How do you know when it's time? Like, how do you know? It's like, you know what? Maybe I should shop this deal or maybe I should take that call. That private equity group keeps calling me.

So I always ask this one question and I've never gotten the same answer before. So let's say a hundred years from now. Okay. Ashley, you've got bionic arms.

We'll have bionic arms. A lot of diseases will be eradicated.
