I’d thought that man would be my father. When I was 25, I met that man and he was my brother," she

•“I was worth over $ 1,000,000 when I was 23, and over $ 10,000,000 when I was 24, and over $ 100,000,000 when I was 25, and it wasn’t that important because I never did it for money”.

•“Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life before it’s too late”.
