I'm extremely proud of what I have achieved. I've travelled around the world twice, went from rolling quarters for cigarettes, balling my eyes out, wondering what I was going to do after losing three million dollars, to being very financially comfortable, to buying a Mercedes G Wagon to being able to get whatever I want and living in a beautiful apartment in West Hollywood, furnished exactly how I want it. Life is incredible.
I don't want the United States to be in a global economy where our economic future is bound to that of Zimbabwe. We can't necessarily trust the decisions that are being made financially in other countries.
You cannot be spiritually free and financially bound.
Businesses can lead with their values and make money, too. You don't have to simply be purely profit-driven. You can integrate social and environmental concerns into a business, be a caring business, be a generous business and still do very well financially.
What is good for you creatively is usually bad commercially. You thrive financially by sticking to a series and not fiddling about too much. You do yourself harm by moving away from the series and the genre. By trying things not based in that particular mode of writing, you will just lose readers.
God wants us to prosper financially, to have plenty of money, to fulfill the destiny He has laid out for us.
I don't think I have any regrets, but I can tell you what I learned from mistakes or failures. I've had plenty of those. I just don't believe in regret, and my economic world is not what I would ever have imagined; I'm financially free.
For women especially, its important to be financially independent.
You want the film to be critically successful - you certainly want the film to be financially successful so that you can. . . well, because that's how movies like this are made, you know, they need to make money. But as a director, you can only make the movie that you want to make.
I don't need anyone to look after me financially and, while it's hard to trust that a man loves you for the right reasons, you have to take a leap of faith.
You can't forget about luck. There is nothing in life that says if you're great and unique that you're going to have success financially.
When there's more lows than highs and I'm not just talking financially, it may be time to see what else is out there for you. Even at this point, I am open to the possibility that there may be another chapter on the horizon and I trust that I'll know in my heart when it's time to close the chapter on this one. I am much more than just an actor. It is what I do now and I try not to get boxed in by the belief that that is all I have to offer the world as my work.
Be BLESSED-spirit, soul, body and financially.
I have more money than I am ever going to need. Financially, I'm fine for the next couple of hundred years.
You become financially free when your passive income exceeds your expenses.
. . . black women. . . are trained from childhood to become workers, and expect to be financially self-supporting for most of their lives.

America, ladies and gentlemen, has done more for me financially than Britain ever has, or ever could have done.
I don't think the Palestinian people or Afghan children or some other things I'm concerned about are at the top of other people's agendas - not right now, when America is going through such a recession and people are suffering across the board financially. But I think all that will change.
Financially, I do not need to work unless I want to, and whatever film I accept has to be right for me in the sense that it should justify the time I spend away from my husband and kids.
The payroll tax increase was destructive financially, it took what was a close call and made it a bad call.
