And so then I started playing around with the concept. It's like, okay, well, what would be enough time? Like, would I accept $10 million to— if I knew my life was gonna end in 5 years? Nope. Nope. And then I thought 10 years. Nope. 20 years? No, that's when I might be having grandchildren and things like that. Like, do you see the point? It's— we don't want money. We want to live. We want to live and experience our children graduating, like going to college or choosing whatever life path they do. Do they get married? Do they not? Like, do we have grandchildren to experience? Like the joy of our friend? Like we wanna experience all of that. Like $10 million for me, if I knew I was gonna die in 10 years, it's not enough. I'm like, that's just not enough. Life to me is worth more than that.
