So we basically, so going back and looking at your timing.
So I built the first platform in South Africa from a timeline.
I had funded that for about 3 million of my own cash.
What year was this?
That was in 2008.
Okay.
2006, it took me two years to build that.
Take it to market, commercialize it.
I then ran out of funds.
It was awarded.
I went to the South African government.
I was awarded 10 million from the government because of the national benefits.
No, no, this is excluding because within two days of me being awarded those funds, I was then given access to Australia.
I left South Africa because I witnessed the brutal murder of my father and I chose to leave the country.
So I took my two young kids and started again.
So I entered Australia with no money, no job, no network.
I started again.
I recapitalized the company.
I started out, brought in a good co-founder.
