This is a while back now.
Well, it was in the six figures, you know.
I was about 28.
Yeah.
So, you know, we had just made up our minds even during inbox too, that, you know, this was not the first company that we were going to start, that we were going to, you know, we were not just going to like, you know, whatever our reserves we had that we were going to sit on them or invest them in some mutual fund or something.
No, we were just going to start a new business.
And this time around, we had a bit more leverage as well because, you know, we had some, we didn't have to raise money immediately.
So we could actually, so that was, that was pretty clear actually from the outset.

And that's the company I'm building today as well.
This time we really went more to a business market, so not so much consumer, what Inbox 2 was.
And do you want me to explain a bit more what Fileboard does?
Yeah, it's primarily my co-founder, Vasim, who was there with Inbox2 as well.
So I think that's what I mean when I say we've been together for over 15, 16 years.
We've known each other since the beginning of the millennium.
And I think that's really been a key of success as well for us, where I'm really a more business-focused founder and he's our CTO.

uh no i think it also kind of falls in place you know so to just kind of give you a bit more context when we started out with inbox too there were more founders so and they just didn't make the cut you know so that you know it takes a natural progression people fall into their roles uh you know you understand what you can expect from somebody so you know that 50 50 split kind of like you know had it not been you know uh the right thing it would have also kind of created a lot of frustration and irritation and also are there
