That is the first thing that someone who is comfortable will say, right?

Because they're just not used to thinking outside the box.

So when you went ahead and you actually launched that business, did you tell your wife?

Did you tell your coworkers?

Were you open about it?

Or was this something that you were just building on the side as you were still working as a law enforcement officer?

I love that.

I love that.

And the fact that your wife was very supportive about it, that's huge, dude.

I think one of the biggest needle movers for any entrepreneur, if you guys are listening to this right now, and you guys are thinking of creating a side hustle, just like Nick did, just like I did, it is very important to find your people that are going to support you through that journey, right?

Because it's not easy, dude.

It's something new.

You may not be good at it, but you start getting good at it, just like the reps, just like Academy, just like field training officer, right?

So, Nick, let's talk about the transition now with ATM.

So you're able to do four to five K a month, which is still great, dude, because the way I look at it, you know, if you were to do four to five K and devote that time in overtime, which I call blood money, dude, you know, brother, you're working 30, an additional 40 hours a week to make the same amount of money you would from those machines, which only take a couple of hours to fill, correct?

Yeah.

Exactly.

Passive income.

So what led you to transition to merchant services, which is credit card machines?

No, I love that.
