I mean, we all love a little cash on the left.
It ain't like I'm doing it for free.
But I always thought about this the same way kind of my service in the military.
And I do a bunch of stuff with a bunch of veterans at different times, and I love sitting down with these guys, and I'll never forget it.
We was out at my place in Alaska, and
uh had a group come through that a paid group came through of veterans uh and i was there with them and they were talking about we had an old guy there 74 years old he said he don't tell the veterans thank you and these veterans and these are all tier one operators right i'm talking about navy seals delta force ci these are hard chargers these are guys that you know kill more people in smallpox right real bad dudes and they all looked at him and like why
You know, not that they were offended.
They were just curious why.
And he said, I never served.
I don't know what it's like.
I don't even, he said, I don't feel like I deserve it.
You know, he didn't think that he felt like he had the privilege to tell us thank you.
He said, and it was like, holy cow.
And one of the guys that was there, F-18 pilot, CIA, tough dude, super sweet man, said, I used to say thank you, but it feels weird as a soldier saying thank you.
I get paid to eat snakes and shoot bad people, you know.
I can't really say thank you.
He said he started saying it was an honor.
