More reasonable growth, more reasonable numbers when it comes to businesses.

And so you're correct.

If you look at the whole country at A round for the whole geography, yes, a lot of them, if not the majority, do have revenue in the A round.

But that's a different beast.

And I think they're looking for something different.

And the types of companies that they grow into is they become different types of companies.

No, absolutely.

It's scary.

And it's something that we're working on fixing, you know, every single day.

Favorite business book, Dr. Seuss.

All the places you'll go, I think the analogies you can make between that book and what a startup life is are amazing.

Um, I like, uh, Ben Horowitz and now, I mean, he's now CEO.

I mean, well, more of an investor, right?

That's most of his role, but he's done that before, but I really like how he views the importance of cultures and companies.

Favorite online tool.

I'm 37.

Exactly what I did know.

Because you mess with the past, you change the future.
