Tell us a little bit about yourself, a
little bit about your background. The
only thing I know is that you're an
amazing caterer. You threw us a wild
event this week. How old are you? So,
I'm 18. When I grew up, it was looked
down upon. If you were a parent and you
had a child at 17, eight that was
working, you were embarrassed. You tried
to hide it. You didn't want anybody to
know. It was a dark secret in your
family. And now, not only is it not a
bad thing, it's like, oh, why you're so
lucky. Your kid has such a drive at such
a young age. My parents have been
divorced since I'm 5, six. I've never
seen a normal marriage. It's it's very
rough for a kid. I don't know how I
ended up normal. I actually heard Yway
Jacobson say this. When you have time
with your child, don't focus on the
other parent. Maybe go one step further
to build the child's respect. Oh, your
your mother did this for you. Oh, wow.
That's very nice. She's really treating
you well. Wow. Or the mother is saying
about the father, you know, like, "Wow,
he's going out with you to let's say F1
racing. Wow, that's very cool. Wow, I
wish I could I wish I could go with
you." I am emotional because what he's
yearning for as a as a child is he
ultimately wants his parents to show
love to each other. Can't have that.
They're divorced. We had another kid on
this podcast who's doing something in
the car wash space. He was doing they're
not doing anything fancy. They're not
reinventing the wheel. You know what
they're reinventing? Hard work, which
when I heard we were hiring somebody
very young who hasn't done this many
times. I've done it many times. This was
a big event. We wanted to have the right
person. I was a little skeptical. What
the heck is going on over here? What are
we doing? But then when he delivered and
when he actually executed, I mean, the
outcome was phenomenal. There's somebody
that has to say, I'm going to do better
or I know what not to do and I'm going
to change it. You're going to be that
person that's going to break the cycle.
You're going to be the one that you're
actually going to know how important it
is to have a nice marriage. You're
talking about things so far beyond your
years. This board that looks amazing and
it smells delicious. So, I'm having a
hard time not eating it.
