Did you see the Apple Vision Pro demo of someone vacuuming? They're like vacuuming the coins. What'd you think of that? I think that's awesome. And now imagine if you can reward your kids based on how many coins they collect. And it's gonna work. Yeah, kids want to play. What other boring parts of life can we gamify? You're married, so it's like you probably get asked to take the trash out all the time, right? I do, actually. Yeah. Yeah, so it's like gamify all the things that you want your spouse to do, and there's little micro rewards. It maybe doesn't have to be money, it can be something else. What else could I'd imagine like your favorite stores are going to have like little coins. And so maybe you get an Amazon coin or something.
