This one thing happens when you own a private jet...

Whatever you think you're going to use when you own a plane, you will do it 50 to 80% more when you have that airplane.

Cuz it's just the ease of just calling up and saying, "I want to go tomorrow to such and such a place, and we'll come back tomorrow night." If you were going to charter a plane or fly commercially, uh, how much is going to cost me to do that? H, you know, I got a commercial, I can't come back, I got to do the next day. I'm not even going to go, so you won't exercise some of the opportunities as if you had your own airplane.

With an airplane, you would just say, "Let's go," 'cause, again, that variable cost: the more you fly, the less it costs for the fixed cost. So it keeps costing you less per hour the more you fly. It's just incentive.

Yeah, and you can take three people from your office if you have to go, or friends or whatever. It just makes it much more user-friendly when you have your own plane.

All right, well, thank you very much, Steve, much appreciated. I'll be waiting for the phone call when you say, "I'm ready."

Give it two, three years. Okay, I'm a patient guy, I'm not going anywhere, I don't think.
