[Michelle]

The reason I want money is so I can simply and calmly concentrate on my work - practicing singing, growing personally and professionally and performing - without worry.

This is the tough part of an artistic profession. Financial worries tend to suck energy and disturb concentration which makes working harder.

I also want it so I can live a relatively comfortable life in terms of being able to choose healthful foods, making environmentally conscious purchases and during travel on the audition trail.

Thankfully, even though I have no money - I also have no debt. The Universe has allowed me to keep my head over water through various sponsors always showing up at the right time in my life.
