I made my kids into Viking fans, so they will carry their misery with them, too. A little disappointment in life goes a long way.

In general, you don't want competitors to understand your business outside of telling people your revenue and profitability numbers.
dinner emails home kids plenty schedule work
I am at home with my kids from 6 to 8. If I have a work dinner, I'll schedule to have dinner after 8. But we're working at night. You'll get plenty of emails from me post-8 P.M. when my kids go to bed.

You've got to give people a disincentive to cheat.

If you're an entrepreneur and you're starting a company, I think the first thing you do is you go and talk to a bunch of people. But then the next thing you probably should do is figure out if there's a broader demand than just people you know. That's where I think SurveyMonkey is pretty valuable to people.

For me, going home at 5:30 is as much about my own choices, but also giving my team those choices, too.

The NBC using us on air is a great endorsement of quality.
great happens helpful incredibly knows obviously people smartest
One of the most talented, smartest people happens to be my wife, so I can get great advice from her. She obviously knows me incredibly well and what I'm going through. I don't know that I've been as helpful to her as she has been to me.
