It was awesome to meet Kirk and his sweet wife at the event. And zero anxiety? That's a huge change from the old you. Well done.

Maxim-it was great to see you at the conference. It felt like a family reunion for us too! You ARE genuinely interested in people, a positive force, and a reliable, competent, confident and yes...dangerous... man.

Maxim — I really appreciated reading this reflection after sharing a few conversations with you last week. It was clear throughout the conference how much sincerity and effort you brought to your role — not just selling books, but connecting with people in a genuine way.

The energy you and your family put into making Plan B such a meaningful gathering was felt by everyone in the room. What you’re building — as a young man finding his footing in a world that’s often cynical — is exactly what gives many of us hope for the next generation.

Keep that curiosity and discipline alive; both are rare. Uruguay — and this whole movement — is better for it.

Thank you, Eric. That means a lot to me and, of course, it means a lot to my family as well.

It was great to meet you in person. Looking forward to having you down here in Uruguay, too. I have a feeling that we’ll see quite a lot more of each other going into the future.

Thanks again, Eric.
