Frank is going to be more of the finance and the operation side.

Jake will take 95% of the air in a meeting, but Frank is very, very crucial to their success, but he's probably more risk oriented.

He's like the quiet guy at the poker table.

who's going to be more risk on than Jake, who I joke with the guys at Radcliffe, he's like a neurotic tornado of energy.

And Frank is really an exceptional partner to Jake.

It's that yin-yang compliment of them.

And they're going after, started with veterinary, then it was HVAC commercial side and residential.

Now they've done accounting.

which we helped anchor them in, and our good friend Josh and Karima Thrive of the Bessemer folks have partnered in their accounting platform, gone into youth sports.

Yeah, I'm just so confident in the trajectory of what Jake and Frank will do together.

Do you know the story of Frank?

Tell us.

So Frank, he wasn't like a princeling or anything in China, I think, but middle class or reasonably well off, but clearly a little bit of a renegade.

His mom and dad dropped him off in Orange County in eighth grade.

Irvine, California, Irvine is the valley, like bought a house and left Irvine.

Frank in California and flew back to China.

This is in the mid 2000s.

There wasn't Zoom.

This is not legal.

He basically raised himself from eighth grade, I think through high school, went on to a great educational career, met Jake Sloan doing investment banking at Blackstone.
