That's good. 15 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,839 Speaker 1: And one guy in Japan just figured out his His 16 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 1: name is Sogi Morimoto and he gets paid six figures 17 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: to be a professional nothing doer. No way, wait, who 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: pays you? So what does this mean?

Like 26 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: if you needed just a friend in a moment's notice 27 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: to do something. If you want to try out a 28 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: new restaurant but didn't want to go by yourself because 29 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: you that's embarrassing, okay.
