And I was just like, you can't go public with this random word in your domain.

Like we couldn't get the other one.

I'm like, if you look at the main root domain, the name of your company, it's available.

And, you know, they're just like, oh, it could be a million bucks.

And I'm like, if you're worth billions and billions and billions of dollars, spend the million dollars to have your proper domain name.

You can also lease them now.

I did not know that.

Yeah.

But at that point, I would at least like if you're telling me you spit off tons of cash and you're worth billions of dollars, just go spend a million bucks.

It helps with marketing because a lot of times when people link to you, they're going to link to the wrong domain name and not everyone checks it.

You probably check it each and every single time and your team does, but not everyone really does.

People make mistakes.

The second thing is, is if you want to be a serious company, but you don't have a serious domain name, people will take you as a joke as well.

And they're like, is this company even grown up?

Should we buy this stock?

Should we invest in this company?

It creates a bad perception.

Still?

Still, yes.

Dot com, short, memorable and easy to spell.
