My parents did not pay a cent for my education; they didn't give me a car or furniture - I did that 100% on my own. I had to pay back a lot.

My parents did not have any interest in music.

My dad was a high school teacher and made no money.

My parents had no money, but they had strong values that I've carried throughout my life - things like not going into debt, never borrowing money, never leveraging, paying your bills on time, keeping your agreements, selling customers the right things, treating employees right, and growing things.

If your parents didn't have any children, there's a good chance that you won't have any.

I didn't grow up with a lot of money, so my mom didn't have random money to buy me a car, and I didn't have money to have a car unless I worked, so I didn't get a car until I got my first job at 18.

My parents, especially my mother, were no influence on me whatsoever.

My parents never got carried away with the extraneous elements of being in the business.

My parents didn't really know one another.

My parents just neglected me, I wasn't abused or anything.
