Quotes to ponder:

"I used to be afraid of money. Not in the sense that I thought it was going to jump out of a dark alley at me, more in the vein of fearing the unknown."

"I’m forced to confess that I was cheap-stupidly cheap and a far cry from strategically frugal."

"Money is only a tool, it will take you wherever you wish, but it won’t replace you as the driver."
