So but I think it's interesting because I think some entrepreneurs don't do it because they almost feel like it's copying or they shouldn't or it's unethical. But it's like that's just business. Right. Like, do you agree? That's just like, you know, and then copy someone's idea. But you should be doing market research on the industry.

Yeah, and I think also, to echo the competitor thing, I learned long ago, and I heard it from some billionaire, I think it's like people think you want to be first, but often you don't because it takes millions to educate an industry if you're first, whereas if you're second, the first person paid to educate them on the idea, right? Yeah.

Now, obviously, it's sometimes good to be first if you're trying to be like a unicorn billion dollar brand like Uber or whatever. But for most, there's normal entrepreneurs that are trying to make a few mil to start, right? Like I say, it's probably good to know an industry that exists that you can do well in to make your first few million.

And then maybe after that, you can go on and create a unicorn of some sort.

Yeah. So, you know, last few questions. We're almost up to time. I do want to shift back to the tech side. I know you obviously you've worked in massive tech teams, but a lot of our entrepreneurs are hiring their first tech person on Upwork or whatever. Right. Like what are some of the just sort of key attributes and skills you want from a from your first tech hire?

Yeah, and I think it's interesting also because... when you first hire the tech person, you probably don't want this super high level person because what? You want someone that's like decently skilled so they know how to kind of tackle those problems. Someone that's a self-starter because even the skilled people, there's hundreds of softwares right now.

So like even that guy, he's like, I give him a new thing. He's like, yeah, I don't know that software, but within an hour of YouTube in it, he's figured it out, right? So he... That's more important. Someone that has that fast adaptability will YouTube it, figure it out.
