"I wanted to really spread the message that you can afford to do anything! You can't afford everything, but you can afford anything! And so when I started traveling, I quit my 9 to 5 job in 2008, and at the time I had enough money to live on for three years. "
"I saw really money as this tool to get what I wanted, to become more of an adult, to be able to exercise my freedom and I still see it as being that way...I don't ever wanna be dependent on someone for money, that would be one of the scariest things, I think, to experience."
"The most common characteristic between all of my subjects was a determination and a resilience... They all have been knocked down multiple times in their life, like everybody does...But then they just got back up and they tried again or tried something different, and I think that is the secret."
"I was thinking, 'Oh my gosh, think about how much money that is just sitting in my closet right now that I could be spending on new stuff?'"
"I would look around at what people were doing to try to see how they were living these lives...People's cars, like they look neater, they look polished; and I began to learn at a really young age that they were either experts at something...or professionals – and they were usually experts."
"My job doesn't offer a 401k. Please help me! Should I move the little money I have elsewhere? What percentage of my pay should go towards retirement and vacation savings?"
"What do you think the best retirement investment strategy is for me, considering the short span of time until I retire at 65?"
"Money does not have to be this thing that nobody talks about. We can talk about it like car-talk. We can have a good time, we can talk about a lot of different topics, we don't have to worry about learning anything, just creating surround-sound. That's where the fun is."
"The work I do everyday, it's what I want to do, it's what I've dreamt of doing for a while and even if I won the lottery, like you asked before, I'd still be doing this tomorrow. I love it."
