TDS Time Machine | Conversations with Authors - Pt. 2

That's exactly right.

The Daily Show: Ears Edition
TDS Time Machine | Conversations with Authors - Pt. 2

Well, they go to investors, like people who are running the savings of this country and say, look, this is basically what's happened.

TDS Time Machine | Conversations with Authors - Pt. 2
