Quote

I'm very particular but very thrifty at the same time.

I'm from a middle class family, but my father squandered all the money, so I didn't really run around with rich people.

I didn't come from a wealthy family. My dad told us if we wanted spending money, we had to earn it. So I developed an early work ethic.

Be thrifty, but not covetous.

I'm from a big family; I have four younger siblings. My parents are still happily married together. I grew up moving around a lot, and my family was certainly not affluent.

I am indeed rich, since my income is superior to my expenses, and my expense is equal to my wishes.

Although I grew up in very modest and challenging circumstances, I consider my life to be immeasurably rich.

I was brought up in an era when thrift was still considered a virtue.

I never saved my money. Whenever I worked in the past, I would spend it on my family or my husbands.

I grew up with not a lot of money and I definitely shopped at Goodwill. But even in my most unfortunate state, I was really blessed compared to a lot of the rest of the world. I had a really great chance to follow my dreams and have them actually come true.
