Do you like new things?

Yes.

He's like, your blood's going to turn green.

For me, it was always about having a really good product, making good returns versus other people.

I wasn't so outcome focused.

I've always been about trying to make sure like authentically feeling like I have an idea or a product or something that's just very original and very what we believe in.

You can use

a fund as a effectively a mechanism to actually take that view.

And the thing I loved about it too, is that if you have good, I've always had the view that if you have good performance over time for long periods of time, that just, you will have clients forever.

They trust you and you do what you say you're going to do.

It's like a pretty good framework for how to operate.

And if you can do that consistently for long periods of time, you'll always have it.

I didn't realize how much I was going to love the business from the beginning, which is like, where else can we be in the middle of compute, oil and gas, software, healthcare, being in the middle of all these conversations globally.

It is the eternal learning center.

And I don't think I could do anything else.

And then people ask me, you know, are you ever going to stop?

I don't think I'm going to stop.

I don't know how I stop.

I love some blueberries.
