Well, I think to the point that Ken Griffin of Citadel just made, and he's one of our members as well and is a great corporate citizen of New York and Miami, he made the point about the concerns about the high expectations that...

Mayor-elect Mamdani gave to his voters, and he, to his credit, brought out 170,000 new voters, mostly young people in the primary.

The cutoff age for his voter support was 45.

So many of us are beyond that point and looking around and saying, oh dear, does he have the seasoning to be able to do this?

And I think that he's got the energy and the intelligence, and it's up to all of us who have a little more seasoning

And to be helpful.

And so that's why I joined the transition team and was happy to do that.

And I'm working on the economic development workforce activities there.

But in general, I think working with him to capture the enthusiasm.

And the energy.

We came out of the pandemic very negative.

And we lost a million jobs.

And then concerns about the cuts from the federal government on entitlement programs, whether it's Medicaid and health insurance, that there's the fight going on now.

This casts a real pall over New York City, which is very dependent on those funds.

So I think that what he's brought is a positive energy and we ought to capitalize on that and hopefully he'll be the best marketer this city has ever had.

I am definitely not at my age looking for a full-time job.

I'm trying to get away from a full-time job.

I am outgoing, and I do not plan to take another job, but I do plan to help the new mayor if he wants it.

Well, I don't know in what capacity, as I say.

I'm there.
