I'm at a different stage in my life.

It's really the people.

Yeah.

You know, you get to a certain point where it's like, okay, you've got a lot of money.

So what else is it?

And to me, it was always about developing people.

And I think it came from that first experience where I did horrible and I didn't want anybody else to feel that way.

And so I started creating a training manual for my friends and

And then as I started to, you know, build that first business and add on to it, it was, okay, well, how do we make it better so that everybody has a really great experience?

And so we like creating training manuals, developing people.

It wasn't something that I initially was good at.

It's just, I knew the effect it had on people's lives and that's what was really exciting.

Um, so yeah, over time it was just, there's a saying by Gandhi, uh,

The sign of a good leader is not how many followers one has, but how many leaders one creates.

And that's probably the most fulfilling thing to me, especially watching so many people who came into our organization, many of them early on, like first employees, and rose up into manager, regional manager, COO, all these different types of positions.

It's exciting to root them on.

We really try to have a great culture.

I read this book by Tony Hsieh, Delivering Happiness.

Yeah, it's a great book.

It's just this whole focus.
