Great dad. Yeah he would ask me for money on birthdays and you know inappropriate times. And I just wrote him off like 'You're not a father.' I just learned you cannot emotionally invest in people who are not attainable.
What is a normal childhood? We weren't rich we were pretty middle-class. My dad survived from job to job with him taking care of so many relatives he couldn't save any money.
The best money advice ever given me was from my father. When I was a little girl he told me 'Don't spend anything unless you have to.'
No I never thought about my father's money as my money.
It's up to the courage of the filmmakers to make art in cinema not just business. John was rejected by studios he borrowed money and did movies with his own money. You're either courageous or not. You have to find a way.
The only reason I'm in Hollywood is that I don't have the moral courage to refuse the money.
They used to say it was bad for Indians to drink but it's bad for anybody. When they drink they lose their cool a lot of us. Like when we played with Sonny Boy I would never get paid you know. He would drink up all the money.
If you're a kid who's not necessarily attractive and you don't have money and you're not hip and cool chances are you're not going to feel good about yourself and want to be an actor.
You make your first album you make some money and you feel like you still have to show face like 'I still go to the projects.' I'm like why? Your job is to inspire people from your neighborhood to get out. You grew up there. What makes you think it's so cool?
They're very uh you know I don't come from the suburbs and a jolly Disney type of lifestyle. I come from something totally different. And they're cool and bare minimum so it's not always a money issue for me.
I think it would be cool if you were writing a ransom note on your computer if the paper clip popped up and said 'Looks like you're writing a ransom note. Need help? You should use more forceful language you'll get more money.'
The ownership of computers in the home is far less than the statistics show because usually when the computer breaks down once that is the end of it for a long long time. They do not have the money or incentive to get the computer repaired.
My goal wasn't to make a ton of money. It was to build good computers.
The Internet is a powerful way to make lots of money... But we are not going to buy Yahoo!
Because primarily of the power of the Internet people of modest means can band together and amass vast sums of money that can change the world for some public good if they all agree.
Making money is not gonna change anything about what I am except I won't answer the door.
It is more rewarding to watch money change the world than watch it accumulate.
As I have said for many years throughout this land we're borrowing money from China to buy oil from the Persian Gulf to burn it in ways that destroy the future of human civilization. Every bit of that has to change.
Here I am paying big money to you writers and what for? All you do is change the words.
Money is always there but the pockets change it is not in the same pockets after a change and that is all there is to say about money.
Until we totally change the way we elect our leaders until we remove private money from public campaigns lying will be the de facto method of governance in this country.
Money and success don't change people they merely amplify what is already there.
I haven't got a car or a house. I've got a wife but I didn't pay for her! I spend all my money on my glorious wife. She's here with a knife at my throat!
You always hear the phrase money doesn't buy you happiness. But I always in the back of my mind figured a lot of money will buy you a little bit of happiness. But it's not really true. I got a new car because the old one's lease expired.
