The example he gave was that Sam at the time was raising his first fund and I was going to be an investor in the fund.

And so he called me and said, you know, putting this fund together, it's small, limited group of people.

I'd love to have you if you wanna do it.

Hell yeah, I wanted to, of course.

And told him the amount or whatever.

And then he called me back like a month later and was like, okay, like I have the docs all ready and you know, we're ready to go.

And you're still in for this much?

And I said something like, well, I can't, yes, I'm still in, but I can't do that much.

because actually like I have also launched a fund.

And he was like, what?

And I said, yeah, you know, I need to make a GP commit to my own fund.

And so I'm, you know, this is before I sold my business.

It's a little bit, you know, tighter situation.

And I have to reduce the amount.

And he started to tease me because he was like, wait, so when I first called you a month ago, you had never even thought about having a fund.

You have never heard you talk about that.

don't think you'd ever thought about it and now a month later like you already have a fund like a month later like it's raised and done and um i think that's a good example of like yeah some opportunity came out of left field there was this investment opportunity in one company that led to a fund very quickly in the summer of 2020 and um so yes i i like to move really really fast when i'm interested in something but my interest does shift around and um

I don't think this is a good thing, by the way.

I don't want to whiplash people.

And I realized, thanks to Sam, that I was whiplashing people.
