We need to have Sam Harris on here.

0:15.0

Yeah.

0:16.0

Do you have a time machine in your, you have a lot of cool tech things here.

0:19.0

I have cool stuff with not a time machine. You know, sometimes people argue with me. Ty, you don't lot of cool tech things here. I have cool stuff, but not a time. I want to go collect Einstein.

0:21.2

You know, sometimes people argue with me.

0:22.5

Todd, you don't need books to become wealthy. You just go and do stuff. And I ask them, do you think it's good to have smart people in your inner circle? Mentors? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Change your social circle, change your income. Okay. Do you think Aristotle was a smart guy?
