What's it called?
XP.
It's publicly traded, $10 billion market cap.
I invested when they were nothing.
I am so proud that I went against every convention and invested on an EdTech company.

There are some places we don't touch.
And I was like, no, no, no, this is different.
This is different.

Went from 80,000 students to 8 million students.
8 million kids every day today use this platform.
And it's world-class.
It's really good content.
And it's an amazing entrepreneur, son of a teacher.
