Save money; never rely on other people to lend you money. We call it having 'walking the streets' money - money in your back pocket or bank account that belongs to you.

Theo Paphitis

If you play cricket for India, money is bound to come, and with IPL in and match money of the Ranjhi trophy, I think money is there. There's no good reason why you should not work hard, because at the end of the day, you want to play for your country.

MS Dhoni

You have phantom income each year. No money is being put in your pocket, but you have to take some money out of your pocket to pay Uncle Sam because the tax is paid based on accretion.

Scott Walker

Assets put money in your pocket, whether you work or not, and liabilities take money from your pocket.

Robert Kiyosaki

Take the money in your wallet and invest it in your mind. And in return, your mind will fill up your wallet!

Benjamin Franklin

You create your own luck by the way you play. There is no such luck as bad luck. Fate has nothing to do with success or failure, because that is a negative philosophy that indicts one's confidence, and I'll have no part of it.

Greg Norman

No matter how much money you have, it's just smart to use coupons. It's like free money in your pocket.

Kate Gosselin

I like money. You like money. We need the money. But, money is not going to bring humanity and spiritualism into your life.

Bikram Choudhury

For me, money is to use - it's only to use. So I never have money because I always spend. That's why in a way I protect myself in having houses. But if I had just cash or kept it in the bank, I'd spend it immediately. But not for stupid things. So I don't like to have money. I never have money in my pocket.

Franca Sozzani

I learned to play piano on my own and my parents thought "Oh it would be a good thing for you take piano lessons. That's the way you really need to learn to play the piano."

Colin Munroe

You entrust your money to banks, God entrusts His money to you. How would you feel if the bank took your money and used it to play the lottery or gamble with it? So, how does God feel?

Tony Evans

Another is, if you take money out of your left pocket and put it in your right pocket, you're no richer.

Merton Miller

Doing good with other people's money has two basic flaws. In the first place, you never spend anybody else's money as carefully as you spend your own. So a large fraction of that money is inevitably wasted. In the second place, and equally important, you cannot do good with other people's money unless you first get the money away from them. So that force - sending a policeman to take the money from somebody's pocket - is fundamentally at the basis of the philosophy of the welfare state.

Milton Friedman

I don't play for money. I'm not sure I even can play just for money. Money is great; I can't lie about that.

Andrew Flintoff

The most obvious difference between a cash game and a tournament is that in tournament play, once your chips are gone, so are you. In a cash game, you can always dig into your pocket for more money.
