Like literally pinching ourself,
So we structured the company, set up all these trusts and got all the paperwork ready.
It took about six months to get everything ready to sell.
Did you have a mentor at that time?
Don.
My good friend Don Weir, which is out of Fort Lauderdale.
Shout out, Don.
Yeah, he owns a wealth financial company.
He manages people money.
A lot of athletes he manages.
Got it, got it.
And very, very big entrepreneurs.
But he was helping us.
He put us in contact with a law firm that could structure trust because when you get all that kind of money, you need to be protected.
I don't know anything.
I can't talk about it today because I had people doing it for us because I didn't get it.
But lawyers were structuring the trusts.
They set up certain accounts for asset protection and all this stuff.
Because literally for us, I went from the crack house to a call center to saying I was going to be an entrepreneur.
And seven years later, which it went like that, we're talking about a massive exit.
