Achievement Quote by Jim Jefferies

“Because of the way I've made my money or the way I've conducted myself in public to get success, it doesn't make me any better a person. So I always thought money and achievement would make me a more legitimate person, where my family seems to think it's all about actions.” quote by Jim Jefferies
