You have a test literally in like nine hours, right?

0:03.1

Ask me if I've studied for it.

0:06.0

No!

Board relations. So this is you relating as a nonprofit, whatever, relating to the board that helps oversee it.

0:25.0

That not helps that. It's required by law to oversee it, my friend. Required by law.

0:29.9

Okay, okay, okay. Let's talk about your fancy law here. So you're saying, let's say tomorrow I started a board. I started a nonprofit and I had

0:38.3

a board. I could, could I have my wife, my wife's brother, and then that's it on that board?

0:44.5

Shit, there's a part of this that we did go over very, very briefly. Possibly. It's a little

0:50.4

bit nuanced. Part of it is state laws with that, I believe, and I need to double check one thing. So I don't know is how I'm going to respond to that.

1:38.6

Can I laugh that you said duty?

1:41.1

Yes.

1:41.9

I think it would be very difficult with that is the case. If it's filled with

1:47.1

your family members and you tried to put a bunch of yes men on there who quit to actually say

1:51.3

you have a clear cut duty of loyalty and everything's fine. But you'd have to really violate a thing

1:56.9

in order for that to happen. So it's one of those things where it's not necessarily against the law, but like if you, if things look weird, then you have like it's actually,
