By the state not once, but twice. The main backer of the windmills . A Chinese Company. For more on this the washington examiners tim carney. Tim, welcome to the show. Thanks for having me. Gerri good to have you here. Why is the d. O. E. Wanting to give out money for a project that new jersey doesnt even want . Well, the department of energy is very hard trying to push wind. Wind is lagging behind solar. Solar is getting advances where it is becoming more affordable. That is not happening nearly as much as wind. Still doesnt make sense to do it as opposed to fossil fuels. The department of energy is really trying to jumpstart some of these projects. The local town opposed it, the authorities because they saw the way the Chinese Company did their accounting was stable. It was not standard american accounting. They didnt know if this was another Green Energy Company that was going to fail. And the department of energy has a long history of supporting such failures. So maybe they dont have as much concern. Gerri credibility is not in evidence here. The new jersey regulator said, hey this, is too risky. We dont want to do it. Proposal is to build five windmills three miles off the coast of atlantic city. New jersey regulators said no. The project would be owned0 by a Chinese Company . Is that part of the federal government strategy, they want to give business to companies in china, not companies here . This is one of the weird effects that happened in this crony socialism as people call it or venture socialism. Where theyre going we want these. Sometimes theyre supporting Foreign Companies, making things here and selling them. Sometimes they support Foreign Companies owning things here. Sometimes theyre supporting u. S. Companies selling things abroad and supporting it. There is no economic sense behind it. Gerri no. The profits on this deal go to china. It is just about trying to push out green energy because somebody at the department of energy has decided its food. Of course these things end up going to political cronies or in this case, Foreign Companies whos accounting we cant vouch for. Gerri crazy. Crony socialism, i love that phrase. Look at these numbers. As youve been rightly pointing out in this segment, government is throwing all its weight behind Renewable Energy broadly, we spent 26 billion backing these companies. They only created 2300 jobs. Were spending 11. 5 million for each and every Renewable Energy job were creating. That is terrell way to go. Do you agree . Yes. I also think it can actually hurt us. If were looking for some sort of Energy Independence or fuels that dont give off green houses gases. When the government says well support this project or were going to subsidize this project, the government can not know as well as free market what the projects are most promising. Theyre taking moneyway from what could be a more promising Green Energy Project and giving one to regulators have picked. We call it picking winners and losers but Energy Department seeming picks losers and somehow thinks it a winner. Gerri remind me of solyndra. This is company that the government loved and gave a lot of money to and went bellyup. I could name a Dozen Companies like solyndra. Razor technologies. Aminex, first solar, not first solar but all sorts of other Green Energy Companies that have failed since getting federal support. Gerri we ought to know better. There are studies out there that show there is no reduction in Carbon Dioxide emissions with wind energy or very little. Here is what the Energy Secretary had to say about this he said, offshore wind offers Untapped Energy resource for the United States, could create, thousands, manufacturing and Construction Supply chain jobs across the country and drive billions of dollars in local economic investment. Tim, do you agree . See, i dont know and thats why im glad im not in charge of investing money. I would like the decisions to be made by people that say there is promise here and federal government is making sure is clears away any unnecessary regulatory roadblocks. Instead folks at department of energy who are playing with our money as investors instead of letting the market allocate the money to where it is going to work. I dont know if solar is going to work. If wind, if egeothermal or which particular types of these are going work. That is great reason to let people invest their own money instead of secretary of Energy Investing my money for me. Gerri nobody ever does a good job until their dollars are on the line. Taxpayer dollars, youre happy to spend and throw over your shoulder. When it comes to your own money you get serious. Tim, thank you. Thank you. From your tax dollars to your retirement money. Hey, are you smarter than a Hedge Fund Manager . Chances are you might be according to a new survey that found for the second month in a row, Hedge Fund Performance trailed both stocks and bonds in other words, if you had simply bought index fund in march and april you would have beaten the pros. For more on this, anna dunne with Alpha Capital management. Great to have you here, anna. Thanks for coming on. Youre in charge of finding hedge funds out there to put High Net Worth money into. Youve seen these numbers. Youve known these numbers. Is it surprising to you that the Hedge Fund Guys are doing such a lousy job right now . Thank you for having me on. Yes, you know, it is always disappointing to see Hedge Fund Returns go down in both march and april. Tough to crucify a manager just based on two months of performance but we were disappointed to see them kind ever melting down at the same time a lot of momentum stocks were. Gerri what is interesting i think that everybody assumes this would be a stock picking year. So you would assume active managers could do better. What went wrong . A lot of the hedge fund seem to have been in technology an health care companies. A lot of the big flyers that were in the news a lot last year, maybe twitter, tesla, things like that, really got hurt in the first quarter. Gerri so a lot of people climbed on board the nasdaq wagon and got shot as a result of some of those stocks really took a hit. You know, whats interesting about hedge funds it is what you pay for them, which is a ton of dough. 2 is the fee. And then they take 20 off the top. Now let me tell you, i can buy an index fund and it is very nearly free. Isnt that a better investment for individual investors right now . You know, we at Alpha Capital still firmly believe in active management. The stock market has gone straight up. It is going to go down. There are just market corrections that always happen. When those happen you dont want to be just in etf. You want someone smart manning your money and that is where hedge funds show value. Gerri sort of grand debate, isnt it . Active or passive. A lot of People Choose one or the other. Sometimes you get a blend. Here are the results. Average hedge fund over the year, march down a third of a percent. April down. 17 of a . S p 500 up marginally, almost 1 but not really doing better. I know a lot of individual investors cant bet in the game of hedge funds. Really High Net Worth clients who can. What specialty are you recommending right now . What kind of specialization is really paying off . Because those Hedge Fund Managers use all kind of strategies. Absolutely. You know we always recommend our investors to take a cautious approach. Tempting to look at s p, to say, hey, i could have been up 30 last year. But you cant sleep at night when hedge funds are doing better and s p is going down and youre only invested in the s p. We like to caution our investors to take a longer term approach. Gerri i long the longterm approach. Anna, we saw a story today about how much Financial Advisors tend to earn over a lifetime of savings. Im not sure how much i believe in the numbers. They shea 400,000 what you pay your fa over time. The truth is, most people dont have a Financial Advisor for their entire life. So theyre probably not paying that much money but what do you think of the idea of having a Financial Advisor in the first place, particularly people who dont meet your High Net Worth requirements . You know, every firm is different, so even if you cant invest in a hedge fund, if youre not an accredited investor you can still have a Financial Advisor helping you pick what you want to be invested in. I think theyre a very valuable service for the average investor. There is too much going on in the markets to keep track of it if you have a fulltime job outside of the investment world. Gerri anna, thank you. Absolutely. Gerri just keep those fees below 1 . 1 or below. Now we want to know what you think. Heres our question tonight. Are Financial Advisors, are they worth the money . Log on to gerriwillis. Com. Vote on the righthand side of the screen. I will show you the results at the end of tonights show. We have more this hour. We take you inside the business of travel. How you can go on an extreme new vacation, cool stuff. We have the best action vacations by land, sea or air, right. Gm releases a new video to prove just how safe their recalled cars are but do their claims hold up . Details coming. When folks think about what they get from alaska, they think salmon and energy. But the energy bp produces up here creates Something Else as well jobs all over america. Engineering and innovation jobs. Advanced Safety Systems technology. Shipping and manufacturing. Across the United States, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. When we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. Thats not a coincidence. Its one more part of our commitment to america. I got more advice than i knew what to do with. What i needed was information i could trust on how to take care of me and my baby. Luckily, unitedhealthcare has a Simple Program that helps moms stay on track with their doctors and get the right care and guidancebefore and after the baby is born. Simple is good right now. anncr vo innovations that work for you. Thats health in numbers. Unitedhealthcare. Can you start tomorrow . Yes sir. Alright. Lets share the news tomorrow. Today we failrly busy. Tomorrow were booked solid. We close on the house tomorrow. I want one of these opened up. Because tomorow we go live. Its a day full of promise. And often, that day arrives by train. Big day today . Even bigger one tomorrow. When csx trains move forward, so does the rest of the economy. Csx. How tomorrow moves. Gerri General Motors still insisting their recalled cars are safe to drive if you follow some very specific instructions. Today the automaker releasing a video telling drivers what to do to stay safe until they can get their car fixed. Joining me from rochester, new york, is lauren fix. Shes the car coach. Lauren, lets get down to this because it is an interesting video. I want to know, this is a big program they have launched to try to set the record straight to get people to bring cars in. Is it working . Well, i think when you put out a youtube video, if you want it to be trending, if you want it to be, at the top of the youtube list, when you go on that website, i think you need to make hashtags that are trending and social media to draw people to it because most of the kids that talk to, they will never even know its there. Gerri well, you make a great point. 2. 6 million vehicles recalled. Gm trying to convince people to get the car into the dealership and get it fixed. Lets listen to this video and then i want your reaction. Here it is. Okay. To give you an idea of the extensive testing that weve done to insure these vehicles are safe to drive with just a single key, i want to give you a firsthand look at some of the footage we have supplied to the national highway Traffic Safety administration. Gerri so there you see, the video and as you said, extreme driving conditions. Is this a fair representation of what real gm owners would be facing with these cars . Well i have actually been to the proving grounds. Gm really does have an appropriate proving ground, if the watch the whole video. Theyre trying to replicate what would happen on normal roadways and lovely potholes and everything we have. We know the maintenance of some of these cars if you havent replaced shocks or springs, you will not be able to replicate natural wear and tear. Its a great example and good for nhtsa because legislators are saying park the cars. Kids that own these cars, if you look at graphics youre looking at 20 something years old or people who dont have the finances to afford a brand new car. So, to park the car, they dont have the kind of money to buy a new car or they would be driving a new car. Gerri we were talking before about the key chain. That is what gm says, get rid of heavy key chains, you have an example to show what you shouldnt use. A little bit much. This is typical of a youths key chain or what most people have on their key chains. For a lot of people, easy to find it in your backpack or purse or your bag. But you know, we carry thumb drives and extra keys and whatever kind of stuff that they have got. The truth is, the weight on the key is causing load on the tumbler. That could potentially cause it to go to the off position. So theyre saying get rid of all that. Put the ignition key exclusively on a single key ring, to find it and use that until you get the repair made. The other thing theyre saying today, frankly theyre not even taking their own advice in the video, is they want to you use a specific kind of key. So take a look at this representation of what theyre saying. So theyre saying use the key with the circular hole in it and not the other one. What is this about . Well i actually made a phone call to General Motors and spoke with someone in the communications departmenand they said the reason they showed that in the video, when you purchase these cars new, they did have the slot the key. When the new ignition cylinder goes in you will get two keys have just a single circle. Until then they want you to follow their advice, which is just the use ignition key and when you get the new cylinder put in you will get two new keys because our old keys will not longer be useful. Gerri that makes sense. They will give you a new key and dont want to you confuse the two. Thats good. Gerri what else could gm do to get people back to the dealership, get this thing fixed . If you want to reach that marketplace is offer them a discount. Thing is, it will be on a used car. If youre buying a car that has 10 years old, its value in total is not worth a lot. You could use it as a down payment on a newer car but i think you have to try and entice them to come in with some sort of a social interaction. You will have to use the internet. I run into people all over the country when i travel. I see one of the cars on recall list, i ask the driver if i can find them, hey, are you going to take that car into a dealer . Just kind of getting feedback. Of the 99 of the time i get, theres a recall on that car . I didnt know that. Im thinking, wow, have we not covered in newspaper, print, radio, everywhere . But the fact is the original owner no longers owns the car in most cases. So as it changed hands it has gone through used car lots. So if you do know someone, please tell them get your car into the dealership and sign up to the get cylinder. Gerri quickly before you go, lauren, the company said, hey well give you employee discount if you buy new. You made a point a lot of people cant do that they cant afford it. How big of a discount would that be . It will not be that much. Depend on the vehicle. If you buy a cadillac, obviously bigger margin to play with as opposed buying a chevy spark. The spark is a great car. That would be a good switchout or a chevy cruze ecoversion. They have a lot of good car on the market. You could go 1,000, 1500 off. Depend how you load it up and finances and credit rating. That will make a difference on financing, leasing unless you buy it out for cash. Gerri great advice. Thank you, lauren. Thank you. Gerri coming up later in the show we take a look at tribeca reborn, how this manhattan neighborhood has come back after suffering severe economic damage. Next we answer the question, how do you do that . How to look out for stock lockups. Were looking out for you and your money. Up. A short word thats a tall order. Up your game. Up the ante. And if you stumble, you get back up. Up isnt easy, a we ought to know. Were in the business of up.

After dropping nearly 18 on tuesday, on the heels of a postipo lockup expiration. That is when the insiders cant sell. They get to sell and apparent with twitter they all sold. This sending the share price to an alltime low for the company. So where does twitter go from here and what other lockups should we be on the look out for . Joining me united advisors chief strategist scott martin. So you know as people who might want to invest in twitter some day what do we make of the fact that insiders dumped stock like a hot potato sending it down 18 and wiping out four billion dollars of market value . It was really nasty, wasnt it, gerri . Is kind of from, we should have known category because youre right. Twitter had a really good ipo. Went up 30 plus some in the couple months and took elevator ride down to where it is now. Kind of become the Johnny Manziel of the stock market, kind of a boombust issue. That is the thing, gerri. It is running into the period which is sec mandated lockup where like you said the insiders can get out. Ipos in general are success for the company especially those on inside and who work there and get shares and accrue them over certain period of time. Once you have a flush like this, we saw it in facebook as well, that tend to be a good time to jump in. Gerri thats my next question. Is this time to jump in or time to stay away . Whats next for twitter . So twitter is facing a pretty tough tape right now. Meaning the market itself seems to be hammering these Growth Stocks and it is selectively doing it. Twitter is making money. They do have revenues, right . So their Cash Register is ringing. The problem, gerri, they just cant keep the money via profits. So listen, theyre hitting these companies that dont have very good profits right now. So i would wait until this kind of market environment changes a little bit. But i do think twitter will be a good value at some point in the future because the Business Model makes a lot of sense to me. Gerri well, you know what i do find interesting . About these companies . It seems their Business Model works for a while and then it stops working. The halflife of these companies in view is getting shorter and shorter and their validity in the marketplace, their attraction to young Internet Users it lasts for a while but it is not like ge. Not Like Companies that have businesses that seem to go on forever. I do think though its a great idea to look at other companies that have lockup expirations coming up and here are a few. Amc entertainment. Fidelity guaranty ad life and hilton worldwide. A company called, i hope i pronounce this correctly, zulily . Zulily is interesting one. Internet based company. Hilton as well, very interesting. Those are two Companies Still kind of consumer oriented. Hilton may be more established kind of like the ge comment you made. You have to watch out for the dates, lockup periods where people get out. Its a simple supply and demand issue, gerri. When supply hits market or there is more of something typically it goes down in value. That is what youre seeing when folks dump these shares, prices sufficienter. An Opportunity One way or the other. Either to get out before the selloff, or to pick it up if you like it. Can you make a recommendation on one of these stocks right now that we just mentioned . Yeah. I like hilton, gerri. Because theyre established. Hilton is a worldwide leader. They have good revenues. They have pretty good profits and the Hospitality Industry as weve seen in recent Economic Data is contributing a lot to gdp and theyre hiring workers. That is a good place to focus some of your investment dollars. Gerri that sounds good. Scott, thank you. See ya, gerri. Gerri time to look at stories youre clicking on tonight on foxbusiness. Com.

Get the flexcare platinum from Philips Sonicare and save now. Philips sonicare b1 there has been a blow to crazed airlines. According to a new government report, u. S. Airlines are taking in less money from baggage fees than back in 2012. So why . 100 million . What is going on . One is that the airlines are taking some of the profit and they have installed larger overhead bins and their planes. And so the new planes have also come what larger overhead bins. People are resisting. So fewer people forgo smoking. And people are forgoing checking bags. Gerri here the baggage fees by airline. Getting a sense of who is leading the pack and so how is a consumer do you avoid paying these fees. One way is to get the credit card to give you a free check rack. And theres no there is no fee for the first year and about 95 a year after that. Another thing that i use all the time, and a lot pulsates nonsense, but put everything in a box and take it to fedex or kinkos and ship it to your home office. It is a great idea. The one i might as well be sure its going to get there and go right to my destination. So generally you dont have to should this come everything in a sturdy box. Gerri here is something im worried about. When it comes to baggage fees come im afraid theyre going to start charging us for our carryon baggage. How likely is that . Im afraid as well. Frontier has just started charging on their lowest fares, 25 but now everyone has to pay on these figures. Which Major Airlines are going to be the next to do it . Welcome i would say this the one that most people know what it is that they can compete with united in denver. Gerri dont hang around. I dont want to say specifically, but it could be united. And im sure theyre probably thinking that its creepy. Doing so someone made that move, what they say, great idea . Remapped jetblue does not charge for the worse back. Southwest is not charge for the first and second. However, Spirit Airlines charge and then we took airlines copy them and now Frontier Airlines copy them. So theres a lot of copycatting in the airline industry. Gerri before you go, what is your best advice for people to save money . Fly on jetblue. And just pack light. They are not going to charge you toward this carryon fee. So theres many who have under seat luggage. You can google it. And you dont even have to pay a baggage being. Gerri thank you for the great information. On capitol hill, the travel industry is asking congress to reauthorize the Program Includes foreigners to visit United States, and its funded in part with the u. S. Travel Association Says its worth it. Roger dow joins us from capitol hill where he just testified. We are the only developed country that has never promoted come to the United States and usas budget has 100 Million Dollars on that, the return is about 47 to one. This before. Gerri so lets talk about that travel in the u. S. Economy. How much can they afford . It is a laborintensive industry. And then all of them make up about 15 million jobs. Weve added them faster than any others factor in the u. S. Economy by 49 . Back to where we were prerecession creates a great place to work and possibly jobs you cant outsource. Gerri no, not at all. But it just makes me raise my eyebrows. Because its the number one export it and that is our biggest single export of travel. At our biggest service export. If you take 180 billion, its almost counterintuitive because it is the biggest exporter and the fastest growing, 25 of all export growth luster came from the travel industry. The travelers are coming here, they want to come here, they want to spend money. Gerri here is the bottom line that youre asking for. Youre going to tax me when i go see my mom in north carolina, or is this only a tax in foreigners coming in the country . It is a tax that is only paid by visitors to the u. S. So its miniscule compared to elsewhere. And these are the people that use our services. So how would it be levied . Is that attitude that Airline Ticket . A visitor would see it coming from these countries where you dont need it, like the uk. And every two years they have to register and there is a chart for 14. And then they can travel 50 times. When they register it last for two years. Gerri roger, thank you for coming on tonight. And now we want to hear from you. Heres what some of you are sending me. Our financial visors, are they worth the money . Is a great question from i dont know, but i tend to lean towards no. And gilbert writes that some are not, but most are depending on your needs if youre not using a financial professional, you may need a financial professional. And here are some of your emails from yesterdays show. Elizabeth warren the leading student death. And everyone should pay for their own education. The youngster can justify to me what he wants that degree and underwater basket weaving, he should have a good reason. And the main problem is they can only teach political correctness. And coming up next, where you want to go on your next vacation . Stay with us. My dad has aor afib. Brillation, he has the most common kind. Its not caused by a heart valve problem. Dad, it says your afib puts you at 5 times greater risk of a stroke. Thats why i take my warfarin every day. But it looks like maybe we should ask your doctor about pradaxa. In a clinical trial, pradaxa® Dabigatran Etexilate mesylate . Was proven superior to warfarin at reducing the risk of stroke. And unlike warfarin, with no regular blood tests or dietary restrictions. Hey thanks for calling my doctor. Sure. Pradaxa is not for people with artificial heart valves. Dont stop taking pradaxa without talking to your doctor. Stopping increases your risk of stroke. Ask your doctor if you need to stop pradaxa before surgery or a medical or dental procedure. Pradaxa can cause serious, sometimes fatal, bleeding. Dont take pradaxa if you have abnormal bleeding or have had a heart valve replaced. Seek immediate medical care for unexpected signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Pradaxa may increase your bleeding risk if youre 75 or older, have a bleeding condition or stomach ulcer, take aspirin, nsaids, or blood thinners. Or if you have kidney problems, especially if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctors about all medicines you take. Pradaxa side effects include indigestion, stomach pain, upset, or burning. If you or someone you love has afib not caused by a heart valve problem. Ask your doctor about reducing the risk of stroke with pradaxa. How much money do you think youll need when you retire . Then we gave each person a ribbon to show how many years that amount might last. I was trying to, like, pull it a little further. [ woman ] got me to 70 years old. Im going have to rethink this thing. Its hard to imagin how much well need for a retirement that could last 3years or mor so maybe we need to approach things dferently, if we want to be ready for a longer retirement. Gerri it is the business of travel all day long on fox business network. One of the countries best destinations, the Pacific Northwest. Have you been in a matter from face and turn. Whitney is with me from his marketing company. Tell me what is going on with participation in these extreme sports . Kids are not just playing tee ball and football anymore. We have between our here for kids to get involved. And it takes a lot to make this go. Gerri tell me about this. What you have . Is a water that attracts them . Ocean . Wakes . Some of my favorite things to play hooky on our little bit of skydiving and we ski around here, with anonymously being surrounded by water. Gerri theres even a pretty nice one country out there as i recall. Rumor has that. Gerri what is hot and what is not . What is the cuttingedge . Something tells me that what i would can that are in it reedsport commute day oh, that is not. Its really not extreme, even folks these days, the word extreme, its really more individual sport that have taken off nationally, stand up paddle boarding. Gerri we are looking at pictures of wake boarding. Extreme sports for me is riding the subway, so youre teaching me a lot. And we appreciate you on the show today. Breaking this down, the conversation into land and sea and air, on land, were you having people do not. Like i said earlier, the great thing about it up here is in seattle the weather has been great and the mountains are still getting snow. So a lot of us have even played hooky on Cinco De Mayo and so right now im sure a lot of us are heading out to have a lot of fun. Gerri we just saw some people where they are doing some cool stuff. So lets talk about this. You said skydiving . Yes, absolutely. And out here outside of olympia, washington, the guys that run that, its a thirdgeneration job zone. And its right near mount rainier. So you can go skydiving in a lot of places, but its pretty neat to go in the lower 48s biggest mountain. So that is pretty cool. You can go tandem or if you really want to get into it, we will have you out here for a field trip in decertified. Im covering my eyes is watching the video, not sure if you can pull that off areas. I am such a scaredycat with heights. Tell me about your company and how you plug into all of this two i think its interesting to find out. Another west coast is a very different place. The Pacific Northwest is so different. Kids are doing all of these different individual sports. What does your company do . We represent athletes and brands and events that are unique to the northwest. I have been here for 15 years. Gerri thank you so much. Thank you for having me. Gerri still to come, my two cents more. In tribeca is one of manhattans hottest areas. The brandnew 36 milliondollar penthouse. You have to see it to believe it. Up. A short word thats a tall order. Up your game. Up the ante. And if you stumble, you get back up. Up isnt easy, and we ought to know. Were in the business of up. Everyday delta flies a quarter of Million People while investing billions improving everything from booking to baggage claim. Were raising the bar on flying and tomorrow we will up it yet again. When folks think about wthey think salmon and energy. But the energy bp produces up here creates Something Else as well jobs all over america. Engineering and innovation jobs. Advanced Safety Systems technology. Shipping and manufacturing. Across the United States, bp supports more than a quarter million jobs. When we set up operation in one part of the country, people in other parts go to work. Thats not a coincidence. Its one more part of our commitment to america. Gerri coming gerri after the september 11 terrorist attacks, downtown new york took a hit as people left. The neighbors are making a comeback like tribeca with celebrities and restaurants and here is a look. You know, tribeca certainly has changed, believe it or not, there are nine new developments going up in this area right now. This was a highsecurity Construction Zone for years and years, so that is certainly different. We are in a 36 milliondollar listing here in tribeca. But i want to show you some pictures that we took earlier. Because this is more than 7000 square feet of luxury and you can see the different bedrooms. And thats really all about the view here. Certainly that is one of the big selling point in of the property. You are going to pay a lot in taxes. 11,000 per month. The maintenance on the building, 24 hour doorman service. All of thats going to cost you. But for a high cash buyer is going to spend 36 million, they will likely spend cash in his apartment and that is something that is going to be worth it. So looking at this, this is the main living area and also a private entrance, private elevator, highsecurity everywhere, and i have had control. So its going to the kitchen. I just want to show you, take a look at this. And then i had this italian marble that they imported from italy. Gerri i could become work. I could serve on that no questions asked. Thats easy for me. [laughter] that is a huge kitchen. I lived in tribeca. My apartment did not look like that, but it is impressive. So i just have to get my brain wrapped around a. How expensive is this . If you can afford the price, will be paying each month . The mortgage is about 10 grand, about 10,000 per month. I did want to show you this, automatic doors, this is something ive never seen before, they are actually, you touch them and they open, its electronic. This is all the storage that you get. And then again the view is. And then of course the covered refrigerator. Theres no food in it. Its not a gerri willis refrigerator because youre simply stopped with food. But again, this apartment, i think one of the cool things about it, this is one i think that we should get this International Vibe that will come in, its going to be entertaining and that is the most important thing. By the way, i do want to show you you have new jersey and then you have this opening up of the museum. And thats going to be great this year. So kids and dogs in parks, whole foods, it is so different than it was just a few years ago. And for those of us that live in manhattan, it thrilling to see that this area has come back. Robert de niro in the Film Festival brought in a lot of money since he started that Film Festival in 2002 and his son is a cobroker of this apartment and his father just doesnt want to be on television. Gerri too darn bad. So let me tell you, that kitchen is awesome. Because its so subtle and the way it is designed. I will leave you with this. This is your view from the kitchen, and that is, of course, new jersey. The because new jersey has gone so built up, people dont realize that new jersey is becoming its own metropolis. So there you go. Gerri we will be right back with my two cents more and the answer to our question of the day. Stay with us. Gerri we asked if Financial Advisors are worth some money, we ask the question on gerriwillis. Com, 36 said yes, 64 years said no, interesting. Thank you for joining us, see you back here tomorrow.
