At 25, would I say that, you know, looking five years from then, I'll be running a Pelosi Stock Tracker, building an app with the slogan, invest like a politician, having that thing become a thing?

I quit my New York city job when I was doing finance and I started working on my family company where we would sell sports compression products, like little ones with numbers on them, a custom ones that you would get for your kid for, you know, peewee football. And I was so sick of the finance grind in New York that I was like, I'm going to work on this family thing.

Where in New Hampshire? Bretton Woods. Great, great mountain. Very family friendly. And this is my phone. We're all up there. And then when COVID hit, moved back in with my family.
