And when I came off that loss, the party came to me again and said, hey, would you like to be controller of Lehigh County?

And I was like, what is controller of Lehigh County?

So I really had no idea.

So that's what I did.

I ran and I won controller.

And my goal was to figure out how I could help the people using that position and being creative around financing.

I hate waiting in lines.

And my wife was in, well, we were in line to, you know, pay for groceries.

And I'm like, I'm just going to go watch TikTok.

And so I was watching TikTok, you know, just kind of wasting time, scrolling away.

And a video came up.

And then she said Allentown.

And, like, so then I paid attention.

And then she said Children and Youth, and I was paying more attention.

I'm like, yeah, there might be money there.

Let me go find out.

And so like I immediately emailed right away.

But he said, if you're willing to share more, I am willing to listen.

Thank you for your time, Mark.

And by the time I was done emailing, I helped starting to unload the groceries.
