| 0:05.7 | Lyon Credit Union is currently offering 4.5% for a three-month certificate, 4.75% for a six-month |
| 0:15.2 | certificate. But best of all, in my opinion, is 5% for a one-year certificate of deposit. |

| 1:01.6 | Do you like that theme song? I do. I love listening to it kind of makes me happy every time I hear it. |
| 1:14.3 | That's by Fee by the way. Together we will rise and you can get it on Spotify. But the words are |
| 1:21.2 | interesting today because I'm hearing them in a different kind of different mindset. And the mindset |
| 1:29.0 | is while it's true together we will rise. It's also true that sometimes you just have to do it |

| 2:57.2 | all the time. It's like now it's eight, nine o'clock at night. And I don't feel well. And I broke my |
