I'd made enough money by the time I was 12 to never have to work again.

I used to work, part time, in a deli, in those days when your parents made you work just so you should know what work was like. And you'd make 4, 5, 6, ten dollars.

My dad was an autoworker, my mom was a clerk. Until I was thirty-five, I never made more than fifteen thousand dollars a year.

I started working when I was seven and I was working for five dollars a night at the Met.

You know, from age 17 on, my paycheck was coming from cooking and working in kitchens.

I got a job when I was 15 because my allowance was about $20 a week which in New York was impossible. So I used to waitress across the street from where I grew up.

Let's be honest, I have enough money to never have to work again.

Once I had a steel job for half of a day. I never went back to collect my pay.
