00:07Sex is important for me.
00:08Oh, my God.
00:09Yes.
00:10Calm down over there.
00:11You're such a family person.
00:13I know.
00:13You could be a great mother.
00:16I do have a seven-year-old daughter.
00:18Are you feeling nervous or anxious about bringing two people into your life?
00:22Am I nervous?
00:22Yeah.
00:22But it feels like more of like a privilege.
00:25I've done like Ironmans.
00:26I like doing like triathlons.
00:27That is so attractive.
00:28I went to school at Michigan.
00:30That is the hottest thing I've heard all day.
00:32I hate Ohio State.
00:34She's intelligent, loyal.
00:35So kind and compassionate, empathetic.
00:39I don't want to be corny, not like that you were made for me.
00:41You could say that.
00:43I feel like we've had an amazing connection.
00:45But I just like want to focus on my other connection.
00:49I was actually going to have the same conversation with you.
00:51Stop it, Chris.
00:52You have that it factor.
00:55You stick out for me.
00:56So what you going to do, Kevin?
00:58I don't want to fucking let anybody down.
01:01You are not ready for a relationship.
01:04My grandfather passed away.
01:07I'm so sorry.
01:09I'm on one meet and I would love to know if you do the honor of being my wife.
01:13I would love to.
01:15Yes.
01:15I love you.
01:16I love you so much.
01:18Thank you for accepting me for me.
01:21Connor.
01:22Finally.
01:23Thinking about our future together, I know that the best is yet to come.
01:27Seeing you, it literally makes it like a thousand times better.
01:29It feels like we've known each other for such a long time.
01:32Definitely can get used to this.
01:34Amber.
01:35Definitely think love is blind.
01:36The next time that I do have sex, I want it to be with a person that I 100%
01:41we are going
01:42to spend the rest of our lives together.
01:44If I saw you in the wild, I would think that you would only want to be with like a
01:48gym rat.
01:48Being able to like swim in the morning, have a workout.
01:50Like I have to do that.
01:51I wish I felt that way.
01:53Brittany is the physical attributes that I find attractive.
01:55Still trying to figure out and gauge whether the physical matches the emotional.
01:58Have you expressed that to her at all?
02:01Obviously, I was super excited to see you.
02:05Never have I ever had a hickey.
02:06I can give you a first one.
02:08I don't want a hickey.
02:09I literally don't feel like we're even engaged.
02:11There's just a lot going on in my head right now.
02:14All this stuff with my family, adjusting back to life.
02:16So sorry.
02:17There's other things on my mind, too.
02:34He should have just gone home.
02:36What do you mean?
02:37He should have gone home after his grandpa died.
02:40You feel overwhelmed at the fact that you lost your grandpa.
02:42I know exactly how that feels.
02:44I just lost my grandma a year ago.
02:46This is my life, too.
02:48I'm talking about marrying you.
02:50And you're pissed off that I'm expressing my feelings.
02:54And he thinks that I'm just supposed to understand
02:57that it's okay for you to not talk to me for two days.
03:01That I'm just supposed to understand that.
03:04You should have just gone home.
03:07Brittany out here?
03:08Yes.
03:12You want to talk?
03:19Thank you, Mom.
03:30I feel like yesterday you validated me in me saying
03:34that I felt like we were disconnected.
03:37But had you said, like, I'm going through it
03:41and I don't feel like I can give you everything
03:43that I need to give you right now,
03:45just be patient with me,
03:49would have been different.
03:50Because I would be able to understand.
03:52I have vocalized that.
03:54That's why I've been understanding and giving you space.
03:59Well, I feel like you're not being understanding right now.
04:04I feel so alone.
04:07You can't even freaking talk to me
04:09when we have no other problems going on.
04:12There's so much once we have kids.
04:15That's a huge factor
04:16that's going to completely rock our world.
04:18I don't know how you feel about me.
04:20I know the things that you told me
04:23in the pod
04:23and I know the emotional connection that we built
04:26or else I wouldn't even be here.
04:29I wouldn't be here if I didn't believe in us.
04:31But I'm not going to sit here
04:33and feel like I'm not seen.
04:40I just don't feel like you're in a place
04:41where you're ready for everything that this entails.
04:45I think I am.
04:46This has just been a lot.
04:57I'm sorry.
04:58Like, you have felt this way.
05:05It's all new.
05:23It's not always like this.
05:28You know that?
05:35I hear you.
05:37I hear you.
05:47I'm bad.
05:52I'm bad.
05:59I'm with you to the end, to the end, to the end, to the end, to the end, to the
06:09end, to the end, to the end, to the end, what a time, what a time, what a time to
06:17be alive, we'll be back Cabo, don't you ever forget it, we sure will be, sadly leaving, excited to go
06:24home, last day, let's get to the airport, let's do it, roll it out,
06:29passenger princess, one suitcase, three suitcases, bye Cabo, our engaged couples, are returning home, from the romantic getaway, and they
06:42are about to enter, the most intense phase, of the experiment, that's right, living together, in the real world, hey
06:49ma, hey ma, I'm here with my fiance, hi, hi Victoria, so I got engaged,
06:59and I'm, what, how will they integrate, their lives, homes, careers, will they allow, modern distractions, or the opinions, of
07:06friends, and family, to sabotage them, I'm engaged, are you dying, oh, she is hung up,
07:15welcome to my home state, ohio, ohio, welcome home, everybody, here we go, here we go, it all started with
07:28love, a true emotional connection, oh my gosh,
07:32damn, damn, wait, this is so cute, what's the first order of business, cleanse the evil spirits,
07:40yeah, from me, yeah, I'm trying to like, save you, get all the demons out of you, get that out
07:45of here, now in just three weeks, they'll be at the altar, and make the most important decision, of their
07:50life,
07:51are you serious, you don't know how to use a can opener, oh my god, will they prove, that love,
07:57is blind,
08:02it's so wild, like, coming back here, all the shit that we had to do, all the things we need
08:07to figure
08:08out for work coming up, but like, what I appreciated about you is, you were like, hey look, like, I
08:13am stressed
08:13right now, but it's not about you, it's very easy for me to like, get in my head and spiral,
08:18if somebody
08:18seems upset or something, and the fact that, without prompting, you were like, I need you to know, like,
08:23this isn't you, that made me feel much safer, yeah, I just think it's important to know,
08:30or at least say how I'm feeling, rather than, the whole day goes by, and I don't, right, because I
08:33would have just been like, well, he fucking hates me now, like, what happened, yeah, which I don't,
08:38obviously, thank you for clarifying, yeah, and I appreciate that, I want to say, I feel like it's
08:44like, the less of the drama of a lot of these things I hear, not that there's drama, it's a
08:49fucking
08:49drama, I actually mentioned that to Emma, at the pool, mm-hmm, what'd she say? I brought up Connor,
08:57and I just don't know how they were in the pods, right, like, no one knows, like, I just, all
09:00I know
09:00is, like, the lounge experience, but she's like, I don't want to talk about that right now, and I was
09:04like, oh, okay, I mean, she was so upset that day, yeah, so that makes sense, this is so much
09:09shit,
09:10you don't even know what happened in there, the way the girls talked to me, versus how they talked in
09:14the
09:14pods, and vice versa for the guys, like, it was probably very different, like,
09:18you just know, like, what people say, yeah, well, you'll find out, you'll find out when everyone's
09:23together, mm-hmm, oh, well, all I know is, you know, our experience, I just feel like I'm just
09:29literally just hanging out with you, I know, I know, but that actually could have scared me, too,
09:35because I'm like, wait, why is this so natural, yeah, bodies in the basement, like, what's going on?
09:41I don't have a basement, but, that's your response, have you seen Dexter?
09:45the ice cream truck, the ice cream truck killer, it's the ice truck killer, yeah, it was the first
09:50season, that was a good, oh, yeah, such a good fucking show, not me accusing me of murder on the
09:55first
09:56night night, that's awesome, but I appreciate it, yeah, carried your bags in, proposed to you,
10:03now I'm the ice truck killer,

12:12uh, she was driving big rigs up and down the mountain
12:15oh my god
12:16I think she was just getting her motorcycle out of storage from there and driving it down to where she's
12:20going next
12:21um, so that's how she works
12:23that's the beauty of traveling around the world, is like, you pick and choose, like, you get the perspective that
12:27you want
12:28so, I've lived in Florida, I've spent a lot of time in Arizona
12:31I know that those are places I want to be in
12:34um, and I also know the places I don't
12:36not Cleveland?
12:37absolutely not
12:39I was pretty clear on that, though
12:40I know
12:40all your stuff is in Florida?
12:42I mean, I don't have a ton
12:43I mean, most of it's here
12:44the rest of it is in a storage unit in Florida
12:46just being as flexible as possible
12:48yeah
12:48and letting the chips fall where they may and go from there
12:51you're just so calm, so
12:52I might need a little bit more from you
12:54you want me to not be calm?
12:56no, I appreciate you being calm
12:58it's just like, I'm a little more panicked
13:00sure
13:01obviously, I've lived this type of lifestyle before
13:04so I do feel more comfortable in that
13:05but I will give as much leeway as I can towards you on it
13:09and I think we're right where we should be
13:10taking it day by day and going from there
13:12I do get nervous
13:14just the unknown
13:14fair, yeah
13:15that's very fair
13:16I've had a very, like, regimented
13:18easy life
13:19you were planning it
13:20yeah, it's because my parents
13:21and we've just had this, like, very easy, cushy life
13:24and I'm always, like, ready for adventure
13:28but this is, like, a different
13:31this isn't, like, this is crazy
13:32this is crazy
13:34right?
13:35that's exactly how I saw my life going
13:36100%
13:46wait, where are you putting your dirty clothes?
13:48my dirty clothes?
13:49yeah
13:49just keeping them in a pile right now
13:51and I'll just put them on top of the thing right up here
13:55organization
13:56you know what I mean?
13:58yes
13:59you're giving me a look like I'm crazy
14:01for being organized
14:03which I, again, I wasn't organized for a while
14:05but, got my shit together now
14:07I know, I just feel like, for me
14:09I don't really get
14:10like, once I get motivated
14:11I can be productive
14:12and I'm just not motivated right now
14:13get motivated
14:14saying to get motivated doesn't motivate me
14:17what motivates you?
14:19I think what's not motivating me right now
14:21is the fact that we don't have
14:22like, a clothes hamper or anything
14:24just puts it aside
14:25I know, but then it makes me just
14:27makes me feel crumply a little bit
14:29but that's okay
14:31do you separate your colors
14:32when you do laundry?
14:34yeah
14:35okay
14:36do you not?
14:37no, I do
14:38that's why I'm asking
14:39who doesn't separate their colors?
14:42serial killers?

24:43that's sweet
24:48that makes you
24:48feel good
24:49I agree with you
24:50what do you think
24:51about the neighborhood
24:51and we'd have to see
24:53because it would
24:53obviously mean
24:54if we had Emma
24:55throughout her days
24:56we'd have to
24:57figure out like
24:58schools and stuff
24:58yeah
24:59but I really like
25:00her school so
25:01yeah
25:01definitely will be
25:02a huge thing
25:03that we have to
25:03look at
25:03I know we've
25:04talked about it
25:05before
25:05if we kept
25:06the house
25:06in Mount Vernon
25:07just because I
25:08bought it
25:08for so cheap
25:09we could potentially
25:10like rent it out
25:11you could always
25:12come into Mount Vernon
25:12for a couple months
25:13just get sucked
25:14into Mount Vernon
25:15for the rest of your life
25:16I know
25:17I need a little
25:18variety with the forest
25:20what if you don't
25:21what if you just
25:21like get there
25:22and you find your people
25:23I did see there was
25:24a place that has
25:24pierogies up there
25:25it could be dangerous
25:26yeah
25:27no I already
25:27just weighed myself
25:28upstairs
25:29I don't need
25:29any pierogies
25:36yay
25:37excited
25:37show you
25:38my house
25:39it's an hour away
25:40Mount Vernon
25:41I'm hoping he likes it
25:42to maybe keep it
25:43in the consideration
25:44of potentially staying
25:45here for a little bit
25:46I kind of show you
25:47everything I redid

26:00and he wants to be
26:01really close to Columbus
26:02but I think

28:38I'm very excited
28:39very secure
28:40I feel very sure
28:41in the decision
28:43and I'm letting God
28:45take the lead
28:46find it strange
28:47that someone like you
28:48with your education
28:51would do this
28:52how are you single
28:52not that I think
28:53not that I think
28:54you have to be dumb
28:55to do this
28:57but at first
28:58I mean you know
28:58she doesn't fit the mold
29:00that I gathered
29:01from when I watched
29:02the show
29:03I didn't see her
29:03that way at all
29:04I'm thinking
29:05how is she gonna fit
29:07in here
29:07who put
29:08somebody put you guys
29:09together
29:10or did it just happen
29:11it just happened
29:12because you were
29:13in the group
29:14I didn't want to come in hot
29:15like do you believe in God
29:17and do this
29:17and this
29:18and like what are
29:19what do you do for a living
29:20you know I didn't want to like
29:20hit the heavy things
29:22right away
29:22and before I even had a chance
29:24to bring it up with him
29:26he brought that up
29:27with me
29:29your voice drew me in
29:30I don't know how to explain it
29:31because I've been trying
29:32to figure out
29:32how to explain it
29:33this whole time
29:33how you can feel attraction
29:35between a wall
29:36she knows things about me
29:38that no one else knows
29:39about me
29:40at this point
29:40which is mind blowing
29:42and she still accepts me
29:43for who I am
29:44because you were honest
29:46it's like the show
29:47the means that God used
29:51to put you guys together
29:52because how else
29:53would you have met
29:54it sounds corny
29:55but that's fun
29:56no I feel the same way
29:57what did you think
29:58when you saw each other
29:59for the first time
30:00I think it was like
30:01a bonus
30:02in a lot of ways
30:03I remember before
30:05those doors even opened up
30:06I'm like whoever walks
30:07through those doors
30:08like I love her
30:09right
30:09I love Christine
30:10for who she is
30:11that would be a scary moment
30:12it was
30:13there was some nerves
30:14in there
30:14I'm not gonna lie
30:14but I mean
30:16her heart is so big
30:18and I know she gets that
30:19from you in a lot of ways
30:20too
30:20so I was just happy
30:21to know that I'd be able
30:22to meet you
30:23the way she even
30:24talked about you
30:25I'm like
30:26yeah this is a woman
30:27with a big heart
30:28she gets it from somewhere
30:29and I need to meet
30:30this woman one day
30:31and just see where
30:33it comes from
30:34you know
30:34so you didn't get
30:35the whole story
30:36you didn't get
30:36the crazy part
30:38look everybody
30:39had some crazy
30:40you know
30:40I was crazy
30:41you'll see
30:42oh yeah he knows
30:42all the bad stuff
30:43we have not been
30:44a whole
30:45have a whole lot
30:46to be proud of
30:47our families
30:47we've had some
30:48major issues
30:49in our family
30:50yeah
30:51she's not had
30:52a real good dad
30:54in her life
30:55we've talked about
30:56that a little bit
30:57he was a jerk
30:58I mean he really
30:59was a jerk
31:00and I'm forgive me
31:01for saying that
31:01but it's true
31:02yet he's still
31:03your dad
31:03right
31:04he loves you
31:05that's kind of
31:05what I told him too
31:06and I was like
31:07I know he loves me
31:08and I have
31:10empathy and sympathy
31:11for him
31:11but not as like
31:12a close
31:13but when he dies
31:14you're going to feel
31:15it
31:15you're just a human
31:16yeah
31:17and you
31:17I don't know
31:18about your situation
31:20what
31:20so my father
31:21isn't in my life
31:22but there isn't
31:23any like
31:24resentment
31:25or anything
31:25there for it
31:27maybe when I was
31:27younger
31:28and into my
31:2920s
31:29I felt like that
31:30but as of now
31:31it's just more like
31:32I forgave him
31:33when we're in the pods
31:35and Christine and I
31:35were talking about
31:37her father
31:37I think one of the
31:38things we landed on
31:39was like that aspect

40:28what have you learned about Ashley?
40:30a ton
40:30a ton
40:31two times
40:31so one of the things
40:33that I fell for with her
40:35in the pods
40:36was her relationship
40:37with her family
40:37you
40:38have passed along
40:39the ability to make good decisions
40:41down to your kids
40:41and that's kind of
40:42one of the things
40:43that she definitely
40:44kind of hammered in
40:45that she's very independent
40:47very strong
40:47and very confident in herself
40:49but at the same time
40:51able to bring that
40:52to a relationship
40:52and is ready to
40:53be in one of those
40:54so
40:55I thought about you guys
40:56in the pods so much
40:57and that's kind of
40:58what I searched for
40:59in him
41:00so I found myself
41:01just wanting to talk
41:02to him more
41:03he became my best friend
41:04I remember standing
41:05outside of the pods
41:06thinking like
41:06I hope that's Alex
41:08he just had
41:10everything I was looking for
41:11beefcake
41:12didn't know
41:13love is blind
41:15quarterback
41:15soccer player
41:18but no
41:18I just learned
41:19more about him
41:19he's so adventurous
41:20that's something
41:21I want more of
41:22in my life
41:23I haven't traveled a lot
41:24and that was really
41:25appealing to me
41:26I would talk to him
41:26about you
41:27you are the protector
41:28the provider
41:30I'm gonna cry
41:34I don't know
41:35he felt like home
41:37so
41:38home not at home
41:39yeah
41:40that's what you want
41:42that's what I found
41:47so
41:48what did you study
41:49I was a communications major
41:50and then I went to
41:51finance right afterwards
41:52you studied finance
41:53or went into the field
41:54I went into the field
41:55of finance right after
41:56so I was actually
41:57a soccer player
41:58that's what I was
41:58planning on doing
41:59right after college
42:00and four knee surgeries
42:01kind of took that away
42:02before I was able
42:02to do much with it
42:03so I pivoted
42:05into financial advisory
42:07COVID hit
42:07so I took
42:09the severance package
42:10that came from that
42:10and traveled the world
42:12so I've kind of been
42:13all over for the past
42:14couple years
42:15working at the time
42:16or just traveling
42:18traveling for most of it
42:19take me through
42:20the last five years
42:21where you've lived
42:23Chicago to Tampa
42:24Tampa to San Diego
42:26San Diego to Phoenix
42:27I've lived in New Zealand
42:28I am Kiwi
42:30so I'm a dual citizen
42:31with New Zealand
42:31and I lived in Australia
42:33for a year
42:33where I worked
42:34three different jobs
42:35all over the country
42:36I was a commercial fisherman
42:37for probably four or five months
42:39up in the Northern Territory
42:40I ran a gym in Bondi Beach
42:43right outside of Sydney
42:43and then I was also
42:45a casino worker
42:46in Melbourne
42:47for a little while
42:47Did you meet
42:48Crocodile Dundee?
42:49I acted like one
42:50to be honest with you
42:51catching fish
42:52and throwing them
42:52off the side of the boat
42:53and you see crocodiles
42:54and sharks coming up
42:56it was pretty crazy
42:57I did meet my father
42:58at 25 in Hong Kong
43:00How did that occur?
43:02He left kind of
43:03before I was born
43:04started a second family
43:05in Australia
43:06ended up in Hong Kong
43:07married his translator
43:08started a third family there
43:10Were he and your mom married?
43:12No they never were
43:13I was an accident
43:15to be completely honest
43:16there was a question
43:17as to whether or not
43:18my mom was going to keep me
43:18because my grandparents
43:19were more traditional
43:21in that sense
43:22she made the decision
43:23to keep me
43:23and I became
43:24the golden grandchild
43:25my grandparents
43:26as I've kind of
43:26told her in the pods
43:27were my father figure
43:29but I called my stepfather
43:30my father
43:30How old were you
43:31when your mom remarried?
43:33I was two I believe
43:34at that time
43:34So your stepfather
43:36has been your dad
43:37for most of your life
43:38Yeah
43:39they've divorced
43:40he was not the greatest person
43:42How so?
43:42Physically abusive for sure
43:44I did get beaten
43:45a decent amount growing up
43:47and didn't kind of
43:48have that love from him
43:49my grandparents
43:50definitely stepped in
43:51and were the ones
43:52that kind of showed me
43:52exactly what
43:53that type of love was
43:54and the way I kind of
43:56say it
43:57and how I said it
43:57in the pods
43:58was I feel as though
43:59I learned how to be
43:59a phenomenal husband
44:00and a phenomenal father
44:01by learning the inverse of that
44:03Who's your male role model?
44:05Your grandfather?
44:05Absolutely
44:06so he would pull down
44:07an atlas
44:08a big atlas
44:09of the world obviously
44:10and he worked
44:12in structured lending
44:13and then he would fly
44:15across the world
44:15to places like Iraq
44:16Iran, Afghanistan
44:17Hot spots?
44:18Exactly
44:19and go try and set those up
44:20How old did your grandfather
44:21live to be?
44:23Uh 67
44:24Oh my
44:24Yeah
44:25My grandmother passed
44:26early as well
44:26How long were they married?
44:28Um 50 plus years
44:29I believe it was probably
44:3053 realistically
44:31but uh the story
44:32It could have been that long
44:33It was
44:34It was
44:34It was 60 what
44:35when he died?
44:36No no no
44:3667
44:37I was told a 50 year marriage
44:38from my aunt
44:39before this
44:39I don't know the specific one
44:41Gold anniversary
44:41Exactly
44:41that's what I was told
44:43he was hitting on my
44:44my grandmother
44:45in Pomona, California
44:47she was a waitress
44:47he was working business
44:48at the time
44:49and he basically
44:50said hey
44:50can I get your number
44:51and she gave it to him
44:52and when he called
44:53she actually thought
44:54it was somebody else
44:54and she fell in love
44:56with his voice
44:56over the phone
44:57Oh okay
44:58and they started dating
44:58after that
44:59Exactly
45:00Are you making that up?
45:01No
45:01Look at me right here
45:02Are you making that up?
45:03I got a text message
45:04from my aunt
45:05You looked down and left
45:05I looked down and right
45:07which I don't know
45:08what that means
45:08You looked that way
45:09I looked at the steak
45:10No you looked that way
45:10Did I?
45:11Alright maybe not
45:12That's what my aunt
45:13told me to be honest with you
45:14So what makes you think
45:15you can settle down?
45:16You're tired of moving?
45:18Different chicks?
45:18Absolutely
45:18I'm tired of figuring out
45:19a different grocery store
45:20and a different gym
45:21and different friends
45:21throughout every city
45:22Different chicks?
45:24I won't lie
45:25Absolutely
45:26Okay
45:26You know
45:27I'll kill them
45:29Absolutely
45:31So you still in the finance field?
45:32I'm not
45:33I do day trading
45:34on the side a little bit
45:35What do you day trade?
45:36The Australian dollar
45:37over the US dollar
45:38How many trades
45:38do you make a week?
45:39Five good ones a day
45:40You use a broker
45:41or do you do it yourself?
45:42I do it myself
45:43Do you have any licenses
45:44right now?
45:45So they've expired on my end
45:46because I wasn't sure
45:47I was going to go back
45:47into finance
45:48I want to get into crypto
45:49as well
45:49What's the price of Bitcoin today?
45:51About a hundred grand
45:52I don't know
45:53at the moment
45:53You trade no other currency?
45:55Not at the moment
45:55No
45:56Did you vote for Trump?
45:58I didn't vote
45:59but I would have voted
46:00for Trump
46:00You cop out?
46:01Well I wasn't here
46:02I know it's a cop out
46:03I'm absolutely conservative
46:05though without a doubt
46:06without a doubt
46:06and I'm happy that he won
46:07I'm actually really sorry
46:09about him
46:09I'm sorry
46:10You're good
46:10You're good
46:11I was a lawyer
46:12obviously
46:12I can take the heat
46:13I'll give it back
46:14I may like to you
46:14just to see
46:15Fair enough
46:16I always find the answer
46:17I bet you do
46:18I'm a professional
46:19question asker
46:20and I will tell you this
46:21Ashley
46:22she's fucking just like me
46:25I can see some similarities
46:27without a doubt
46:27You're studying me
46:28without a doubt
46:29and that's okay
46:29you should be
46:30I've studied every bit of you
46:31I believe it
46:32You're like me though
46:33You'll play the fool
46:34a little bit
46:35to see what the other person is
46:36and then you're gonna come through
46:37So you admit you are
46:37playing the fool
46:38Am I?
46:39You said you were
46:41Am I?
46:41Yes
46:42I might be
46:43but I think you're a lot smarter
46:44than you're letting on to
46:45I'm not that smart
46:46I don't believe that for a second
46:48You know when you have a family
46:50you're gonna say
46:52buh-bye Alex
46:53What do you bring to the table
46:55as a father?
46:56What I've been told
46:56is what happens is
46:57as soon as that baby
46:58shows up in your arms
47:00you will sacrifice your life
47:02for that baby
47:03I'm drawing from a desire
47:06to rewrite my own childhood
47:07in the sense of
47:08I get to now
47:09be that person
47:10that they're looking up to
47:11that's maybe a little selfish
47:12but I'm honest with it
47:13I've been tested
47:14outside of the parenthood
47:16Soccer was a big thing for me
47:17I was supposed to not
47:18ever make it
47:19and I changed everything
47:20about myself
47:21I became somebody that
47:22was the first person
47:23in the locker room
47:24the last to leave
47:24and that's not a cliche
47:25when I say it
47:26because it's true
47:27I became a walk-on
47:28that turned into
47:28a first-team All-American
47:30captain of that team
47:31and was the first goalkeeper
47:32drafted even though
47:33I had four knee surgeries
47:34to lose that
47:35in a very crucial part
47:36of my life
47:37took away my career
47:38took away what I would have made
47:39it was my therapy
47:40realistically
47:41so when that was gone
47:42I had to reinvent
47:43myself completely
47:44and that's not easy to do
47:45and I think that will
47:46translate to other
47:47other parts of my life
47:48as well
47:48What do you want to do?
47:50I want to day trade
47:51full-time
47:52I love coaching soccer
47:53I've got kind of
47:54jobs set up in
47:56in Florida
47:56Southwest Florida
47:57and then I can also
47:58A career job
47:59or more day trading?
48:00A career job
48:01day trading is also
48:02taking care of itself
48:03at the moment
48:03but I can go back
48:05into finance if I need to
48:06there's another
48:07external wholesaling position
48:08down in Southwest Florida
48:09as well
48:10that I'm currently involved in
48:11or interviewing for as well
48:12I do have a financial position
48:14in Arizona
48:16that's something I can
48:16get back into
48:17if I need to
48:17I can either
48:19get another apartment here
48:20for a month to month
48:20we've been talking about
48:21kind of moving to warmer weather
48:22at some point
48:23depending on
48:24the kind of things
48:24that go on with
48:25your career at the moment
48:26What do you bring to the table?
48:29I just cry
48:32here's the best advice
48:33I can give you
48:34I did divorce work
48:35for 41 years
48:37and I've told
48:38almost all of my clients
48:39the exact same thing
48:40never
48:42ever
48:43call them a name
48:44they'll remember
48:45the rest of their lives
48:47it's that simple
48:48you know
48:49there's gonna be good times
48:50there's gonna be bad times
48:51but always be
48:52there for each other
48:54never let the sun
48:55set on your anger man
48:56if you have a disagreement
48:58during the day
48:58make sure you clear it up
48:59before the night
49:00and always
49:02when you're making a decision
49:04put the other person first
49:08I like that
49:08is that something
49:09that you can do?
49:10I think I
49:12can definitely do that
49:12and it's obviously
49:13panned out for the both of you
49:14well I always put myself first
49:18he doesn't follow
49:18his own advice
