If you want to deal with like pain in the ass investors, go public.
And so and of course what we found is our R LPs have been incredible.
Like our LPs have been like incredibly supportive.
They've been incredible partners.
We obviously we tried to treat them as partners, but you know, it's just been an incredibly productive relationship that, you know, and and as you know, like the best LPs understand they understand venture, they understand the time horizon, they understand the you know, the risk, you know, aspects that we were talking about earlier.
And they've given us license to do a tremendous number of things, you know, that have been very risky, of which, you know, some of our
work and some haven't.
And so it's been an incredibly productive partnership.
And so I I just go all thro all through that to say like I I can imagine venture firms going public.
I think you'd you'd have to have a real theory on the value that you would get and you would have to really sign up for what it really takes to run a public company these days, which I would just say like public company CEOs have a very hard job.
That's a good question.
I haven't actually talked to Hammond about that.
He is certainly uh say this, he's certainly building a firm that could go public.
I don't but I don't know whether he would or not.
that question to my head if I are.
Um
say this.
It's actually uh it's it's actually I think the same answer is your your question of what you care about the five million dollar investment.
There are certain LPs that are really, really smart.
Um, and then specifically there are certain LPs that are very influential in the LP community.
