Married with two kids, 15 and 13.
Two kids.
Yeah, two kids.
I'm working very hard on raising, hopefully, future generation of leaders.
Well, I met Steve Jobs when I was 20 years old at Apple because he wanted to buy my company.
I was in college.
I was an entrepreneur.
And he gave me a lot of advice then, and I didn't follow it.
And I wish I did.
Name one.
Name a piece of it.
Well, he said, you know, we were using the software we made was called Jane.
It was for the Apple II.
He said, you should be working on the Mac.
And we were like, eh, Mac is not going to work.
Because that was before the Mac was launched.
It was 1984.
And then we're like, yeah, we don't think we're going to stick with the Apple II.
Big mistake.
We didn't understand how platforms shift and change, right?
