Um
including working in um businesses that I would never work in today.
I'm you know, for I'm not interested in, you know, B to C internet businesses, even though I did participate in some of those.
I think when you get closer to the end of your life, I'm um in my sixties now.
The only thing I think is worth spending my time on.
Is

And solving human health problems, because I think when people have health security, they're much more likely to look after the future.

Time frames matter a lot.
If if if we think about a day, um we we come up with a different solution to problems than than if we think about our kids' kids' futures.

And um
You know, that I began to shift my life much more fundamentally toward
longer term purpose.
