I'm in the lucky position financially where I don't have to do things I don't want to do.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm lucky because my dad taught me to be frugal and save. And that's important because I want to know that I don't have to take an acting job for two or three years if I don't want to and that I'll still be able to make my house and car payments and buy food for my dogs.
I'm really lucky because I found myself in a position where I can do whatever I want to do. I can make records, produce records, make movies, or I can do nothing. I'm not a slave to the dollar.
That's where I got lucky; nobody else is doing what I do or really can do what I do.
Financially, I'm fine. But it's good to work. I'm not capable of doing nothing.
I save money when I'm working so that I never have to take a role simply to pay the bills.
I have the luck to choose what to do in my life.
I have no ambitions beyond being comfortable in what I do for a living - and earning a living.
I feel lucky every day. But I can also trace that luck back to decisions I have made. Frequently, those decisions have been to pay my own way to somewhere I want to be and something I want to do.
I don't need to make a fortune, I need to survive.
I love what I do, and I'm not doing anything either for money or for the sake of some unfulfilled ambition.
