And I'm like, you should go be a fashion designer.

I look at them the same, in my view.

Usually high care comes from high intent or an elevated level of desire to succeed.

I'm trying to teach my kids that right now.

I spent a lot of... This is kind of weird, but I kind of wish I had kids pre-IPO rather than post-IPO.

Why?

I think...

Whatever success that I've had and success of things I've been involved with, they are more meaningful to me because obviously I know where I come from.
