After my father died, we were pretty much wiped out financially as a family, so I decided to give finance a try.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Upon the death of my father, our family and myself were emotionally and financially exhausted.
My dad told me he wanted me to join in the business, but nothing was firm. He was quite young when he died, so we hadn't talked about it in depth.
My dad was a baggage handler at Heathrow and careful with money. He worked hard and had three jobs when I was young. I wish I'd inherited his care for money. Sadly, I've grown up to be rather scatty when it comes to finances.
Shortly after my dad died, my mom figured that if I could do a few commercials, I'd get a college fund.
I merely consider myself a father, and one role of a father is to provide financial resources for his family.
My dad was rubbish at all other aspects of his financial life, but he's pretty good at paying the rent.
I had to escape the destruction of my father's bankruptcy and all that difficulty.
I had one year of struggle. My parents were always there, but I didn't want to rely on them. Now it's moving pretty fast. I'm not rich, but obviously this is fantastic. All I know to do with money is put it in a shoebox anyway.
The real estate business was something Dad and I could do together.
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!
