I could have started my own team under my own name, but we have a great company and I want to keep it. I told them, 'Guys, you started all this and I think it's important that everyone stays, that everyone has a role and we keep this winning team - because it was already like this when I came. But if you want to be successful in the long term, I'm willing to get more involved and invest, which is basically what happened at one point."
