The real opportunity: simpler software

`0:16:51`

sometimes. Yeah. Um f first off I would actually let me let me let me answer the question again too and then I'll get to that point. I actually think the real opportunity frankly is in making much much simpler things um in technology things have gotten way too complicated. The amount of tools that exist, great, a lot of options, but almost all of them are more sophisticated than they need to be, are more overbuilt than they need to be, are harder than they need to be. And what ends up happening is software just goes further and further in that direction typically. So I think there's huge opportunities actually in just simplifying common things again like getting back to the basics, nailing it, making it fast, straightforward, simple. I think there's always opportunity there because the the trend is away from that.

Okay. So your physical thing frankly um I think the one of the best places to be these days would be the trades like uh plumbing, electrician, um general contractor, builder, uh mason. These are these are these are things that seem to me to be the safest jobs moving forward. Going to be in high high demand, extremely high demand. Fewer and fewer people know how to make things with their hands. There's a huge need for building. Um, and I think it's like, you know, it's not immediately going to be replaced by AI like all of us on our on this call might be. Um, it's probably not going to be replaced by robotics anytime soon. There's some of that stuff, but when your toilet isn't working or there's a leak in your pipe, you call somebody and they are going to

be in demand. Um, I think that that is a a great place to be to focus and I think a lot of people are making a lot of money in that in that uh in those worlds actually and will be making more and more and more in those worlds. In fact, you see it like uh private equity is actually buying up all these general contractors, all these little plumbing outfits. They know that this is actually going to be in massive demand and a huge opportunity. So, I think if I was 15 these days, um I'd be a little bit less interested in computers and more interested in fixing pipes and learning how to build with my hands and learning how materials work and how to build build structures. I think this point resonated. Mark said, "I actually think physical will be great money maker next five years with the rise of AI." Derek said and trade workers that actually care about quality and care. A similar parallel to AI versus human-made
