Don’t buy a house for your kids. Buy it for you. The kids will adapt. I grew up in a 1200 square-foot house with two brothers, and a mom and dad. We had one bathroom, and no air conditioning. Mom had three dishwashers. My two brothers and me. The 60s and 70s were a simpler time. A pool…lol. We had a sprinkler hooked to a garden hose. Do not live beyond your means.
This is great advice. Thinking that the next biggest house or vehicle will make you happy is foolishness Learn to be happy with what you have. Save and prepare for the future..the economy is about to take a major dump. There is just a bad feeling in the air. Making any major financial commitments (debt) now ..in my view is not wise.
I agree bro. I grew up the same way, 1100 square foot, 2 brothers, shared bed room and bathroom. I didn’t feel underprivileged. It’s what you get use too. I now raise my daughter in a much larger home and I feel like I shouldn’t because it’s not needed and worry she may feel she needs something the same size when she has kids.
If you have to sell this Tundra just to get approved, chances are you are stretching too far in a very volatile market. Tread with care, Learn to be happy without purchases…only advice I can give you. Houses and cars never fulfill dreams, they are just tools. Anytime I want to make expensive purchases. I try to step back and imagine it’s my sister or a friend and analyze the situation from a third-party perspective.
You’re absolutely right. Getting into the house without selling is possible but we’d be scraping by for sure. House rich, bank broke. No denying it’ll be a stretch but worth a shot nonetheless… if it happens it happens, if not. All good! We’ll continue to enjoy the beautiful home we have (and are grateful for I promise). =]
I don't know, I have a few older sports cars that I always wanted and finally got them years ago. They make me pretty happy, especially when I drive them. But yeah, being in constant debt for the newest shiny model would not be very fulfilling to me.
@@UntamedMotors only you and your wife know your finances best. At least you aren’t trying to be both house AND car poor like the majority of the country :)
@@user-ek5nl1jc4b I have a Genesis g70 3.3tt prestige. MSRP was 57k and guess what? After this lease ends I’m getting a base model Subaru crosstrek for 24k. I’m sick of bills. Going on 30 years old and realizing having all the bells and whistles doesn’t matter anymore 🤷♂️
Hear my story: I don’t normally comment on videos, but I would like to give some suggestions being someone just sold my dream house and downsize to a smaller house with my family. One lesson I learned is it’s about amount of laughs than the sqft of the house. Back in 2022, my wife and I built our dream house on 10 acre wooded land, the mortgage was double than our previous house. After we move in, we argued more, I had less time with kids cuz I had to work more. ONE day, I realized the better “LIFE” I provided to my kids isn’t something that they even wanted. They wanted dad to spend more time and take them more to park, they don’t care about sqft, location. This year, we sold it and downsized to a half size sqft and mortgage house. We can’t be more happier. TRUST ME, unless your income is 10X of your new mortgage, you will be struggling financially.
Doses being happy mean sitting still and driving the same car forever living in the same house forever? Can’t I love our current house but also pursue something else if it means providing an even better life for my family? Wanting to improve doesn’t mean I’m not content.
@UntamedMotors better life how? By giving them a bigger home, stretching your finances thin, then putting the burden of them taking care of you when you're old because you couldn't keep a car for more than 5 years before deciding to start over on a new car? You'll sell the truck now, buy it again next year, then the cycle starts all over for you.
And you bought that PlayStation or first car and were happy forever. Yeah happiness is fleeting. It’s why we as a species survived to keep pushing forward to bigger and better pastures. Ask the single celled amoebas if it’s fun floating in the ocean or evolving into humans to explore. Create. Adventure. . .
Is it a need or a want? I think your home you are currently living is perfectly fine. I wouldn’t sell it. You can always upgrade your home when you are ready. Not when you stretching to look better on paper. That’s my best advice.
As a middle aged man who has overextended in the past…less debt will bring you more happiness than a bigger house…less debt often means more free time. More free time with your family FAR outweighs a nicer home or nicer anything really. Time and love is THE BIGGEST gift you will give them…that’s what they will remember in 20 years…not the house or the vehicles. God bless😀
As another middle aged man I couldn't agree more with you my friend. Just keep your house and enjoy a mortgage that dosnt stretch you to the point that all you do is work and not enjoy time with your family. 10 years from now you will regret missing all that time with your family because you had to work to pay for a huge house
I 100% agree. We over extended on our house when we got married… but we have been here 29 years… not upgrading. Also we still have a gravel driveway. However I would not sacrifice any of our family vacations (or two) to have a nice concrete driveway or new kitchen etc.
Don’t do it! Selling the Tundra is financial suicide. Often what you want is not what you need. You have a beautiful home stay in it. A bigger home will only bring emptiness. Just an old soul speaking. Like Waylon said This successful life we’re living got us……
Those kids won’t care about that dream house….thats for you or the wife, be honest. Just be still and enjoy what you have because trust me they’ll be grown and gone sooner than you think and then it’ll be just you and the wife in a big ridiculous “dream house”
You’re right. They’ll be happy anywhere. =] I know we don’t “need” it… and we’ll continue to be very happy and grateful with the house we have and worked hard to build out and improve. This other house is what I always envisioned for my family. No sense in buying the dream house when we’re old and the kids have all moved on with their own lives around the nation. =]
@@UntamedMotorsif you would want to sell the bed cap how much would you want? And would shipping be a thing? I've been looking at getting the exact one for my lunar rock pro for a while now.
Been a long time watcher and supporter. Bro I think you need to seek some help man. This is not normal behavior. I say this with best intentions. Will still be a viewer! Along for you wild ride
Haha yeah that ship has sailed. 😉 In all seriousness, we were plenty happy and just fine a few days ago. Offer came in and now we’re giving it our best go. We have the means to buy the new house without selling the truck, I’d just like to have a larger cushion as we make the move is all. I wouldn’t do it if it didn’t make sense for my family.
Don't get too far out over your skies with a house. The only thing your kids need to be happy is your love! I suspect the new house is your want, the kids won't care. Financial strain is hard on the whole family. Remember that you can't get ahead financially in this world until you get to zero. The longer you take to get there the harder everything is in life.
Firstly, you can do what you want, and I don't know all the details of your situation. What I do know is the key to happiness in life is to be content with what you have, and be very measured about the debt you take on. There will always be a hill with grass that looks greener, and it isn't always the case. You have a beautiful home, a great family, and a car you enjoy and have a passion for. I don't know man.
If that was the case so u still have the Nintendo growing up and play on it while people game on Xbox’s ? What about the first car you had. Surely you could have kept fixing it yourself for cheaper and got the 2 million mile club by now because who needs new cars? Life is to be enjoyed. And yes I see you’re cautious. Dude obviously is disciplined enough to manage his family that large. Most can’t even afford one kid.. he has the training of military and has that work ethic and discipline and drive to do what needs to be done He’ll be alright
@@ssing7113 debt makes us all slaves. I'm sure he'll be fine, but the idea of stretching to afford "our dream home" is a bit crazy to me because they'll always be something else that's a little bit better.
Debt sucks, stretching yourself sounds scary. We bought our home well below 50% of what we were pre approved for back in 2012. Our goal is to have this home paid off in 3 years or less. Honestly you may want to sit down and take time to think about this. It's your decision but being debt free is a huge relief. I just may be getting old though at 44.
Society by Eddie Vedder came to mind while watching this. While it’s certainly exciting thinking about a dream house, it’s not the house or the pool your kids will remember from their childhood. It’s the short trips to Sonic, impromptu weekend getaways, and deep belly laughs. Certainly an outside looking in scenario, but you guys have a beautiful home, reliable transportation, and a great view. To give any of that away for a larger or fancier house doesn’t always equal more happiness. Wish you the best in whatever decision you make man.
Young people expect to have their dream homes way too soon in life. They get stretched out and then get tight with finances. Money problems break up more marriages than anything else Learn to be content with what you have and can afford
I understand there’s no way for me to present this without some people taking it the wrong way. That’s okay. Fact is we are plenty happy with what we have. Just worth giving it a shot as I know it’d be an amazing home for my growing family.
Good advice. Kids either low IQ stupid, or purely irresponsible. EVERY U.S man/women/child currently owes 103,000 in government debt, that's over and on top of what they currently owe in personal debt. like it or not, that's gotta be paid back one day.
says the guy who could buy his first house for almost nothing lol....... try being under 30 in this screwed up world and economy your generation created.
@@UntamedMotors It's not worth the shot. You already have someone else's "dream home." I don't have a mortgage anymore - thankfully - but I also don't have a "dream home". In return, I can take my family anywhere and make amazing memories that we get to, and do, talk about all the time.... we can take our kids friends on vacations which is even more of a blessing for us, our kids, and our kid's friends. You have your dream house. it's not worth the shot.
The need for Americans to live in McMansions is ridiculous. The average house in the 50’s was like 1,000 sq ft. Kids shared bedrooms. Families watched ONE tv. Families were closer. And people were overall happier. I’m not saying you shouldn’t strive for something better. But better is a never ending road.
Aloha Untamed I’m super excited for you and your family. I hope it the deal works out for you all. I’m curious how much you’d sell the truck for if you sold your house? I’m in Maui, Hawaii and have been looking for a truck for a while but just waiting for the right one. Thank you!
I've been watching so long, and I love these kinds of videos! I remember when you lived here in Washington! Crazy how far you've come and I love to see it. Though sad to see that GORGEOUS Tundra go!
I was reading through the comments and not planning to comment, but.....I'm a lot like you in a lot of ways. I see the comments about "never being happy" when I know that's not the case. A good husband/ father is always thinking of ways to improve their situation. I don't think you are foolish enough to do anything that would be a detriment to your family. Getting the dream house means a lot more than a vehicle, and you can always find something else you want down the road. Good luck, hope everything works out!
I really appreciate that man, thank you. You’re absolutely right. Has nothing to do with “not being happy or content” we’re plenty happy and content here. And as of a few days ago, we weren’t even thinking about moving again. Seeing it as an opportunity to better our situation like you said.
Just remember that everything you have now is something you once hoped for… Just because we can doesn’t always mean we should… Wishing you the best see you in the next one!!!
Everyone is happy to give their opinions on risk, but very few people are actually willing to take such risks. I commend you for bravely sharing this info, and I'm sure you'll figure things out, regardless of the cards that you're dealt. Best of luck!
BRO I’m in the same situation. I put offer in, got accepted. The owner needs to find a house. The first house she paid for inspection and for whatever reason that inspection went bad… our contract ends July 23. If she doesn’t go under contract before then I’m backing out and renting!
I enjoy the videos and I’ll keep watching. That being said, anybody that also watches probably should also watch some videos on financial management. I’m not sure what his strategy is here, but, I would probably do things a little differently.
Were looking at a bigger house too but I'm not giving up my current dirt cheap mortgage unless its a house with a lot of land but it's tempting to take advantage of the equity though.
God bless you and your family Untamed. As a father of 2 baby boys, I totally understand where you’re coming from. I would and will do the same. God bless you brotha
New sub here, but my family and I love your content. Praying that you are provided what you need, that the best path is the only one open, that you and your family are blessed - God Bless
I work for a pool company and my advice is to make sure you are comfortable with the maintenance cost of the pool assuming no major repair is ever needed and just treating the water to keep it clean and maintain pH level, you will spend 1-2.7k every single year
Been watching you since it was just Peanut. My wife would always stop what she was doing and come join when she saw me watching untamed; hoping she would see a Peanut feature. Now she's always hoping to see the whole bunch, especially May may. Beautiful family. Best wishes from us brother 🤞🏽
Would absolutely love to buy your Tundra. Been watching you for years and have made a few mods on my 21 4Runner TRD Pro (Lunar Rock of course) that you had done to a few of yours. I am interested if you do sell.
I love watching your videos and listening to your opinions. This is just a thought, but that house you have there? Why dont you just put in a pool? Its a beautiful home and location with so much land......
We wish you luck in your new purchase.We see you're very excited about this dream home. Personally, we're almost into retirement at age 55. That's due to operating two businesses for decades and always saving. The only statement I can say is delve into the pro's and con's of this new purchase. Possibly, have a family discussion about wants vs. needs. Think about the "what if" situations that could happen. You're a very intelligent young gentleman. We hope it does work out for you and your family! God bless.
Good luck Mr. Untamed. You and your wife have a lot to look forward to with the 4 kidos. Just remember you will get out of bed one day and the youngest will be graduating from college and you will wonder where time has gone. Enjoy every minute my friend, time flies.
Thanks Shane, amen to that. And that’s honestly what is driving me to even give this a Go… it’ll be a house perfect for our kiddos and one we’d for sure make some great memories in. Not to say we won’t make equally great ones where we’re at now… but it’d be awesome.
I would be a very interested potential buyer if/when you list the Tundra for sell! Coming from the Bay Area, I would totally hope on the deal if there's a chance lol 😄 Best of luck on getting that dream home! That's why we all strive to work so hard in life for.
@@UntamedMotors ok. I’ll shoot you an email maybe. I’ve been telling my wife for over a month when you sell it I’m going to get it. 😂🤣 Also what size gas tank is it? And your recent video of being rich now - is spot on. Being a family is the best.
I had the same good intentions in regards to homes, considering the space, amenities, and the kids. Looking back, I shouldn’t have pushed our budget so far because it was stressful sometimes and when we went to sell, the higher the value of the home, the longer it takes to sell in the event that something unexpected happens. We’re in a basically new 3 bdrm now and down from the previous 5 bedrooms and lots of extra space. It’s less stressful. And as the kids grow and leave, it might feel like a big empty house and you’ll possibly justify selling it by the same opinion at the time. Less house, more travel, more life experiences to share together. That’s living. That’s what you’ll look back on fondly iat the end.
We did the same things to get our dream home, two years ago. It’s been amazing for our family. If you ever need anyone to help you navigate the MTG side of things, I’ve been a lender for 23 yrs. I’m in Colorado and lend in all 50 states.
Problem is I have a lot of people asking that. Want to make it fair, so I’ll likely see what a few dealers down in CO are willing to pay for it then offer it up on here.
I really enjoy watching your videos and always look forward to the next one. Take a step back. Analyze this. Look at it from another perspective. What would you tell someone else if they were thinking of doing this. Ask advice from Mrs. Untamed. Listen to what she says. Talk to your parents. And hers. Knowledge is power. Talk to your banker and financial advisor. A new and better house is not a cure all. Good luck on whatever you and your wife decide....
You're doing the right thing because what's out of your league today in 10+ years is going to be a walk in the park. You'll be glad you made the sacrifices today.
Do what you gotta do but you must REALLY be stretching your budget if that truck loan makes the difference between pulling this off or not. That's some thin, thin margins. Can't say I haven't played that game myself being honest but luck played a hand in my case and the economy wasn't as sketchy.
Wishing you the best in your decision. Selling in Colorado is easier that where you are. For you, thats a very good place to be. Pray and sleep on it.🙏 It will happen for you, tighten your budget, it will pay off. I'm happy for you and your family.

A good husband/ father is always thinking of ways to improve their situation. I don't think you are foolish enough to do anything that would be a detriment to your family. Getting the dream house means a lot more than a vehicle, and you can always find something else you want down the road. Good luck, hope everything works out!
I really appreciate that man, thank you. You’re absolutely right. Has nothing to do with “not being happy or content” we’re plenty happy and content here. And as of a few days ago, we weren’t even thinking about moving again. Seeing it as an opportunity to better our situation like you said.
I was pretending to own a ‘21 tundra through you, and now you’re gonna sell it out from underneath me?
Just remember that everything you have now is something you once hoped for… Just because we can doesn’t always mean we should… Wishing you the best see you in the next one!!!
Good luck, hope it all works out for you and your family!
How much do you anticipate selling it for?
Are you buying local or moving out of state again?
Happy for ya man!!! Hope it all works out for you guys!
Love to hear your plans; you're a smart guy (obviously) so you and your wife will figure out what's best for your family. Love your videos man!
How much are you asking for the truck?
Everyone is happy to give their opinions on risk, but very few people are actually willing to take such risks. I commend you for bravely sharing this info, and I'm sure you'll figure things out, regardless of the cards that you're dealt. Best of luck!
That tundra is really nice, how much would you sell it for?
Good luck! Hope it all works out! Selfishly interested in the tundra 😂
BRO I’m in the same situation. I put offer in, got accepted. The owner needs to find a house. The first house she paid for inspection and for whatever reason that inspection went bad… our contract ends July 23. If she doesn’t go under contract before then I’m backing out and renting!
I enjoy the videos and I’ll keep watching. That being said, anybody that also watches probably should also watch some videos on financial management. I’m not sure what his strategy is here, but, I would probably do things a little differently.
Good for you guys, its always scary, keep your goals and youll achieve them remember to be humble
How much are you selling your Tundra for? I am definitely interested. Please let me know.
Good luck bro! Hope you get what you want.
Thanks John! 🙏
Were looking at a bigger house too but I'm not giving up my current dirt cheap mortgage unless its a house with a lot of land but it's tempting to take advantage of the equity though.
How many miles do you have on the tundra? What’s your asking price?
It’s 7200. I’ll likely call a couple dealers down in CO to see what they’d pay for it then offer up to you guys at that price. Not entirely sure yet.
Good luck. Plenty of trucks down the road. Get the home that’s perfect for the family.
Exciting development! Good luck, and maybe finding old Toyotas that are great value could be a new and unique direction for the channel.
Thanks a ton man =]
How much for the TRD Pro please? Thanks
God bless you and your family Untamed. As a father of 2 baby boys, I totally understand where you’re coming from. I would and will do the same. God bless you brotha
Love your truck! Would love to see your asking price!
When does the bidding begin?
New sub here, but my family and I love your content. Praying that you are provided what you need, that the best path is the only one open, that you and your family are blessed - God Bless
Word of wisdom; going all inn, in cars, in houses, in eating, in alchool, or anything…; not always a good move…
Balance is the key👏🏻
Best of luck with all your endeavors!
I work for a pool company and my advice is to make sure you are comfortable with the maintenance cost of the pool assuming no major repair is ever needed and just treating the water to keep it clean and maintain pH level, you will spend 1-2.7k every single year
That’s great insight, I appreciate you sharing that thank you. Definitely something we need to keep in mind moving forward.
@@UntamedMotors We had a pool for 18 years....super expensive and lots of maintenance and repairs. Be careful.
@@Katy-Did appreciate the warning. Thank you.
Sounds awesome. Hope it all works out as planned.
Brother you do what’s best for the family in the long run, life is full of changes and scary uncertainties do what you got to do!!!
Good luck with the home sale and home purchase. Shooting for my dream house in 2025. I’d do The same thing with my 21 tundra and 24 runner.
Thank you! We’re pretty excited to have a shot at it nonetheless. =]
How much land do you have there? Beautiful place man, good luck with your new venture.
Good luck on the house! You’re right, kids are only young once. Giving them the best childhood you possibly can is well worth the stretch.
Your kids being young once really resonates with me
Wait, there are swimming pools in Wyoming?
Been watching you since it was just Peanut. My wife would always stop what she was doing and come join when she saw me watching untamed; hoping she would see a Peanut feature. Now she's always hoping to see the whole bunch, especially May may. Beautiful family. Best wishes from us brother 🤞🏽
Good luck with everything!
I agree with you 100%. Good luck.
Thanks a ton! 🙏
Praying that everything works out. You’re doing the right thing, men make hard decisions to benefits the legacy and the ones they love.
Would absolutely love to buy your Tundra. Been watching you for years and have made a few mods on my 21 4Runner TRD Pro (Lunar Rock of course) that you had done to a few of yours. I am interested if you do sell.
❤ happy for the Untamed Fam!
My house is in a contingent contract and going on market next week. I'll pray for your plans to go through for you and your family, too.
Good luck on the new home for the family. Just moved into my grandparents house after we re did the Flores and kitchen. Not selling my Tundra tho 😂
Feel free to talk more about the economy and the housing market as well becuase it’s all intertwined.
Happy to do that!
I would be interested in the Tundra if you do decide to part with it...on the meantime best wishes for your future home pursuits
I love watching your videos and listening to your opinions. This is just a thought, but that house you have there? Why dont you just put in a pool? Its a beautiful home and location with so much land......
We wish you luck in your new purchase.We see you're very excited about this dream home. Personally, we're almost into retirement at age 55. That's due to operating two businesses for decades and always saving. The only statement I can say is delve into the pro's and con's of this new purchase. Possibly, have a family discussion about wants vs. needs. Think about the "what if" situations that could happen. You're a very intelligent young gentleman. We hope it does work out for you and your family! God bless.
Hope it works out!!!
Thanks brother 🙏
So... You moving to Colorado?
I hope you get the house . Best of luck !!
Good luck Mr. Untamed. You and your wife have a lot to look forward to with the 4 kidos. Just remember you will get out of bed one day and the youngest will be graduating from college and you will wonder where time has gone. Enjoy every minute my friend, time flies.
Thanks Shane, amen to that. And that’s honestly what is driving me to even give this a Go… it’ll be a house perfect for our kiddos and one we’d for sure make some great memories in. Not to say we won’t make equally great ones where we’re at now… but it’d be awesome.
I would be a very interested potential buyer if/when you list the Tundra for sell! Coming from the Bay Area, I would totally hope on the deal if there's a chance lol 😄
Best of luck on getting that dream home! That's why we all strive to work so hard in life for.
If you sell the truck topper, ..im interested. It will go great with my 2021 TRD PRO Lunar Rock.
full asking price when it was pulled from market and they are the only people interested is wild. hope it all works out and you get the dream home!
Thanks a ton man. Really appreciate that!
Congrats!
I don’t recall when you bought this house but hope you’re not jumping from 3% to 6% interest.
We love to see it Untamed! Love the transparency
Thanks man. Appreciate the support brother!
Making memories for the kiddos the Best thing! Car comes n goes
Amen to that 🙏
Yikes that’s a tough one to part with, probably won’t find another 21 pro with that mileage, but it’s just a truck, family is more important!!!
Haha yeah I for sure won’t find another gen like this… that’s tough to come to grips with. BUT I am stoked for the chance to get our dream house.
When are you selling it? Where are you listing it? How can I contact you about it?
I’ll likely call a couple dealers down in CO first to see how much they’d pay for it. At that point I’ll post it on IG and here to see who wants it.
@@UntamedMotors ok. I’ll shoot you an email maybe. I’ve been telling my wife for over a month when you sell it I’m going to get it. 😂🤣
Also what size gas tank is it?
And your recent video of being rich now - is spot on. Being a family is the best.
Hey good luck may whats best for you and your family come to be with the grace of God and all works for the best.
I had the same good intentions in regards to homes, considering the space, amenities, and the kids. Looking back, I shouldn’t have pushed our budget so far because it was stressful sometimes and when we went to sell, the higher the value of the home, the longer it takes to sell in the event that something unexpected happens. We’re in a basically new 3 bdrm now and down from the previous 5 bedrooms and lots of extra space. It’s less stressful.
And as the kids grow and leave, it might feel like a big empty house and you’ll possibly justify selling it by the same opinion at the time. Less house, more travel, more life experiences to share together. That’s living. That’s what you’ll look back on fondly iat the end.
We did the same things to get our dream home, two years ago. It’s been amazing for our family. If you ever need anyone to help you navigate the MTG side of things, I’ve been a lender for 23 yrs. I’m in Colorado and lend in all 50 states.
Really appreciate the offer man, thank you. I’m currently synced up with a lender though. I’ll keep you in mind if it falls through.
@UntamedMotors, please let me know your price and details before you list it elsewhere.
Thanks!
Problem is I have a lot of people asking that. Want to make it fair, so I’ll likely see what a few dealers down in CO are willing to pay for it then offer it up on here.
@@UntamedMotors fair enough, 😊sounds good.
Thanks!
I really enjoy watching your videos and always look forward to the next one. Take a step back. Analyze this. Look at it from another perspective. What would you tell someone else if they were thinking of doing this. Ask advice from Mrs. Untamed. Listen to what she says. Talk to your parents. And hers. Knowledge is power. Talk to your banker and financial advisor. A new and better house is not a cure all. Good luck on whatever you and your wife decide....
Congrats and good luck. Please list the Tundra for your viewers first. I want to bring that truck back to SC!
Awesome news! Congrats man
Thanks man! Really appreciate it. =]
You're doing the right thing because what's out of your league today in 10+ years is going to be a walk in the park. You'll be glad you made the sacrifices today.
Will you be selling it privately? Doesn’t apply to me but I’m just dreaming of owning it.
Not sure yet, it’s always easiest to get a solid offer from a dealership nearby and walk away with a check in 20 mins.
Do what you gotta do but you must REALLY be stretching your budget if that truck loan makes the difference between pulling this off or not. That's some thin, thin margins. Can't say I haven't played that game myself being honest but luck played a hand in my case and the economy wasn't as sketchy.
Wishing you the best in your decision. Selling in Colorado is easier that where you are. For you, thats a very good place to be. Pray and sleep on it.🙏 It will happen for you, tighten your budget, it will pay off. I'm happy for you and your family.
