        We do do it a lot. I’m not sure why, hornyness and tribalism are our other invariants, and those don’t enter into it directly.

      This is part of his hype. He says this often all the time about every company that he runs. It keeps him the news.

      Any company could fail. There is nothing unique about any of his companies. The difference is he says it every week and people write articles about it. Stop giving him the limelight.
