backpay, i just wonder a terrible precedent has already been set. i just wonder what precedent it will set even more. i mean, it s a terrible thing to reward somebody who voluntarily left his post to join the taliban. steve: caleb campbell is in the front row. former nfl linebacker. you were in the army, lieutenant as well. what about the you know, there are stories perhaps as many as six americans lost their lives looking for him. what kind of a payday did they get? they obviously don t get a payday right now and for paying that ultimate sacrifice, i would like to see that 300k distributed amongst their families. and regardless of what happens with bergdahl, i just want to acknowledge the united states military and the men and women who put their lives on the line to go search for him. i think that speaks absolute volumes about the type of military and the character of the men and women in our military. that s who america is, and that s what we represent. so i m hoping to see ju
is going to run you is about $1,500 a month, including taxes and insurance. great deal. indeed. meanwhile, somebody is looking for a house in las vegas. you got one for less than a quarter million dollars. absolutely. this is in vegas. a wonderful town house. it s three bedrooms, one full bath and two partial baths. two story living room. it s almost brand-new. new custom kitchen. it s got a wonderful island and an office, a loft, family room. big master bath. and it s got even an outdoor area. it s got a wonderful spa. this one again will cost you around $1,300 a month. it s actually ultimately cheaper than renting. no kidding. finally, down in atlanta, real estate values have been going up. you found a great house for under 300 k. yeah. this one i think is just a really good deal. i love this house. it s 289,900. this is actually a bungalow from
presumably you d sell the company in the future and to whom and what company would about buy you to make chocolate-dipped pretzels themselves. julie, knowing an elevator pitch is often quick, is there anything they could have done there in a sentence or two. you struck on all the measures i usually look for. people, your energy s good. you clearly love your product. the product s great. a lot of companies forget to actually demo their product. you did that right off the bat, which is great. customers. you ve got really nice customers and distribution. what i would have loved to have heard is how well you re doing, how far you ve gotten on how little. how capital efficient. and what you re going to do with the 300k, how far it s going take you and the biggest thing is how big is this going to get and to underscore eric s point, competition. when you talk about your product, you want to talk about what s unique, what s the sustaining differentiation, why
