Hello, Smart Money Tree Podcasts listeners. Welcome to this week's show.

My name is Kirk Chisholm. I will be your host. And today I'm joined with my good friend Phil Weiss.

Hey, Phil.

Hey, Kirk, how are you today?

Doing well. Happy to have you with us here in this Monday before

Thanksgiving. You got any plans? We have a big family thing. We'll be going up to New Jersey where my

wife's family is from. Nice. Yeah, I'm staying local here. I like to not travel on the busiest travel

day of the year. I don't want to contribute to the congestion and all the confusion. Just want to let everybody know. I'm mindful of everybody else's feelings that I don't want to

travel and make it worse, mostly for myself. But that's okay. You guys benefit to.

Well, we'll leave on Thursday morning. It's like a three-hour drive and we'll get there

and not hit traffic that way. So we'll avoid the rush. That's a good idea. My kids get out,

one gets out Tuesday, one gets out Wednesday. I like the Tuesday idea. You can leave extra,

extra early. One more day with family is always a good thing, right? Absolutely. My son that is

working in Seattle came home on Saturday, and he's going to be here for two weeks. So it was

really nice at the dinner table last night the first time since he left. We had all six of us sitting at

the table together. It's always a nice thing. That's awesome. My kids are still forced to sit at the

dinner table with us. We'll see if they stick around after when they have a choice. But right now,

they're there. Yeah, I feel privileged that they still come yeah they only

want to stick around for 10 minutes i want to eat and leave and i'm like come on thanksgiving

just sit there and talk to us for a few minutes oh boy good age at least you're driving into
