On the other hand copper said, "Who has inherited a lot of money that has gone on to do things in their own life? From the time I was growing up, if I felt that there was some pot of gold waiting for me, I don't know that I would've been so motivated."

He also said, "I'm doing fine on my own, I don't need any [money],"
"My dad grew up really poor in Mississippi… I paid attention to that because I thought that's a healthier thing to pay attention to than like some statue of a great-great-great-grandfather who has no connection to my life." He said while expressing his family background.
