a night in Nashville it was raining and I was walking to an event. to sell dry cleaning. And I remember realizing I don't want to do this when I'm forty five years old. We had been working for about

One thousand days in a row. We were open twenty four seven. And There was just such a toll that had taken on us. from bootstrapping this.

You were burned out. Incredibly. And Guy, I made forty thousand dollars. You know, I had friends in private equity who were at this point making partner and making, you know, a million dollars plus per year.

That is the first couple of minutes. The rest is 1 credit.
