We've never lost a partner at Sixth Street.

Maybe after this podcast, we will, but because you got so many listeners, but you could argue maybe we should have lost some.

Maybe there's a criticism there, but there's different forms of compensation.

I think sometimes in our industry, everyone thinks about one form of compensation, which is monetary, but there's who you work with compensation.

What's your culture like compensation?

Are you getting developed compensation?

There's opportunity.

Do you have white space in front of you compensation?

We try to take a more holistic view to that and we coach that and people like to work there and we don't have...

We don't tolerate it.

Will that pop up every once in a while where two people get intense and then a district?

That happens as long as it's with respect and dignity.

And again, people get intense, but that's not what we're doing.

Because again, our business model is predicated on people working together, not having fiefdoms and silos.

So they all work together, share information, share relationships.

That is literally the essence of our business model.

That's why we're so focused on it.

I was very fortunate that my parents, we didn't grow up with a lot, but they always spent a lot of time with me.

They were always present at all my sports games.

They were just always there.
