And you look back and you're like, oh yeah, we basically bailed Mexico out and cleaned it up and everything went on as it was.
But you forget as you're going through that,
These things all take a lot longer.
Your memory shortens up.
It took a lot longer and it took a few go rounds.
And what I learned through that whole thing was, because I went through a bunch of these crises, there was the 94 Mexican peso, 97, the Asia crisis, Thai bot.
I don't know if you remember Thai bot crisis and Korea chai balls and all that.
And then 98 was Russia.
2000 was Argentina peso crisis.
And then we had the, you know, GFC.
So there was a series of rolling crises and all in like the first 10 years of my career.
So that definitely kind of wounds your ability to stay perma bullish when you're going through a bunch of rolling crises.
