"Hey, I'm not laughing.  It's important to have a place of your own, things of your own.  That's why I didn't take the money and expensive stuff my father gave me when I left, just stuff I earned.  Everything my father gave me was dirty, it was 'shut up and be good' money and stuff.  I hardly had anything that was really mine.  So it doesn't matter how big or small, something that''s yours is really important."
