I'm willing to walk away.

Then it depends, a battle of wits, right?

So he says, Harry wanted more, do I want it more?

I don't know.

I have not read the book, so... It's quite a good book, actually.

Like, at the end of the day, I don't think being willing to walk away makes you softer.

I think being willing to walk away makes sure that you understand the pros and cons of what you're dealing with.

It makes you understand whether you should spend your time over there or not, which makes you understand whether you can get an outcome that is useful for you as well as the other person.

We have a lot of choices in life once you have the amount of wealth you have.

You know, this is the hardest problem in the world.

I think there's, what, 20, 30 billion people who have been born since the beginning of civilization.

Yet there is no AI that can train us on what we need to specifically do to create the outcome we'd like to create.

It's way too many variables, right?

There are all kinds of people in the world, and I'm sure their parents, some of the parents are amazing, some of the parents are not as amazing.

So I think part of it is you can do your best from your perspective, and I think kids absorb a lot by watching you, your work ethic.

They watch your values.

They see how you interact with them.

Because my daughter probably has a better sense of who I am as a person than anything I could tell her because she spends time around me.

She sees me interact in every sort of micro situation, what makes me impatient, what makes me patient, what makes me do certain things.

At the end of the day, your child believes that you have the best intention for them.
