He's a little more low key on average, but yeah, I think there's a ton of opportunity in these businesses that are overlooked, you know, that most people aren't running into and that it'd be wise to take another look at them, especially because private equity and, and the strategics are buying up a lot of these, they're rolling up a lot of these businesses right now.
So try to find an industry where it's early, you know, maybe say it's the second or third inning.

So you can do, like, your own roll-up, and that's what a lot of these private equity companies are going in, and they're buying all these up.
And so, yeah, I think there's a great opportunity to buy at a good price, get in, learn the business, scale if you want to, and roll up yourself, and then sell the business down the road for a much higher multiple.
Yeah, I think it's that as opposed to working β
On the business, you're working in it.
