I should have known growing up and not having any money ever that I should have kept every dollar that I had.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'd never had money growing up, and it's never been that important to me, except maybe to take our kids on a nice vacation or something like that.
Growing up, I didn't know anything about money other than we didn't have any.
In all honesty, I grew up a certain way. I never had to worry about money... that was my reality.
One thing that people keep on saying to me is that the wealth and the fame must have made up for missing out on my childhood. But the idea of money - putting a price on your childhood - is ridiculous. You will never get those years back and you can't put a price on them.
I've never had money before in my life. Ever. Never, ever.
When I was younger, I liked money - the feel of it. I would sit with my dad and count his coins and be like, 'Yeah.' I'd saved £700 by the age of 10. I thought: 'What the hell am I hoarding this for?' So I bought a drum kit.
My mom taught me not to talk about money.
I wasn't really taught about the value of money. I just learnt it as I grew up, but I do remember my dad telling me that it was important to always have some savings, and that stuck with me. I've always believed that putting money aside is a good thing.
I never had money; I like nice things, but I don't let that run my life. At the same time, I have to let something drive me... so now I let the money drive me.
When I was young I thought that money was the most important thing in life; now that I am old I know that it is.
