the third one I don't even

1200
01:34:26.479 --> 01:34:30.960
know he's still around. His name
was Jack Shariffe, like in Sheriff,

1201
01:34:31.199 --> 01:34:36.920
and he did four by four.
Do you remember him Sharif? Yeah,

1202
01:34:38.039 --> 01:34:40.840
yeah, years and years ago.
I don't even know if he's still around.

1203
01:34:41.439 --> 01:34:45.760
But anyway, those are the three
worst that ever lived. I'm Tom

1213
01:35:39.319 --> 01:35:42.399
Tom, Yes, I did try. I left a message for Jeff

1214
01:35:42.479 --> 01:35:44.960
jall if I don't know what you
want to do with Monty and Beverly,

1215
01:35:45.600 --> 01:35:47.359
but I left a message for him
to give us a call. I want

1216
01:35:47.399 --> 01:35:51.039
to know Monty and Beverly. I
think they know they're not going to get

1217
01:35:51.079 --> 01:35:54.960
anything out of this, and I
think they also know that we're not going

1218
01:35:55.039 --> 01:35:58.880
to get anywhere with him. So
you just wanted to get that word out.

1219
01:35:58.920 --> 01:36:02.119
I suspect right, we'd like to
get our deposit back. There's no

1220
01:36:02.199 --> 01:36:04.399
way we can. Well, you
can do it. Here's what you can

1221
01:36:04.479 --> 01:36:06.960
do. You're gonna win a small
claims court. The guy's not going to

1222
01:36:08.000 --> 01:36:11.399
show up. You're gonna win,
but you won't get anything. Now,

1223
01:36:11.680 --> 01:36:14.520
Well, here's the thing. No
one's ever tried to do anything. I

1224
01:36:14.640 --> 01:36:17.239
think you could, and here's what
I think you could do. I've done

1225
01:36:17.279 --> 01:36:21.479
it. I did it years ago
to a hot tub guy. Years ago,

1226
01:36:21.600 --> 01:36:27.239
a hot tub guy was taking deposits
and not delivering hot tubs. We

1227
01:36:27.399 --> 01:36:31.560
got an attorney and sued him,
and we got judgments. Then we did

1228
01:36:31.640 --> 01:36:40.840
what was called a writ writ of
execution with what you are allowed to go

1229
01:36:40.960 --> 01:36:45.920
in and literally take his stuff equal
to the amount year owed. That means

1230
01:36:46.039 --> 01:36:50.800
tools, transmission, whatever. Now
does anyone ever go that far? No

1231
01:36:50.960 --> 01:36:57.520
one, but you could. And
that's what these guys need, you know.

1232
01:36:58.319 --> 01:37:02.439
I'm just shocked. Most of the
time in the past, the complaint

1233
01:37:02.720 --> 01:37:08.159
was you would take it back there, right, and then he would call

1234
01:37:08.279 --> 01:37:15.560
you and say, Monty, your
truck was stolen. So you then he

1235
01:37:15.680 --> 01:37:20.760
doesn't have to do the repair,
but you have to put it in on

1236
01:37:20.880 --> 01:37:25.600
your insurance because he claims he has
nothing to do with it. Yeah,

1237
01:37:27.000 --> 01:37:29.880
oh man, you know it.
Don't gloss over. If you're new to

1238
01:37:29.960 --> 01:37:32.560
the Jeff Joliff story, don't gloss
over what Tom just said. We had

1239
01:37:32.680 --> 01:37:38.000
three people, three different people that
didn't know each other, bring their trucks

1240
01:37:38.079 --> 01:37:43.520
back for warranty work, and the
next day they were stolen. Three different

1241
01:37:43.560 --> 01:37:45.439
people. It's crazy. And those
are just the three that called you.

1242
01:37:45.840 --> 01:37:49.600
Yeah, and that's the three that
just called here, that's right. Yeah.

1243
01:37:49.680 --> 01:37:54.159
The mechanic put it on Facebook what
this guy did. Because this mechanic's

1244
01:37:54.159 --> 01:37:57.119
been doing it for twenty years,
he's never seen anything this bad. He

1245
01:37:57.239 --> 01:38:00.439
put on Facebook and he said he
had so many people respond on to him

1246
01:38:00.560 --> 01:38:04.600
saying oh, can you give us
that give that Facebook to sues off the

1247
01:38:04.640 --> 01:38:08.840
air, because what I want to
do is link to it for my Sleaves

1248
01:38:08.880 --> 01:38:12.199
brigade. You really should just go
through it. Let's I'll help you on

1249
01:38:12.319 --> 01:38:15.359
the small claims, not on the
legal side, but I can send you

1250
01:38:15.479 --> 01:38:17.760
the forms. I can tell you
how to find out. You know who

1251
01:38:17.840 --> 01:38:21.840
this guy is, and you're probably
company for triple damages too. Yeah,

1252
01:38:21.920 --> 01:38:26.760
I was asked the Colorado Repair Act. He didn't do the proper paperwork,

1253
01:38:26.800 --> 01:38:30.119
the warranties, you know everything.
I just can't believe there's not a DA

1254
01:38:30.359 --> 01:38:33.760
that hasn't shut this guy down.
Right, he's amazing. He's in a

1255
01:38:33.840 --> 01:38:38.199
new county. Maybe it's worth taking
a shot called d'a's office. So he's

1256
01:38:38.279 --> 01:38:42.760
in birthed Man. Yeah, he's
right off my twenty five in the Johnstown

1257
01:38:42.840 --> 01:38:45.399
exit. But it's considered birth of
God. Hey, we're at least getting

1258
01:38:45.439 --> 01:38:50.199
them closer and closer to Wyoming.
What county is that? That would be

1259
01:38:50.319 --> 01:38:56.439
Laimber County. Who Okay, and
it's a good thing. It's not Well

1260
01:38:56.600 --> 01:39:00.359
they welcome him because they're all crooked. He fit right in. You know,

1261
01:39:00.439 --> 01:39:02.800
it might be Well County because well, County crosses over the interstate someplace

1262
01:39:02.880 --> 01:39:08.159
there, so it might be it
sounds let's put it this way, that

1263
01:39:08.279 --> 01:39:11.640
would be apropos for him. Weld
County. They're a bunch of crooks.

1264
01:39:12.800 --> 01:39:15.399
There are a bunch of crooks.
The government up there is so corrupt.

1265
01:39:15.279 --> 01:39:17.000
I mean, I don't want to
get into it. Is that when that

1266
01:39:17.159 --> 01:39:20.039
cell tower deal happened? Yeah,
yeah, yeah, that's one of them.

1267
01:39:20.720 --> 01:39:24.239
But this this Tom Parko, I
don't even know if he's still an

1268
01:39:24.279 --> 01:39:28.920
office up there. That's scum bag
Tom Parko. What a scum bag,

1269
01:39:29.159 --> 01:39:32.359
lying cheat and piece of crap.
How do you really think of the guy?

1270
01:39:33.039 --> 01:39:39.600
Oh my god, Planning and Building
Services director and the reason I think

1271
01:39:39.960 --> 01:39:42.800

guy. If you're if you want to

1272
01:39:42.880 --> 01:39:47.840

1285
01:40:45.039 --> 01:40:48.560
going on my tom? Thank you
for taking call. Yes, sir,

1286
01:40:53.079 --> 01:40:56.640
my domestic partner, common law wife, whatever you want to call it.

1287
01:40:56.800 --> 01:41:00.439
We were together for one month shy
of twenty one years. Uh huh.

1288
01:41:00.760 --> 01:41:05.960
She passed away in February. Okay. And so the mobile homes that we

1289
01:41:06.119 --> 01:41:11.920
live in was bought and paid for
like twelve years ago by who and by

1290
01:41:12.039 --> 01:41:16.039
who by it had her name on
the title only because I was in Georgia

1291
01:41:16.119 --> 01:41:25.920
taking care of my elderly mom when
she bought Okay, Okay. So now

1292
01:41:26.840 --> 01:41:30.760
her daughter says that the titles in
her name and I have to move and

1293
01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:33.920
I have to leave all the stuff
in the house that we bought to get.

1294
01:41:34.039 --> 01:41:38.319
Well, that's not true. Okay, she can say anything she wants.

1295
01:41:39.079 --> 01:41:44.319
Now, what documentation do you have
to show you were married? I

1296
01:41:44.479 --> 01:41:49.000
have two joint bank accounts or car
vehicle title with both our names on it.

1297
01:41:49.199 --> 01:41:53.840
Do you have any applications where it
asked for a spouse that you put

1298
01:41:53.880 --> 01:41:56.520
her down or she put you down
in the past? Not now, not

1299
01:41:56.880 --> 01:41:59.960
like that you just did, but
like, do you have any passed out

1300
01:42:00.000 --> 01:42:04.199
applications with credit cards or with anything
at all, jobs, fringe benefits,

1301
01:42:04.279 --> 01:42:11.199
anything, not that I'm aware of. I don't, okay, Chris.

1302
01:42:11.560 --> 01:42:15.159
Next question, do you have friends
or neighbors that are relatives that will attest

1303
01:42:15.199 --> 01:42:19.680
to the fact that you held yourselves
out as being married? Well, we

1304
01:42:19.920 --> 01:42:26.760
have. We used to go to
Cripple Creek and when she passed away,

1305
01:42:26.920 --> 01:42:31.199
she had like seven hundred dollars on
her card and they transferred it to my

1306
01:42:31.399 --> 01:42:35.439
card because I was considered her spouse. Well, how did they consider you

1307
01:42:35.600 --> 01:42:42.760
her spouse because she told them that
we were married? Okay? Well they

1308
01:42:42.920 --> 01:42:45.079
okay, here here, let me
put it to you this way, Chris,

1309
01:42:45.600 --> 01:42:47.840
you are common law married if you
guys say you are, and if

1310
01:42:47.840 --> 01:42:51.479
you had joint accounts and all that. However, if the child comes in

1311
01:42:51.640 --> 01:42:58.319
now and is greedy and wants all
of her stuff, she's in line for

1312
01:42:58.520 --> 01:43:01.399
all of her stuff with out a
will. Does did your spouse have a

1313
01:43:01.479 --> 01:43:09.720
will? She didn't have a will. She on Christmas Eve she sent her

1314
01:43:09.800 --> 01:43:14.239
oldest daughter a list of her final
wishes, and of course none of them

1315
01:43:14.399 --> 01:43:19.279
have been hold on. How did
she send it handwritten? I'm sorry?

1316
01:43:19.680 --> 01:43:27.840
Did she send it handwritten? I'm
sorry? Did she send it handwritten?

1317
01:43:29.800 --> 01:43:33.880
No? It was in Facebook messenger? Okay, do you have a copy

1318
01:43:34.000 --> 01:43:42.119
of it? Oh yeah, Okay, listen, here's what it comes down

1319
01:43:42.199 --> 01:43:47.399
to proof. See, here's why
common law marriage hardly has to prove anything

1320
01:43:47.479 --> 01:43:53.199
unless someone objects to it. If
someone objects to it, like this girl's

1321
01:43:53.239 --> 01:43:55.920
going to say, is she claiming
you were never married? Is that what

1322
01:43:56.039 --> 01:44:00.680
she's going to claim? No,
she's claiming that that since there wasn't a

1323
01:44:00.760 --> 01:44:04.199
will that she could take, she
already took the house and put it in

1324
01:44:04.319 --> 01:44:08.800
her name. How did she do
that legally? How did she do it?

1325
01:44:09.319 --> 01:44:12.800
Because I gave the title to her
brother. He was supposed to do

1326

1343

1344
01:45:47.840 --> 01:45:54.199
is a state planning attorney and McKenzie
law. We'll give out his number right

1345

after this. And he's locally.
We use him as an expert. And

1346
01:45:58.119 --> 01:46:02.479
Dan Chris was married twenty one years
common law to a woman. They held

1347
01:46:02.520 --> 01:46:09.600
themselves out as married. All of
their finances were combined, and they just

1348
01:46:09.760 --> 01:46:14.760
held himself out as married. That's
all we can say. He has nothing

1349
01:46:15.000 --> 01:46:20.239
really in writing other than joint accounts
of the past. There was no will.

1350
01:46:21.039 --> 01:46:27.399
There was some kind of Facebook message
the mom sent to her daughter or

1351
01:46:27.520 --> 01:46:31.479
his wife sent to her her daughter, not their daughter, her daughter and

1352
01:46:31.800 --> 01:46:36.199
Chris in that Facebook message, first
of all, was she expecting to die?

1353
01:46:36.319 --> 01:46:43.399
Did she have a problem? Was
she what? Why did she send

1354
01:46:43.479 --> 01:46:51.880
a Facebook message to her? Oh? She she just wanted everything squared away

1355
01:46:51.960 --> 01:47:00.359
because her kidneys to completely quit and
she was like scared to death of order

1356
01:47:00.479 --> 01:47:03.880
dialysis and all. Okay, and
what did this? What did her wishes

1357
01:47:03.960 --> 01:47:08.760
say? Okay, hang on a
second, I'm trying to find it.

1358
01:47:08.920 --> 01:47:12.199
I've got it, I know.
And is there any proof she wrote it?

1359
01:47:14.399 --> 01:47:17.520
Yeah? Does it mention what she
wants done with her stuff? Her

1360
01:47:17.640 --> 01:47:24.159
dollar? Does it mention what she
wants done with her stuff? Okay?

1361
01:47:24.319 --> 01:47:26.840
Let me let me. I don't
want you to read it, Chris.

1362
01:47:26.960 --> 01:47:29.840
I just want you to give me
your best recollection, please. It's not

1363
01:47:29.960 --> 01:47:35.000
that important in general. In general. What did it say? It said

1364
01:47:35.279 --> 01:47:44.640
she had she had one hundred and
fifteen thousand dollars an insurance that with all

1365
01:47:44.720 --> 01:47:51.359
of her oldest daughter to pay her
debt and to uh split it up between

1366
01:47:53.880 --> 01:47:57.960
her and their brother, her brother
and sisters. Okay, so she wanted

1367
01:47:58.039 --> 01:48:00.399
life insurance to go to the kids. What did she say about the mobile

1368
01:48:00.439 --> 01:48:08.359
home? It says, which just
says, don't read it, Chris,

1369
01:48:08.720 --> 01:48:15.399
just tell me please. It says
Chris could stay in in my mobile home

1370
01:48:15.439 --> 01:48:19.640
when he gets when he leaves it, it goes to Tanny. Okay,

1371
01:48:19.760 --> 01:48:24.119
So you stay in there for how
long the rest of your life or as

1372
01:48:24.199 --> 01:48:28.239
long as you want, as long
as as long as I want to live

1373
01:48:28.319 --> 01:48:30.720
here. That's the way I read, okay. And what about her personal

1374
01:48:30.800 --> 01:48:36.279
stuff inside the trailer? There is
nothing with that. It's all considered the

1375
01:48:36.439 --> 01:48:42.079
house. Well, first of all, here's what's really strange. You were

1376
01:48:42.119 --> 01:48:46.640
together for twenty one years, okay. And what's really strange is she's not

1377
01:48:46.880 --> 01:48:53.199
allowed to leave you out of her
will or her last wishes. Okay,

1378
01:48:53.279 --> 01:48:56.880
she's not allowed to If you could
prove you were married, That's what I'm

1379
01:48:56.920 --> 01:49:00.399
going to ask Dan about, because
it seems to me you could. You

1380
01:49:00.560 --> 01:49:03.119
could claim no matter what she wrote. I believe I might be wrong,

1381
01:49:03.560 --> 01:49:09.840
but I believe you could claim fifty
percent of that cash and fifty percent of

1382
01:49:09.920 --> 01:49:13.600
everything. And he'll explain that if
I'm right or wrong. But here's the

1383
01:49:13.680 --> 01:49:17.000
other thing. Okay, here's the
other thing. Right now, the mobile

1384
01:49:17.039 --> 01:49:23.960
home titled in her name only was
already transferred to the daughter. Is that

1385
01:49:24.119 --> 01:49:30.640
correct? Yeah? Did they open
up a probate? I have no earthly

1386
01:49:30.760 --> 01:49:38.840
idea how long ago was the death. It was on February sixth, about

1387
01:49:38.880 --> 01:49:43.920
seven weeks ago. Chris. My
sympathy is for your loss, really,

1388
01:49:44.039 --> 01:49:46.520
But now let's get down to business. I mean, you may have to

1389
01:49:46.600 --> 01:49:50.640
take some legal action to claw back
some of that stuff. I mean,

1390
01:49:50.800 --> 01:49:56.199
are you out on the street right
now? No, I don't want any

1391
01:49:56.279 --> 01:49:59.079
of the money. I just want
her her. I just want to be

1392
01:49:59.119 --> 01:50:02.560
able to stay in the else that
we shared for twelve years. Well that's

1393
01:50:02.680 --> 01:50:05.720
very nice of you, because you
could use the threat of taking the money

1394
01:50:05.800 --> 01:50:09.279
to stay there. I don't know, but let me ask you something here.

1395
01:50:09.800 --> 01:50:14.880
You just want to stay there,
and who's going to pay the expenses?

1396
01:50:15.479 --> 01:50:18.880
You? I'll pay all the expenses
now, Chris is another question I

1397
01:50:19.000 --> 01:50:24.800
have? Where are you now?
Did they kick you out? No?

1398
01:50:25.560 --> 01:50:29.680
Are they threatening to kick you out? She said, I have to be

1399
01:50:29.840 --> 01:50:34.119
gone by the five o'clock on the
twentieth of April, and I already paid

1400
01:50:34.399 --> 01:50:40.880
April and made lot rint. Okay, Dan, take it away. You

1401
01:50:41.000 --> 01:50:44.319
heard everything. There's quite a bit
going on here. I mean, you

1402
01:50:44.359 --> 01:50:45.640
know, can they even a victim, even if they have the right to

1403
01:50:45.680 --> 01:50:50.000
do so. That's not a real
easy process. So I wouldn't necessarily pulled

1404
01:50:50.039 --> 01:50:55.520
in the face of that threat.
But there's a couple other things going on

1405
01:50:55.640 --> 01:50:58.960
here. If you were married,
you really are And she had no will.

1406
01:50:59.119 --> 01:51:01.119
I mean, the Spacebook message is
not a will. Okay. You

1407
01:51:01.479 --> 01:51:04.359
have to have testamentary intent. It
has to be signed, it has to

1408
01:51:04.399 --> 01:51:10.159
be either in her handwriting, notarized
witness something. So if Facebook message does

1409
01:51:10.239 --> 01:51:13.159
not really count as a will.
So let's just say she does not have

1410
01:51:13.279 --> 01:51:15.800
a will. If you can prove
that people thought you were married, you're

1411
01:51:15.920 --> 01:51:20.520
the spouse. You're entitled to the
first two hundred one thousand of her estate,

1412
01:51:20.560 --> 01:51:24.840
which probably covers this mobile home,
and then split with her kids after

1413
01:51:24.920 --> 01:51:29.399
that. If she did have a
will, if somehow that came up.

1414
01:51:29.880 --> 01:51:32.279
That's what Tom's talking about with that
fifty percent. If the will. If

1415
01:51:32.279 --> 01:51:35.000
there's a will that cut you out
and you're the spouse, then you can

1416
01:51:35.000 --> 01:51:40.199
step in and exlain that fifty percent. Okay. If there wasn't a will,

1417
01:51:40.359 --> 01:51:44.039
then how does it go again.
It's a weird formula. When the

1418
01:51:44.119 --> 01:51:47.479
person who passed away had kids separately
from their spouse, there's a math formula

1419
01:51:47.600 --> 01:51:51.079
and it's like the first two hundred
and one thousand dollars goes to the spouse,

1420
01:51:51.479 --> 01:51:55.880
and then the spouse and kids split
everything above that fifty to fifty.

1421
01:51:56.520 --> 01:51:59.359
You know, Chris, I would
not let this go. I don't care

1422
01:51:59.439 --> 01:52:01.520
what you say. I would not
let it go. I would have an

1423
01:52:01.520 --> 01:52:06.079
attorney write a letter to that effect, and I would. Then you can

1424
01:52:06.199 --> 01:52:10.640
use it as leverage. You can
always settle for just the mobile home,

1425
01:52:11.119 --> 01:52:14.079
and not just to live there on
your own, but to have it and

1426
01:52:14.199 --> 01:52:17.239
own it. I'm telling you you
can't sit on your rights with this.

1427
01:52:17.800 --> 01:52:21.279
Can you get people to attest?
What kind of proof would he need?

1428
01:52:21.479 --> 01:52:26.920
Dan McKenzie, It's it's pretty wide
ranging Christmas cards that went out. I

1429
01:52:26.960 --> 01:52:29.720
mean, just anyone showing up saying, yeah, but they're married. It

1430
01:52:29.760 --> 01:52:32.199
could be tax returns in CID,
if joint accounts, that's evidence. If

1431
01:52:32.279 --> 01:52:35.720
she referred to him as her husband
and vice versa. I mean, it's

1432
01:52:35.800 --> 01:52:40.239
a it's kind of a it can
be a mix, it can be a

1433
01:52:40.279 --> 01:52:44.399
mix of anything. Okay, we
had two we had account at two banks.

1434
01:52:44.479 --> 01:52:47.159
Both of them were in our names, both of okay, but does

1435
01:52:47.239 --> 01:52:55.039
it list you as a spouse or
just two people? It just lists the

1436
01:52:55.319 --> 01:53:00.079
joint account holders. Did people think
you were Mary liked? Did everyone in

1437
01:53:00.119 --> 01:53:03.439
your life kind of think, oh
their husband and wife? Yeah? Hey,

1438
01:53:03.520 --> 01:53:08.279
Chris, Then I have a question
for you. Did the daughter think

1439
01:53:08.359 --> 01:53:14.319
you were married? She's an idiot. I'm not even going to get into

1440
01:53:14.359 --> 01:53:18.000
all that. Did the other kids
think you were married? Well, you

1441
01:53:18.119 --> 01:53:23.279
know, I don't know, because
one of them just got out of prison

1442
01:53:23.359 --> 01:53:27.680
after twelve years, and the other
one wouldn't know the truth of it walking.

1443
01:53:27.880 --> 01:53:30.760
Well, listen, the only date
that one is in Maryland. I'm

1444
01:53:30.800 --> 01:53:34.439
going to to Chris. I'm really
serious when I tell you this. You

1445
01:53:34.600 --> 01:53:38.560
need to call Dan mackenzie off the
air. Just call him and talk to

1446
01:53:38.680 --> 01:53:42.840
him. This is too much to
let go. You literally would get every

1447
01:53:42.880 --> 01:53:49.720
penny of that cash. I'm telling
you there's no reason why you shouldn't you.

1448
01:53:49.960 --> 01:53:57.399
You were married to her for twenty
one years, and I'm telling you

1449
01:53:58.319 --> 01:54:01.359
that you need you really need to
talk to her about this. Okay,

1450
01:54:03.680 --> 01:54:08.079
Okay, I mean talk to him
about it, about her and listen.

1451
01:54:09.000 --> 01:54:11.840
Then you can use that. You
don't have to. You don't have to

1452
01:54:11.880 --> 01:54:15.239
take all the money. You can
take some of it. You can negotiate

1453
01:54:15.319 --> 01:54:19.000
it. But these people are ram
rotting you right now. Yeah, I

1454
01:54:19.159 --> 01:54:23.840
need that. I knew this was
going to happen. Well, then you

1455
01:54:24.000 --> 01:54:28.319
need to stick up for yourself and
everyone else. Common law married, you

1456
01:54:28.479 --> 01:54:32.920
need to start keeping evidence in case
your spouse wins a lottery and croaks.

1457
01:54:33.159 --> 01:54:41.840
Absolutely, absolutely, yeah, I
have legal shield. And I called him

1458
01:54:41.920 --> 01:54:44.039
that day, and this guy called
me and he said, well, tell

1459
01:54:44.119 --> 01:54:46.720
him to Vick you when you get
into court, if you can prove you'll

1460
01:54:46.760 --> 01:54:49.800
common law marriage, they'll tell them
to go pack, saying to give you

1461
01:54:49.880 --> 01:54:53.359
the title of the house. Yeah, but wait a minute, what did

1462
01:54:53.399 --> 01:54:56.600
they say about the first two hundred
and one thousand dollars? Did they mention

1463
01:54:56.760 --> 01:54:59.800
that? They didn't say anything about
that? When and you say you have

1464
01:55:00.039 --> 01:55:03.720
legal shield, did they let you
talk to actual state attorneys? Yeah?

1465
01:55:03.960 --> 01:55:08.800
They did. Listen, if they
don't handle this for you, first of

1466
01:55:08.800 --> 01:55:15.439
all, how much you pay for
legal shield month? Okay, it's wasted

1467
01:55:15.520 --> 01:55:18.399
money in my opinion, But why
don't you prove me wrong and have them,

1468
01:55:18.920 --> 01:55:23.600
have them give you some real advice
on fighting this. They should have

1469
01:55:23.680 --> 01:55:26.920
told you we can go to court
and you can get the whole thing.

1470
01:55:27.399 --> 01:55:32.399
All you have to do is gather
your proof. Dan, what would you

1471
01:55:32.520 --> 01:55:40.279
have him gather? Can he get
affidavits? That'd be something to do.

1472
01:55:40.479 --> 01:55:44.720
I mean, I guess just kind
of thinking through a little brainstorm session of

1473
01:55:44.840 --> 01:55:46.680
like who did we talk to?
About? Who did I who did she

1474
01:55:46.840 --> 01:55:50.600
refer to me as her husband to? And did she ever refer to you

1475
01:55:50.680 --> 01:55:59.279
as her husband on social media?
I'm pretty sure she did, but I

1476
01:55:59.319 --> 01:56:04.000
don't have at any situation that come
I mean, any letters that went out,

1477
01:56:04.079 --> 01:56:08.359
like I said, Christmas card can
be helpful, but any Yes,

1478
01:56:08.479 --> 01:56:11.920
if you get into a court and
they're really challenging it by getting neighbors to

1479
01:56:11.960 --> 01:56:14.800
show up saying yeah, if that
they're married, they refer to each other

1480
01:56:14.840 --> 01:56:17.920
as husband and wife like that would
be that would be helpful. So my

1481
01:56:18.079 --> 01:56:21.520
name door neighbor will say that.
In the New York second, the guy

1482
01:56:21.600 --> 01:56:26.640
that is the manager at the mobile
home park will say that we were married.

Joe, thank you very much for your

1504
01:58:14.319 --> 01:58:18.000
for your kindness. We appreciate that. Gary, you have a follow up

1505
01:58:18.119 --> 01:58:26.920
call about a hot tub. Go
ahead, Gary, Oh this is I

1506
01:58:27.039 --> 01:58:30.000
know this is that's the guy who
wants to get the uh that hot tub

1507
01:58:30.479 --> 01:58:34.640
guy from his neighborhood. He said, someone else called recently complain. And

1508
01:58:34.800 --> 01:58:39.399
and by the way, when I
had put up that other guy I thought

1509
01:58:39.560 --> 01:58:44.159
was Gary, I was wrong and
I started working on Gary. I'm excuse

1510
01:58:44.239 --> 01:58:46.840
me on the other guy. So
I am going to that that hot tub

1511
01:58:46.920 --> 01:58:51.159
guy is ripping a lot of people
off. And again, Man, we

1512
01:58:51.439 --> 01:58:56.560
we route out those bad guys,
don't we. It's it's unbelievable. So

1513
01:58:56.640 --> 01:59:00.359
are you calling to tell me what? Gary? Just to remind me to

1514
01:59:00.399 --> 01:59:08.079
get him up there on sleeves brigade. Right, Gary, I'll tell you

1515
01:59:08.119 --> 01:59:11.399
what's a new call? Hang on, Okay, let me just move on.

1516
01:59:12.239 --> 01:59:14.560
Eric, Go ahead, Eric,
Welcome. What's going on? Eric?

1517
01:59:16.479 --> 01:59:23.479
My friend's monitor was involved in a
three car accident and all three parties

1518
01:59:23.520 --> 01:59:27.000
have state farmed. Oh that's going
to be a cluster you know what,

1519
01:59:27.960 --> 01:59:31.600
a cluster farm. That's what I
told her. Anyway, So here's what's

1520
01:59:31.640 --> 01:59:38.479
going to happen. They're going to
a try to assign comparative negligence, so

1521
01:59:38.720 --> 01:59:42.960
each one has to pay a deductible
Now what are you calling about? Do

1522
01:59:43.000 --> 01:59:47.279
you have a specific question. Well, she was not at fault. She

1523
01:59:47.560 --> 01:59:51.119
was parked at I think a stop
sign. Or whatever, and a car

1524
01:59:53.199 --> 01:59:58.079
veered or swerved out of the way
and ended up sideswiping her, and then

1525
01:59:58.159 --> 02:00:02.239
the car behind that girl hit that
car. I but it's going to this.

1526
02:00:02.359 --> 02:00:06.680
There's not enough insurance. Is that
correct? I don't know. I

1527
02:00:06.720 --> 02:00:11.760
don't know the specifics on what life
on what they have. If she wasn't

1528
02:00:11.800 --> 02:00:16.039
at fault, she should have Okay, does she have full coverage? I

1529
02:00:16.159 --> 02:00:20.560
believe so because it's a twenty twenty
one Subaru outbeck. Okay, she's got

1530
02:00:20.720 --> 02:00:24.920
to go after the other party.
The other party is her own insurance.

1531
02:00:25.079 --> 02:00:30.880
It's going to be tricky. Is
she injured? Uh? She says she's

1532
02:00:30.920 --> 02:00:32.640
a little sore. I told her
to go to the hospital because more than

1533
02:00:32.880 --> 02:00:36.760
likely, then what she should do
is call John Fuller for sure, just

1534
02:00:36.880 --> 02:00:41.560
to just to be sure. Just
have Eric, I swear to God,

1535
02:00:41.720 --> 02:00:45.279
just have the conversation with John.
If he doesn't think it should be going

1536
02:00:45.319 --> 02:00:47.960
anywhere, he'll tell you. But
you're crazy, You're absolutely crazy not to

1537
02:00:48.039 --> 02:00:53.439
have that conversation, right and then
well, go ahead. She lives in

1538
02:00:53.479 --> 02:00:56.600
Alaska. Oh, okay, then
you're not going to talk. I take

1539
02:00:56.680 --> 02:01:00.279
back everything I just said. She's
gonna have to talk to I couldn't let

1540
02:01:00.319 --> 02:01:03.119
in with that. Sorry. Hey, here's what you have to do.

1541
02:01:03.760 --> 02:01:10.279
Find a personal injury attorney and talk
to them at least definitely. Next thing

1542
02:01:10.359 --> 02:01:15.600
you want to do when it comes
to property damage damage to the vehicle,

1543
02:01:15.319 --> 02:01:21.560
she needs to let them the other
party cover it to avoid her deductible call

1544
02:01:21.680 --> 02:01:25.399
us up once you get the lay
of the land. I wish John was

1545
02:01:25.439 --> 02:01:28.880
still up. I just thought of
sometimes maybe you know the answer. John

1546
02:01:28.960 --> 02:01:31.720
always preaches, do not talk to
the other person's insurance. And we all

1547
02:01:31.840 --> 02:01:34.840
understand why they're going to try to
trick you into it, right, They're

1548
02:01:34.840 --> 02:01:39.600
going to try to trick you a
period. But when the other insurance company

1549
02:01:39.760 --> 02:01:43.359
is your insurance company, how do
you not talk to them? Well,

1550
02:01:43.399 --> 02:01:46.000
you have to. You have to
answer basic questions. So that's the thing

1551
02:01:46.199 --> 02:01:49.439
Eric gets tricky. You better talk
to an attorney. Man, Yeah,

1552
02:01:49.520 --> 02:01:54.560
you really do need Yeah. I
just wanted to hear it from the horse's

1553
02:01:54.600 --> 02:01:59.039
mouth. Yeah, No, I
know what you're saying and what that,

1554
02:01:59.279 --> 02:02:04.479
So call one. But the personal
injury attorney may not help you directly with

1555
02:02:04.880 --> 02:02:10.720
property damage. So when it comes
to property damage, then she just gives

1556
02:02:10.760 --> 02:02:15.600
the information that she was a victim. She was hit. That's all you

1557
02:02:15.720 --> 02:02:18.840
can do. Now. Rod's got
a question about selling an RV. Rod,

1558
02:02:19.439 --> 02:02:25.960
What do you want to know Tom
taking a payment for the RV I'm

1559
02:02:26.039 --> 02:02:30.560
selling? What's the best way to
take that payment? Okay? First and

1560
02:02:30.680 --> 02:02:34.079
foremost, where did you advertise?
I need to ask these basic questions?

1561
02:02:35.119 --> 02:02:40.199
You know what I have not yet. I was looking at Trader RV to

1562
02:02:40.319 --> 02:02:43.840
go ahead and put it on there. I did call Lazy Days. I

1563
02:02:43.960 --> 02:02:46.680
called camp World. As far as
where I'm at on what I owe for

1564
02:02:46.920 --> 02:02:50.680
and what they're offering is not a
good match for me. What year is

1565
02:02:50.720 --> 02:02:56.279
it? What kind of RV do
you have? It's a many Winny Winnebago

1566
02:02:57.119 --> 02:03:01.960
twenty nineteen twenty two, and it
has five thousand miles on it? And

1567
02:03:02.119 --> 02:03:06.479
how much do you owe on it? We? Oh, forty? And

1568
02:03:06.640 --> 02:03:12.680
what are they offering you on a
quick buy? Well, RV Trader had

1569
02:03:12.960 --> 02:03:16.720
forty five. Oh oh like Lazy
Days thirty two to four. Okay,

1570
02:03:17.399 --> 02:03:23.880
I'm sorry. So they're offering you
Whosts sale Yeah exactly, Okay, I

1571
02:03:23.960 --> 02:03:27.800
said of retails at forty seven.
So okay, yeah, they're pretty honest

1572
02:03:27.840 --> 02:03:30.520
about that stuff. I mean,
Whostsale is Yeah, sometimes they go over

1573
02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:34.800
wholesale though, here's what you need
to do. Then, if you need

1574
02:03:34.880 --> 02:03:41.039
to sell it privately, you're good. I just want to warn you you're

1575
02:03:41.079 --> 02:03:45.000
gonna be You're gonna get more ripoff
inquiries than real ones, well even the

1576
02:03:45.159 --> 02:03:47.840
valid ones. He gets he's up
again something because he's not holding the title.

1577
02:03:48.199 --> 02:03:53.319
I'm not sure i'd go exchange any
money without a title. Yeah,

1578
02:03:53.479 --> 02:03:56.359
how do you plan to do this
sale? Do you know how to do

1579
02:03:56.479 --> 02:03:59.920
it? Well, that's why I
called you, guys. I thought was

1580
02:04:00.159 --> 02:04:04.880
do I go to Do I go
to Bank of America that I oh with

1581
02:04:05.079 --> 02:04:09.319
the buyer and say, hey,
write a check to this bank, yes,

1582
02:04:09.479 --> 02:04:13.000
this bank put this towards that.
Or do I go to their bank

1583
02:04:13.159 --> 02:04:17.479
and say, hey I need First
of all, no one is going to

1584
02:04:17.760 --> 02:04:21.279
No one is going to give you
anything without the title. Even if you

1585
02:04:21.399 --> 02:04:26.239
go to your bank, no one's
going to do it. Listen, you

1586
02:04:26.319 --> 02:04:31.399
know what JFR can actually do just
the transaction. I don't know how much

1587
02:04:31.439 --> 02:04:35.119
he would charge to you, No, I don't. I hear it won't

1588
02:04:35.159 --> 02:04:38.840
be a lot, but I will
say this, you need a broker and

1589
02:04:39.000 --> 02:04:44.279
in between a half stealer. In
fact, lazy days. Would do they

1590
02:04:44.399 --> 02:04:46.439
do consignment? Do you know?
I don't know if they do, but

1591
02:04:46.560 --> 02:04:49.560
if he calls the one in Long
Mind, I'm sure they'll tell him.

1592
02:04:50.319 --> 02:04:54.560
You know, you might want to
consider even if you have a buyer,

1593
02:04:54.640 --> 02:04:58.560
you may want to consider a consignment. Now, consignment's more expensive than a

1594
02:04:58.640 --> 02:05:02.520
transaction broker. A transaction broker will
just handle all that. And here's how

1595
02:05:02.560 --> 02:05:06.359
they get around that. They do
a bill of sale with a with an

1596
02:05:06.479 --> 02:05:12.520
envelope draft, meaning that they deal
directly with the lender and the title work

1597
02:05:12.560 --> 02:05:15.840
and all of that. It's just
more difficult than you believe. When you

1598
02:05:15.960 --> 02:05:20.680
don't have title for something, it's
no one's going to trust you. And

1599
02:05:20.800 --> 02:05:24.800
if they do, they don't really
they're not really trusting you. They don't

1600
02:05:24.840 --> 02:05:27.720
they don't expect the RV anyway,
and they want to cheat you somehow,

1601
02:05:28.239 --> 02:05:30.359
and and you're gonna get all kinds
of things. They're going to offer to

1602
02:05:30.680 --> 02:05:34.359
give you a cashier's check of more
money, and then you they're going to

1603
02:05:34.479 --> 02:05:36.760
have a guy show up to ship
it, and he's going to want to

1604
02:05:36.800 --> 02:05:41.680
get paid. I'm telling you.
Whenever they're just remember this in general,

1605
02:05:41.960 --> 02:05:44.800
whenever they want to pay you and
you have to pay some money back.

1606
02:05:45.079 --> 02:05:48.800
It's a never no win ever ever
ever do it ever. All you want

1607
02:05:48.960 --> 02:05:56.199
are wired funds are checks deposited directly
from their bank. If they give you

1608
02:05:56.279 --> 02:05:59.479
a bank check, you go to
their bank and have it converted to a

1609
02:05:59.560 --> 02:06:04.119
cashier check immediately from their account and
then take it to your bank. That's

1610
02:06:04.119 --> 02:06:06.840
the only way to do it.
But you're not going to get them to

1611
02:06:06.920 --> 02:06:11.359
do it when you don't have the
title, So you're you're gonna have to

1612
02:06:11.439 --> 02:06:14.920
work that out with a dealer to
do a transaction, and then they're going

1613
02:06:15.000 --> 02:06:16.840
to try to sell you. It's
going to be a pain in the ass.

1614
02:06:16.960 --> 02:06:20.720
Okay, Now I don't I don't
really know, and I think it's

1615
02:06:20.720 --> 02:06:25.720
a good business. There might be
a business like this already that takes care

1616
02:06:25.760 --> 02:06:30.359
of the intermediary stuff for people because
most people don't know how to do it.

1617
02:06:30.000 --> 02:06:32.680
They don't know how to do it
now. They used to do it

1618
02:06:32.840 --> 02:06:38.199
on on what was that one mark
we used to that I forget the name

1619
02:06:38.199 --> 02:06:40.319
of it, THEA and then they
stopped doing it. It was Blinker,

1620
02:06:41.640 --> 02:06:45.600
It was Blinker, and they did
a great job, but then they stopped

1621
02:06:45.680 --> 02:06:48.359
doing it. They they were literally
doing it if you had the title three

1622
02:06:48.479 --> 02:07:03.560
h three ye bank eight two five
five High Time Wachl three seven seven one

1623
02:07:03.640 --> 02:07:10.399
three eight two five five Gene.
You want to know about a VW Touse

1624
02:07:11.039 --> 02:07:13.439
twenty twenty three or twenty four?
Guys, what do you think? Is

1625
02:07:13.479 --> 02:07:15.920
that what you're asking about? Are
you looking to buy one? Hi?

1626
02:07:16.039 --> 02:07:19.199
Tom? Yeah, That's exactly what
I was looking for, and I was

1627
02:07:19.279 --> 02:07:23.560
considering it, but I just don't
know much about them, and you don't

1628
02:07:23.560 --> 02:07:27.399
really see a lot on TV.
No. I personally my own deal.

1629
02:07:27.880 --> 02:07:31.279
I don't like Volkswagen, But guys, what do you guys think I'm not

1630
02:07:31.359 --> 02:07:34.399
a Volkswagen fan either to own one. I mean we work on and we

1631
02:07:34.479 --> 02:07:38.199
make a lot of money fixing all
the problems. Yeah, exactly. Yeah,

1632
02:07:38.319 --> 02:07:40.479
it's not a good It's not a
good one to own. Yeah,

1633
02:07:40.520 --> 02:07:43.159
I mean they rank up there when
it comes to some of the other European

1634
02:07:43.239 --> 02:07:46.800
models as far as the cost of
maintenance and the regularity of maintenance. I'm

1635
02:07:46.880 --> 02:07:49.439
trying to even look at their warranty. You guys know what it is in

1636
02:07:49.520 --> 02:07:53.319
that category? What would what do
you like about it? By the way,

1637
02:07:53.359 --> 02:07:55.600
do you just like the way it
looks Is that why you're looking at

1638
02:07:55.640 --> 02:08:00.760
it looking? Yes, that's exactly
what I was looking at, just their

1639
02:08:00.880 --> 02:08:07.000
their looks. And we've looked at
Huai's and Kias, and I mean,

1640
02:08:07.279 --> 02:08:09.079
you'd be better off for the for
the size of what you're looking at,

1641
02:08:09.479 --> 02:08:13.880
the price, and like they mentioned
warranties. I mean, the Kia Sultos

1642
02:08:13.960 --> 02:08:18.840
is probably a better buy. Okay, Kia would be a whole bunch better.

1643
02:08:20.079 --> 02:08:24.199
Okay, Well, the warranty,
the service is included for three years.

1644
02:08:24.439 --> 02:08:26.479
I mean, there's just so much
you leave on the table when you

1645
02:08:26.560 --> 02:08:33.199
buy a VW or the ConA.
Don't you think the Hyundai ConA looks kind

1646
02:08:33.199 --> 02:08:35.159
of cool? Mark? Yeah,
this thing's really the size of a ConA.

1647
02:08:35.199 --> 02:08:41.399
Basically, I thought I have been
seeing better looking Kias lately, But

1648
02:08:41.960 --> 02:08:46.119
you know they're both artsy. They're
equal companies, aren't they. Yeah.

1649
02:08:46.239 --> 02:08:50.359
I don't like that new Santa Fe
though. Man, you're you're forced into

1650
02:08:50.399 --> 02:08:56.079
buy in three rows now, so
the Tucson would be the Santa Fe.

1651
02:08:56.359 --> 02:09:01.760
I guess Okay, Well you got
some experts opinions. Thanks, Jane.

1652
02:09:01.840 --> 02:09:05.520
I wish you the best, and
you may want to check out a broker,

1653
02:09:07.720 --> 02:09:11.079
you know, Jaffar Cars. Talk
to Rodney Rodney specifically, just ask

1654
02:09:11.199 --> 02:09:15.079
him what he can do, get
a bid from him. It doesn't cost

1655
02:09:15.159 --> 02:09:18.319
you anything, and then you can
go try to beat the deal if you

1656
02:09:18.399 --> 02:09:24.880
want. But most of the time
Jacobs brought up Rodney or rod WHI JFR

1657
02:09:24.079 --> 02:09:28.560
actually did say one time, they
do they they'll do all that paperwork.

1658
02:09:28.560 --> 02:09:31.880
It's five hundred bucks. I remember
that. Oh they'll process a deal.

1659
02:09:31.039 --> 02:09:35.880
Yeah, they'll process It was five
or six hundred dollars. Yeah, cool,

1660
02:09:35.239 --> 02:09:41.159
All right, Don, what's going
on? Don? Hey, yeah,

1661
02:09:41.399 --> 02:09:45.399
we're looking at the refinancing our home
and just someone to get opinion on

1662
02:09:45.840 --> 02:09:50.800
something like Rocket mortgage for instance.
They're gone, Okay, they're an aggregator,

1663
02:09:50.840 --> 02:09:52.840
they're not a lender. So tell
me why you would go with them.

1664
02:09:56.960 --> 02:10:01.079
What I was looking up it sounded
like they could process things quicker.

1665
02:10:01.199 --> 02:10:05.439
And they head, well, okay, do you know what an aggregator is?

1666
02:10:07.680 --> 02:10:11.239
No, I do not. They
go online and they get you to

1667
02:10:11.399 --> 02:10:18.359
sign up and then then they find
somebody to mortgage your home. Yeah.

1668
02:10:18.520 --> 02:10:22.319
So Suzanne and I filled out their
information, like I don't know, ten

1669
02:10:22.439 --> 02:10:26.239
years ago, when they first came
out, we had so many phone calls

1670
02:10:26.720 --> 02:10:30.600
within the next two weeks. I
want to do. They're not a lender.

1671
02:10:30.680 --> 02:10:33.880
You're not dealing with a lender.
You're dealing with air. See.

1672
02:10:33.279 --> 02:10:39.079
Look, you know, lead aggregators
are fine, but they're not your company.

1673
02:10:39.159 --> 02:10:41.560
You don't know who you're gonna end
up with, you know what I

1674
02:10:41.720 --> 02:10:46.840
do. Honestly, look look at
Ideal. They're on our referral list.

1682
02:11:18.439 --> 02:11:20.840
It could be less than that.

Okay, I got a twenty eighteen
Toyota Highlander. Yesterday the uh,

1703
02:12:52.640 --> 02:12:56.399
the check engine light came on check
all wheel drive systems. That happened about

1704
02:12:56.399 --> 02:13:01.880
a year ago coming down from the
canyon. Uh, from a veil pass.

1705
02:13:03.439 --> 02:13:07.079
Traffic was really slow. It went
off, nothing ever happened. Uh,

1706
02:13:07.359 --> 02:13:11.439
so it came on again yesterday.
Obviously, need to get it checked

1707
02:13:11.840 --> 02:13:16.800
out. Can gimmeer transmission? Do
that? And can I drive it until

1708
02:13:16.840 --> 02:13:18.960
I can get it in next week? Yeah, you should be okay driving

1709
02:13:20.000 --> 02:13:22.960
it to mean, if anything's acting
abnormally, then obviously I would limit or

1710
02:13:24.039 --> 02:13:26.640
cease driving. But yeah, give
me a shout when we get back to

1711
02:13:26.720 --> 02:13:30.000
the shop. You know, I'll
be back there about two thirty uh three

1712
02:13:30.039 --> 02:13:31.840
O three six nine three fourteen,
and I can get you in the books

and get you in Kevin, give
your info out too, man. Yeah,

1714
02:13:35.840 --> 02:13:37.960
three three four five five seven two
four to two. And we send

1715
02:13:39.000 --> 02:13:41.760
all our transmissions to Jeff. One
is Transmissions Denver dot com. The other

1716
02:13:41.800 --> 02:13:46.720
one is shared in autotech dot com
today. But okay, guys, on

1717
02:13:46.920 --> 02:13:50.439
this topic, when should you not
never drive your car to the shop,

1718
02:13:52.399 --> 02:13:56.479
Well, if it's overheating. Okay, next, what about the oil light?

1719
02:13:56.119 --> 02:14:00.159
Yeah yeah, oil light on check
ins, in light flashing, I

1720
02:14:00.239 --> 02:14:03.640
mean, take your pick, shut
it down, extreme noises, you know

1721
02:14:03.760 --> 02:14:05.359
it went in doubt. Just get
a toe. It's most likely going to

1722
02:14:05.399 --> 02:14:09.960
be cheaper. Nobody wants to pay
for that toe. But the extra damage

1723
02:14:09.000 --> 02:14:11.399
you can do to your car trying
to get it in can cost you a

1724
02:14:11.520 --> 02:14:15.640
lot more than that tot. Do
most of the newer cars have a limp

1725
02:14:15.720 --> 02:14:18.399
mode to where they'll just kind of
let you know, they're saying different fashions.

1726
02:14:18.439 --> 02:14:22.119
They can reduce power, they can
they can eliminate gears that can do

1727
02:14:22.199 --> 02:14:26.600
a lot of different things. But
you got okay, I have a question.

1728
02:14:26.760 --> 02:14:30.680
Then, do most newer cars,
the really newer ones, let's say

1729
02:14:30.760 --> 02:14:33.239
twenty two, you know, real
new, do they have limp modes in

1730
02:14:33.399 --> 02:14:37.600
everything that'll hurt the car? Or
can you not depend on that? You

1731
02:14:37.720 --> 02:14:41.359
can't depend on it. No,
you have to be practical, you know.

1732
02:14:41.560 --> 02:14:45.199
Just and here's another thing. I
have this weird personality that says,

1733
02:14:45.319 --> 02:14:48.239
do it, do it, do
it. This is crazy and okay I'm

1734
02:14:48.279 --> 02:14:54.359
revealing my insanity, but I want
to know. Do most transfusions nowadays have

1735
02:14:54.520 --> 02:15:01.439
safeguards built in if you're driving and
you shift it into park, yes or

1736
02:15:01.520 --> 02:15:05.560
reverse, Yes, most of them
do. However, any mechanical device is

1737
02:15:05.600 --> 02:15:07.359
prone to failure just by definition of
the words. Who do not test it?

1738
02:15:09.199 --> 02:15:11.039
Okay, I'm going to tell you
something. I'm going down an alley

1739
02:15:11.159 --> 02:15:16.600
and I think to myself, I
wonder if these cars are really engineered.

1740
02:15:16.640 --> 02:15:18.600
Well, I swear to god,
I did it. I don't know why.

1741
02:15:18.680 --> 02:15:22.880
I'm crazy. So I was driving
down the alley nice and slow and

1742
02:15:22.039 --> 02:15:26.000
I shifted it into reverse and it
wouldn't do anything. It just it just

1743
02:15:26.119 --> 02:15:30.600
flashed and kept going straight. Thank
goodness. Do you have Do you have

1744
02:15:30.760 --> 02:15:33.520
that dial thing like I do?
How do you shift? How do you

1745
02:15:33.640 --> 02:15:37.199
go from like neutral to drive and
reverse on your car? Oh? You

1746
02:15:37.359 --> 02:15:41.359
press it's electric switcher. It looks
like a shift ours it mon's like that.

1747
02:15:41.680 --> 02:15:43.960
We have. It looks like a
shift on the console, but it

1748
02:15:45.039 --> 02:15:46.960
doesn't shift. You press a button
and they hit it. Yeah, you

1749
02:15:48.079 --> 02:15:50.960
know what. Ours? Our new
one has that, But our Genesis has

1750
02:15:50.039 --> 02:15:54.319
a dial. But all the dial
is is basically just a button. Yeah.

1751
02:15:54.760 --> 02:15:58.119
Well, it looks at speed,
sensors everything else. So there's no

1752
02:15:58.279 --> 02:16:01.199
linkage. Or anything anymore. No, it's all like and by the way,

1753
02:16:01.439 --> 02:16:03.039
do not do what I did.
Please, I gotta put out that

1754
02:16:03.159 --> 02:16:07.920
disclaimer. I do not want to
get people pissed at me. I don't

1755
02:16:07.960 --> 02:16:11.840
know why I did it. I
won't do it again anyway. We're out
