Transcription: 
Well, for me personally, I need to be clear about something. While I'm the advisor in my household. I think my wife really manages the house. I go to work at an office. I own a company. I bring home the bulk of the money in our household. There is no question in my mind -- and I'll tell anybody who wants to hear it -- my wife works much harder than I do. Raising a family today, whether you have one kid or six kids, is a huge job. Managing the house and all of the things that go along with that. I'm not talking about financial responsibilities, I'm talking about life responsibilities. Me, managing a house, I try and help as much as I can. I have a lot of input in everything that goes on in my house, but I'd be a fool to say that I manage our house. My wife really does all the work. I celebrate her for it.
