It is my responsibility to take advantage of my position to make the world a better place

I own almost 100 hotels in North America. Some of them are only in management, but some of them we have some small stakes in them.

You know, in Saudi Arabia, there is a body of 40 people – 34 people exactly, that once the succession comes, they will meet and they will elect a king in there.
