Not everybody.
We're serving at the pleasure of our LPs.
The most important thing that we do, the most important thing that we produce is trust.
They're trusting us.
And by the way, these LPs, they do.
But at the end of the day, it's a leap of faith, right?
Because they are giving us capital that we will deploy in the future.
So they have to believe that we will do the right thing.
And at the end of the day, unless we remember it's their money we're managing, then...
If I were an allocator, I wouldn't be happy with somebody referring to their capital.
Some are little brush fires and some are fires that could get out of control.
So at the end of the day, it's my job to react to things.
If they're potentially existential, then I need to react.
But other than that, I, again, as I said, I'm obsessive about to-do lists and I try to prioritize the things there are.
I think one of the important things, and it's very difficult for people in my position to do is to say, okay, well, if we're fighting fires and just dealing with things that are relevant today, if we don't allocate time to figuring out what we need to do to get to where we want to be in five years, whatever that is, right.
It doesn't matter if you don't step back and invest the time.
to help us become what we want to be, then we'll wake up in five years and say, where's the time gone?
It's a timely question because we had a meeting recently with senior management where the conversation was primarily about what do we need to do today, but if we want to be here in five years,
What are the pieces we need to put in place?
And those things are long tail items, right?
