Tetragrammaton I'm the kid in school that I love technology, I love computers, so exactly as nerdy as you would imagine.

But I was also a kid that always ended up figuring out what everyone else was into, so I would buy a lot of, I don't know, magic eye books or something, and then sell them to my classmates.

So I like technology and to be able to do more of the technology, I need money, and to make money, I sell something to profit.

And so this was a full line to my childhood.

Business was to support your technology habit.

Exactly.

Jensen Wong was the founder of Nvidia,

who's like now one of the biggest companies.

I got to meet him at some point a few years ago.

And then I told him that to buy his first product

when I was, you know, my teens,

I actually literally went to the hospital.

In Germany, they pay you to donate blood,

and I have all positive, which apparently they were very excited about.

And so that was my first product market fit.

It was like I bled for his product.

That's what I told him.

And he looks at me and says, you'd be surprised

how often I hear stories like this. Like, wow, you know you have a great product. So,

anyway, so I need money. So many years later, beginning of Shopify. So this is the end, like in

2004, I moved to Canada with my now wonderful wife. How did you decide to move to Canada?

So my wife is Canadian.
