Exactly right. Because that was my dad's grand slam, right? Seeing three kids go to college, be successful, you know. spend, be able to spend time with him. And that was the other thing, you know, he really made me realize is the most valuable asset isn't the money. It's your time.

That's why, you know, from a young age, I wanted to retire because I wanted to experience everything that I possibly could in this life. And, you know, he got joy from us. I get joy from my kids. And that's the most special thing you ever can have. Yeah.

Yeah, a lot of them.

Yeah, a lot of them.

Yeah, a lot of them.

Yeah, we call that not doing something. Yeah, it wasn't a mistake. It was just, I mean, it was a mistake. I like how you tried to. Yeah. I always try to look at mistakes, the things you did that didn't turn out as opposed to things you did to, you know, the negative. But can you tell the story of that?

So the backstory of that is Bill Gurley came to me and said, Mark, there's this guy, Travis, that has this company, Red Swoosh, which is a peer-to-peer networking company that I think you can help. And so I invested and would spend a lot of time with Travis. And it's funny because back then, that was like 2006, I was an investor at Box.net with Aaron Levy. And, oh, there's one other company there.

But there were three of them where there'd be emails between, you know, where I'd introduce them and we'd all talk in these emails and they'd all gone to be, have astronomical success, right? But so Red Swoosh had its issues, you know, because I was looking at peer-to-peer as kind of stealing bandwidth from the internet providers when bandwidth was a scarce commodity.

And so, you know, what Travis did with that, though, was great. You know, he convinced gaming companies who wanted to do downloads of the clients for those games to use his peer-to-peer and Red Swoosh. And, you know, he busted his ass, and I think he sold it for $18 million. So he did well.
