But it's definitely a lot of dedication, not just for, you know, myself or the children, but the parents, the family finances, the money that you could be putting toward retirement you're using to buy tennis shoes and restring rackets and tennis lessons. So if you don't make it, then you may never retire. It's definitely a lot of risk.

You have issues that maybe you've started younger or maybe you have your own issues because you have them.

I tend to be slim and you know, I actually can lose weight quicker than I can gain it.

I am someone who likes to stay positive.
