| 0:00.0 | The CARES Act, let's talk about how to maximize the money that's hopefully going to be working its way into the population. |
| 0:07.0 | Yeah, Brian, so a few days ago we actually went through the legislation, explained what it was, |
| 0:11.0 | the different provisions, how it hit individuals, how it hit businesses. |
| 0:15.0 | And this one I think is the one that we get excited about. |
| 0:17.0 | Because once you see legislation, you have to kind of digest and say, okay, what is it, how does it work, you know, what does it mean? |
| 0:24.0 | Well, then we got to put on our thinking caps and fear. |
| 0:26.0 | Okay, what are the planning opportunities? How can we share some information with the money guy family to help them take advantage of some of the legislative changes that have taken place? |
| 0:36.0 | And what I think is so much, we came close to recording Tuesday afternoon because we already had some of the individual stuff. |
| 0:43.0 | But as I got to tell you, this is a fluid situation. A lot of things are changing nightly. |

| 1:22.0 | So those are kind of the six planning areas that we're going to talk through. |
| 1:25.0 | And so we're going to kind of talk about really quickly what the legislation said. |
| 1:29.0 | And then we're going to try to talk about some planning opportunities under each one of these that you can start implementing and thinking about. |
| 1:35.0 | So the first one, obviously this is the big one that was half a trillion dollars when you look at how much of the two trillion dollar plan it was is recovery rebates. |
| 1:45.0 | And this is realistically probably for a lot of people how the government is going to give you $3,400 tax free. |
| 1:53.0 | That's the question that everyone keeps asking me is, hey, am I going to get this free money? Where do I get this free money? |
| 1:58.0 | How do I get this? It's like people really want to know about free money. |
