There's lots to unpack there, but one of the first questions I actually have for you is why do you think it's hard for men to talk about money in their households?

Wow.

So, well, you're gonna have two different levels of hard, right? So you've got hard when you don't have any.

Yep.

And then you've got hard...

I should say three.

You have...

W- when you don't have any, it's hard because scarcity is, like, the dominating energy, and when scarcity's there, the woman feels unstable, unsafe, un- insecure, which means sexual connection goes down, communication becomes tough and hard to have.

Then you have a second phase, which is when you're building something and it's working, and you're obsessed, and your business becomes your mistress and your, your s- your side piece, and that's, like, the game, and you're obsessed with building, and then you face chaos and destruction, and even when-

All your money goes back into that.

Wow.

This is a...

This is a hard question.
