I love being in the middle of deals. I love the hunt of the deal. I love the underwriting of the deal. I love everything.

Another thing that I love to talk about on the show with with high level entrepreneurs like yourself is on social media and just in general, we all see the highlight reel and rarely does someone come on social media or anything and say, Hey, this is the stuff that went wrong. Right.
