Summary

On today’s episode, the guys tackle the touchy topic of money. There are a lot of ways to view your money, but this episode outlines three. 1) Capitalist - my money is mine to handle how I see fit. 2) Socialist - my money is the state’s to be distributed how they see fit. 3) Biblical - my money is God’s for me to steward how he sees fit.

there are three ways I think that we can look at money. There's the way of capitalism,

0:05.6

which says that my money is my own. I earned it and I do what I want with it. And if I want to be

0:11.8

generous, then I'm a generous person. That's the capitalistic way of looking at money. There's

0:17.1

the socialist way of looking at money, which is my money belongs to the state and they will distribute

0:23.1

it, redistribute it as they see fit. But then the Christian biblical way of looking at money

0:28.5

1:09.9

may say. No, it might hurt laughs. She didn't get offended. I don't know if she laughed at that moment.

1:18.1

And yeah, she's a very patient woman. Yep. What was, oh, that's right. On Valentine's Day,

1:40.5

our first Valentine's Day, our new relationship, we hadn't kissed and I gave her a card.

1:45.6

Last year, right? Last week. Yesterday, I said, I said, I'm going to give you a big kiss in the

1:52.0

card. I had two kids that were kind of leaning over a puddle about to kiss and I lean in and she

1:57.6

leans in and then I bring a big Hershey kiss and put it right between us. Did you really? Yeah.

2:02.2

We kept that for years too until started turning like white and rotten. And they ate it. Yeah.

2:08.6

Speaking of that, when people do with poor couples, tell them to put that top chair of the cake

2:12.5

in their freezer for a year and then eat it on their anniversary. Who thought that up, right?

2:18.7

Yeah. Someone wanted to kill the couple. Speaking of cakes, just like taking a moment to thank
