So, they came up with a program called Co-Op, meaning that I can go to school one week and then I can get a job and work the other week or alternative weeks. I found out only recently, 10 years ago, that I was dyslexic, but I needed to find a way to cheat and not go to school because I would accelerate in math and science, but I wouldn't accelerate in reading and things of that nature. I didn't know that I was dyslexic at the time. Yeah, so I was a student, I was in high school. Again, go from zero to one, from a non-entrepreneur or maybe a student. Yeah, I think starting out in the business world. Well, when I was starting out in my business world or starting out FUBU, in general? So, can you take us back to the early days before you were on Shark Tank, like when you were starting out, because I think that'd be a good- Just give me a little overview. Because I think most of the people, at home or watching, identify with that. I think the best way to do that, clearly everyone is familiar with you, you were on TV, apart of a hit show, but I'm actually most intrigued with your upbringing, specifically, starting FUBU, going from, what I call, zero to one, where you weren't an entrepreneur, you were thinking about it. My mission in sitting down with you today, as I said in the intro, is to unpack a lot of what you have in your brain and help give the folks at home, sort of, actionable advice.
