Like money, who doesn't want money, right?

Like I'd like to have more money.

I'd like, you know, sure.

Really, I want to have a life that I look back on and it's like, man, that was interesting.

It went a lot of different directions.

I've been the lead singer of a band.

I've played college basketball.

I've started companies.

I've worked in the White House.

I've worked at D&I.

All these things are like, wait, what?

You did all of those things before you were 40?

Yeah, because I want to do interesting things.

So when the opportunity came for the president, it's like, do you want to come work in the White House?

Yeah, I want to work in the White House.

And then the White House counsel said, okay, you got to sell your company.

I said, oh, okay.

And so, you know, that wasn't ideal because I had the people who were interested in buying the company knew I had to sell it by January 20th on inauguration or I wasn't going into the White House.

So I had a short fuse there to sell it.

So that wasn't fun.
