Instead of looking at the past, I put myself ahead twenty years and try to look at what I need to do now in order to get there then.

I was looking at making a shift in my career. I've been so blessed I'd like to be able to give that back. If I could find young artists, young performers I can nurture to have a career I would really like that.

I just appreciate still having the longevity that I've had in my career.

My children come first and the career comes in around that.

I am proud of Edinburgh's status as a financial centre, but where is it on the index of global financial centres? Sixty-fourth. Below Hamilton, Casablanca and Mauritius. London, by contrast, is second only to New York. That's a link worth keeping.

I think there's something about having a purpose in life and a sense of belonging that is more important than money for any human being.

I joined a band because I didn't like school, and there's nothing else I'd rather have done. If I really wanted to make money, I'd be in real estate. But I'm rich enough. I have a son and daughter, a lovely home, and if I see something I like, I can buy it. That's rich enough.

We measured our success not just by how much money we made, but by how much we contributed to the community. It was a two-part bottom line.
