When I think of the future, I think of important people and what I want to offer them. At Nordea Private Banking, my own investment manager helps me make decisions that take time. This way my family stays ahead of the steps.

Hei, mä liisaan meille iVensiltä käytetyn auton suoraan verkosta. iVensiltä, eli siis vaihtoliising-auto. Joo, iVensillä on niitä kuntotarkastettuja ja vähän ajettuja. iVensillä. Ja joo, liisaamalla ei tarvi stressata auton arvon alenemisesta. Ei niin, ja iVensillä kaikki auton ylläpito kuuluu samaan kiinteään kuukausimaksuun. iVensillä. Niin just, iVens vaihtoliising. Ah, se on iV... Eiku, joo, just noin. Mutkattomia leasing-kilometrejä. Autokauppa.iVens.com. iVens. Better with every move. Ladies and gentlemen, joining us now is a man who's got a massive brain.
Mike Florio.
He used to be a lawyer, then he decided to take his talents to the Internet.

Mike, how are you today?
The fireworks definitely do not work in the Olive Garden alternate location. Hold on. I'm going to have to look into that.
Wait, did you say Olive Garden? Yeah, because the room he's in looks like an Olive Garden. Have you heard the news, the big news about Olive Garden bringing back the never-ending pasta bowl event and then also bringing back the never-ending pasta pass?
I have not.
Apparently, you can spend $100, and they only have like 10,000 of them, and you get some sort of deal with the never-ending pasta bowl.
You get pasta, unlimited, and of course, the salad or soup with the breadsticks, of course, for 13 weeks, Mike. 13 weeks. Basically, taking you up through Thanksgiving for 100 bucks.
My mom loved the Olive Garden and she was first generation Italian. And I never understood because the hardcore Italians look down their noses at the Americanized version of Italian food. But I think from her perspective, and she's been gone for 31 years now, but I think... From her perspective, it was just a sign of assimilation of the Italian culture into America that we got our own chain now. Forget about McDonald's and Burger King. We got our own chain of Italian food in the Olive Garden. So she loved that place.
I think that's as good of a reason to like the Olive Garden as any. Mike, we are happy to have you on. We are dangerously close to training camps opening up here in the NFL, and I'm still trying to figure out, and I am in this hook, line, and sinker, what is Aaron Donald going to do? Is he going to play for the Rams or not? And I'm very much into all of the crumbs and the Easter eggs and whatever he wants to leave.
What is Mike Florio’s perspective on Aaron Donald’s possible return to the Rams?
I will be Hansel and Gretel on this trail.
Well, the Rams are in Hollywood and I do think they're applying a certain cinematic panache to this whole thing. I think they're milking every bit of intrigue that they can out of it. I don't think people are paying enough attention to it, whether they've assumed he's not gonna come back or they've just assumed he is.
