I'm generally an optimist. I can see technology making our staff's lives better. Not having to say use Excel, which would have been to the memory, but a little technology in our business.

The fact that we were able to build this firm. from the ground up, almost completely boosts Fred, which I think in this day and age is almost unheard of. And when I say build it, as a leader in fund administration, but in particular, the most complex areas of the county, which in this case is Cripple. We are absolutely considered the leader in that space of technology and know-how standards.

I'm super proud of that. I'm super proud of that I was able to participate in a hyper growth situation. I've never been in a hyper growth situation as either an employee or let alone a founder. And to be able to navigate, only have a few bruises and a few cuts and nicks after that in terms of the indigestion that inevitably occurs. I'm super proud of that.

We are going to be around Touchwood in a few years and Think like a rocket ship when you're starting a business. You have to escape the atmosphere in order to get into space and to your momentum kind of work on itself, I should say.

During COVID, it was extremely difficult to find people, hire people. And I think our process, we didn't really have much of a process. It's pretty much, are you interested in hiring? Okay, come on board. We ballooned the firm to a pretty large number of people. We hired a thousand people in the span of 18 months. I don't even know how that's possible when I think about it, but we did it.
