I think that that's exactly it.
Like I got into the point.
I mean, this was me like, you know, 20 years ago that I really absolutely I just do it.
You know, you have to be like, I got to pay rent and whatnot.
But like, you get to the point where you're like, yeah, no, I don't think I need to do this.
Because also, like, there's certain roles that I get offered because people want to see that character over and over again.
And I'm very particular about like, you don't need to see them over and over again.
Like, you know, you saw it.
And you need a break and then maybe they come back later in a different form and a different, you know, variation, then that's fine.
But I've turned down stuff that was paying well and was a role that was very similar to something I've done.
And I was okay with that because I was like, I don't need it that bad.
And I also don't need to be known as that over and over again.
So what a great opportunity for someone else to take that role and maybe you discover someone new.
Like, you know, I've gotten sometimes where, like, people say, oh, by the way, that role that you were going to do and you turned out last minute, that went to this actor.
And they wanted me to say thanks because they had just had a baby.
They just had a baby.
And they were like, this role was supposed to be Harvey, blah, blah, blah.
And it didn't work out.
And they needed a job.
