Let me ask you this, what do you see, is the BIGGEST RISK that you face in this marketplace? And just kind of the near future, as you, you know, work with your your investors and trying to totally coach steward for their money?
Vinney Chopra
Totally, you know, I'm so glad you're asking that. I've raised like, close to 200 million or so. But you're right, investors want to save money? What if when you die, you know, or something happens to you, right? What what's the risk involved in that, and then when I took the key man's insurance, and then our daughter is in it, now, she'll step up as President, my wife is also injured, our legal, you know, team and everybody, our accounting department itself, the other parties, you know, during the properties we buy, so there is insurance to be gotten at every point of the property, the loss of income insurance, those are the risks also, if some burning, you know, something fire comes, are like that. So, that is other risk. The other risk, which I got hacked, you know, I think I'd like to mention, is the cybersecurity risk. And that's a big one nowadays, you know, with everything going through, through the computers and everything. So, you know, there are so many different directors, insurance risk is another one. You know, the big thing is contractors who work with us to do capex jobs and everything, we try to save money, but it's not worth saving money, unless we want to make sure contractors are well bonded in also have, like, you know, millions of dollars of insurance, right, you know, when they come to work at our assets? I don't know if that's the question, you were really posing, the biggest risk I find is that you want to do legal way to raise money, and then take care of the investment of the investors. They know, fiduciary responsibilities the right. So as a CEO, I definitely have always felt each asset I bought, I bought 37 Now or something, you know, and I'm on the loan on all 37 Not too many GPS, you know, cold GPS or anything, I don't believe in that. Maybe just three I have done it, you know, and then with my partner integration now, you know, like that, but other 27 or eight, I was the only person but, you know, the key thing is, you got to mitigate the risk for investors and mitigate the risk for the well being of your company. So you are in the right business. You are there, you know, Because insurance, it's an investment, I always look at it as an investment. It's not an expense, because I had lawsuits of $3 million $4 million lawsuits, which I, because of insurance, I walked away with giving zero money, zero money, and they settle the mediated and all that stuff. You know, so when you are in a business entrepreneur, like me and anybody, there are risks involved in people suing you and other stuff like that. So I always feel insurance is an investment, you know, yeah.
