                                    Vickie Paladino
                                
                            
                            
                                            
                                            1:28:54
                                        
                                        So I'm interested in taking back a lot of this information that I'm getting today, plus we're gonna have another conversation.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:01
                                        
                                        Because I am gonna do a town hall in my district.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:03
                                        
                                        And this way we could bring in what I hope to be a couple of hundred people so they could actually hear what you have to offer again.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:11
                                        
                                        Knowledge is power.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:12
                                        
                                        People do not know to the extent of what how far you go unless you're sitting here on this panel.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:18
                                        
                                        If anybody's listening to this, on our NYC channel would be which would be great, but most are not.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:26
                                        
                                        So I keep bringing you to the community us taking our knowledge to our communities.

                                    Kevin Kim
                                
                            
                            
                                            
                                            1:29:40
                                        
                                        Absolutely.
                                    
                                
                                    Vickie Paladino
                                
                            
                            
                                            
                                            1:29:41
                                        
                                        So but my concern does lie a lot with the entrepreneurs.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:45
                                        
                                        And these kids, I don't wanna see them give up.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:48
                                        
                                        They're young people.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:49
                                        
                                        They got their whole future ahead of them, and they got some great ideas, but they have no money.
                                    
                                            
                                            1:29:53
                                        
                                        So I'd I'd like to dive more into how we go about doing that.
