Yeah, I just didn't spend them for like a year or almost two years, but 1.8 million points. And it was coming up to Thanksgiving and a lot of people were really depressed at that point. It was, you know, it wasn't even a bad economy. They just couldn't go see their families and whatever.

And I just discovered this pocket of people online that were like veterans or just random people that couldn't afford to see their families. So to me, I was like, how many of these people can I use a million points to help? So I took a million points. I think I ended up using 890,000. And I sent people to go see their families. They weren't all like veterans.

I'm not saying everybody was a real charity case, like that actually needed the charity. Some of them were just people that like couldn't afford to see their families. But I got thank you letters from moms. I've gotten like moms adding me on social media for years to come and messaging me like, Hey, here's a picture of that time. You never forget. You changed our life.

So every year I try to like find individual causes where not somebody's dog got sick. Go fund me is not like, Oh, my cousins, cousins, best friend from college is sister died at 30 years old. Let me donate. Like, I don't know these people. I want to know where my money's going.

So when it's somebody who's like, yeah, I haven't seen my kids in two years because I can't afford to go see them and their mother has custody. I want to pay for that guy. For the guy who's like, yeah, my parents are getting really old and they're not going to be around much longer and I can't afford to go there. I want to be that guy's helper.

So that's my philosophy on charity is just try to help others. And the other thing is I run my companies like a socialist, like a socialist dictatorship. Everybody gets a lot of money. Everybody earns a lot of money. And sometimes that's burned me and I've had people screw me.

But watching people buy their dream houses, their dream cars, whether it's exotics or, you know, my COO is making seven figures a year and bought a BMW five series. That was his dream car. Cool. Actually, at least it. But whatever people's dreams are, watching them achieve them is really powerful and it makes you feel good.

And so being able to provide those dreams to other people in need, that's kind of where I like to do my charity.

To me, bury your head in the sand and don't pay attention to it. I try to avoid the news as much as possible. Nobody is writing news to tell you good things. They're writing news to get you to click, to get you to feel something, and it's often a negative emotion. I don't want to be subjected to that. I stay in my little bubble. I keep a tight circle.

I have good friends and I try to spend good time, meaningful time with people I care about and spend the rest of my time working on projects that I think will either better my life, lives of others, or, you know, just having fun. That to me is how to win. I don't think people should be consumed by what's happening in the market because the reality is you have no control.
