I mean, a comfortable job.
Yeah.
My boss was like, you're what?
He was like, don't do this.
You can come back.
When this doesn't work out, you know, it's appreciated.
But didn't want to go back.
But I think that was a big part of it.
I think for us, we spent a lot of time trying different things.
I think that iterative process, but also being like really honest about it.
I remember making some song that sounded very much like an Avicii tonally song.
And we were like, this is fire.
But then we're like, is it though?
I mean, I feel like Alex Porter-Redpoint said this to me in a really simple way, which is just invest in people that are going to do this idea no matter what.
Even if it fails, they're going to start it again from a different angle.
I think then the question becomes, is this a step function better?
Or is this something that can potentially reshape the way that an economy or business or software or platform or service is used?
Union Square Ventures does a really good job of how they think about investing at the edge of ideas.
And then those ideas hopefully become more central.
And then the TAM question answers itself, because if you figure that out, it's going to be humongous.
