Daniel

It was great speaking to you.

So Danica Warburton, super excited to have you today.

And you have a very interesting story.

It might be one of the most unique stories, at least from somebody who's in the investment side, but came from working in a mine.

I don't know if I even know anyone that's actually worked in a mine before, but I can only imagine the skills that mining teaches somebody.

So can you bring me back to that day when you used to work in a mine before you were investability, before you were the person you are today?

It's a very commonality.

It's a lot of commonality, I'd say, between what you're saying and other successful founders as well, where you had experience in an industry.

You're able to take that experience into the industry that you found the company within.

At the same time, you work for somebody and then you realize, why am I working for someone when I can literally do this on my own?

And I love that.

I think that's, you know, it's such a great start because you have experience.

You're already working in it, which is why I always find it's super helpful for people to work a corporate job.

Like you said, gain what you don't want to do.

Like find leaders that you don't actually want to emulate.

And then you bring that to your own company and say, I'm never going to do that.

But it helped you really craft this thing.

So you've helped raise over a billion Australian dollars.

What is one thing that you find that founders misunderstand about raising money?

I find.
