When You Look Good, You Play Good!

I love your story. I would love for you to share this a little bit, the story of your dad and what he did for a living and how that's impacted kind of what you do@partners MGU, if you don't mind sharing that.

Sure. Well, my. Both my parents, my mother and father were both born and raised in a city called Galveston, Texas, which is just south of Houston.

During. They took part in what's known as the Great migration of the 1950s, right after the Second World War, where families, you know, black families, moved from the south to the north in order to find better opportunities. My father, in turn, you know, in his trying to decide a vocation for his life, decided he wanted to be a tailor. And he wanted to do that for a few reasons. One, he realized that, you know, and especially if, you know, the culture of the time, you know, people dressed up a lot, a whole lot, way more than they do today, right? So you had, you know, he felt people needed to, you know, wanted to look good. We're going to need clothes, so. And we're going to need those clothes altered. So, you know, he felt like it was a great fit. The other part of it, too, was that, you know, when people have issues with their clothing, whether they get too big, too small, they need to adjust something here or there, tweak something new or tweak something they already have. You know, they're always going to, you know, have alterations done, which for the most part, is done for what the simple need to create. He felt like he could create value. He could create value for those customers of his by, you know, first giving them, you know, giving them what they want and then creating value from the standpoint of being able to, you know, tailor their clothes to their. To their liking so they got. They had intrinsic value because they look good. And, you know, the adage, I've always heard, I think Deion Sanders said it, if you look good, play good, play good, pay good, right? So.
