How you both doing today?

Mick, we are doing awesome, man.

Appreciate you having us.

Yeah, I definitely appreciate that.

I mean, I know that's from the heart, so we appreciate that.

So because.

My because.

I think you've gone a few more than one step further than your mom.

But, you know, we stand on the shoulders of giants, you know, like the previous generation.

Mick, what I would say is my because is similar to Crystal.

It's because we've been the underdogs, right?

Because...

We came from living on Section 8 housing, right, because I used to have food stamps as a kid and go to the grocery store because we've been evicted.

So we've been on the bottom and people see us now like, oh, you guys must always had it going on.

No, we started from the bottom.

And because we started from the bottom, we want to serve as an example to others who are starting from zero or less than zero of what's possible.

And sometimes I'm just amazed, like you're standing on the shoulders of giants, just living in North Carolina, living in South Carolina.

Look how far we've come in 50 years, 100 years, where our parents and our grandparents weren't allowed to even buy properties in certain neighborhoods back in the 1950s, 1960s and before.

And before now, we're buying properties on TV.

Right.
