My own wife was like, you always buy stuff for us and whatever. What about... I'm wearing fucking Old Navy Gap jeans to go do... So she's like, why don't you just buy it? And so I spoke to my accountant. I was like, what's good? He's like, honestly, a watch would be nice. And why I want you to buy a watch is because it appreciates in value. You're not buying a depreciating asset.

I started listening to like every single one of my peers on podcasts or the radio. I noticed there was a common theme for people that went really far who were older. There was like, oh, you know, I would hear guys that done crazy shit in this business. Always somewhere, shape or form in some interview, they'd say, but man, I'd give half of it back.
