It’s not even about me.
I sacrifice all the stuff so my family doesn’t have to complain about not having resources because the poverty
Be the man that doesn’t fail his family
The best customers are repeat customers
I just want my actions to prove that I am enough
I’m out here putting money into my followers pockets. Getting DMs back like “what was this for”
Sometimes frugality hurts
I too want to be selectively extravagant.
If you aren’t financially free every dollar should be committed toward becoming financially free.
It’s funny what you pay attention to when you understand the game..
If I could get people to stop focusing on social justice issues we would be alright
Having money and not spending it feels a lot better than spending everything that you get
Aretha Franklin's lack of a will could make things rocky for her heirs http://blbrd.cm/6NoMr8
The code is the code is the code
If she had a will that might have actually been worse because then people contest the will.
What if?
A lot of people are living above their means and they don’t even know it
You are jealous of someone who is over extending themselves financially and you don’t even know it
Checking my bank account periodically and seeing it’s still all there>>>
Using that money to invest in myself>>>
“Whatever your income, always live below your means.”
even when I have it I don't have it
Many people who live in expensive homes and drive luxury cars do not actually have much wealth
Many people who have a great deal of wealth do not even live in upscale neighborhoods
“One of the reasons that millionaires are economically successful is that they think differently.”
“If your goal is to become financially secure, you’ll likely attain it…. But if your motive is to make money to spend money on the good life,… you’re never gonna make it.”
“Multiply your age times your realized pretax annual household income from all sources except inheritances. Divide by ten. This, less any inherited wealth, is what your net worth should be.”

And this is interesting
But the next gen tesla roadster is sexy af.
I am looking at it though and if you recall, the first gen roadster was weak af
not only that, the first gen roadster was just a lotus with a battery
im reminded of the slander big baller brand gets for repurposing brand black shoes
when you are just starting out your company you have to go lean..
you take what you have and buid,
then you reinvest those profits and boom,
you get the model s, the model x the model 3
and then the new roadster
I know that tesla got slander. I know that they got jokes and all that.
the thing is that the infighting and the crab stuff isn't exclusive to black culture.
its indicative of a competitive economy that IS world super power.
some will get it and some wont,
don't let those that don't get it keep you from getting it
all the GREAT companies that people like young blue chip tout as the shit were doubted the entire time up.
netflix, amazon, google, apple..
nobody tapped them at the onset..
they were caught and couldn't believe people would buy things online or use an all glass phone
when the idea of an all glass phone came up smart people had all these valid arguments
"it will break easy" "I like buttons"..
look up now and folks laugh at phones with buttons.
choose yourself and trust your gut
these people don't know what they like
these days folks disagree w me in my mentions and I just keep moving toward the goal.
I can't argue with youuuuuuu
This Kaep Nike thing feels real Black Panther to me. Folks are going to flock to the stores to buy their stuff and end up enriching Nike while depleating their communities reserves
Hence why I refused to support Black Panther. The white owners at Marvel and Walt Disney are culture vultures just like Nike. Get up good though. Only a matter of time.

Africa is not Africa because of the free things we provide for our citizens. Every country has programs for the poor.
Africa isn’t great because you can protest and complain, there are other countries that allow you the right to protest and complain.
Africa is great because no matter what you are born into you can rise to the top. Its possible but its not easy. Too many times we assume that possible means “easy”.
a lot of people don't like inheriting tenants but these people are alright with me
The interesting thing about the networth thing is that income and savings is a very slow way to do it.
If you needed a bump in networth all you need is a few properties below market value and boom.

You wanna know what’s more important than throwin’ away money at a strip club? ASSETS.
Its not enough to get to assets if your poor habits are going to cause you to lose them.
Too many of us think that credit is free money.
Assets require you to be wealth conscious, credit requires you to be consumer conscious
Getting good credit requires that you get really good at paying OTHER people
Getting good credit requires that you get really good at paying OTHER people.
Getting your assets up requires that you get really good at having others pay you.
assets can be passed down to make the lives of your heirs a lot better. But your credit can’t.
Credit scores are overrated, financial statements are underrated

once you give money to a start up its gone forever, mourn forever
If your "assets" dont make you money, they're a liability
Wrapping structure around the Universal Hustlel org after we built up the Universal Hustle org. Very important

GC doesn't split the profits with his partners, he gives them a flat ROI and he takes the rest.
no other community is interested in solving black problems so if we don't solve black problems they just wont get solved. - boyce watkins
THIS is a very important concept in the black community. A lot of folks in the hood think they are too good to work certain jobs so they do nothing or worse, break the law: "Every job is worthwhile." Former 'Cosby Show' actor Geoffrey Owens speaks out over job-shaming incident https://ti.me/2LWIfOc
boyce is spitting fire
symbolism and moral victories are just an emotional high. people like to get high off symbolism (see Nike) because it allows you to feel good and act like your problems don't exist - Boyce
if you add up the number of people killed by black people THIS YEAR that is more than all the black people killed by the Klan and police officers the last 100 years - Boyce
