The most important thing, Matt, that I think sometimes people have this misunderstanding of what our surpl means. There's two accounts, a savings account and a checking account. Our savings account is the surplus. We have about $7 billion in [the surplus]. there. We'll get new revenue numbers. We got some of those last week, but we'll get new revenue numbers updating that. We probably have around $3 billion in our checking account. (02:12–02:14)
