Um, and for us, what we really do is we just spend money when we have money.
So the more revenues we have, the more we invest in hiring or a better office or things like that.
And I think that has, that's something very unique to our company where like when we raised our series, eight people were pretty, uh, impressed that we have so much money left.
But I think it's like, I find it very rational to spend money when you earn money and to spend more money when you earn more money.
And so that's what I want to keep on doing.
I mean, the thing is, they can advise whatever they want, but at the end of the day, I'll make the decisions right.
I did, but I think having some money, as I said, one is I think Mamoun could provide a lot of value and his team as well.

So we were just 14 and now 21.
And I think I couldn't have done that because if I had done that with just a few millions on the bank account, I would have had maybe six months of runway, which I would feel very uncomfortable with.
Part of the history.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
But, you know, so when we decided to move the French team here in San Francisco, I think I took a big responsibility in people's lives.
So a lot of families moved from France to San Francisco and started from that.
