Really? >> I didn't think >> You didn't see this? >> I didn't think Hispanic with his Hispanic was that bad. >> I thought it would be honestly the other way around. I thought white husband with an Asian wife would be the very highest. >> Yeah, that would make sense >> cuz that's like Mark Zuckerberg, right? >> Sure. Yeah. It's every rich It's like all the rich like white guys that you see. No, but you know this might be like one of those weird things that takes averages and then when you put a couple

7:33 of them Chinese billionaires in there and then you're like you guys ████ up the average for the whole >> the whales. The whales we know they're married though.

Yeah. >> Yeah, >> that's true. >> Yeah. Might be immigrant. >> Yeah. What is the reason for that? >> Maybe it's because when you're dating within your own culture, it's easier to like hide money and funds. Oh, so you think most these people are the launderers that I don't know cuz Asian Asian is like, "Hey, we're not going to talk about this money." >> Or maybe they're just complacent and they're happy and then they're just like, "Oh, we like our little lifestyle."

There. >> Look at us. Look at us with get out eyes. >> Yeah. You order a angel shot. >> Start plucking the cotton out of the ████ chair right there. [laughter] >> You got it. >> Well, that's our chart. Let us know if you disagree or agree with this chart I made. [laughter] Tried to be very fair. But, uh, yeah, if you want to check it out. It's US Census Bureau 2024.
