'I never had any ambitions with money. I had no interest in it, no real respect for it. Money will turn your life in all sorts of twisted directions if you don't get a handle on it.' -Slash
Born in England in 1965 as Saul Hudson, Slash was not even 20 years old when he met Axl Rose and together they formed Guns 'n' Roses. He had dropped out of high school in the 11th grade in order to pursue a career in the music industry, where both his parents had worked: his mother was a clothing designer for musicians including David Bowie, while his father was an art director who did album covers for Neil Young, among others.
