Age is a very high price to pay for maturity.

Something unique about the Greek system, different compared to Korean, is that it is possible after... you know, during your middle school stages, your gymnasium education time, if you don't have adequate points. then you don't progress to the next level. So you actually, you stay at the same level. So a seventh grader, if he doesn't have good enough grades, he doesn't go on to eighth grade. So sometimes you have those discrepancies where people are very much older than they are because they stayed back a couple years in their grade.

We've been watching oil for so much of this year because the market has been closely linked to it. We saw a little bit of slippage in it this past week. "Yeah, we did because you're starting to see oil supply glut concerns emerge again. We had a little bit of a run-up into the back half of last week as there was some talk that the Saudis may start to alleviate some of their production. But we're actually seeing them produce record levels. You also might see Nigeria start to come back online. That's another concern."
