So I actually approached my father-in-law who was in real estate before then for, you know, 20-something years, and he got crushed in 2008. And I knew he was reinventing his business and he was doing this creative financing thing. So I approached him and said, I have no idea if I'm going to like real estate, but it's going to be a lot better than what I'm doing here now. So of course, I threw something else on my plate and I was making cold calls to expired listings during the day when I wasn't doing the other 2 things and I know eventually, you know, it took me about 6 months to get my first deal done and it was a subject-to deal. And we'll probably go into maybe what that means here in a minute. I got my first deal done and, you know, right after that I went ahead and burned the boats. And, you know, it's almost 10 years now that I've been either investing in real estate or training in real estate, training people all across the country as well.
