If you can count your money, you don't have a billion dollars.

You can do the same thing with $20 million that you would do with $50 million. So at a certain point in your life and in your career, you realise that it's not about the money.

The money can be a hindrance to someone like me because the danger is that you start thinking, 'Is that a $20 million take?' That kind of thing, and being self-critical.

Before we give you billions more, we want to know what you've done with the trillion you've got.

I'm in spend-down. I've got a billion in cash. You can't leave people a billion pounds, can you?

If you have millions of dollars you are not going to get to continue doing what you want. You are into a world of commitment to that money and all the people that helped you get that money.

I made 22 million in 14 years... with taxes, and travel and everything else, it gets blown out the window... which is why I still need to work.

I have these ideas that people go 'Oh, that's cool. I'd pay to see it, but I'm not gonna give you $25 million.'

A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money.
