I think I would look at the product now and say, fuck, all the missed opportunity, because when the core team, when I left and then others left, there was a lot of unfinished business. We had a roadmap that I would say was like, 10 years long, we knew once we achieve this, it's going to open the opportunity to this. It's going to open the opportunity to this.

So I think I would look at the product right now and I would say, it looks the same as when I left. That makes me sad because when I was there, when the team was there, actually we had a rule that every year we had to redesign the entire product. That was a rule. We would redesign the entire experience every year because we didn't want people to get bored and stagnant.

And we didn't want to become complacent as a team. So we would have to have one major redesign every year, which then forced us to reimagine all the features. And I think it was a bit. brilliant to exercise because it kept taking it to the next level. The energy, the passion, maybe isn't as strong as it was in the early days, but that's also, again, natural course of business as you scale.

That is a very sad idea. The journey is part of the reward. Me actually talking to someone, getting to know them helps me learn about myself, helps me learn about them. It's not about a transaction. Romance is a journey. It's not just an ends to a means. I think abstracting away the journey is the stupidest idea I've ever heard. And you learn a lot of that journey.

Number one, you said it, money does not buy you happiness. I think up to a certain point, you want freedom. Money brings you freedom. Freedom does enable happiness.

For me, and it took me a while to see this, but I live a life that is much less than I can afford to live because I don't want chains. I don't want stuff. I don't value those things.
