This is not normal.

And it has to do with four years of no IPOs.

It has to do with four years with no strategic exits.

So the engines of growth are undisturbed.

The valuations are half or 40% discount.

It feels incredibly attractive, as attractive as the post-GFC was.

So to say, I could not think of a better activity than working in growth equity at General Atlantic for the next 10 years.

Global growth equity in the middle of the air revolution with the seniority that I have and the dry powder.

Pinch me.

Pinch me because I hope I don't die on a plane crash because it's going to be great.

After that, I think you have to start thinking.

I've been active mentoring entrepreneurs through Endeavor, which is an offer profit.

I'm on the board and I've been doing this for 25 years.

I actually started mentoring, which is an interesting tidbit, when my business was running out of cash.

Dot com sounds exciting, but there was a death, you know, the dark valley of death.

And Linda Rottenberg, the founder of Endeavor, she's like, it is precisely at your darkest moment that you mentor because it's a sign of you have something to give in the darkest moment of the night.

Which is interesting because the whole AA, like I have friends who are in AA, the body system is so valuable because even at your darkest moment, you have enough light to help someone.

And that gives you the strength to make it through.

So I'm a huge believer in mentoring.

That's something I will do for the rest of my life.
