Depending on who you are spending your money with, you could be sending your money indirectly to some of the people you really don't want to be sending your money too. So, for example, if you're still a customer of Verizon or AT&T or T-Mobile, |
| 0:39.6 | you're choosing to support the candidates that they |
| 0:41.7 | support, which would mean like Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and company. But here is a solution, |
| 0:46.3 | Pure Talk. See, Pure Talk, as I've talked about, uses the exact same tower, same 5G network |

So yes, this is a monthly bill. You can be proud to pay. Plus, you're going to be paying a lot less on that bill than you would normally with one of those big cell phone coverage providers.

| 1:39.8 | Polyhapatia. So forgive me if I screwed up the name. And he was doing a podcast. And I have to say, |
| 1:46.3 | one of the most amazing things about people who are extraordinarily wealthy is that very often |
| 1:51.3 | they really think they know things they do not know. There's a famous line from Fiddler on the roof. |
