I mean, investing is fun.

And particularly on the short side, I mean, there's so much humor in it when you detect these companies, especially in the 90s.

I mean, it was really unsupervised.

There were some incredibly fraudulent companies out there, and it was just fun to uncover them and kind of taunt the management teams and ultimately prevail.

Yeah.

I mean, there were a bunch.

There was...

Wow.

There was a company called Actrade that I remember run by a guy who was like a repeat fraudster.

And we uncovered it.

And I know we really got under this person's skin.

And ultimately, it was really just a factoring company trading at...

five, six, I don't remember what it was, some large multiple of book value.

And they had created a new technology called TADS.

I don't remember what TAD stood for, but they were basically repackaging factory securities and saying that they had some special technology.

They were financing refrigerators and things like that.

Well, I started really fascinated by investing and wanting to do it.

I remember when I was 10 years old, my dad was a notoriously bad investor himself.

So he didn't give me any good examples.

He was a great lawyer, not a great investor.
