- 8:25sometimes
- 8:25I

- 8:27to
- 8:27put
- 8:27a
- 8:27value
- 8:28on
- 8:28what
- 8:28I
- 8:28do.
- 8:29You
- 8:29know,
- 8:29there's
- 8:29no
- 8:29physical
- 8:30product
- 8:30there.

- 8:41not
- 8:41realized
- 8:41the
- 8:42impact

- 9:02And
- 9:03there's
- 9:03been
- 9:03a
- 9:03couple
- 9:03of
- 9:03times
- 9:03this

- 9:09was
- 9:09paid
- 9:10and
- 9:10I
- 9:10wasn't.
- 9:10And
- 9:11that
- 9:11moment
- 9:11made
- 9:12me
- 9:12feel
- 9:12so
- 9:12undervalued
- 9:13because
