<v Speaker 1>Jerry, Katy and Josh Max one hundred.
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so Katie threw out a hypothetical off the air
<v Speaker 2>the other day and we're like, ooh, this is kind
<v Speaker 2>of interesting.
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, some fun brain candy. Yeah you got Well.
<v Speaker 4>I've been watching Outlander a lot, and that show is
<v Speaker 4>set in all different times, and one of it is
<v Speaker 4>the eighteen hundreds, and so it got me thinking, would
<v Speaker 4>you guys rather be rich in.
<v Speaker 1>The eighteen hundreds or poor now?
<v Speaker 4>And that is a good little hypothetical because there's a
<v Speaker 4>lot of things that go into the rich in the
<v Speaker 4>eighteen hundreds, right, I mean, you could be taken out
<v Speaker 4>by a splinter, so it doesn't really matter, right. But
<v Speaker 4>here in present times, I mean, there's so much things
<v Speaker 4>that we've.
<v Speaker 3>Came you know, or now, Like are we like are
<v Speaker 3>we living on the streets?
<v Speaker 5>No?
<v Speaker 4>Maybe goll a one bedroom off Colfax. I don't know, like,
<v Speaker 4>I don't.
<v Speaker 1>Know exactly what the specifics are.
<v Speaker 3>Just poor comfortable eighteen hundred anymore, I feel uncomfortable. Why
<v Speaker 3>apologies to everybody in the one bedrooms.
<v Speaker 1>Uncle, They come on.
<v Speaker 4>They know Colorado's the fourth most expensive state to live,
<v Speaker 4>and we know it's spendy to live here.
<v Speaker 3>We know what our situation is. So you're let's just
<v Speaker 3>say you're struggling.
<v Speaker 2>You know you're falling on hard times, bad times, and
<v Speaker 2>you're struggling.
<v Speaker 3>So would you I don't like this now.
<v Speaker 1>You know what they have in mind.
<v Speaker 3>But no, seriously, even.
<v Speaker 2>Flis right, like, well, yes, because if you think about yes,
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people that don't have money still have
<v Speaker 2>like cell phones in internet access exactly, you have access
<v Speaker 2>to food and help and things like that.
<v Speaker 5>But I think eight hundreds you have more much more
<v Speaker 5>power with the richness. You are a much more powerful
<v Speaker 5>part because there's billions of rich people now, you know.
<v Speaker 5>But back, I mean you pull out a dollar bill
<v Speaker 5>in the eighteen hundreds, I know people are looking at
<v Speaker 5>you sad ways.
<v Speaker 1>Hilario is coming for you. So like all of these
<v Speaker 1>things could happen.
<v Speaker 2>Full mines are open if anyone wants to sound off
<v Speaker 2>about this. Would you like to be incredibly wealthy in
<v Speaker 2>the eighteen hundreds or incredibly poor?
<v Speaker 6>Now?
<v Speaker 3>What would be better?
<v Speaker 2>Three O three six nine one one makes three oh
<v Speaker 2>three six nine one sixteen forty nine.
<v Speaker 1>Make Jeremy proud.
<v Speaker 3>I'm uncomfortable. So the thing I instantly go to.
<v Speaker 2>In the eighteen hundreds is when you had a lot
<v Speaker 2>of cash.
<v Speaker 3>You had like household staff.
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you can have cooks and maids and butlers
<v Speaker 2>and gardeners and nannies and people that take care of.
<v Speaker 3>All your horses, and you've got a lot of help.
<v Speaker 2>And that would be awesome because you could just kind
<v Speaker 2>of enjoy your day and hang out, you know, and
<v Speaker 2>you've got people helping you.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, someone gives you a bath, you don't even
<v Speaker 4>have to do that by yourself.
<v Speaker 1>They're water or you know.
<v Speaker 4>Putting buckets of water up journey on you. That's fine,
<v Speaker 4>you're the first one to use it. At least you're
<v Speaker 4>not the third person in line to use that bathwater.
<v Speaker 4>You know.
<v Speaker 2>Because you're rich, you didn't have television and the internet,
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, people.
<v Speaker 3>Are actually nobody did.
<v Speaker 2>But you had access to theater and operas and like
<v Speaker 2>exclusive balls in private parties and sports events, like.
<v Speaker 3>You're at all the big things.
<v Speaker 2>No, but if you're rich, if you're rich in the
<v Speaker 2>eighteen hundreds, and that's the thing you've got to place yourself,
<v Speaker 2>Like you don't know what's going on nowadays with your
<v Speaker 2>Netflix and your cell phones and stuff like. You'd only
<v Speaker 2>be it's all you would know, right in the eighteen
<v Speaker 2>hundreds exactly.
<v Speaker 4>But you could get a fever and that could be
<v Speaker 4>it for you, no matter how much money you have.
<v Speaker 3>They would would they do? They would bleed you? Right, Yes,
<v Speaker 3>it would.
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.
<v Speaker 3>And welcome to the show. I'm uncomfortable by this.
<v Speaker 6>Good morning.
<v Speaker 3>I'm trying to be delicate about this whole thing. I'm uncomfortable.
<v Speaker 2>But you're gonna be rich in the eighteen hundreds or
<v Speaker 2>poor now.
<v Speaker 6>I already feel like I'm poor now, right, So rich
<v Speaker 6>in the eighteen hundred sounds fun?
<v Speaker 1>Okay, see you know.
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but you know what, even if you're you're poor now,
<v Speaker 2>you still hopefully have refrigeration and air conditioning and heat.
<v Speaker 6>There are those amenities. Yeah, I actually saw that. I
<v Speaker 6>was like, that's you know, rest back then, just you know,
<v Speaker 6>slat and smelling all the time.
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but you wouldn't know any better.
<v Speaker 6>You would know any Yeah, you wouldn't know any difference.
<v Speaker 2>You'd have the best clothing, you'd be hanging out with
<v Speaker 2>the best people, I guess, the best inner circles.
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you'd be in the time of like Shakespeare,
<v Speaker 4>you know, like you would literally be in.
<v Speaker 3>That ninety eighteen hundred.
<v Speaker 1>You can appreciate, right, No, Shakespeare, there.
<v Speaker 3>Was sixteen two hundred years before seen, so.
<v Speaker 4>You'd have all of that though, Like they appreciated, Yeah,
<v Speaker 4>the theater they.
<v Speaker 3>Look up when Shakespeare died in sixteen six.
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, maybe I was a little like there were things
<v Speaker 4>back then we appreciated way more than we do now.
<v Speaker 3>You know we have now antibiotics and air conditioning. We
<v Speaker 3>already said that.
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, yeah, yeah, so you but you're picking the
<v Speaker 2>eighteen hundreds though, right, yeah, all right, you're going back back.
<v Speaker 3>Somebody play Huey Lewis, okay, Anna, thank you for calling.
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I'm good on thank you? Am?
<v Speaker 3>I so uncomfortable?
<v Speaker 4>Why?
<v Speaker 5>I know?
<v Speaker 1>Go with it, Roll with.
<v Speaker 2>It, Jared, I don't want to. Three O three six
<v Speaker 2>nine one sixteen forty nine. Three oh three six nine
<v Speaker 2>one sixteen forty nine. Would you rather be poor now
<v Speaker 2>or rich in the eighteen hundreds? Here's a Katie Hi, Katie.
<v Speaker 3>Hey, hey girl, Katie, say hi to Katie. Hi, Katy,
<v Speaker 3>Katie say hi to Katie.
<v Speaker 6>Hi Katie.
<v Speaker 3>So are you going to be poor now or rich? Rich? Rich?
<v Speaker 3>On your wildness dreams in the eighteen hundreds.
<v Speaker 7>I'm going to be poor now because the only way
<v Speaker 7>a woman could be rich back then is because she
<v Speaker 7>was like married to somebody. Like, we have so many
<v Speaker 7>rights right now, like I can vote, I can own
<v Speaker 7>things like I don't want.
<v Speaker 3>To be that's a good point.
<v Speaker 7>I would hate to be a female back then.
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point. I didn't even think about that.
<v Speaker 1>You're right, we couldn't even be rich without our husband
<v Speaker 1>being rich.
<v Speaker 3>Oh, there had to have been some rich.
<v Speaker 1>For it, though, I mean they did. Yeah, so that's such.
<v Speaker 4>A good but I didn't even think about that little
<v Speaker 4>caveat in there.
<v Speaker 2>But Devil's Advocate, even if you were a wealthy like spouse, Katie,
<v Speaker 2>you were married to a wealthy guy, wouldn't that still
<v Speaker 2>be great because you get access still to all the
<v Speaker 2>great clothing, all the great food, all the great help,
<v Speaker 2>and you don't have to work.
<v Speaker 3>You don't have to worry about working.
<v Speaker 6>Because you're still property.
<v Speaker 7>You're not like, yeah, it's I don't know. I would
<v Speaker 7>never try that.
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't.
<v Speaker 1>That's a good point. You kind of got me on
<v Speaker 1>the fence now because.
<v Speaker 3>Once you put that stupid corsets. You don't want to
<v Speaker 3>wear that.
<v Speaker 1>It's uncomfortable.
<v Speaker 2>I've done it once, Katie, And that was it. Joking,
<v Speaker 2>all right, thanks for the call.
<v Speaker 3>Okay, she took that one a little serious.
<v Speaker 5>What do you mean, No, she.
<v Speaker 3>Made a great point.
<v Speaker 1>Women.
<v Speaker 4>It's different because we would have to give up a
<v Speaker 4>lot of things that we're just you know, we're used
<v Speaker 4>to today being able to voulte one of.
<v Speaker 3>Them, yeah, dental care and dental care.
<v Speaker 1>Nobody likes wooden teeth, Jeremy.
<v Speaker 3>I don't know back then you might have been into it.
<v Speaker 4>We wouldn't know any better, right, Show those teeth, baby,
