There comes a point when a man must refuse to answer to his leader if he is also to answer to his own conscience. ↗

I refuse to feel guilty. I feel guilty about too much in my life but not about money. I went through periods when I had nothing, so somebody in my family has to get stinkin' wealthy. ↗
