Nowadays skills are important in our life, and I think they are essential for me as well in my today's life as I am doing ACCA here. So sometimes I don't have much time to learn skills formally. So rather than being formal, whenever I got enough time from a busy schedule, I went to my friend who is working right now in a firm, KPMG, and he was doing audit there. They are working there as an auditor in their audit department. Well, it's a skill that is basically related to accounting and the way he was taking care of the documents and compiling all that information, and after that, that information is used to put into Excel, where we have to make proper notes and how to make financial statements properly and with the relevant information. And that information that shareholders don't even need, we don't have to put there, but some information he put in and where, which is not, so he told me all about that. And as I told you earlier, he was my friend, and I was sitting beside him and observing him for a time, what he was doing and how he was doing all that work. Mostly he liked to ask questions in their audit. When they go to a client, he usually goes there and asks questions for their data, as well as if there are some problems in their data. If there are some problems, we can communicate with them, and he told me how to communicate with them. And I learned this because I was busy in my studies, so I don't have enough time. Whenever I have time, I go to him.
