I grew up in a very large, poor family.

I had a really hard time growing up; we were a large family, and we didn't have much money at home.

I was a lower middle-class kid. My family had no money. There was no room in our small house where there were already four kids, including myself, living.

I grew up poor. I never had any money. I was a hobo, you know, ride the freights.

I grew up on a sugar plantation in Trinidad, on an expat estate, and that meant I had no idea about money until a lot later than most children.

I'm from a big family; I have four younger siblings. My parents are still happily married together. I grew up moving around a lot, and my family was certainly not affluent.

I was born and raised in the ghetto, on welfare, two minutes from homeless.

I grew up in South Florida, and my family was pretty poor. We weren't your upper-class whites by any means.

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.
