Steve says being off during COVID probably gave a lot of people a little bit of a retirement teaser. And that's a really neat observation. I hadn't thought of that. And there's a bunch of parallels. Like when we were all sort of just waiting to see what was going to happen in the pandy. Like we had the fear that sometimes you have in retirement. We had the uncertainty, especially about the future. Like we didn't know what bad news was going to come tomorrow. We were talking about health a lot. Like, you know, health of our friends, health of other people, our own health. I think you're right. Like I think the pandemic was a bit of a retirement teaser. The only thing that it sort of like doesn't do credit to is it was all the bad parts of retirement. Because we were, you know, we were off. Yeah, which was nice in a lot of ways. But we didn't have any time to prepare to be off. And we didn't really have anything to do. It'd be like if I retired today and the whole world shut down. It'd be like the weirdest, most dystopian retirement ever. So, you know, your point even hits home really well there. In that anyone who experienced the boredom and the uncertainty during the pandemic. You know, they might look at that and say, well, I've been through that. And I don't want to retire. But just remember, retirement isn't like the pandy at all. But it was, you know, to Steve's point, it was like a little teaser of what it's like if you retire without any preparation. And you just jump in. And plus, you know, everything being shut down made it super, super weird and terrible. But that's a really great observation. Thanks for commenting.
