Use it however you want.

Success.

Great success.

Kicked another kid.

I mean, for one of it is like, yeah, the manufacturing, the tooling that they use in manufacturing and to do things in a cost-effective way is really different.

Like I can make a one-off product.

Then it's going to take me 17 hours, but obviously you can't spend 17 hours per calendar when you're doing something in factory.

I think it's that like quality control is such a beast.

You cannot trust anybody else.

telling you that things are going to be okay.

You have to have such trust issues.

And it's also terrifying.

I mean, as somebody who's doing everything independently, I haven't raised any capital for it.

It's all self-invested and we're doing it all in-house.

It's just, yeah, I could buy

10,000 calendars, but then what if all of them have a manufacturing issue?

Or, you know, it's just terrifying because the risks are so high.

But also, I got to this point where, for one, this is something that I wanted to do for a long time, but something that going through health problems taught me is how fragile my business model is.

Because, I mean, I'm basically running an influencer business where...

I make videos on YouTube and then I have an ad spot and I talk about a brand.
