0:00I had said to him, 'Look, if you're going to  hire me," and he was looking to hire me as  
0:04a head of fixed Income for Capital Group at the  time, I said, 'We are probably going to do these  
0:0915 things, and it's going to cost hundreds  of millions of dollars, and we're going to  
0:13consume billions of dollars of seed capital  as we're growing this entity for clients.
0:18And he said, "Great."
0:20And I said, "Great, meaning it's sort of  good and we're going to do a little bit of  
0:23it or you're going to see how it goes as we go  along." And he says, "We wouldn't hire you if

0:54a company. People can wonder what's  happening. Part of the interview team  
0:59was the existing team that I would end  up leading, which I thought was great.
1:03You're able to sit across from  someone who's interviewing you,  
1:06who's going to be on the team that  you're you've been asked to lead.  
1:08You can ask them questions, too,  like, "Are you guys in for this?"
