So what were you I mean
thinking of doing here at the time.
I think I told you a story once, which is I was going back to the force talking to you and a few others.
And I sat in my room in an office in London in in England in the summer of 2010 with the like the pros and the minus.
It's like, why should I do this?
Why should I not do this?
And it kind of wasn't very easy to make a decision.
And ultimately you just have to trust your gut.
I did it for two weeks literally trying to work out what the right trade-off was.
And I in the end decided you have to trust your gut, right?
And the gut was
If I really brought it down, it was like if you don't do something like this now, you're never gonna have a go at something entrepreneurial.
And my father being an entrepreneur and I had a family and whatever, and I just thought, I'm at that age, my kids were probably three and five, so it was a little bit reckless from that perspective, if I'm completely honest with you.
Don't tell my wife.
Um but it was just like you're never gonna get a shot similar to this very easily.
But so it's very uncertain, right?
It's very hard to codify this is gonna work, it's very hard to codify exactly what you're getting into.
Um and then I remember there's a second phase in twenty twelve, the end of twenty twelve, and we've been going for two years.
I was gonna ask you about
basically the disaster, is the honest answer.
