It seems like the music business has really changed a lot through the years and entertainment business Would you encourage your children or grandchildren? You're so family oriented Would you encourage your grandchildren or children to go into the business? We have one son who is in the music business And I encourage my kids to be the best at whatever they choose to do Would there be any counsel regardless of what they do? I guess but any counsel in particular particular you give your children I would tell them to do the best you can and do it because you want to do it and not because you have To do all right So I guess my question be to anything to protect themselves against guard themselves against any to be the best they can do But there's anything they need to watch out for I would say that you Just watch out for Disappointment don't let the success go to your head and don't let the failures go to your heart.
