I've said this many times, but

I always wanted to live in Laguna Beach, California, Dana Point area.

And there's a Ritz Carlton there.

And when I was a very young man, I didn't have a lot of money, right?

But I wanted to know what it was like to be there.

I didn't live there.

I lived in the Inland Empire.

If you don't know what that means, I live not there, right?

Far away.

I could drive there.

I could see it, but I didn't live there.

And so once I started in business, I would work really hard.

And if I hit my goals, I'd set up a contest with myself.

Hey, if I hit this many sales or I make this much money and at that Ritz Carlton, I'd go there for one night.

Go there on a Saturday night and we'd check into the hotel.

And I remember the first time I walked in a valet, I'd never had a valet take my keys.

And I remember thinking, man, I probably should have vacuumed the car out.

You know, that's, and I gave the valet my keys and we walked in like, wow, marble floors.

Look at this.

And I was blown away by this place.
