Basically, what you need to become an ocean farmer is a few acres of ocean, which you can ad license from your state or local government fairly cheaply, a d then to buy some gear, all of which is really cheap, all in about 20 thousand dollars. So let's say i do have 20 thousand dollars lying around, and i love this idea, but i don't actually want to get wet myself. How can i invest in someone who wants to do it, without necessarily trying to bigfoot them and turn this into a total industrialization of ocean farming? I

mean, love people who want to get wet to be out there. But if folks have some money and want to participate and invest the industry, there are some really interesting ways to do it. A lot of farmers will get started, but they need money to scale. You don't have to just be an ocean farmer. There are all these other jobs. There are hatteries right now that we have there in alaska, other places that need community college level workers. So there is going to be a whole job pipeline. We need engineers, we need policy people. So it sort of all hands on deck. So maybe you don't want to be out there with a sledge hammer and the winter, breaking ice off the gunnels. But you know, hatcheries, ey're nice and warm and te don't have to get up so early.

So you're how old now? I'm forty eight. So let's say we subtract 31 or two years and your mid teen age friend smith, and you're in trouble and probably heading toward more trouble. If someone like that is listening to this, now, what do you tell them?

Kun of it cliche, but you're struggling ecause life is organized in an absolutely ridiculous, painful, awful way, right? They've put you in schools that fundamentally and are not built to educate. They put you in job s that are absolutely meaningless in demeaning. So take that energy. I know you're right that you're revolting.
