Yeah, well I was almost 11. It was like 10 something. 11 would have been a lot better. Okay, I guess it's not a cool story. Hey, when it's 10 and change or 11, you really hope it was 11. Yeah, okay. That's unbelievable to me. You had no savings at the time. You were kind of a starving actor, but to only have $10 in this town, that's pretty crazy. Yeah, I'm a procrastinator. It was time to go and get a real job like two years prior to that. I should have gone and got a job doing something. But I just said, no, no, no, those big things right around the corner, right around this next corner. No, not this corner, it's the next. It's the next. There's a corner coming up. But you know what? So many actors in this town say that and it never happens. And then for you to say, no, no, no, it's coming, it's coming, and then Friends comes. What an amazing thing. I think I just was, you know, right place at the right time, was really fortunate. You know, God bless me. Yeah, what job would you have gotten, do you think, if let's say friends hadn't come along and you just had to get a job just to pay the rent, what would be your first choice? I guess I probably would have scoured the neighborhood for like a construction crew and got on a construction crew.
