Throughout his childhood John developed a very close relationship with his mother and would be the perfect definition of a "momma's boy." She was always at home with him because his father was to busy with his oil business. John never did anything that pleased his father, at least he never heard his father say he was pleased.

John's interest was in music and poetry, which his dad replied, was a "lack of any concept of what it took to get ahead in the real world." John had two goals in life: 1) Become rich, like his father. 2) Become famous, unlike his father. John left to attend college at Texas Tech after many arguments with his father who was upset that he was still living at home. John didn't last long because he was homesick. .
For the next seven years he was constantly on the roam, but never spent more than a couple of months anywhere away from home. During these years his parents were living in a small suburb of Denver, Colorado and he frequently wrote and called his mother when he was away. He was a master at conning his wealthy parents out of money. His parents desperately wanted him to get a job and meet a woman.
