| 0:04.4 | meetings on boats. And like you said, you would use it more. So when people, they don't go hang out in the airplane. Like we don't hang out in the jet. I get the jet ready for them. They show up. Boom. We blast off literally family vacations or business deals. That's it. That's the two uses. where a boat, there's so many more uses for it, you know, |
| 0:21.3 | and you get enjoyment. I don't think these people get enjoyment out of their jet. It's a tool. |
| 0:25.9 | It's their car. It's literally their Uber. I tell people, I'm an Uber driver for billionaires. |
| 0:31.5 | Welcome to the Rich Strummers Report, where we talk real estate, business, and wealth building, |
