I'm not a fan of doing short-form content. And the reason why is I think it's one of the bigger problems that we have in the world today where everybody reads headlines and they don't get the context. And today we see so much black or white. People think very linearly, but everything has nuance. And if you don't pick up the nuance, you're just never going to get it. I'll do a 20-minute video on like a big subject, like George Gammon. He's one of my good friends. He'll dive deep into like reverse repo. Well, I'm left watching that going, what does that mean? Why do I care? So then I'll do a video on like, hey, if you want the technical, go watch George, but let me tell you why you care about this and what it means to you, right? So anyway, I'll take these very complex subjects, make them super easy to understand, and I'll do it in like 20 minutes. And people will be like, dude, it's too long, make it shorter. Like, then just read the headline. So anyway, I'm not a form of short-form content because what can I really tell you in 45 seconds?
