But the weather's gonna change.

The weather's gonna change.

You're not gonna be able to do the plan the way you wanna do it.

And so you just have to have lots of options of ways to get to the next place.

And listen, focus on the weather.

Listen for the weather.

You need to hear the weather changing so that you can pivot yourself.

I love a disaster.

Well, I love a disaster really not because I like watching people in pain.

I love a disaster because I love the lesson of it all.

And I think that when you have a crisis, you actually get to see people in their best and worst moments.

And this book, 1929, in very many ways is similar to this book I wrote, Too Big to Fail, about the 2008 crisis.

It's really about people.

Again, it's a story about characters.

It is not... I mean, it's a story about economics and systems and all that, but not really.

It's really a narrative.

It's to bring you inside the room so you can feel it.

You can be with these people.

You can see what they're saying and thinking and who they were talking to and what they were saying to their wives and...

Girlfriends and some of them are drinking and doing all sorts of crazy things.
