Yeah. I just agree with the statement. [ __ ] money. Um I I it's just so interesting to me. I've been thinking about this to do with Billy McFarland. Uh Let me Let me just get this in. Hit it. And that's okay. Because if they wanted that, then that's the problem that they're solving for.

0:27Like I get criticized all the time for work-life balance. People are like, "Well, you don't have any hobbies, Alex, and you don't whatever." Right? And I'm like, "I don't [ __ ] want any." So why do I have to sacrifice things that I would prefer to do to do things I don't want to do to satisfy your objective measure of what you deem as work-life balance? Why? >> So that's what what This is what you were talking about. What was it? Optimize for the outcome or what's the metric of success? Yeah.

So my team and I put together the 100 million dollar scaling road map, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we've had and what stages of growth they went through and more importantly where they got stuck and how they got past it. And so we broke it in these 10 stages and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information it'll tell you where you're at and the most important part for you what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources and finance. And so no matter what you're struggling with someone else has already struggled with it and solved it.
