I saved money for a

16:56

really long time as and

16:58

got very lucky in scenes

17:00

and I read a lot

17:02

of circumstances have come together

17:04

for. Circle. Of

17:07

I mean I don't own the house,

17:09

the bank owns the house. Break it

17:11

from me. Ah, but as of right

17:13

now, I own the house and pay

17:15

a monthly mortgage. But you know, I

17:17

started. Working. When I was

17:19

about fifteen and never sent money

17:21

on anything ever as and became

17:23

of television writer by a lot

17:25

of lock Story pray and ah

17:27

that and twenty Twenty right before

17:29

it became impossible to buy a

17:31

house. Did you buy it before the bubble?

17:34

Before how the of

17:36

can you imagine? I

17:38

bought it I sued not have been

17:40

able to that that the house the

17:42

old me double mortgages so that's because

17:44

my credit was not the had. Sure

17:46

sure gave me one mortgage

17:49

on. One other ones that

17:51

was like a credit card situations. I

17:53

could not afford that markets. but ah,

17:55

it was like thirty eight hundred dollars

17:57

a month. point of that plan. I

17:59

was like. I'm going to make

18:01

this. And it weirdly

18:03

like a drug dealer. It. Does

18:05

sometimes works out in show business. That you

18:07

get you win the lottery and so. It

18:09

was all right but ah oh I love

in three weeks every bought it people.

18:22

Beyond. Far more successful than

18:24

I am. couldn't buy a house

18:26

and like of costs. I guess

18:28

I got lucky once it works

18:30

out. Yeah, and. I mean

18:32

as everything and will stare into holds

18:35

a limited space like is it good

18:37

18:39

things turn on a dime. oh yes

18:42

that's my job as a sense to

18:44

Happy you. It has nothing.

28:31

To do with your job. But.

28:34

28:38

it is to do is send that message

28:40

out of like. Relax.

28:44

I really appreciate that, as is a

28:46

strange time, especially in Los Angeles because

28:48

every set, the entire entertainment industry seems

28:50

to be collapsing. So it's it is

28:53

kind of of fraud, scary time and

28:55

life for it when you could frequently

28:57

feel like oh, I'm

28:59

doing something wrong. Oh there's

29:01

always a mean least every

29:03

person ever talk to who

29:05

does well. As the Chris

29:07

there's cel of something like I

29:10

really enjoy. It was a singular

29:12

I didn't know that. Would

29:14

you like to share My heart? Nuts? And

29:18

first class gotten us of

29:20

only read another couple times.

29:22

But it's a hot Not. is

29:25

it a mixer Phoenix or Mexico

29:27

Hot? Nuts to put a

29:29

tablecloth down. Any with everybody

29:32

is scared and I wanna

29:34

say let's have some empathy

29:36

for the oligarchs. Have you

29:38

ever heard sometimes extremely wealthy

29:41

people? I've heard them worry

29:43

allowed about money which is

29:45

so confusing. Is

29:47

it so? I don't think it goes away once you

29:50

have a shit ton of money? I don't think that's

29:52

the answer. I'm I've heard.

29:54

A person say to me to my face.

29:57

we wanted to give to publicly.

30:00

Yoda here. but we've got the

30:02

girls and private school and then

30:04

we've got the kitchen being read

30:06

done on the home and Italy's.

30:08

Oh. I can't listen to any more of

30:11

this romance novel until there's been a

30:13

murder because I don't care about any

30:15

these characters. Ah I

30:17

had some dear friends as he do

30:19

since his unless Angeles ah of and

30:21

you'll have some friends who sued off

30:24

like rocket Ship is easy and to

30:26

stardom. So. These.

30:29

Friends were living in a

30:31

black obelisk above the sea.

30:35

And. I. Thought everything was

30:37

going great as you do from instagram.

30:39

Real C and. D

30:41

Show up on my front door. And.

30:44

Said we've lost everything. The surface

30:46

lock to sell of our house

30:48

and all Brickhouse can we stay

30:50

with you want thirds your the

30:52

time being and I said of

30:54

course c'mon ends are healthy. Scepticism:

30:56

Old Seguin Peters is covered and

30:58

beans and corn and is damp

31:00

with the rougle us I didn't

31:02

want it when I ordered it.

31:07

I think sit to happen at any

31:09

level where it's like you just suck

31:11

up and you know So I just

31:14

don't think having more is the things

31:16

that that that's gonna bring people peace

31:18

innocently hasn't been the case. Ah,

31:21

like I used to live in a hippie cooperatives

31:23

and. Sure

31:26

that great hims know but I

31:28

drew Thompson and ball. A

31:31

made ten dollars a day busking

31:33

for change while playing a musical

31:36

instrument poorly. On

31:38

the streets in Minneapolis. The violin

31:40

I was thirty size. I mostly

31:42

tried to play in parking structures.

31:46

Walk. At.

31:49

One point I was a year late

31:51

and my rent a synthesis the hippies

31:53

had to sit me down. Goes this.

31:55

Man Seriously. I

32:00

do not have any idea what

32:03

I'm doing. I'm

32:05

an artist. But as as happy

32:07

dance and happiness like I just. I

32:10

think health care and a shelter and

32:12

food of course add to your level

32:14

of happiness but beyond a certain point

32:16

it doesn't seem to said I'd be

32:18

to determine due to poor very wealthy.

32:21

Suits. Anxiety and so

32:24

forth about money. like not generous, weird

32:26

about their cars. My husband when I

32:28

mean things I love The bottom was

32:30

that he showed up in his car

32:32

which was a Subaru. Know what was

32:35

it? Center. Saturn

32:37

crushed. A bet on of

32:39

on the side. I said, you own

32:42

it out, right? He said yes, I do. Have

32:46

ah! Off

32:48

He also knew what was going

32:50

on with his finances. the he's

32:52

like I am Ah, as it

32:55

was almost sixty thousand dollars in

32:57

debt. That's what I have and

32:59

sometimes I can only eat a

33:01

lot. And saw him could get

33:03

kind of irritable. ah as he did. He just

33:05

isn't it. It didn't have one of. Money

33:07

and I'm white rice that. N.

33:10

N hit a good lights like it.

33:13

he knew what was happening. Like some

33:15

people with money, they're all like. Maria,

33:18

it's worries or yeah,

33:20

just. Having will ever know I'm

33:22

just going off. Now but as wouldn't

33:24

have they were going off. I guess it

33:26

is. I doubt.

33:29

That. It brings people's happiness and right in the long

33:31

run. Yeah. I think that's

33:33

largely true. Like there's a base level

33:36

of security that's nice to have. like

33:38

with knowing you can see a doctor

33:40

like kind of the and it's a

33:42

shame that not everybody can do that

33:44

are beyond that. He starts. it's a

33:46

never ending void obviously. Yeah, I

33:49

mean I don't know. I'm also

33:51

could be wrong. ah i. Don't

33:53

think you're reform minded as yeah, I

33:55

know a lot of people that are

33:57

supremely rich, and they're still completely dissatisfied

33:59

with their. Resign and will

34:01

mean up for and my.

34:04

Why? It doesn't really help.

34:07

34:09

34:11

point. As you know, I'm not good at backing

54:21

up the car. Okay, makes me nervous, but once

54:23

you've done at the sense of accomplishment is unbelievable.

54:25

Death as then when you come out you get

54:27

to just pull away and there's no. I mean

54:29

I guess there is. At some point you're gonna

54:32

be backing the car up as soon as it

54:34

seems fitting. Men do more than when right side.

54:36

Sometimes I feel like it's like a show off

54:38

Missouri. Feels like you're of can afford. Maybe he'll

54:40

get asked her. What

54:42

To do? Something super cool? But

54:46

ultimately, it's very convenient. And

54:49
