That's, that's, I started selling jets over 40 years ago, and a lot has changed since those early days.

But one thing I really didn't see coming is this: me sharing my life to millions across the world and you guys tuning in week in and week out. It was only a year ago since I started sharing my life publicly, and it's honestly shocking to see how many of you are sticking around to see how I run my business and live my life.

To tell you the truth, it's very humbling. I met so many of you; some of you have told me how these videos have inspired you, others simply that the videos help them learn about an industry you would have never otherwise known anything about.

So I'm at my grandson's birthday, right, talking around things, and he takes his phone out, and he goes like this: "You're in aviation. Do you know this guy?"

Though most of you, I'm sure, are just here for some interesting content and insights. But no matter who you are or why you're here, I just want to say doing this has changed my life in ways I could have never imagined.

So thank you for an amazing year, and here is to many more to come.
