And one of the things that you said that kind of still rang true to me to this day, because we were pretty much ready to tell, you know, like that was the decision that we made. Like, hey, this is too risky. We don't really know this guy. You know, all the excuses that everyone makes. Right.

And I remember getting on a hold and kind of looking over at my wife and just just asking her like, man, like we've spent so much more money on way stupider things than to actually just invest in ourselves. So like, what are we actually risking here? Right. So, yeah, again, that was, you know. 2023, May of 2023.

And, and here we are, man, it's been such a blessing to be a part of this community and, you know, be, you always say, you know, do business with people who you know, like, and trust. And I definitely think over two years, we've developed that for sure.

Absolutely, man. And funny enough, I was lucky enough to learn this at a really young age is to find a person that emulates the life that you want to live. You know, so I got really granular on my wife and I both like. That person not only needs to have the finances that we want, but they need to have the family that we want.

They need to have the kids raising them the way we want our kids to be raised. So, you know, obviously through time, it didn't happen on our first phone call, but we found that out, you know, through coaching with you for two years now, like that. That's kind of the development process that we needed. Like we needed someone that had all those aspects of life that we're looking for.

And just like you were saying is, is I had to find out who I wanted to be. And then, you know, great mentor once told me, you know, you have to find that person's just doing exactly what you want to do and just beg them to help you. And luckily, you know, here we are.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, man, when I first started, again, working full time in the car industry, I had to start waking up earlier. So I'd already I drove an hour for work. So I'd already have to wake up at, you know, 630 to make it to work by eight.

I'd realistically start waking up at four to start dialing people on the East Coast because I live on the West Coast and just making adjustments like that in our lives. So, you know, I take lunch breaks to be on the calls to be on the coaching calls. Um, you know, I'd spend my nights comping properties, you know, after the kids go to bed.

So, I mean, you know, people always say you think you're going to quit your nine to five for, um, like freedom, but you know, you end up getting a 24 seven and that's how it looked like for me, you know, uh, up until I actually got the opportunity to leave my job. And the funny thing is, is that journey was about eight months, right? From, from when I met you until I actually quit my job and under,
