00:00 Somebody asked me over on the Common Sense Retirement Planning text line. said, Charlie, did I hear correctly? Is David Stumbo in the hospital? Well, he was. He was in the hospital. ah Here's the text. Charlie, did I hear right Mr. Stumbo is in the hospital? Yes, Richard, you're exactly right. Well, he was in the hospital. According to him, he woke up Saturday morning, wasn't feeling good. 00:28 called the doctor, the doctor said, we're gonna get you to the hospital, we're gonna get you checked out. But he's already back on the campaign trail. So let me tell you, now I'm no doctor and I don't know his diagnosis, but let me tell you what is probably going on here as far as what I know. I mean, these people, it is so easy, number one, to get exhausted. These folks, I mean, I just saw them, you know, saw, 00:55 David Stumbo this weekend. I mean it just it was just all kinds of stuff going on. This guy's going all over the state um It's easy to get exhausted and When you're out there and you're just so busy, it's easy to kind of get a little you know lacks on taking care of yourself Sometimes you get to hydrate it you don't even realize it and the next thing you know things just don't aren't working right I don't know if that's what happened, but I would imagine with the schedule that some of these people are keeping 01:24 That's exactly, I would imagine, uh what happened. But David Stonewell, apparently, AOK is back on the campaign trail as we speak. And don't forget, tomorrow is election day. This is runoff day. Everywhere, wherever you voted in the primary, 01:45 Wherever you voted in the primary, that's the place you're going to vote for the runoff. Okay? Now if you're not sure, now maybe you say, hey Charlie, I didn't vote in the primary, but I sure would like to vote in the runoff. You can still do that. Just go to scvotes.gov. That's scvotes.gov. Find your polling place. 02:07 go and vote tomorrow. Tomorrow is it. I mean, we're going to find out a whole lot. We're to find out the governor's race, which we'll talk about in just a second. We're going to find out the attorney general's race. We're going to find out the commissioner of agriculture and some of our districts also have runoffs going on. So let's go to John in Spartanburg. Talk about Pamela. What's going on, John? How you doing, Charlie? I'm good, man. What's up? I have a couple of questions for you. First question, how long 02:44 I don't know why I might my I would say 20 years a career a career. good career a good 20 year. Right. Right. Or you can get up and done. Right. And my next question is on a lieutenant governor salary. How does a person rack up five to 10 million dollars in seven to eight years. 03:10 Well, that's it. I Pamela Ebbett was a very successful businesswoman before she became lieutenant governor. So most of her money came before all of that. If that were not the case, we would have a lot more things to worry about. Right? Right. Because I looked it up and since she's been in the office, she's been in there seven and half years, I believe, what it said. Her net worth grow to five to ten million dollars in them seven years. 03:39 Yeah, probably. 03:50 government and then once you go into government it grows that much and that short of time. That's what I was curious about. Maybe I'm not seeing the big picture. Well here's the thing we don't know how much she's got invested we don't know what company she's invested in that could have been the you know making money off the stock market and stuff like that but but I don't I mean I don't know I mean that's something we've always got to consider that's one thing and I appreciate it John that's one thing that hasn't come up in this race is finances. 04:19 What did come up is the unprecedented move by Donald Trump.
