[How did you find the job
that you currently have?]

This is, actually, I think the way
things are going to be:

"I didn't find it, I created it."

I created the job that I currently have.

And I think that's going to happen
a lot in the future, too.

As a matter of fact, I think people
are going to have multiple jobs.

They'll have jobs
that they're passionate about,

others that pay the bills, I think.

I think that's a really good way to go,

because you'll always have
something going on,

you're always excited about something,

there's a lot more change in your life;
it makes it more interesting.

So that would be my answer to that.
