Is that okay?

In 2000, moving to New York from San Francisco, I had just been...

abused, ridden hard and put away wet by Sequoia Capital, kicked off the board of the, kicked out of the band I started, kicked off of the board of the company I started, just like, got divorced, just like, I just wanted, I wanted to never go back to San Francisco the rest of my life.

And I moved to New York.

Did I deserve what?

Oh, I was an obnoxious, aggressive entrepreneur that was arrogant and reckless.

Okay.

But also Mike Moritz is a small, vindictive man.

Thank you.

So yeah, I think there's enough blame to go around for everyone.

And also the board was a bunch of obsequious people getting, anyways.

I'm still not triggered.

I'm clearly over it.

I'm clearly over it.

Anyways, I moved back to New York and I started an e-commerce incubator backed by Goldman, JP Morgan, Maveron, Howard Schultz's company.

And it was near impossible to recruit people to come to work for a technology incubator.

And I would take people out who were working at traditional media, who were making five or $600,000 a year.

And I'd say, I can only pay you 200, but I'm gonna give you 2 million options on 2 million shares.

And I would have to walk them through what options were.

Oh, wow.
