And I started in Texas, ended up here.

Where'd you go to in Texas?

Fort Worth.

Lived there for a year.

How was that?

I loved it.

Really?

Yeah, beautiful place.

I like Florida more.

But yeah, Texas and Florida are both awesome.

But yeah, no, I mean, New York's a disaster because I think that a lot of these places that have wealth concentrated, where there's a big tax base, you get these nasty swamp creatures who end up running for politics there.

And there's decades and years of them potentially maybe embezzling money or misallocating money where billions of dollars go disappearing.

You just get the wrong type of people in the positions of power.

And then

It's just layers and layers and layers of bad policies.

It takes too long to get building permits in New York.

They do the rent control stuff.

So all that stuff compounds.

I think 7% of the expensive apartments in New York are owned by foreign investors.

So there's just empty million-dollar apartments in New York that are owned by Chinese internationals.
