Transcript:

Steven Butala:                   Steve and Jill here.

Jill DeWit:                            Hello.

Steven Butala:                   Welcome to The Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.

Jill DeWit:                            I'm Jill DeWit broadcasting from sunny southern California.

Steven Butala:                   Today, Jill and I talk about our $25,000 profit SFR failure.

Jill DeWit:                            That's so funny. It's hard ... Yes, we screwed it all up, let's just say, and only made 25,000.

Steven Butala:                   This is the conversation we had right before we hit the record button.

Jill DeWit:                            Yep.

Steven Butala:                   This is Jill talking, "How do you expect to have a successful podcast with the word failure in the title?"

Jill DeWit:                            Yeah. Where are you going with that?

Steven Butala:                   "Can we just make this positive somehow?"

Jill DeWit:                            Exactly.

Steven Butala:                   "What is it with you and the negative stuff?"

Jill DeWit:                            Fail with Land Academy.

Steven Butala:                   We just did a show a couple days ago, "Ethics? Why do you want to talk about ethics at all?"

Jill DeWit:                            Oh, my gosh.

Steven Butala:                   "Can't we talk about-"

Jill DeWit:                            Ethics and failure-

Steven Butala:                   "... banana splits with a cherry on top?"

Jill DeWit:                            What? Next we're going to bring in My Lawyer Can Be Your Lawyer, and Let's Talk Taxes. Where are you coming up ... I want to go ... To follow up what you told me the other day, "Oh, yeah? Well, you try coming up with 895 titles." Okay, well, I won't pick My Lawyer Is Your Lawyer.

Steven Butala:                   Join us next tomorrow where we talk about My First Divorce.

Jill DeWit:                            Yeah. That to be great. It's not me. That's awesome.

Steven Butala:                   Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members-

Jill DeWit:                            Wait, wait, wait, wait ... I want to back up here. Let's think of the three real quick, the three worst titles that we could cover.

Steven Butala:                   All right.

Jill DeWit:                            I like to say one is, "Today we talk income tax." Let's see ...

Steven Butala:                   Jack's Journey Through Foot Fungus.

Jill DeWit:                            My Kid Got Detention Again. Let's see. Let me see here. And, Who Says Being Bipolar Can't Work For You?

Steven Butala:                   Your Marriage and Your Sexual Incompatibility.

Jill DeWit:                            Yeah. There we go. All right, you got one more. I did three. You do one more.

Steven Butala:                   No, go ahead. I did a bunch.

Jill DeWit:                            Okay.

Steven Butala:                   You just don't remember them, because you were thinking about your own.

Jill DeWit:                            No, that's bad. Oh, my gosh. Okay. I think we've covered, though. I just wanted to get a few of those horrible topics out of the way that could be talking about that we're not.

Steven Butala:                   Did you ever see Fight Club the movie?
