Quotes to ponder:
"I realized I never knew the value of money. I had never even been aware of money before."
"Money is a great thing but money finds a home only in places where it’s appreciated. I didn’t appreciate the money. So it left me."
"Feeling rich or abundant is a state of mind. It’s cultivated by how much fulfillment you get out of the way you spend your time, how much gratitude you express, the influence of the people you surround yourself with, and where you focus your attention."
