“From being a kid that never had any money like nothing just having that money was like so insane to me. In the real world’s terms I wasn’t I’ve never been really rich like there’s rich and then there’s like hoodrich but people in skateboarding don’t educate you on money and how it works,” Muska said. As he was homeless, he never had any money then, and the sudden wave of wealth did catch him off guard. Chad never knew how money worked, which made him irresponsible with his finances.
“I was making a lot of money but I was spending it just as fast. You know yeah I wanted to go get a nice car I want I wanted to flaunt these things at that time and it was kind of part of a bit public persona and a bit of my own fulfillment I guess I was chasing that materialism fulfillment at that time and that was just the start of it,” Muska added. He was spending all the money he was earning. He was running after materialistic things, ignoring the fact that they wouldn’t last forever. The ignorance of his finances is the thing he still regrets.
