welcome everyone Adam duh woo here as
0:04
the recording of us Thursday August 24th
0:07
2023 I standing here in Celebration
0:10
Florida along Water Street these plants
0:12
have grown up considerably since the
0:15
last time I even paid attention
0:17
to the little stretch of foliage here
0:19
along the water I am wearing an
0:21
appropriate t-shirt
0:24
because it is pumpkin spice season has
0:28
officially kicked off today as of this
0:31
moment at Starbucks and I'm pretty happy
0:33
because this shirt I have not been able
0:35
to fit in comfortably for a heck of a
0:37
long time
0:38
so I decided to throw it on
0:40
wearing a pumpkin I'm going to be
0:43
consuming a pumpkin I've been doing
0:45
pretty decent on the weight loss I will
0:47
be having a weigh in in a series few
0:50
series of days three four days from now
0:53
before heading
0:54
out of the state at the end of the month
0:57
I will do that right before I depart
1:00
out of town in a few days and I'm going
1:03
to celebrate today by having a pumpkin
1:06
spice latte
1:11
not sure how many calories are in that
1:11
probably don't want to know
1:13
but I'm gonna do it so I'm going to head
1:15
down
1:16
mark it straight
1:18
go to Starbucks
1:20
and I also have another announcement I
1:24
have sold my Disney stock
1:27
it's gone
1:29
I did it about four or five days ago did
1:31
it before it completely crashed today it
1:34
went down three or four more dollars
1:36
thankfully I sold it before then
1:38
didn't make any money on when I uh
1:40
bought it
1:41
a year ago nine months ago ten months
1:44
ago but I didn't take much of a loss in
1:46
fact a very teeny tiny
1:48
tiny tiny loss really pretty much hardly
1:51
any loss just enough
1:53
to where it wasn't that big of an issue
1:55
I think I bought in at 80
1:59
7
2:01
and I sold at 86.5 something like that
2:04
so a 50 Cent per share loss nonetheless
2:07
I'll talk about a little bit more of
2:09
that my thoughts on Disney
2:11
going to Disney
2:13
being a DVC member and getting out of
2:17
the stock game I think I I think I'm
2:19
bailing at the right time nonetheless
2:21
pumpkin spice is about to happen it's a
2:23
long intro I'm inviting you to join me
2:26
tell you I am pretty excited in a few
2:28
days to see how much I've lost might not
2:31
be what I wanted to lose
2:34
but I've been doing it the healthy way
2:35
hitting the gym every day if you want to
2:37
follow my Instagram stories I've been
2:39
going to the gym for way over 40 days I
2:41
almost did 50 days in a row of not
2:43
breaking the gym habit just going into
2:46
the gym every day has become
2:48
a nice good habit in my life and after
2:51
the 50 days is over I'm not going to
2:53
stop I'm just going to keep it going and
2:55
come up with a new goal
3:01
I I feel pretty good I feel really good
3:01
I probably feel the the best I felt in a
3:04
long time is just as far as feeling
3:06
healthy but yeah my Instagram is Adam
3:08
the woo atw that's Adam the woo followed
3:11
by an atw all no spaces nothing like
3:15
that and you can kind of follow along
3:17
with me on there and I post daily
3:19
stories whatever I am in the gym I
3:21
figure if I'm making daily videos why
3:22
not do another daily habit and get a
3:25
little bit healthy by going to the gym
3:26
this is where it's at now not that it
3:28
affects me in any way shape or form
3:29
because I am no longer invested but it's
3:31
an 80 82 47 it dropped down
3:36
3.6 percent today three dollars and
3:39
sixteen cents per share now
3:42
I ended up getting well actually
3:44
yesterday it officially went through the
3:46
trade confirmation went through but I
3:48
sold it a few days ago it takes a few
3:49
days for it to completely go
3:51
go uh
3:52
to completely be confirmed and then jump
3:55
and then drop in to your bank account
3:57
and all that so I think I pulled yeah I
4:00
stated I think I pulled out probably at
4:03
the right time
4:09
I had high hopes
4:09
but I really have kind of reevaluated
4:12
after jpeck left us I really had some
4:14
hopes and Bob Iger turned the company
4:17
around now I know he can't turn it
4:18
around so quickly but I just don't feel
4:20
like it's going to turn around for a
4:22
while and I know not only just one
4:25
person can a company make
4:28
but yeah I don't I don't know
4:30
got it
4:36
now I went with a low-fat milk and no
4:36
cream on the top and only one pump
4:39
so I said just don't put us don't put as
4:40
much as you put in the usual one maybe
4:42
like a little lower on the calendar this
4:44
is not definitely like a low calorie
4:46
drink by any means but lower than what
4:48
the normal would be I've seen the photos
4:49
but it has like all the cream on top no
4:51
cream on this one
4:53
and just
4:54
one pump
4:57
of
5:00
the pumpkin
5:10
and these come out and I believe they
5:10
went a little low on the sugar
5:12
also which is a good thing
5:23
don't know
5:23
hello squirrel
5:25
after hiding in my shadows girl there
5:28
you go
5:30
yeah you know what it's pretty good I
5:32
would imagine if I would have got the
5:33
whipped cream on it and it would have
5:35
been the proper amount of pumpage
5:37
and sugar
5:42
this is good I'm not gonna say it's
5:42
great
5:44
but I would get this again
5:49
I think the cold
5:49
might sell more
5:53
than the pumpkin spice latte might be
5:55
sold more as a cold beverage than a hot
5:57
one I'm a hot I'm a hot coffee kind of
5:59
guy so basically that's it
6:01
I went in uh pretty intensely on Disney
6:04
stock a while back
6:05
fact a couple years ago bought a bunch
6:08
when there was a dip the price went up
6:11
exponentially I sold it made a little
6:14
chunk of change and utilized that to buy
6:17
some DVC points which is part of the
6:19
reason a percentage of my points for
6:22
being a DVC member
6:25
came from the profit I made off of
6:28
Disney stock I thought I could do that
6:30
again this year
6:32
went that dipped down to about 87. but
6:35
oh it's never going to go any lower than
6:36
this bought it jpeck was ousted Iger
6:40
came in stock went up
6:43
through the roof it went to like one 110
6:45
I thought oh man this is on its way to
6:47
200.
6:49
should have sold it at 110.
6:51
I didn't want to sell it when it hit 110
6:54
even though I bought it at 87.
6:57
because
6:58
with when it comes to taxes you have to
7:01
pay more taxes on a short-term sale
7:04
versus long terms you want to leave it
7:06
in at least a year but because what I
7:09
just sold was around about the same
7:11
price I didn't make a profit on it kind
7:13
of broke even I'm not going to have to
7:16
pay the same taxes I would if I would
7:18
have made a big profit granted when
7:20
you're making a profit the taxes you're
7:22
paying still are not going to be as
7:24
dramatic as the profit that you made but
7:27
that was the reason I did not sell it at
7:28
110 I was like you know I don't wait
7:29
till at least 12 months is up that I can
7:31
have I could have the lower tax fee the
7:34
following year so as far as I can tell
7:37
will not have to pay any taxes because I
7:39
didn't make on The Profit that I made
7:42
because I didn't make any profit I broke
7:43
even on it so I'm kind of back to square
7:45
one again but it feels pretty good to
7:48
have that money in my bank account in
7:51
the savings account and can go forward
7:53
from here what I want to do as far as
7:55
investing goes now rest assured I still
7:58
will be a DB PC member in fact I might
8:00
at some point
8:01
buy more DVC points I just love just a
8:03
vacation club I love the theme parks I
8:06
love that whole experience I'll always
8:08
be a pass holder most likely to be a
8:10
Passover on both coasts traveling going
8:13
to the parks that's not going to change
8:16
but I feel outside of that from a
8:19
financial
8:20
profitable standpoint I don't think the
8:23
company right now is at a point
8:27
where it's going to be profitable for a
8:29
long time I feel like my money
8:32
can be put to better use elsewhere
8:35
and especially with it dropping yeah I
8:37
just don't want to take a chance
8:39
and it just kind of going out the other
8:42
end
8:43
now granted because I didn't really lose
8:45
anything the amount I lost is just so
8:47
minimal
8:48
that if it continues to drop and it does
8:50
say it goes down to 50 or 40 and then I
8:53
start to see it going back up a little
8:54
bit
8:55
I might buy some more you know if it
8:57
gets to 50 and then it goes up to 55 and
8:59
it's like oh yeah everything's getting
9:00
turned around
9:01
not saying I won't
9:03
but right now this is definitely
9:07
this is probably the most disappointed
9:10
I've been as far in as the company goes
9:13
in a while so I just feel I feel like
9:15
the money could be spent or be put
9:18
elsewhere again just from a financial
9:21
investment standpoint just
9:24
as you get those feelings where you
9:25
think yeah
9:26
you have to go with your gut instinct on
9:28
things but I feel
9:30
I feel safer haven't
9:32
what
9:33
you know
9:34
cutting ties with all that
9:37
I feel safer just having that in my own
9:39
in my own possession and every day
9:41
lately I've just been checking to see if
9:44
the stocks go it's going down it's going
9:45
down it's going up just a little bit oh
9:46
what's going on it's just too much
9:48
stress
9:50
if I know it's just stable in one spot
9:52
without it going up and down
9:54
dramatically I don't stress as much so
9:58
that's kind of My Philosophy right now
10:01
in a very non-eloquent way of saying it
10:04
it's amazing how fast time goes this is
10:08
totally off subject
10:09
I was at the gym today Listen to listen
10:12
to a band called Pennywise punk band
10:15
that I used to listen to a lot in the
10:16
90s and I still listen to them a lot
10:18
obviously you want something that's a
10:20
little more fast-paced or aggressive
10:22
when you're at the gym because when
10:23
you're lifting weights and
10:25
doing that kind of stuff you want to
10:26
have that energy you want to have that
10:28
energy kick
10:30
so yeah I realized that unknown Road
10:32
from Pennywise celebrating the 30th
10:35
Anniversary what in the name of heck 30
10:37
years ago
10:39
oh my gosh where does the time go I'm
10:42
gonna sit right here on this bench
10:47
and then I look back at stuff from like
10:47
2 000 that I'll be like look at stuff
10:49
online it's like oh that was a like last
10:50
year no it was 2019. it was 2020 2018.
10:54
in fact I am wearing this shirt right
10:56
here
10:58
that says this is when Disneyland was
11:01
not open in 2020 this was one of the
11:03
rare occasions that everyone got super
11:06
hyped including myself
11:08
to go to downtown Disney and go wait in
11:12
a line very distance out six feet in
11:15
front of everyone for a lengthy period
11:18
of time to look at Merchandise couldn't
11:20
go on a ride couldn't eat a snack
11:22
couldn't do any of that kind of stuff
11:24
but you could buy the specialty this is
11:26
the this is the 2020 Disneyland merch
11:30
when California
11:32
Disneyland
11:33
was not open there was no theme park
11:37
accessible only merch so I got that and
11:40
this just feels like last year what the
11:42
heck it was three and a half three years
11:44
that was three years ago three years
11:45
because 23. next year will be 24. three
11:49
this is like a little collectible item
11:51
right now or something
11:56
I used to always sit at the orange
11:56
circle
11:57
if they had a bench and I have a little
11:59
like sit and talks yeah so it says
12:01
celebration card right there
12:04
okay this is actually getting a little
12:06
bit better the farther down it goes
12:09
I kind of wish it had like the
12:10
frothiness on there just for like
12:12
appearances sake look at his shirt here
12:16
but probably don't need those uh those
12:18
wasted I have been counting calories
12:24
I'll have a couple cheat days here and
12:24
there I started the thin by Dragon Con
12:27
I don't know if I'm gonna be as thin as
12:30
I thought I was going to be because in
12:32
the past I have lost exorbitant amount
12:34
of weight in the in the past years ago
12:36
every year or two I'll do this wacky
12:39
thing where I go on the die but this is
12:40
the first time
12:41
where I have actually been eating
12:44
because sometimes I'll go on these fast
12:46
where I go a few days where I don't eat
12:48
it's not healthy I'm not working out I
12:50
basically just you know depriving myself
12:53
from eating and I lose the weight but I
12:55
gain it back really quickly so I'm
12:57
hoping this time
12:59
when I get on the scale in a few days I
13:02
don't think I'm gonna be at the point
13:03
where I am weighing what I thought I was
13:06
going to weigh however
13:08
because well for a few different reasons
13:10
because I have been eating but I have
13:12
been dropping a lot I'm starting to lose
13:13
my my tummy a little bit and I'm seeing
13:16
it in my face seeing it up here
13:19
in the chest section
13:22
but I'm also working out even though I
13:24
do a lot of cardio
13:25
I'm doing you know curls chest
13:29
each day at the gym you know switch
13:31
alternate back and forth so I am
13:33
building muscle which some had said I
13:36
don't know if there's any truth to this
13:37
but some have said that that actually
13:38
makes you gain weight
13:42
time will tell in a few days when I
13:43
weigh myself when I weigh myself
13:45
I'll know but I don't think I'm going to
13:47
be down to completely skinny by the time
13:51
the fin by Dragon Con challenge ends but
13:54
I'm pretty pretty content with myself
14:03
stay tuned
14:03
and I'm not gonna stop
14:06
I'm just going to keep going now I'm
14:08
curious to see if I can go till New
14:09
Year's what if I start off 2024
14:13
on it on a good foot on a good note good
14:15
note a good footnote a good foot or a
14:17
good note a good foot nope
14:20
or that
14:22
that that's starting to come back up I'm
14:24
starting to feel it here so what if
14:26
what if I just go past the 50 days don't
14:29
stop I have created The Habit
14:32
and just keep going I mean when I travel
14:34
I'm always staying in hotels that have
14:36
gyms
14:37
and if not I could just go to like a
14:39
Planet Fitness or something in town I
14:40
could keep the TR I could keep the
14:42
treadmill up feeling good have a lot
14:43
more energy
14:49
losing weight getting fit
14:49
what's to say you know
14:51
got four months till the end of the year
14:54
that's like I can be a completely
14:56
different person
14:57
than I was
15:00
in the beginning of this year
15:02
my my problem is
15:05
is that every time I've done one of
15:07
these crashed diets I'm not saying this
15:08
is a crash diet and handling it a little
15:10
bit differently
15:11
as I gain it all back because once I
15:13
start eating and I'm like you know what
15:15
I did I did my time on the tread I'm not
15:17
doing that anymore but now I actually
15:19
enjoy doing it because I get this street
15:21
going it's really just kind of time
15:23
management you know you devote yourself
15:25
give an hour to going to the gym also I
15:27
need a haircut I know may or may not be
15:29
getting a haircut
15:31
in the next couple of days probably
15:32
before I leave town I will I'll be
15:34
getting a haircut it's getting a little
15:36
frizzy
15:37
right there getting a little lengthy
15:39
it's hot also
15:41
shave today now watch
15:43
my luck tomorrow
15:46
or let's say a few days three or four
15:48
days from now Disney stock is gonna
15:50
Spike to like 300 to show you how do I
15:52
go sad trombone moment
15:54
I always forget I always remember back
15:55
there was a hurricane and all this
15:57
flooded out and the water level was to
16:00
right here so you got the lake over here
16:03
which was up a little bit but then you
16:04
also had a water level from the swamps
16:06
over here up here and I walked right up
16:08
there and there was a gator right by my
16:10
foot I was like holy cow there's a gator
16:12
right by my foot but I'm kind of like
16:14
well you kind of think about it so made
16:17
a little profit on the last sale a
16:19
couple years ago from the stock this one
16:21
I didn't lose anything so it's almost
16:23
like
16:24
I don't know if I'm set up for like the
16:25
gambling life like it's almost like when
16:27
I go to Vegas I there's been times I've
16:29
played the slots but I don't even really
16:30
gamble in Vegas anymore and I kind of
16:32
wonder if I should even be doing the
16:34
stock market at all so I don't know
16:36
maybe maybe I just won't do it anymore
16:37
and I'll find other Investments that
16:39
aren't so risky and not so stressful
16:41
kind of looking at it like let's just
16:42
say here let's say you're
16:44
playing some slots put a hundred dollars
16:46
but you put ten dollars in you win a
16:48
hundred dollars you cash it out 100
16:49
bucks you go back you have that ten
16:52
dollars it gets up to thirty dollars and
16:54
then it goes back down to twenty then it
16:56
goes up to 50. then it goes down to 20.
16:58
back to ten you haven't lost anything
17:01
so you just you just pull pull it out
17:03
that's kind of what
17:05
that's kind of what I'm looking at now
17:06
it's kind of the thought process I'm
17:09
going with all right that's enough of me
17:10
trying to explain it not making a whole
17:13
lot of sense maybe I am
17:14
please do not feed the wildlife please
17:16
keep the area clean
17:20
fountains on over there I really love
17:22
living in celebration I'm always tempted
17:25
to move somewhere else always
17:27
I travel I go somewhere I'm like oh this
17:29
would be a great place to live and we're
17:30
just looking up houses I'm always
17:31
looking up Apartments I'm always looking
17:32
up condos I'm never satisfied being in
17:34
one place
17:35
even though I'm rarely ever here
17:38
in reality I probably should stay here
17:40
for a while
17:41
I don't know what the heck I'm gonna do
17:43
I'm just all over the place I buy stock
17:45
I sell stock I say I'm never going to do
17:47
it again that I buy more stock and I
17:49
sell the stock I say I'm not going to do
17:51
something that I turn around and do
17:52
something
17:54
yeah I don't know I suppose I just
17:56
wouldn't be myself if I was any other
17:58
way that's just me
18:10
I'm really surprised that these shades
18:10
have lasted as long these have lasted a
18:13
while they're all bent they're crooked
18:14
they're not working correctly they're
18:16
just barely on
18:18
but I just can't seem to to break them
18:20
or lose them yeah not a whole heck of a
18:23
lot happened on this episode but I
18:25
wanted to get the news out there
18:28
because I did publicize heavily but I
18:32
had bought stock and it went up and now
18:33
it's going down and I'm sure people were
18:35
wondering like oh dang Adam's going to
18:37
lose his tail well I didn't but I am not
18:42
yeah I've just pretty much broke even I
18:43
lost a little bit like I said I lost
18:45
about probably 50 cents a share
18:48
but I could live with that just to kind
18:50
of cut it clean
18:52
so I tried the coffee
18:54
I tried the little
18:56
the
18:57
less sugary version from the pumpkin
19:00
spice latte it's pretty good
19:02
and I walked around the lake
19:04
I'm going to be leaving town at the end
19:06
of the month keep telling myself I
19:07
should probably take a day off one or
19:09
two days off
19:10
to just get some things done recoup get
19:13
my mind together because once I leave I
19:16
am going to be gone for like at least
19:18
seven weeks
19:19
before coming back to Celebration
19:22
so if I was going to take a day off now
19:24
would be the time to do it because I do
19:25
not like taking time off on the road
19:27
ever
19:27
if I'm on the road and I'm traveling I
19:30
don't want to ever I'd ever miss a die
19:32
I can't even tell you the last time I
19:33
missed a die
19:35
and I got I got a real problem a lot of
19:37
chlorine in that right now I can smell
19:39
the chlorine
19:41
very chlorinated I mean it always has
19:43
chlorine but now it's like it's like
19:44
overly
19:46
chlorinated they're really getting the
19:48
chlorine flowing
19:54
it has been nice being around for the
19:54
last few days though
19:55
I was gone for five and a half weeks and
19:57
I was back a week and I was gone for
19:59
three and a half weeks and I was back
20:01
and now I'm back until the end of this
20:03
month
20:08
no sign of cool though sometimes cool
20:08
will be out in full force and other
20:09
times
20:10
no cool
20:12
probably getting a pumpkin spice latte
20:15
over there now that I think about it
20:17
the Baristas I don't know they might
20:20
like Gators
20:22
and that's going to do it for today
20:25
from celebration first Water Street
20:28
then Market Street then Starbucks for a
20:31
pumpkin spice latte then walking around
20:33
like Ryan Harden now ending that's
20:36
Savannah Square
20:39
