[01:13:29] S1: This is the infinite game. [01:13:30] S0: Nick Sleep has one of my favorite lines ever. And he goes, the best investors aren't investors, they're entrepreneurs who never sold. 100% agree. Yeah. So that's fascinating. Look at... Okay. The fact is I'm a failed entrepreneur because I had to exit. You had crazy successful exits too from my first five because I didn't find the vehicle in which I can do forever, which is again, when when... Again, like, I'm like new to being relatively known in like this community in the last like five years for podcasts. And I didn't understand because I sat in a room by myself for a decade and just talked into a microphone and read books. And I didn't think about the outside world at all. And then everything kind of came to me. And so now I have to, like, constantly vet everybody around me. And I get a lot of advice from, like, especially, like, older, more successful entrepreneurs who are like, man, you have to be so fucking careful with, like... Because there's... It goes back to Charlie Munger. It's like most people are rat poison. [01:14:20] S1: Yeah. [01:14:20] S0: Right? And it's just like and it's just like you have to, like, vet them in all different directions. But when I... And even people I wanna have dinner with or talk to, like you, you ask a bunch of people, and they're just like, he's obsessed with this infinite game. Yeah. This infinite game. He's like, they... He doesn't need more money, and he doesn't need to do another deal in his life, but he just can't stop.

[01:14:40] S1: But it's it's this joy. It's this thing that every day you get better, and you just are improving. And, you know, I sat with Charlie Munger once in one... After another meeting the Happy Hollow Golf Club where Warren had this thing afterwards. And I saw myself, and I only had one stock of pressure. I was probably 24 years old and 25. And I sit next to him... Well, he sits next to me. I'm sitting. He says he says, He says, sit. Take him. He said, no. Come on. Sit here, Charlie. And we started to talk, and and that room was everybody. Bill Gates was there, all these big CEOs of all these companies, and I was, the youngest guy by an order of magnitude. And he looks at me and says, you must be very wealthy to be here. And I said, actually, no, I only own one share. He says, you don't get it. You are the wealthiest guy in the room. And I said, you're wrong, Charlie. No, no, you are. Why? You have the power of time. All of us here are in our last chapter. You're just starting your time. You will compound for the next seventy years of your life. So never forget the rule I'm about to tell you. You only need to get rich once. And then that was it. He says, and now I'm gonna eat. And just sat down and eat. [01:15:53] S0: I love that. Time is the only true currency [01:15:55] S1: the only true currency we have. [01:15:56] S0: I appreciate you spending your time giving it to us today. [01:15:59] S1: This is awesome. Thank you for having I
