Speaker 1: the top partner.
Speaker 3: It just costed, Jeff, I have something for you before
Speaker 3: we dive in here with some of these listener questions,
Speaker 3: I know you will appreciate this headline this out of Taiwan,
Speaker 3: twenty year old man takes own mother to court for
Speaker 3: throwing away his comic collection. The sixty four year old
Speaker 3: woman from chai Chi City landed in hot water after
Speaker 3: throwing away her son's thirty two volume Attack on Titan collection.
Speaker 1: Yeah, thirty one volumes. I wonder how many actual books
Speaker 1: that is.
Speaker 3: Said that some of them are. I don't know what
Speaker 3: Attack on Titan is or any of that, but some
Speaker 3: of the volumes are no longer in print and can
Speaker 3: be considered collector's items.
Speaker 1: Well, most of those books aren't in print anymore.
Speaker 3: Mom argued that some of the volumes were damp and
Speaker 3: they were taking up so much room, so throwing them
Speaker 3: away out of her home was justified. However, Yeah, she
Speaker 3: expressed desire to reconcile your son, but he was unwilling
Speaker 3: to talk to her. He still took her to court,
Speaker 3: where the judge found for the sun in the amount
Speaker 3: of five thousand Taiwanese dollars, which is about one hundred
Speaker 3: and sixty bucks.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you feel horrible suing your mom for that? I
Speaker 1: think the judge gave her one hundred and sixty bucks
Speaker 1: because he was like, stop it gave then he guys, listen,
Speaker 1: it's one hundred and sixty dollars, you know, just to
Speaker 1: stick it in his eye. Oh, this is so collectible.
Speaker 1: One hundred and sixty bucks. I never sounds like so
Speaker 1: much more. It's abandonment when you leave product like that.
Speaker 1: It's like when you leave stuff at your roommate's place
Speaker 1: or somebody else has and you leave for a period
Speaker 1: of time. It's an abandonment. He was living with her,
Speaker 1: It was her place mate, she who owned the house.
Speaker 1: She seems like sixty one. It was her place, you
Speaker 1: know what. Promptly kick his little ass out when you
Speaker 1: get back home.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Good, here's one hundred and sixty bucks. Go move out. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I never told Kaufman this story about my grandpa. You
Speaker 2: know Tales from the Crypt. Yeah, my grandpa was a
Speaker 2: lawyer and rented a few places out to tenants. One
Speaker 2: of them was the person who wrote Tales for the Crypt,
Speaker 2: and my dad and uncle were cleaning out the house
Speaker 2: and the h and the basement and everything, boxes of
Speaker 2: original and drawings and stuff, and didn't keep it.
Speaker 1: Well, drawings are serious, I know now, the original books themselves.
Speaker 1: You know, through a lot of people when they have
Speaker 1: old comic books, they always think, oh I got I
Speaker 1: got money, unless they are really first appearances of a
Speaker 1: character or first editions. I mean we're talking like good ones.
Speaker 1: They were the crypt Keeper and stuff like that. I'm
Speaker 1: just telling you crypt it doesn't hold, you know, like
Speaker 1: spider Man, hole Batman, whole Tales from the Crypt. Not
Speaker 1: someone really, but the original artwork, yes.
Speaker 3: The twin story on him. He might be impressed by that.
Speaker 3: What's their original artwork? That stuff? But I'll make It'll
Speaker 3: make my dad feel better that they threw it out.
Speaker 3: Oh the twinkies, yeah, I know the guy who are
Speaker 3: you sure you know what that word means?
Speaker 4: What twinkies?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, my father is another term for that's
Speaker 2: other than the cake product. I'm talking about some kind
Speaker 2: of kinky twinkie. I'm talking about the little hostess twinkie things. Yeah,
Speaker 2: his zombies. What are the neighbors or a tenant? George Coshati.
Speaker 2: Remember Pat invented the filling for twins? Didn't you find
Speaker 2: that out? Wasn't exactly the case. I think it might
Speaker 2: have been ding dogs or something else. The things I know,
Speaker 2: there's another meaning for anything from Sarah Lee. He was
Speaker 2: the dude, all right, and he's co opted the story.
Speaker 2: Though it's not for years. It's it's always a fun
Speaker 2: one to changes.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 1: They went from twinkies to double dogs, right. You should
Speaker 1: tell I was a big kid. I knew all those.
Speaker 2: If I have nothing to leave anyone but debt, should
Speaker 2: I still have a will?
Speaker 3: No money?
Speaker 1: No, absolutely, because you have general items that your family's
Speaker 1: going to come out of the woodwork and want. They're
Speaker 1: gonna want little pieces of jewelry and your microwave and
Speaker 1: your refrigerator and stupid things like that. So if you
Speaker 1: do not take care of it. In fact, there's a
Speaker 1: free will on my website. Free that means we don't
Speaker 1: charge you. There's a video. All you have to just
Speaker 1: fill it out fall the instructions. Just give your general
Speaker 1: possessions away to a specific person. You know, don't don't
Speaker 1: screw around because people are going to come in your house.
Speaker 1: It's going to be like an invading ants. Trust me
Speaker 1: on this way.
Speaker 3: It just prevents anything from getting locked up and locked
Speaker 3: up in court. There's nothing long.
Speaker 1: He has less than three nobody's paying three thousand dollars
Speaker 1: for the estate. But you will have relatives, hate each other,
Speaker 1: your children, your axes, whatever. Just do the right thing.
Speaker 1: It takes a whopping twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: Man, we've all seen it. Yep, tails from the cript stuff.
Speaker 2: Think about that? Would a fight that would have been
Speaker 2: now if they're still around.
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Is it discrimination of a company if they try or
Speaker 2: if a company, sorry, tries to pass a no tattoo policy.
Speaker 2: When I was hired three years ago, I was asked
Speaker 2: if I needed to cover my I asked if I
Speaker 2: needed to cover my tattoos. They said no, it was fine.
Speaker 2: Now they're trying to make a no tattoo policy.
Speaker 1: Okay. Discrimination is based on a couple of things, and
Speaker 1: tattoos are not one of them. And they're classes, and
Speaker 1: having a tattoo is not a protected class. Classes are
Speaker 1: like being black Jewish from Ecuador, things like that. You're
Speaker 1: not protected because you have tattoos. Uh. The issue is
Speaker 1: always going to be this. You're in the state of Florida.
Speaker 1: It's a right to work state. They can dump you
Speaker 1: whenever they want to. They don't need cause they can say, listen,
Speaker 1: we just don't like your face. As long as they
Speaker 1: say we don't like your brown face, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm trying to tell you. Oh yeah, if they say that,
Speaker 1: or even gay or exactly, sexual orientation is protected now
Speaker 1: or a constitution, or straight for that matter, you're too straight,
Speaker 1: Well that's sexual orientation, I know. Well, what if somebody
Speaker 1: shoots themselves? Wow? Hold on, wow, we got dark fast.
Speaker 1: But from tattoos to suicide?
Speaker 2: No, no, no, mistakenly shot himself, not suicide, just hear
Speaker 2: it out, mistakenly. What if somebody shoots himself then runs
Speaker 2: through your property and does damage to your property? Can
Speaker 2: you get his insurance to pay for the damages to
Speaker 2: the property he ended up?
Speaker 1: Well, his homeowners insurance only applies to his property. So
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what insurance are you talking about?
Speaker 1: I think when they do damage. Now, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: When people say, well, it was a murdery situation. That's
Speaker 1: why I had to go on your property. Yes, you
Speaker 1: will not be arrested for illegal trespassing as far as
Speaker 1: a crime goes, but you can be held responsible for
Speaker 1: any damages you cause. So he's dead now, well i'm
Speaker 1: talking about his You know, he might have an estate,
Speaker 1: he might have stuff, but very rarely does an insurance
Speaker 1: policy cover you outside your car unless he drove his
Speaker 1: car through you know, his way.
Speaker 4: So you might get the microwad that you spoke about
Speaker 4: with the last one.
Speaker 1: Well, he's not paying three thousand dollars to get a microwaid.
Speaker 1: It's a twelve hundred want one flamethrower, the one that
Speaker 1: doesn't mike popcorn de frosts. There's a covered parking for
Speaker 1: some people and not for others. Oh, they so hate you,
Speaker 1: they just hate you. Some park under trees for shade.
Speaker 1: Don't do that.
Speaker 2: Berries work said, Oh yeah, that's the that's the bird
Speaker 2: and camphor burries. To get drunk off those and then
Speaker 2: kill your paint.
Speaker 1: And it's.
Speaker 2: Work said, if a branch falls on it, it's not
Speaker 2: their fault, even though it's on their property.
Speaker 1: Is it their fault? Well, you have active god issues.
Speaker 1: If the if the tree is dead and you know
Speaker 1: it's dead, but if the branch just falls for the
Speaker 1: hell of it, that's that's that's an act of God.
Speaker 1: But you know, don't park under trees. I know the
Speaker 1: idea you want you you want to keep your car
Speaker 1: cool and everything else. Get advisor. Just thinking about it.
Speaker 4: Okay, Jeff, I know you know entertainment.
Speaker 1: Sure, let's do this.
Speaker 2: So it says, mister Kaufman, have you heard of the
Speaker 2: Phoenix Right Ace Attorney series? If so, do you think
Speaker 2: it's events would fly in.
Speaker 4: A real courtroom?
Speaker 1: As hell?
Speaker 3: Is this?
Speaker 4: It's like a TV show or something. I guess.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, let me explain what reality television is.
Speaker 1: It isn't reality. What they do is they be I've
Speaker 1: been on these sets. They actually tried to shoot a
Speaker 1: show about our firm a long time ago. They walk
Speaker 1: in your office and they say, hey, we're starting the
Speaker 1: day to day. You got anybody you're mad at right now?
Speaker 1: And then you got anybody you can yell at, and
Speaker 1: you're going, well, yeah, my it. Guy screwed a brain
Speaker 1: in and then you put on this thing and it
Speaker 1: is the exact opposite. And if you ever want to
Speaker 1: think about reality television, go watch till the end where
Speaker 1: they show the credits and see how many scriptwriters are
Speaker 1: on the reality TV show. So why do you need
Speaker 1: scriptwriters if it's reality.
Speaker 2: See look that's what this one is. It's like a cartoon,
Speaker 2: comic cartoon kind of thing. Yeah, yeah, no, don't trust us. Also,
Speaker 2: every state is different. A lot of times they give
Speaker 2: you the law and at the end of it it says,
Speaker 2: do not trust us. Go to go talk, get legal advice,
Speaker 2: and that's what that's what you should do.
Speaker 1: I mean a situation like this where TV and don't
Speaker 1: trust TV unless it is my cousin Vidian, which was
Speaker 1: a fantastic movie and it really was applicable to the law.
Speaker 4: That was a hell of a movie. I'll give you that.
Speaker 2: We have time for another, right pattern, Yeah, squeeze another one.
Speaker 2: I got a question for Kaufman. How can I set
Speaker 2: up my home and possessions to go to my kid
Speaker 2: without the government getting their cut? The government like the
Speaker 2: the website just you know, the government doesn't get it's
Speaker 2: cut unless you owe them money or you're putting away
Speaker 2: like a couple million. I mean the fact that I
Speaker 2: think that I forgot what the limit is. It's around
Speaker 2: five to nine. Now go online.
Speaker 1: See that what you can pass without estate taxes? You
Speaker 1: don't maybe you do have five to eight million dollars.
Speaker 1: If you have blow that you should be fine. I
Speaker 1: think it's five and I can look up to like sixteen.
Speaker 1: Case Attorney is a game, not a show. Sorry, Okay,
Speaker 1: if I if I actually saw it, I would get
Speaker 1: you cried out of just reading the text.
Speaker 4: They just knew, they just knew that you you know
Speaker 4: you're seting no idea.
