I can't reveal how much we sold for, unfortunately, but I could tell you that right before selling, we finished 2025 having done $30 million in revenue.

And now the company's grown.

In January, we just did $5.7 million in revenue.

I mean, I'm not going to lie.

I've missed many classes this semester.

I'm at the University of Miami.

I am a freshman.

Yeah.

I mean, right after the podcast that we did last time, yeah, I was submitting everything.

I applied to every single Ivy League school, Stanford, a few others.

Stanford was my top choice that I wanted to get into.

And just one by one, rejection, rejection, rejection, rejection.

And I mean, I tweeted about it because I had a 4.0 unweighted GPA.

At the time I applied, my company was doing, I think, 15 million a year when I applied.

And I had on paper what most people need to get in, but I was just rejected from everywhere, which I felt was pretty surprising.

There's no way to know.

Yeah, to be honest, it was actually great.

It might have been better that I got rejected from colleges than gotten into any because I posted.

It got like 40 million views on Twitter, and I had a ton of really cool people, like the mayor of Miami.

Texted me afterwards and we actually met up.
