You can do it at four in the morning.

You just get it done.

What I found really difficult was then leaving school.

I went and worked for a year for a tech company in London.

Yeah.

I had a year in between and kind of didn't really do a gap year, which is what most people do.

I worked in Shanghai for about six months.

again just chasing that kind of isolation didn't speak mandarin but loved that then got to bristol university and was like oh this is a step backwards yeah because maybe you had always had a bit of an entrepreneurial spirit 100 that's what i wanted to do maybe i wanted to be i was just trying to set up companies and the social network had just come out and i was when i was 21 i was devastated because mark zuckerberg made a billion pounds for his 21 and i hadn't

and I genuinely it never occurred to me that I wouldn't because I was like that's what this has all been leading up to where did you get that belief was it eaten your parents or just all of it it was just feeling both that you can do anything genuinely that's all anybody's ever told me and

It was a Rees-Mogg in my house a couple of years above me at Eton.

So he was senior to me.

But I remember, I think, being in the room next door to him.

But what's weird is when you're 13, you don't know, Rees-Mogg means nothing to you.

You just go, is this ginger kid in my house?

Yeah.

Well, we'll find out.
