Hes best known as professor from harry potter. I remember him from love actually. Your favorite movie. He kind of plays this guy whos cheating on his wife and tries to sneak around. Is that mr. Bean . Yes, mr. Bean is wrapping his present. And hes buying it for his mistress and hes worried his wife is going to show up. Anyway. Then he deserves to get caught. All right, so ellen pranked matt yet again. Its already starting because it was heating up when matt wore those high heels. This one involves a special present that ellen gave to matt to take to the white house. Just this past tuesday. He was on his way to the white house to interview the president. I said, could you do me a favor and sneak an ellen pencil in to the president s desk . And he didnt know that i was going to give him a giant after he said yes, i handed him that. I didnt think hed do it but look at this. Everybody whos playing a part in that growth and everybody sharing and contributing to that success. So with that, let me sign this memorandum. Thank you very much everybody. That is just genius. How do they do that . They do everything. Whens the jimmy fallon pranking going to start . I dont know. Thats going to be a good one. I just hope he doesnt get hurt in the process. Hes been hurt so much lately. Powerball frenzy im glad is over. The largest ever lottery jackpot. There were three Winning Tickets sold. That means they have to divvy up that i dont think theyre complaining. They were sold in chino hills, california, mumford, tennessee, and in florida. Meerp are the number. Here are the numbers again. 8, 27, 34, 4, 19 and a powerball of 10. I bet you if 34 had been 30, i bet you there would have been like 40 winners because theyre all coalendar days. Most people when they pick their favorite numbers pick something from the calendar go their birthday or anniversary. Most people dont pick that as a number. Why not . Because you remember dates, like, its my anniversary. What if youve been married for 55 years . Then you would put 55, wouldnt you . Im just trying to follow your logic through, sorry. Everybodys nodding. Never mind. All right this is interesting. What . I was kicked out of the brownies so i never made it to the girl scouts but have you seen the digital girl scout cookie sales popping up in your facebook feed . Usually kids knock on the door or set up little stands. Sometimes the parents help. But this they think one blogger doesnt love this. Now it seems like the kids miss out theyre saying on skills like how to be approachable, how to be friendly and gracious. Also actually accomplish something and know that you personally did it. Right. Thats huge. And rejection to your face. Thats good to experience. Cant have enough of that. All right. Okay. So this is their advice. Your kids can post their own video asking people to buy cookies. Kids can send thank you notes with the cookies. Although parents and girl scouts may assist, it is the girl who should make the sale. Often you get, you know, at work, this has happened every place i ever work, people bring in the sheet and they say, hey, my daughters can you just and im glad because sometimes people arent knocking on every single door. We have a friend who shall remain nameless. Her daughter said, mom, youre taking away all the fun. Oh, by taking the list to work . Yes, yes. You know what, yeah, i think it is more fun. Whenever theres a stand set up, dont care if its Girl Scout Cookies or lemonade, always stop and buy something. Its cool. Theyre sitting there, theyre trying. The worst thing is when youre really, really late and you cant, you got to go by. What can you do . Nothing. Im trying to stall so i dont hear your ihoda. Its a boy band. For some reason, its come on in the gym every day for like the past couple of weeks. Here it is. Its perfect by one direction. 1d, baby. Knight in shining armor i might never be the one who brings you flowers but i cant be the one be the one tonight when i first saw you from across the room i could tell that you were curious oh yeah girl i hope youre sure what youre looking for here comes the chorus, everybody. Cant get to that fast enough. Trouble up in hotel rooms if you like having secret little rendezvous if you like to do the things you know that we shouldnt do then baby im perfect oh, great.

How are you . So were talking about trying to pay down debt. When it comes to paying down debt, 40 prgs of americans ar this boat so youre not alone. Use the momentum beginning of the new year, try to pay it down as quickly as possible. Find a buddy and use an app. You need a budget as a good one. Sweep and mint. Com. The accountability thing, arent you either like that or youre not . You got into debt badly to begin with because of those kinds of has w i say do it fast because if you can really use the momentum, you can use progress. What about impulse shopping . You walk buy and you want it. First of all, dont go by there. Dont walk around. Stay off the computer. We actually spend 200 on average per month on impulse shopping. Oh, youre kidding. That adds up at the end of the year. Stick to your list. If you commit to doing that, 2,4 2,400 itself thats enough take a pretty nice vacation for two. If you happen to save some money what should we do with that . We really need to be investing. People only need 10 of their income to go towards cash each month. You really want to put the rest of it towards the stock market, towards your 401k. Right now people have 20 or more in cash. Thats quite a lot. Its not going to help you develop wealth in the long run. When you see the dow lately, its hard. You panic. I understand, but its the number one way to build wealth over the long run. Better than cash really. All right, you say buy less fewer things and go more places or experience more things. This ones exciting, right . So the number one new years resolution this year was to enjoy life to the fullest. Research shows that if were spending money on experiences, could be dine being out, it could be a great trip somewhere, were so much happier. We get memories as opposed to the new sweater that ends up in the closet anyway. Which hoda cant find. Which is probably in a pile. You say this is a good time to ask for a raise or get a new job . Yes, only 8 of americans are happy with their income. But the job market is better than weve seen in recent years so its a great time to ask and 3 out of 4 people who ask do get a raise. I was surprised by that. 3 out of 4 actually will get it. At least a portion of it, right . Something. Its worth a try. Thank you very much. We appreciate it.

This one is about finding a family and finding love. A surprising way life can come full circle. Patrick wrote in to tell us his extraordinary journey. Well meet him and his family in a moment but first listen to his letter very carefully. I was born on september 27, 1978. My birth parents were teenagers at the time and in the end my mom opted to put me up for adoption. I was adopted by two wonderful parents. My adopted mom had lupus. She was a soldier and fought the disease as long as she could but it became too much for her to handle. She died in november 1989 when i was 11. Life after my moms death was difficult. For a time, it was just my dad and i. Then eventually he remarried and we moved in with his his wife and her daughter. Fast forward 20plus years to a time when i had a son my own. I decided to embark on the journey to find my birth parents. When i reached out to the adoption agency, they told me my mom had left her Contact Information with them around the time i turned 18. I was ecstatic. I turned to the internet and within 20 minutes on facebook, i had a confirmed match. I knew the minute i saw her picture i found the right person. There was no mistaking the resemblance. Our first phone conversation lasted for hours. But that was just the beginning. My birth mother was able to track down my birth father. They hadnt really spoken or had any contact since they were together as teenagers when i was born. My moms husband had a pulmonary condition and unfortunately passed away. It was devastating to my mom. My birth father was in the process of separation and as time went on, my mom and dad rekindled the relationship they had when i was born. And then yes, you guessed it, they got back together. They recently even got married. It was completely surreal for all of us in the most amazing way possible. Last year, my birth parents came out to east coast and got to meet my adopted dad for the very first time. It was an incredible and emotional day, one that ill never forget. Sometimes life comes full circle and gives you back more in return than you ever missed the first time around. Wow. So patrick is here with us along with his birth parents stephanie and todd ripple. This is unbelievable. This is crazy. Hoda thinks its like doing one of her datelines. When you left your Contact Information after the birth of your son, did you ever i mean what was your intent when you left it do you think back then . I know you were just a teenager . I wanted to reconnect. You did . You knew that some day well, i was privileged to have a nurse in the hospital sneak me into a closet with my son before they took him away and let me spend a few minutes with him. And i told him one day i will see you again. Oh, my gosh. And then and this relationship, so you guys were obviously teenage sweethearts. And then you lost contact altogether . Like there was no communication between the two of you through the years . It was kind of a parental insistence there. How old were you . May i ask that . I was 17 and then 18 when i delivered. And from a very strict religious family. And it was forbidden that we continued our relationship. So were the sparks there when you remet . Is that what happened . Its so funny. For me, it was like 35plus years just disappeared. Really . The same. And patrick, for you, were you thinking, this is just surreal . It really was. I mean, i started the whole process in my head, hopes but no expectations. I knew i may not even find them or, you know, may contact them and it wouldnt go any further than that. Maybe they wouldnt even want to be found. Right. So each surprise along the way has just added to, you know, the whole i went from one side of, you know, realistically knowing i may not ever find them to where were at today so its just been one complete surprise after another. Im just curious, how was that first hug with your mom . Well, it was the picture right there when we were in the airport. What did it feel like . It was eerie how familiar it was. It felt like you had just said goodbye to someone and they were coming home, you know, when you found someone so wow.
