Yeah.
We would love it.
Let me have you come on down.
Yeah.
That's right.
Excellent.
We want to keep you at that marker right there.
You don't want to get too young.
Yeah.
Yeah, we'll keep you at 22, and then that's where you want to go.
That'd be great.
So the only way I know to create huge value is to create a company that five and 10 years after you started is much, much larger.
And the easiest way to do that is through M&A.
Of course, you have to have organic growth as well.
But I look for an industry where it's large enough.
If I want to create a company that's tens of billions of dollars in revenue, then I have to do an industry that's hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue.
If I want to consolidate an industry, there has to be things to buy.
There have to be things to buy on accretive terms.
There have to be things that we can buy at lower multiples than what we're going to trade at.
I look for industries where there's synergy.
