So the money started coming, but Pratt wasn’t sure how handle it.
“Because also, we never had any money growing up,” he said.
“No one ever taught me financial literacy.
I didn’t know what to do with money.
It was like, it would come in, I would spend it, you know what I mean?
I have to think about, what am I gonna do?
“That’s when I felt like I made it.”
