Hello and welcome to the Stansberry Investor Hour podcast. I'm your host, Dan Ferris.

I'm also the editor of Extreme Value, a value investing newsletter published by Stansberry

research. All right, let's do it. Time for the weekly rant. Okay. Now this week, I want to talk a

little bit about Father's Day, which is coming up. Not the day, really, just the man. My father,

Martin Ferris III, was born in 1925 in Baltimore, and he's still going strong. He'll be 94 in October.

I went up to the Split Rock Resort and the Poconos in Pennsylvania to celebrate my parents' 70th wedding anniversary. 70th. 70th. They honeymooned up there at Split Rock in 1949. The old Split Rock, she ain't what she used to be,

but that's off topic. We'll talk about that some other time maybe. But, you know, it was really

great to see them. And I just felt like relating a quick anecdote or two about dear old dad,

because I know I was impressed by the anecdote that I'm about to relate.

So my father's a lawyer and for the last couple decades of his career, he served as a

hearing officer, also referred to as an administrative judge for unemployment cases in the

state of Maryland. And I was born and raised in Maryland. And my father was born and raised

there, lived his whole life, still lives there. So many, many years ago when I was much younger than

today, I was waiting tables. And my car was, and I was living with my folks, which I did, you know,

three or four times off and on in my 20s. And I lived my folks at that time. So my father was kind enough to shuttle me back and forth a few times to work whenever it was too inconvenient to borrow the car.

And one night he's driving me home.
