Sure, sure.

Actually, I worked at a hedge fund for about four years.

I was a stock and bond analyst.

Uh, so basically what I did was I would analyze companies, uh, having to do, you know, companies all over the world, Israel, Brazil, US, China.

And I would basically analyze business presented to my boss.

And then we would buy, you know, millions upon millions of dollars worth of stock, or we would short the stock or, you know, we do whatever we could to make money.

That was the motto.

My biggest win was, I think, buying JetBlue.

It was actually early in the time when they were still growing, and I think I made them within...

I think in about a week or two, I made almost like three or four million dollars.

That was one of the big trades.

I'm trying to remember.

There was another one called Peregrine Software where my boss had had the position for a long time and I had been charged to start monitoring the company.

I went over to meet the CEO in Atlanta and I came back and I said, no, we're not selling the position.

We're going to keep it.

And I think they made like nine or ten million dollars.

Yeah.

And it was like, I think it went up to like 20 something.

And then we just sold it.

It was a few million dollars.
