I had several dinners with him, hoping he would deliver on his promise of securing billions for global health through his connections. When it became clear that he wasn't genuine, I ended the relationship. It was a mistake to invest time in him and give him credibility. Many others were in similar situations, but I recognize that I made an error.
Speaker 0: Had several dinners with him, you know, hoping that, what he said about getting billions of philanthropy for global health, contacts that he had quite emerged. You know, when it looked like that wasn't the real thing, that relationship ended. But it was a huge mistake, to spend time with him, to to give him the credibility of being there. There were lots of others, in that same situation, but I I made a mistake.
