Q Uber credits and all that. So how did you even figure out this was a thing? Uh, I want to hear that for both of you guys. Cause this is, this is y'all's game and it's a game I didn't know about till much later in life, but you guys discovered it kind of early. I want to hear the origin story. How did you guys even get into that?
A Yeah. So this was like during like the moneymaker, you know, world series of poker was a big thing and you know, All of my friends and I were playing poker just around the house. And then online, you know, there was a bunch of poker sites and I saw one of the poker sites had like a poker chip set and they would give it to you for free. And I was like, well, how does that work? Nothing in life is free. And I figured, oh, they're giving it for free because they're getting like 250 dollars per person they end up sending. So at that point I was like, perfect. I've got a lot of friends. And I'm just going to kind of make the difference. I'll give them 50 bucks to deposit and I'll make, you know, the 200 dollars that I get paid from the, uh, you know, casinos and sports books and poker at that point.

Q but you get the, the, the upside of my, my work. I, I almost find it sometimes hard to even recruit people to work at this point, because I'm just like, I don't know, man. I just, I philosophically don't love this path, but then I also need to hire employees all the time. So I'm like, you know, it's not, cause it's not very productive. You ever have that?
A Oh, totally. And I feel like actually it's been actually one of the most rewarding things of my company is like watching the people grow. You know, we would hire them and I'd say like, oh, I just need you to kind of, you know, write a couple pages of content and then they do a really good job. It's like, oh, do you want to be an editor of this website? And then, oh, do you want to manage other people? And so like, you know, The businesses I sold, I made sure the people that I was working with got really great jobs because I feel like, you know, sure I made a lot of the money, but I want to make sure that like your career is set and you are in the best position possible to really, you know, crush it where, you know, with what you're doing and what you do after your first sale.
