So options and leverage and very speculative type businesses.
When you start with a relatively small amount of capital, I remember when I had a few thousand dollars of investment capital, you want to kind of make money quickly.
I think one of the important things to understand is the power of compounding.
Berkshire Hathaway stock was like $48 a share in the 1960s.
You know, you've made you become a millionaire investing with Warren, just buying a share kind of back then.
But it didn't happen overnight.
You know, the key is buying businesses that you believe will compound at a high rate over a long period of time.
And, you know, the consumer, you know, often has insights before Wall Street.
I mean, Tesla, the company was appreciated.
The big shareholders were retail investors because institutions didn't understand how great Tesla was as a as a company, as a car.
So look for those experiences, products in your life run by companies or built by companies that you admire.
And that's a good place to start.
And then read the end report, see what they say about their business.

Or is it, you know, my concern, you asked me before about some of the AI companies or Anthropic has the lead now, you know, at a certain point in time, OpenAI was the leading company.
And then Google was the leading frontier model company.

You know, I just saw a startup where they raised a couple hundred million dollars in their seed round at a $2 billion valuation.
And that was just an idea.
