You don't spend much money.
You drive a Toyota.
You'll save up a lot of cash over the years.
He ended up giving us the line of credit on his house of, I believe it was $200,000 at the time.
And we used that to get Crazy Egg going and get it into a place that was working out.
But we got the 200 grand and we had to turn around the business.

So we started taking it.
