Hey, I just wanted to say that I love what you're doing with Alpha Flight. As a young person who's just gotten into just finances and trying to figure out the whole world of what to do, investments, et cetera, I think this is an incredible resource. There really isn't much education out there just for the general public, which leaves such a big gap, as you mentioned. Yeah. I just think this is an incredible resource, especially on a video platform as well
We're not looking for movie stars and things like that.

So this is really an important conversation. And I'm glad you shared about your company
