What's a day in the life of Paul looking like?
7:54
Yeah, my life has changed a little bit, right? I'm used to my, you know, for whatever, 40 plus years, I was on like Mike and Nima's side of the space, right? And all that experience, you know, I'm grateful for a lot of opportunities the opportunity to do a lot of things over my career.
8:17
Uh, fortunate on my, my age gave me timing early on when the industry started, but now after I had retired from FIS, uh, you know, we, uh, we, uh, grew a small group of us decided to put Bridgeport partners together.
8:33
Obviously Frank Martiri and his son, who was actually the instigator when Frank had retired, uh, asked both of us to start Bridgeport and, uh, obviously a different world, which was great for me because what's, you know, what I've tried to live every day with is, is curiosity and being open.
8:54
And, uh, what I've learned even at Bridgeport now, um, One of the things I do, because I have all this long, let's call it experience, is I also have to make sure I don't get prejudiced with that experience and being open and learning, especially where I sit now on the investment side.
9:19
great for me that i i'm learning stuff every day as we either engaging with so a day for me could be engaging with one of the companies we have investments in like you know both at two of them now we have a couple acquisition potentials going on uh so you know advising, helping, assessing those with the team as needed.
9:45
It's out looking at new investments.
