Life is good. I feel good. A lot of fun, stimulating stuff going on. We're in this sort of go-go era. Everybody's lost their mind, texting me shit coins all night. It's great. It's good to be back.

Good question. Well, I got a book behind me, wrote a book about it. This idea of, you know, burn the boats and commitment. I think the simple answer to that is when I was very young, I had to make a really radical decision in order to escape out of desperate poverty. I grew up on nothing, selling flowers on street corners and eating government cheese and taking care of a sick mom.

Anybody out there who's had to deal with the desperation of having a sick parent understands how that just changes your brain chemistry, to be honest. And

and your decision-making and when i was young i made a radical decision to drop out of high school at 16 to get my gd so i could go to college so i could get a job making eight bucks an hour literally none of this is hindsight bias that was my decision making and everybody had told me at the time you're gonna be branded a loser for the rest of your life and and i had to come up against conventional wisdom to make that decision and it was the single greatest decision i ever made in my life

That single decision to drop out at 16, start college at 16, pulled forward my entire career. And Warren Buffett talks about this all the time in the context of money, about compounding. But he doesn't talk about it in terms of career. The sooner you put your ambition into production, the more years you have to reap the exponential gains.

And so when you try to figure out how does this all hold together, all these companies, these different careers, it's just this pattern playing out over and over again.
