Transcript: 

Jack Butala:                       Jack and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                           Happy holidays.

Jack Butala:                       Welcome to the Jack and Jill show. It's here that we provide entertaining real estate investment advice. I'm Jack Butala.

Jill DeWit:                           And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting this week still from sunny Southern California.

Jack Butala:                       Today, Jill and I talk about the deal-to-death threat ratio.

Jill DeWit:                           Yikes.

Jack Butala:                       Courtesy of one of members, Jason.

Jill DeWit:                           Yikes.

Jack Butala:                       It's a lot cooler than it sounds. Trust me.

Jill DeWit:                           Yikes. Hey, by the way, jack, I just have to pause and ask you a quick question. Christmas is just around the corner and I just walked past our Christmas tree here in the office and what would you like under the tree?

Jack Butala:                       Oh my gosh. '65 Stingray convertible, if you could.

Jill DeWit:                           Okay, what would you like that will fit under the tree?

Jack Butala:                       Oh geez. You know what?

Jill DeWit:                           What?

Jack Butala:                       I want everyone-

Jill DeWit:                           What?

Jack Butala:                       ... in our life, personal life-

Jill DeWit:                           Under the tree?

Jack Butala:                       Forget about our members.

Jill DeWit:                           That won't fit under the tree.

Jack Butala:                       I want everyone happy.

Jill DeWit:                           You want anyone under the tree?

Jack Butala:                       Everyone's already happy. I want everyone to get what they want and be prosperous and happy. I would love ... I would happily accept absolutely nothing. This holiday season, if these damn Las Angeles fires would stop.

Jill DeWit:                           Oh I know.

Jack Butala:                       That's what I really want.

Jill DeWit:                           It is really scary. I know. You're right.

Jack Butala:                       Structures are burning in Bel-Air today. That's very, very-

Jill DeWit:                           I know. It's very sad and scary.

Jack Butala:                       ... upsetting.

Jill DeWit:                           I know. So, yes. Well, I, for one, I'm very excited for this Christmas, because you have bought me several nice gifts under the tree.

Jack Butala:                       All righty. Are they wrapped and everything?

Jill DeWit:                           Oh yeah, yeah.

Jack Butala:                       What did you get so far?

Jill DeWit:                           I can't share that. It's not Christmas yet.

Jack Butala:                       Some classics.

Jill DeWit:                           Yeah, oh it's great.

Jack Butala:                       You know, as long as you're happy, Jill, I'm happy.

Jill DeWit:                           Thank you. Isn't it nice when you get to this point in your relationship that you can just go and you know what you want? It's like we don't have to surprise each other. It's all good. But there will be some surprises I know. It's nice that I can go, and say, "Look what you got me," and you go, "Oh that's awesome."

Jack Butala:                       You'll get a surprise gift from me for sure.

Jill DeWit:                           I know I will. Thank you. I appreciate that, Jack.

Jack Butala:                       You just asked me last night at dinner for a Gordie Howe Jersey, which just makes my heart [crosstalk 00:02:08].

Jill DeWit:                           I did. I thought, well, that's the only thing ... okay, so here we are in L.A.
