and I called my wife and I was like, this
is like kind of scary.

thirty people.

business people that all own, I mean amazing things and
from pre workout you know, to electrolyte companies to hotels
to all this stuff. Well, it was funny because I
was there for the sauna. Yeah, they were there to
pick his brain because there were many Yeah, it was
a lot of networking because there were many moments where

(09:15):
you would just he would just sit down and talk
to you about his life, Like he tells the story
of when his wife got wired the one point two
billion dollars when she sold her company.

Speaker 3 (09:24):
What that was like to see the wire.

Speaker 2 (09:27):
You're like, if you watched White Lotus season finale last night,
the girl at the end, she gets five million. I
don't know if I ruined anything, but you're watching her
go to her bank account to refresh and she got
five million.

Speaker 3 (09:39):

first movie before he speaks here a podcast.

Speaker 3 (09:53):

to pitch him products and stuff. Yeah, and then when
it was my turn to get it's a longed. You know,
I had so much anxiety that okay, everyone get up
and tell you about yourself.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
All that didn't kill you. And this is what I
was trying to tell you guys. Last week. I signed
up for something I normally wouldn't do.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Like, my wife was very excited that I stepped out
of my zone, my comfort zone to go do this event.
And I only did it because I was on no
sleep when I agreed to it, right, like, I can't
tell how many times I tried to cancel before I
went to this event, but I'm really glad I did.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
That's good.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
Yeah, yeah,
