And I went back to my friend, my high school friend, and I told him about it. And he told me, I think you truly found what you were looking for, which is endorsement from your own father. And I think that is really a lot of next-gen. Sometimes where people think that they have done a lot, but they always crave for the approval of their parents. And so... I think I went through that.

I was craving for the approval of my father, and he doesn't say it. He's never expressed it. But the point that really comes to me and asks me for my net worth, for my advice, I know that there has been a significant change of acceptance and the way he perceives me.

Thank you for really succinctly summarizing that in just a short sentence. Really, it does speak into my life. So really thank you, Vince, for saying that. It's been 26 years in the making. So I still believe that I'm evolving. I'm still learning more in terms of understanding my identity. And if I might put it, Enjoying the journey as I go along.

I think that a lot of... I know it's a bit cliche. It's about enjoying the journey, not the end goal. It's just about enjoying the journey. And I think for me, that is what I am relishing at this moment. I wouldn't say that life is a bit of roses. While I may have described everything, it sounds like it was really sweet.

There were a lot of massive challenges and running your own business, running other startups, helping other startups run businesses, there are very high chances of failure. And I think that is something that I've learned to adapt. And I would have been very different if I just worked for my father. where I don't really see it's a very kind of sheltered way of running a business.

I guess for me, it's really about passing my values rather than being so rigid about my processes. So when I say about values is that I truly believe in positive impact. I believe that we're not here on this earth just to enjoy extravagant lifestyles. I wouldn't say I have an extravagant lifestyle, but I'm just saying that While we can have that, I feel that most important is that

leave something that is very positive for your generation. I do not know what my children's generation face in terms of the world. Maybe we're talking about climate change, food security, but I hope that they don't become the liability of the world, but rather be the solution.

My youngest daughter is nine, second one is 11, and the third one is 13. And I share with them basically what I do. And they already know how to use the apps.

And I feel that is what I want to pass to them.

Because I feel personally that if I would try to teach them that, oh, this is daddy's way of doing things. is going to be outdated in the next five years. But values shouldn't change. Values, good values that... In Asia, we have thousands of generations, thousands of years of... great values, great teachings, and they've been brought over throughout the generations. And it's still evergreen.
