Sometimes I make more money in a weekend than my grandpa made in a year.

Making $1,260 a week at 17 years old? That was a million dollars a week to me!

I wasn't really aware that my father was working for quite a while. I thought it was my mother who had all the money!

My dad was an autoworker, my mom was a clerk. Until I was thirty-five, I never made more than fifteen thousand dollars a year.

My mom was a working woman. She made more money than my dad. Both my parents worked. And this was in the '60s.

Every year of my working life, I have been fortunate enough to earn more money than I have spent.

The fact is, I made $400 a week and only for 26 weeks a year. I never had any money.

This is going to sound horrible, but I don't even know how much I make in a year. It must be, you know, a couple of million dollars, a few million. I know it's more money than my dad, a jail guard, made in his lifetime; more money than I'll ever need.

My father resented that I was paid so much more than he was.

I make more money than I need, ever.
