You have the changing demographics of the world.

You have what's happening with this alien technology that's now been found on the planet Earth.

So if you think about the global connectivity

that's required to really manage portfolios and how geopolitics is going to implement within portfolios going forward, I think that requires on the ground networks as much as it requires technology.

And it's interesting, I'm sure you guys have had a similar experience,

I read the paper.

I read Bloomberg.

I watch a lot of stuff.

But when you talk to, and I was actually supposed to be traveling last week in the Gulf region, and instead I did a virtual tour.

When you speak to

our clients there, you get a very different picture of what's going on than what you're reading.

And I think those networks are going to become more important in terms of edge as we look forward.

Nothing will replace being on the ground.

It's interesting.

I hope so.

I know the questions I'm asking people are.

I hope that's at scale.

Maybe I should follow up on that.

But the questions I'm asking, I couldn't be more excited about the opportunities ahead for BlackRock, but I couldn't be more aware of the requirement in today's world.

Everything needs to be reimagined.
