A kid like me who grew up on food stamps was like, what is fucking wrong with you people?
Like, you're living the dream.
Maybe you don't have the number one dream, but guess what?
No one's paying attention to you, so you don't get scrutinized.
You can go to a restaurant.
You don't have fucking cameras in your face.
You're actually living a better dream.
My friend Brian said this to me once.
My friend Brian Callen, he said, all you want is to be able to go to a restaurant and order anything you want and not worry about what the bill costs.
Everything after that is bullshit.
I was like, that is like some of the best wisdom ever because...
It doesn't matter how big your house is.
It's just your fucking house, man.
You get used to all that shit.
There's some nice things that come with money.
But freedom is nicer than all those things.
