"Because of my struggles in my youth and the fact that I wanted to please my father, all of my successes were measured by nothing other than how much money I made. I became obsessed with that and with what that money could acquire. I had everything in life that money could give me, and I wanted more. There wasn't a reason why I wanted more–other than to prove my father wrong about my ability to be successful. I had to cut that cord somewhere, somehow."
