Hour 1: Gen Z Is Moving Money From Stocks to Sports Bets

This is the G and Ursula Show with G. Scott and Ursula Roy team. Hey, good morning, everybody. It is fresh Fridays here on the G. and Ursula show. It's Flex Fridays on the G. and Ursula show. And it's Blue Friday all over the world if you are a Seahawk fan and a 12. Good morning, Ursula. Good morning. You sound like you were in an excellent mood today. You had a fantastic day yesterday it looked like. I did. It was great. I hope we hear a little bit about that because there is a big game this weekend. Big game. Dallas Cowboys coming to town. First preseason game of the season. Here we go. I want to just say August 14th, where has the summer gone? Mm-hmm. Too crazy. Hey, Gen Z, did you hear about this? What would they do now? A lot of them are moving money from stocks to sports betting, and they're counting on wins there for their future. So at 930, I'll tell you why I think this is one of the most alarming stories that we're going to have all morning. Right. Munkleshoot Casino and Resort text line 888-973-5476, AAA 973, Cairo. Let's get to it. Top stories today brought to you by Pittergass Law. And we're learning now that Seattle had significantly fewer police officers assigned to this year's bite of Seattle than it did last year. The Seattle Times is reporting that SPD staffing for the three-day festival fell from 166 officers and supervisors in 2025 to only 121 this year, which was a drop of more than 27%. And on the Sunday of the shooting, 39 officers and supervisors were assigned to the bite that is compared with 50 last year. even though attendance was about the same. Now, that doesn't mean more officers would have prevented what happened. In fact, officers were reportedly within about 100 feet when the gunfire erupted, and we had council member Bob Kettle on the show with us this week, and he says their response deserves recognition. The initial operation was like almost textbook. I mean, in terms of the initial response, taking out the shooter without a shot fired, that was unbelievable. But, gee, I think this adds another important question to the investigation into what went wrong that day. SPD, of course, decides how many officers are assigned to an event, but the department has not yet said who made the decision to reduce staffing or why. And so council members are asking for an after-action review to determine whether it was adequately staffed. Well. What's the definition of adequate? And I think that is the determiner. Are you basing, is anyone basing adequate staffing on what they did previous? And because of what they did previous, nothing happened. So someone says, hey, it needs to be 50. So if this year it was 39, last year it was 50, well, something happened. We need to find out why that there was only 39.

I'm comfortable with people finding out why, no doubt. And I like how you ended off with this conversation is, to me, the most important part of the story that happened at the bite is SPD, law enforcement, first responders did an amazing job. Period. Point blank. Again, we can sit here and find out about timelines on press conferences. We could find out why there was only 39 that were staffed during that time as compared to the year before. We can find out all those answers. But while we do, no matter what answer you come up with, just remember two things. One, SPD, first responders were amazing that day. Two. We don't know what amount of staffing would have been possible and there to prevent what happened at the bite that day. Exactly. And I have actually been talking to sources inside SPD who say a lot of officers were taking vacation because they'd worked massive overtime during the World Cup. I've also heard there are, and this is not confirmed yet, but that there are veteran officers who are nearing retirement who are burning through accumulated leave before they go. And as you said, none of that excuses anything. the officers who were at the bike responded as well as you can imagine. But it could potentially speak to what is happening within the department and whether they are just stretched incredibly thin. To your point about what could have prevented this, experts say there's no such thing as a completely safe public. festival in the United States because in this country, guns are the leading cause of death for children and teens. And she was actually looking into that because I was like, how much of an outlier are we? Are we an outlier? But if you look at it, in other wealthy countries like ours, guns are nowhere near the top causes of death for kids. So here we are number one in countries like Britain, Japan, Germany, Netherlands, firearm deaths rank outside of the top 10. And that is something that former King County Sheriff Sue Rar brought up on our show. It's like we're focusing so much on all these other things instead of... What are we doing to prevent gun violence among kids? We often try to talk a lot about the prevention things. And this is why sometimes I'm not very popular out here. Because for some reason, I battle back and forth about.

these discussions, about funding programs, about helping single moms with family, about helping families that are disadvantaged, about helping marginalized, about helping marginalized, about helping and having more shelter. Like, it goes on and on and on, right? About help with people that aren't making high enough wages. About help with student loan debts. I mean, we can keep going. This fight. that we continue to have about the prevention. And then when things happen, we want to talk about why this keeps happening. And Surar, who has been in this profession, gets on and says, we don't talk enough about the prevention. One day, hopefully we will get to that, and maybe a little by little, people are starting to understand. But a lot of the decision makers that we have, a lot of people, even that do our jobs. These are folks where their life is fine. Everything's great. Their family's great. They might not have any type of relatability to these problems that persist in these low-income neighborhoods. So one day, if we can get more of the people that are impacted by crime and hear their voices, more of that, then the people that are scared of crime and just want to just use crime to build their platform or those things, then maybe we'll start to get better. Washington's new income tax on high earners could bring in a lot more money than lawmakers initially thought. So there's a new state analysis that it estimates the tax would raise about $3.1 billion in its first budget cycle, which is about $400 million more than the state was counting on. And the number of households expected to pay. That tax has grown from about 21,000 to 25,000. Again, the tax is 9.9% on wage income above $1 million a year. It's supposed to take effect in 2028, but voters will get the final say this November initiative 645 would repeal it before it ever takes effect. And supporters of the tax say this higher revenue that they're unveiling right now could help close the state's next budget gap. But opponents say this estimate assumes that. that high earners are not going to change their behavior or just leave the state because of this tax. Yeah. Hey, Ursula, I'm going to make this fast and I'm not going to. I've made the decision to not debate whether or not there should or should not be. a millionaire's tax. So instead, I just want to highlight what this says. This is basically saying, oh, my goodness, there's actually more money that would come in if this tax were to happen. Do you say 21? Do you say 25,000? So how many people is in Washington State? 7 million. So this would impact 25,000. I wish we can get somebody on the show. Anyway.

So this is an opportunity to fund mental health services, an opportunity to a fund addiction treatment, job training, child care, housing assistance, more into that, more into that prevention stuff that we talked about. This is an opportunity for that. Now, I think two things can happen. One, let's celebrate, I want to celebrate the opportunity to fund those things. And two, they need way more strict. audit on what that money is being spent for. Thank you. Yeah. And I guess call me a skeptic about the timing of this new revenue estimate because the November election is just around the corner. A yes vote on initiative 645 would repeal a tax. So now we're being told this millionaire tax is going to hit more households and bring in hundreds of millions more than originally projected. And While like you, I believe that people should pay their fair share in taxes, my problem has been and will continue to be what lawmakers didn't put into the law. Again, I will repeat, there should have been a safeguard preventing future legislatures from lowering that million dollar threshold. Governor Ferguson promises it won't happen under his watch, but governors change. Legislatures change. And the Democrats had the opportunity to write that protection in the bill, and they chose not to. I am not just shrugging at the fact that... Two former Democratic governors, Christine Gregor and Gary Locke, have pointed out that the state operating budget has gone from 33 billion. This is Gregor, from when she left office to nearly 80 billion today. And yes, there was inflation and other things that have gone into it. But still, the point is, like you said. Are we spending the money properly? And then finally, honestly, gee, I don't know that it's going to survive the constitutional challenge. Well, I just want to just say, like, when we bring up what past governors said, they also didn't have the budget. They didn't have the things that are in place today. They didn't even have the McKinney Vento Homelessness Assistant Act during that time. So there's a lot of ways that that numbers kind of skewed. I will say this. The one thing that I want to see going forward, and maybe there are some electives that listen to our show, I have a new idea. And I think what happens is this. We need to be able to measure what we're doing. So instead of just talking about, hey, we spend $100 million, hey, we spend $150 million. Done. We don't want to hear care. At least we want to hear how much you spent, but we want to hear the result. We want to know how many people got treatment. How many kids graduated? How many families had to get to become stable? How many people got off the streets from living off the streets? How many people got diverted from the criminal justice system? So going forward.

That's what I want to hear. Me personally, I want to hear those numbers. I don't care. You spent 100 million? We spent the hundred million. In 2006, this many people, this many families were helped. In 2007, this many families were helped compared to 2024. Then people can say, oh, it's working. You had a 25% increase, right, and kids graduating. You had a 25% increase in families becoming stable. So let's not just do the money. We're going to do the money. And we're going to do the results. Everybody wants the result. We want to see the results. I love it. Okay. You've also seen this headline. Washington now has the third highest gas prices in the country behind only California and Hawaii. AAA saying that the statewide average is now about $5.16 a gallon that's up more than 18 cents from a month ago. About... $1.9 above the national average. In the Seattle area, drivers are paying even more, about $5.35 a gallon. And there is a big difference, though, depending on where you fill up. San Juan County, of course, averages nearly $6 a gallon. But while at the same time, Assotan County is closer to $4.60, that's in southeastern part of the state. Yeah, these prices suck. These gas prices suck. I ain't making this political. I'm just telling you right now. And I was thinking about this topic this morning. I said, how am I going to talk about it a different way? I'm going to talk about it like this. Truth be told, the gas prices, I don't even think one minute when I go to the gas pump. Oh, I do. Okay, let me just say this. I don't think for a minute when it comes to the gas pump for me. As a matter of fact, I don't say things like, you know what? I don't know if we can go downtown because I got to figure out my gas, right? I do not make life decisions when I'm at the gas pump. But I did in one time make life decisions at the gas pump. So I'm going to say this. This high gas tax for the CCA sucks. All this gas has 25% nationally on the national level. It's up 25%. This war that we're in right now with Iran 250 days sucks. All of it sucks. A lot of the families right there that are struggling right now. There are families right now where an extra $15 to $20 every single time matters. There's going to be kids that can't play sports. There's kids that can't do activities. Why? Because gas prices got up. Grocery prices have gone up. I'm going to say this. Simple point blank. It ain't political. These gas prices suck. Period. Point blank. I don't even need to add. Yeah, gee. Keep it up. Okay, let's talk about the Seahawks. They're taking a chance now on former first round cornerback, Terry and Arnold. Yes. The Seattle Times is reporting that the hawks have agreed to a one-year deal with him after what coach Mike McDonald called a great tryout. He was the 24th overall pick in the 2024 draft, but Detroit released him in June after he was charged with eight felonies tied to an alleged kidnapping and robbery plot in Florida.

I don't have a ton of details on this and maybe you can fill in, but prosecutors are accusing him of helping orchestrate the beating, kidnapping, and armed robbery of three men that he wrongly believed had stolen from him. He has pleaded not guilty and he is currently free on a $1 million bond and he can play. But the NFL could still place him on the commissioner's exempt list. Yeah, he will be. Yeah. You want to give your thoughts first? Yeah. I'll do it. Go ahead. This bothers me. It feels like the quest to be a winner is more important than anything else. While I understand that Seahawks think this is an opportunity, since he doesn't cost that much, right? I think that it's a risk to take on something like this where he's got some pending very serious charges. And, I mean, is he that good? Is it all about winning? Those are the questions that I have. Fair. Let me start off this because, you know, I got to make sure I get it the right way. You're in a difficult position. For sure. All right. Let me go ahead. Here we go. When it comes to the Seahawks, I trust John Snyder. John Snyder is the same GM that's been here for 16 years. He's the same GM that has brought this team Super Bowls, and he has really made most of us in this city, most 12s, very proud. of this team. He's been doing this a long time, Ursula. He has access to information that I don't have. We don't have. He can talk to the player, the player's families, the representatives, investigators, people around this entire situation. So if John Snyder and the Seahawks are comfortable with moving forward, bringing them in, if they like it, I love it. I'm in. But here's what I'm wrestling with. Here's the part where Ursula, I kind of said to you this morning, I said, there's something I want to talk about. I want to talk about how life constantly reminds us that everybody doesn't get treated the same. Oh, yeah. Sometimes the rules aren't necessarily different. But people's willingness to make an exception can be. Let's be real, y'all. Value, talent, matter more than we want to accept and admit. What you can do for others matters. Let me say it again. What you can do for others matters. That's everyday life that goes for family, friends, corporate America, not just football. But sometimes a person's situation gets labeled a deal breaker. while somebody else's gets met with, well, let's see. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. So here's the part worth discussing, and you guys can have it from here. I think Terry and Arnold deserves an opportunity. Maybe the lesson isn't, why did the Seahawks sign him? Why did they give him a chance? The lesson is, are we willing to give the same patience?

due process and grace to somebody who can't help us win. When is a friend, when as a family member, when is a football team. That's the question. And I think it's a great question and I think the answer is no. I mean, I think the answer is no. And so I guess my question again is, is this the right thing? Is this the right move? I mean, I understand it. I understand the idea of, hey, you know, maybe he can help us out and he doesn't cost that much. Maybe he doesn't get convicted, you know, and I guess that would be the gamble, but I guess my question is why now? Text us. Munkleshoot Casino orders her at Textline. But would you agree that in life, in real life, for sure. People will be friends with this person because they got money. Or they'll be friends with this person because they have a, you know, a status. Or they're well-known. Oh, they're well-known. Or in a regular job, corporate America will allow this employee to do whatever the hell he won't. Because he brings in the money. He brings in the money. But this other person made a mistake just like this one, but he didn't get the same grace. Yep. All right. Oh, yeah. Okay, Russell. Couchy and them, they tripping.

They're tripping. Well, you know who else is tripping? Too many members of Gen Z. They tripping? Yeah. Like, what up with the moving your money from stocks to sports betting? Wow.

Transportation analytics company InRicks says in 2023, drivers in the Seattle area spent 63 hours stuck in traffic. That's up 9% from the 58 hours they were in congestion the year before. Seattle traffic is the 10th worst in the country, according to these new numbers, New York and Chicago are numbers 1 and 2. You can subscribe to podcasts at My Northwest. com.

It is 934. You're listening to the G and Ursula show. And coming up at 947, it is Flex Fridays. And it is also a fresh Friday. So we are going to be talking about a couple of things, including something that I realized about myself as I was working out last night. And you're going to have to help me out, G. Okay. But right now, let's talk about this new thing that we're seeing regarding... Gen Z investors, more than half of Gen Z investors say they have taken money that they intended to invest and they've put that money into sports betting instead. What could possibly go wrong? And for a surprising number of these folks, this isn't to entertainment. It is part of their financial plan. Bloomberg is reporting that there's this new survey that found 26% of Gen Z investors consider sports betting a deliberate, ongoing part of their long-term wealth strategy, and compare that with 14% of millennials. 6% of Gen X and just 1% of baby boomers. But there was one 32-year-old who told Bloomberg that he approaches gambling the way he approaches investing. He researches his bets. He limits how much he wagers and he believes he's smarter about it than the average gambler. And he claims that he's made about $2,500 this year. Putting it simply the CEO of this company that did the survey says when a sports book starts feeling like a retirement strategy, something has gone sideways. Yeah. You guys know how I feel about sports gambling, Kalsi and all this stuff. But Ursula, the setup for our younger generation is so bad. It is. The fact that they allowed and let Robin Hood, Robin Hood is a platform where you, by the way, I'm popular with Robin Hood. I love Robin Hood. I did love Robin Hood until they allowed you to buy stocks in the same place that they also allow you to make and gamble in prediction markets. Like to do it at the same time. So here you got your Roth IRAs that's hanging out right there, Ursula. You've got your stock portfolio. And then at the bottom of the page, you have an opportunity for prediction markets. And the thing that sucks is TikTok and Instagram. You got people to get on there and say, hey, look, everybody, I turned this $50 into $5,000, right? And so you got everybody and all of us. And I've been guilty of this. We want the right now, right? Yes, quick. Get rich scheme. It's boring to say, oh, gee, so you just put $50 on that stock and... Let it grow. And in six months, it's only worth $58. Duh, ha, ha, jokes on you, right? And by the way, I'm going to tell you, because I know we got some youngsters that listen, truthfully. If it's fast, it's no good.

If it's slow and boring, that's what you won't. Well, if it's fast, it can also go away fast. And that is the thing about gambling. The house always has the edge. Yep. When someone tells me, I made $2,500 this year, I don't believe it. Like, what went in? Or if you made $2,500, that's not going to be something that is sustainable. Again, over time, chances are you're going to lose. And you have to be, if you're going to bet it, you're going to have to be willing to lose it. And you know what happens, Ursula? I don't know if you guys have gotten met with this, but I've gotten met with, well, if you're in the stock market, that's still gambling. Right. You're essentially gambling on that, which technically you're right. It is technically a gamble. You're putting your, you believe that this company, this program or whatever is going to be worth X amount. I'm going to invest in this and it's going to be good. But the problem is, is that. Of the two, one has a track record. Mm-hmm. Right? The Dow, the S&P 500, literally has a track record. I don't have to do it for you. Don't take my opinion. Go look it up for yourself. Now, now go and look up the track record for Kaushi. Go ahead. Go look that up. How long's Kalshi been around? So that's the problem that I have with all of this. And by the way, I'm not even blaming Gen Z and 50% of them. It's not their fault. Sometimes you've got to protect them for themselves. It's like the opioid epidemic. It's like a lot of the epidemics that we have had. Yeah, it speaks to a couple of things. One is they're looking for that get rich quickly scheme. And I would just argue that it's probably a get poor quickly scheme. There is no compounding when it comes to it. You get paid out your sports bet and that's it. When you're talking about the investments in stock or whatever it is, I mean, like even in a 401K, I mean, it's broken down in a way that you can kind of. be more safe about it than, you know, risky. And it depends on where you are in your life and what your, what kind of risk you're willing to take. But none of that is available when it comes to sports betting. You mentioned Kaushi. Kauci has now been ordered to shut down most of its operations here by September 2nd or face penalties of $120,000 a day. And you know, I like what you said. You said, or I don't like what you said. You said most. Not all. No. Most. That means there's a little bit of stuff right there. It's like, hey, I got roaches. Okay, I'm going to come and I'm going to get rid of most of your roaches. No, player. I need you get rid all these roaches. Not most? Because the little that's left is going to do some damage. Yes. And you know there are going to be ways to find loopholes in all of this. Yeah. Yeah.

By the way, for those of us in our audience who aren't quite familiar with Kalshi, I just wanted to give you a little sound from Nick Brown, the Attorney General, who joined us a few weeks ago and told us a little bit more about their operations. What Kalsi does is not just sports gambling. On Kalsh, you can bet on the number of measles cases. That will there will be the number of hospitalizations. You can currently bet on Kalshi about the extent of wildfire damage. You can bet on the length of the president's press conference. We saw the president of the United States, his camera person, the teleprompter person, was placing bets on the length of the speeches, the content of speeches. It is so fraught with corruption on a daily basis. And there are people in the White House who are connected to these businesses. You know what's weird? I mean, and thank you for that sound bite. We talk about the drug epidemic. We talk about a lot of epidemics. We have not talked about this country's gambling epidemic. Yeah. Except for on the show. You know, this is a, maybe we can bring this up later on the day. And I just want to tell you, I kind of mentioned it to you the other day when I was leaving. And I actually been thinking about it a lot. And yeah, while I sit here and harp on people with this gambling addiction and sports addiction, I'm kind of a hypocrite. And what I mean by being a hypocrite? Because, you know, in this world, I would say that there's three things that really drives us. Number one, our health, right? That drives us. Number two is love. That drives us. Number three is money that drives us. And you know what I learned? And you know what I feel like about all three because of this rat race we live in? Health? Never satisfied. Like I've never seen anybody look at themselves in the mirror or look at their blood pressure numbers and be like, yes, I am right where I need to be. Nobody does that. I've never seen anybody and just when it comes to love, like you get your love, but you're upset because that one friend group didn't invite you to a barbecue. Like we never satisfied on love. And then when it comes to money, I said something to you and we're giving me to leave and I'm a problem. I'm a problem because I have figured out that there's literally no amount of money that makes you happy. And so while I sit here and talk about Gen Z and they're gambling, look, they just try to get some money. And they try to get more money. And they're more money. Well, I mean, this is the generation that's having a harder time, you know. buying a house. But it's going to be even harder. If they buy a house, guess what? They want two. They won't fall? I don't know. I, myself, I got to get better. I really do. All right, good stuff. Coming up here on the next, on the Jan Ursula. Flex Fridays, I got to say that word the right way. And then also more than half of the workers would take a pay cut for job security. Would you do it next? Gene Arsler.

Tuesdays and Thursdays on Seattle's Morning News. Hey, good morning, everybody. It is the G and Ursula Show. We do have a guest at 10 o'clock. General Barry McCaffrey, he's going to come on, and he's going to weigh in on the conditions aboard the USS Lincoln. So that's going to be talked about. As you all know, they've been out there for 250-plus days. He joins us at 10 o'clock. But right now, you know what day it is. It is Flex Fridays. And on Flex Fridays, it's really important that we talk about it. Here we go.

I woke up this morning. And I said to myself, loving you is the most important thing in the world. It is Flex Fridays right here on the Gene Ursula show. Ursula, go ahead and check in with us and tell us what's happening on Flex Fridays. By the way, you all texting in. Somebody just texted in instead of been working out all week. I know, which is so awesome. Now, I haven't been working out all week, but I did work out twice this week, which I said I was going to do more than the one week, one time a week that my doctor said I needed to promise. So I did go twice. And I also went to the pool. Now, I got to. I'm going to sound like I'm calling myself old and I don't think of myself as old, but my knees are feeling old. And I don't know if me getting a trainer, because that's what I plan to do this fall, getting a trainer to work with him, I'm kind of scared that my knees may need some help. Okay. So I don't know. What do you do? You don't need a trainer. I don't need a trainer. No. I just feel like I'm a little bit clueless with the weights. I'm going to tell you exactly what you can do to get started. Make it a goal. Air squats. Simple air squats. And that's just hands in the air out there and you bend down air squats. Like you just don't care. And air squats and have your butt get to the point where it's like it's on a toilet and then squat back up. And so the reason. I mean, that's easy for a lot of people. And it's not so easy for some. Okay. But so you do reps of X amount. Yeah. So let's just say, okay, I'm going to do four sets of 10, right? And you're doing that. As we get older, working out our legs is probably the most important part of the body. Right. So that is kind of finding that out. So. Those out there. And the reason why I started off with air squats, because I don't want people to think they have to go in there and get in the gym and then put on big old 225 pounds and do some back squats and then go over and do some hack squats and everything. So you start with air squats. And then after that, you might get to start with some five pound dumbbells. And you're doing those same air squats that you're doing. Now you've got the five pound dumbbells. And then you're like, oh, gee, this is getting too easy. Good. So if it's getting too easy, you can continue to just do that. A lot of times we just don't even do that. Just a simple air squat or a simple get down on our knees and just getting right back up. Just simple. Yeah. He's doing it right now. Okay. Yeah, you did that with ease. I don't know that I'm going to try that at the moment. By the way, I work out every single day. Yeah. And I felt that. Right? That's what I mean. It's like, it's not a lot of things you have to do. You just got to do something. Yes. And so I'm trying. So thanks to you and what we're doing, I'm trying to be as accountable as possible. So I'm trying to do what I can. And I told you guys this morning, I need to step it up even more.

And then also on the treadmill, if it's your gym, they have a treadmill? Yes. Oh, that I did. Mark and I were side by side on the treadmill yesterday. You don't have, I don't run on a treadmill anymore. I think it's bad for hips and joints. 3.5. Oh, you do? Speed, 3.4.5? Yeah. That's good. Is that good? Okay. That's good. Now, do you do a little incline? A little. Not a ton. I'm, yeah. We'll gradually go up. Yes. That's it. I'm just telling you, like, just little things just to just kind of tweak it. See, that's great. That's great. I think sometimes people get so intimidated. They think, oh, I got to do legs. I got to look on Instagram and see what I saw.
