Mmm thought this was a Scrambler topic...

Anyway... McQueen was a Legendary skin flint, I read if he ever handled money in a movie scene he would keep it. But with his upbringing and background thats no suprise. On the other hand when it came to chlldren he was very giving, and gave a lot to charity.
