War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.

Trust me I'm going to find out where the money has gone and how it has been spent and see if we can't get it down there quicker to let that rebuilding start.

I've never made choices based on money - I always trust my gut.

Millions have been taken from me. If you are not on top of it and you make a lot of money and you trust business managers then yes money will be taken from you.

The Macau casinos have a wonderful business it's taking in money from Chinese businessmen elsewhere who send it through junky companies to casinos to gamble. The growth continues and they have basically western managers and western accounting so we trust the numbers a little bit more.

The way I look at it everything is a trade. You acquire some money so then you've got no financial burdens but everyone wants your money and so who can you trust? Or you've got no money and you can trust anyone but then you've got the worry to pay bills. Which is worse?

I learned something from that. If someone asks me something that I really don't want to do I say no. I have to trust that. And I'm not afraid to talk money.

And basically the sense of the 'Pledge to America' is this: Republicans understand when we were in charge we got fired in '06. We spent too much money. We defied the trust that the people had put in us. And we know that there is a better way.

Not one Republican president has balanced the budget in 34 years. You can not trust Republicans with your money.

We've not had one Republican president in 34 years balance the budget. You can't trust right-wing Republicans with your money. You ought to hire somebody who has balanced a budget. I'm much more conservative with money than George Bush is.

Sometimes a psychic tells you something and it feels wrong and others may be right on the money. It's your choice about whom to trust and giving that trust is something we do ourselves.

I grew up skateboarding it was fun. I didn't think about money I didn't know how much professional skateboarders made. I just knew that if I became a professional skateboarder I would achieve a lot and get to travel and do these great things.

Some guys travel with expensive Louis Vuitton luggage but it gets all scratched up under the plane. I'd rather not spend too much money on something that's just going to get messed up.

My goal when I started out was to get to the point where I could tour a lot and make a living which means getting paid enough to hire my own band travel and end up with a bit of money but I'm still nowhere near that point. Because I didn't have a band and fan base when I started I did everything backward.

But I want people to understand that poker's not all glamorous it's not all being on TV and making tons of money. It's a hard life. It's a lot of travel. It's a lot of weird hours.

Right now I'm so old that if I had a big gush of money I don't know what I'd do with it. I don't travel anymore. I don't need anything don't want anything. I'd give it to my son I guess and let him enjoy it.

I hope that I'll be hot for a long time so I can make a lot of money I can retire early and just travel. Hopefully that will happen.
