Every few seconds it changes - up an eighth, down an eighth - it's like playing a slot machine. I lose $20 million, I gain $20 million.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
One of the things that happens when people make the leap from a certain amount of money to tens of millions of dollars is that the people around you dramatically change.
I guess if you're a normal person and all of a sudden you're getting $10 million a year, it can go to your head.
You may lose by it now and then, but it will be a loss well gained if you do.
But in practice, if often comes down to not suffering a loss as big as the huge gain you made a while ago.
The minute the money is more, you lose your control, so then there's no point.
For everything you have missed, you have gained something else, and for everything you gain, you lose something else.
I don't gamble, because winning a hundred dollars doesn't give me great pleasure. But losing a hundred dollars pisses me off.
Fortune is like the market, where, many times, if you can stay a little, the price will fall.
Sudden money is going from zero to two hundred dollars a week. The rest doesn't count.
Money? How did I lose it? I never did lose it. I just never knew where it went.
