Rules are Made for the Lowest Common Denominator (LA 792)
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: And I'm Jill DeWit. Broadcasting from sunny southern California.
Steven Butala: Today, Jill and I talk about how rules are made for the lowest common denominator, not the people who listen to this show, not the people who host this show, the lowest common denominator. I'll explain.
Jill DeWit: I have something funny to say by the way. Remember I was thinking about ... we always say we're from southern California, now people can see us, right? But they're like, "Yeah, right. We don't see it. There's a black studio. There's nothing behind you that we see."
Steven Butala: We're in a closet.
Jill DeWit: "I don't even believe that you're really there."
Steven Butala: We're in Jill's walk-in closet.
Jill DeWit: "Really? Are you really there?" And it's funny because I thought, you remember a year and a half ago, I think it was a year and a half ago that we started to go out and do these on-location thinking that would be a good idea. Oh, that was such a pain-
Steven Butala: Very bad idea.
Jill DeWit: It was hard to do.
Steven Butala: Well, it wasn't even ... I would do it every day if that's what people wanted, but nobody liked it.
Jill DeWit: I don't remember.
Steven Butala: Nobody saw the value in it.
Jill DeWit: Oh.
Steven Butala: I got all kinds of stuff like, "Can you guys please go back to ... because I listen to this in the car and I don't care."
Jill DeWit: I thought the quality-
Steven Butala: "I truly don't care about your life."
Jill DeWit: I thought the quality was not the best, so.
Steven Butala: The quality was great.
Jill DeWit: Maybe once in a while, but I mean there's always background noise and there was people walking by, you know, that kind of thing. So you know what I'd like to do? Maybe we could do it once in a while on-location, though, because I would like to show everybody we really are here.
Steven Butala: In case you can't tell, this is a novice hobby of mine.
Jill DeWit: Key word being novice.
Steven Butala: This audio video thing, like, watch me change the cameras. Here, I have to do it myself.
Jill DeWit: I know.
Steven Butala: Most people have people in a studio and they have more than one person doing everything.
Jill DeWit: Okay. Thank you.
Steven Butala: Jill's right. Enjoy the inside of Jill's closet.
Jill DeWit: Thanks.
Steven Butala: I'm just joking. Before we get into it, let's take a question posted by one of our members on the LandInvestors.com online community, it's free.
Jill DeWit: Maria asks, "Hi all you land flippers, I am new to the group,
