A podcast clip in which Andrés Morales (Robe Grill’s father) reflects on his child’s future in gastronomy: he views gastronomy as a durable business if run with caution and long-term thinking, warns that fame is only a temporary vehicle (not the goal), and emphasizes patience and maturity as essential for building lasting businesses and positive influence.

Foreign. Likes being an entrepreneur, he likes business and he has a future together with his brothers, I suppose, and with the partners that we have in building something that is more durable, that is more long term. Gastronomy, from my point of view, has more longevity than other areas. That's what I think. There are other areas within communication such as comedy, lifestyle, sports. I think that gastronomy, if managed well, with feet on the ground, with a lot of caution, refined, well thought out, I think it can last for many years. Obviously, hype and fame are just vehicles. They are not the goal. We went to a YP's talk to give a conference to Robo and the families were there and suddenly a kid stands up and says, hey, I want to ask you something. Robe, A 10 year old kid says, how did you manage to become famous? He said, and then Robe freaks out, right? Because he really freaked out. Because he said, look, no, let me explain. The goal is not fame. Fame is just a vehicle to do something bigger than fame. Fame is fleeting. It's temporary. So answering the question, I think Robe has a career that she can build, consolidate, she can do. She can continue communicating for many years, she can influence young people, she can encourage children to be inspired and touch on good things. Because much of what we do or what we want to do is that there are also good things to do. There are also very good things on social media. Right? And I think that's part of the function and what I think Robe can build in the long term. I've tried to emphasize the long term with my children, that businesses, you have to be patient in business, right? Business doesn't happen from one place to another, from one day to the next. You have to be, you have to wait, you have to be mature. And sometimes it doesn't happen and sometimes you want to run away. We're in a very difficult world right now. Very fast, we all want it fast.
