Just by the way, if you do take a company public, start actually selling your stock. You need diversity in your assets. Yes. And I did that right away.

How do I feel about that? Well, it was a little bigger for me. First of all, let's just go forward. Chewy.com, multibillion-dollar company. Chewy.com is nothing but Pets.com. They don't do anything that Pets.com didn't do. We just did it 20 years. So I would say, how do I think about timings? Everything. So timing's really important. So it was a timing issue.

They went through a billion dollars worth of capital, a lot more than Pets.com did. And you never heard about that, did you? Do you think there might have been a little bit of women bashing going on in there? I don't want to say that.
