And, well, here's the thing else you understand is, down there, the currency was essentially debased.

And so you don't want to hold money in their, you know, monopoly money, what at the time was called cruzettos.

Because it's literally decreasing in value every day.

So now I travel down there, I took money with me, I took about $40,000 in cash, thinking, okay, that'll last us six weeks.

Right.

I'm down there a few weeks, I'm already...

running out of money.

And I'd gotten involved with a woman that was one of my cousin's friends.

So I ended up staying, like, extend the trip another three weeks.

Then I extended it another three.

But I ended up staying, like, for basically three months.

And so I needed to re-up on money.

And so, like, I called my buddy Aria back in Beverly Hills, say, hey, send me some money, because he was the guy that was responsible.

Like, Aria Nakajabani owned businesses.

Right.

All my other friends were flakes.

Right.

But he's the one guy that I knew, okay, I can call him.

Even though he was part of the Beverly Hills faction, I was part of the West Covina faction.

Like, we were the two responsible ones in our respective groups.
