I love hiring people who are nerds. Love it. Just adore it, right? Because it's not the highest and best use of my time to go and try and nerd on something else. So when I've got technical stuff— and some of you will go, Todd, you're not doing very well at this because I've seen they keep having bloody problems with techie shit— but when I need someone to come set up some tech stuff in my home, oh God, I could spend so long trying to do it myself. Or I guess someone who's a nerd at it, pay them some money to be able to do it. They make some money. Um, it saves me time. And let me tell you, Gilly, you're in on a secret. The wealthy will invest money to buy time. The poor will invest time to get— save money, right? Uh, time is that most valuable asset. And so I want to focus on doing what I do best, and then I outsource the rest. Find something what you're incredible at that other people are happy to pay some money for, make a little business out of it, and like go to town on it, right? I think it's incredible.
