You're making an incredible point, which you're absolutely right. Again, my first tech startup, I did raise capital for Leap Academy. I decided not to. And we've been one of the fastest growing companies in America right now, right? So to me, I think there's also like, what do you think is possible? And is this really holding you back?

I don't know what I would have done with a few millions right now. You know what I'm saying? Like I would probably do more of the same. So I think there's also an element of that that you really want to think through. And again, there's some companies that can't grow without capital, but I think a lot of them can. So that's also an interesting element that you're saying, Lacey.

Yeah, it worked. But tell me, Lacey, and maybe I'm sure there's like a lot of mistakes that you see that people make. But is there one really common mistake that you see repeatedly with people that are coming to you that needs the financial advice? And you're just saying, oh, my God, like this is fundamental, like for all our audience that is listening to this.

if you're doing this, you need to talk to us, right? This is a mistake. Is there something like that that just pops for you?

Make the time. The biggest cost in your life is the money you're not making, right? Or just letting it slip through your fingers.

Oh, I love this. Usually we end up with, what's your advice to your younger self? It sounds like this is it.

Exactly. I mean, the biggest thing is what you don't know, don't know. Just go get the knowledge. And I do believe that financial literacy and financial planning, I wish my kids learned that in school. I wish I knew more about it, but the best time was yesterday. But if not yesterday, then it's today, right? Like that's it.

And I love that. So book that financial planning call. So they're all free calls. Just grab the information. You can make better decisions if you're more informed. But again, Lacey, thank you for sharing all of that. It's just so beautiful.
