So I think that just because there are a lot of people who are a particular way and you can absolutely make the argument.

I think you'd have to do real research, though.

You'd have to look at like, you know, the top 100 companies measure the degree of sociopathy.

And you may find that there's some degree of sociopathy because people have to you have to fire people and you have to learn how to let go and things like that.

I think there's a certain amount of that that's true.

But that's very different from looking at lottery winning winners.

And then if I'm sitting there at the bottom, like, let me buy lottery tickets.

It doesn't work well.

Yeah.

Right.

So the majority of people who employ the strategy do not do well.

You just never hear about them.

You just hear about these incredible outliers.

And then people try to understand that.

The other element of this is I think the reason that being an asshole is so attractive to people, the reason people try to do it is because there are parts of them that get taken advantage of that being an asshole would fix.

So if I'm like kind, right?

And if I'm like a dude and like I'm –

My best friend has been dumped by another guy who said that he was going to marry her and he didn't.

And then my friend comes to me and she cries on my shoulder.

And this happens six times.
