Essentially, every move was, you know, a way to a way to keep providing for the family.

So it gave me a really interesting perspective on the United States.

I've seen a lot of different parts of the United States in the Midwest and the American West and really fell deeply in love with this country and its people.

And so that's really motivated a lot of my life.

Yes, yeah.

Yeah, we grew up, you know, quite poor and, you know, grew up in neighborhoods where, you know, our car was stolen.

We'd come home from church and there's people getting arrested on our front lawn.

And surprisingly, you know, you'd think that that would cause my parents to like, you know, try to keep us insulated and like inside.

But actually, like we explored all around, you know, friends with all the neighbors, that sort of thing.

And watching very, very different lifestyles from ours.

I was friends with the guy who stole our car.

And I think the fact that we were friends gave him some access to be able to steal the car and we forgave him and we got the car back and whatever.

Yeah, it was a very dynamic childhood that exposed me to probably a lot of risk and learned how to take proper amounts of risk and how to not get myself into dangerous situations, how to get myself out of dangerous situations, that sort of thing.

So it gave me a very unique perspective.

It also taught me to work extraordinarily hard.

My dad has worked unbelievably hard every single day of his life that I've ever known him.

And I've always just deeply admired that.

What does he do?

So he's done a bunch of different things, really just whatever he could find to do.

And he worked in marketing for a while.
