I grew up in an affluent suburban world and never worried about money until I'd grown up and found wonderfully original ways to screw up my life.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
In all honesty, I grew up a certain way. I never had to worry about money... that was my reality.
When I look back I can't believe how my parents managed, but the cliche is true. We didn't have money, but we were rich in so many other ways.
I'd never had money growing up, and it's never been that important to me, except maybe to take our kids on a nice vacation or something like that.
Although I grew up in very modest and challenging circumstances, I consider my life to be immeasurably rich.
I grew up poor. I never had any money. I was a hobo, you know, ride the freights.
I grew up with no money. No money. I always struggled and had the sense that there was this other class of people who went to college - this was when I was younger.
I had a really hard time growing up; we were a large family, and we didn't have much money at home.
I started out from a pretty modest background, so I always had a pretty good sense of money. I always had to work for my money, save my own money, I always bought my own stuff with my money... trying not to waste money unnecessarily.
I'm too careful with money - comes out of being poor for several years while growing up.
When I was growing up, we never had much money. My parents were divorced young, but I was always surrounded by loving individuals. They couldn't give us riches, but they gave us their stories, their hearts, and their time.
