It's obviously very difficult to do.
Because you're withdrawing at the same time.
The issue is not that you lost so much.
It's that you're not contributing and you're withdrawing.
Someone who's 25, completely different impact.
But because you're withdrawing from it, you're compounding the impact of that drawdown straight away.
Thank you so much for having me.
