I'm not just coming here for a payday. I'm not an old guy at the end of my career looking for a payday. I've got a title to keep.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I get paid by the year, and I try to earn my money.
I hope to work till I'm an old lady.
The accolades usually come when you're dead or too old to get a job.
I get offered work these days.
The day I retire is the day I'll feel old. I'm not there yet.
I want to work endlessly and tirelessly until I'm an old, old lady.
I remember when I was like 19 years old and I started a desk calendar company to pay for my first short film, just so I could say one day that my daddy didn't pay for my first short film. And I really established myself in the film festival world.
At 88 years old - with every intention of living decades longer - I'm still running a company, writing articles, launching new ventures, and fully enjoying life.
I don't want any title. I just say what I say, and hopefully somebody gets it, man. I'm not perfect, and I'm just here and trying to make a dollar, and being real at the same time, you know?
I really moved through my career based on curiosity about something. I never looked at a title and said, 'I want that.'
