How I did it: I was an only child and I could have anything I wanted. I never really had serious money issues. My father used to give me money to buy things I wanted so things were just fine. Until he passed away and some of the things I never had worried about before, had to be taken away from me. But this things were nothing compared to the pain of his absence. And then I realised what's really important.

Lessons & tips: People usually think they don't have anything good. But only the fact that you have family and friends, a house to live in, air to breathe and faith in your heart... it's amazing, these are the really important things and they're precious. You know, some people can't walk, can't see, can't hear. I can. And that's already a gift.
