You know, it's interesting.

I want to stay in my industry for as long as I possibly can.

I think I'll be in the garage industry for at least another decade.

My biggest issue of, you know, we run just shy of 30,000 leads a month.

So we're in almost 30,000 homes a month.

And why not take that power and continue to grow it rather than start over?

I got a buddy, Paul Kelly, out of Phoenix that's rolled equity five times in his company, Parker & Sons.

To me, it just makes sense to continue to roll because to rebuild a team from scratch, I mean, there's so much camaraderie, like you said.

Here's something that I kind of realized, Mike, is all the skills I've learned, unlike Elon Musk,

And unlike Jeff Bezos, they don't, like, even when I hired my complete staff for my house, my chef, my driver, I didn't use the skills I took from A1.

I didn't, like, I made all the same mistakes.

And it just pisses me off because I'm like, I know better than this.

But, you know, it's like I started back over and I just made so many mistakes.

I didn't put their calendar together.

I didn't have them try out.

I didn't do all the things I should have done that I always do at A1.

Follow the system.

I'm sorry, say again?

What would you like to do as far as EBITDA within a couple of few years?
