Those of us who are 29+ let's give advice to new graduates and those 17-24

[MegaTronBomb!]

Any suggestions on trades/certifications?

If you're looking for a trade, pick something that'll give you work even when you don't have/can't find a job.

laying tile,mechanic,carpentry,landscaping, plumbing,electrical...... cause if worst comes to worst, you can still make a living doing day labor/side jobs.

I don't get it.... how do people do Howard Homecoming,CIAA,A3C in Atlanta, Spring Break in Myrtle Beach, MDW in Miami EVERY year?

why not sit them out, and go somewhere you've never been. Some people really spend all of their 20's in the same time zone

Most young people never grow out of a comfort zone.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Don't waste your money going to Atlanta/Miami/Vegas for getaways/vacations....especially if you've been there multiple times.

it's gonna be the same shyt everytime... might be a new club, or some new bytches... but still the same shyt.

it's not that expensive to fly to another country...or a different city that you've never been to before.

shyt I would expand this to life in general. Try new things.

Also do charity work. It's a good thing to do and an easy way to meet quality people (women)

Yea but it catches up to you,

1) It's ok to be a "lame". Being a thug only has hood benefits (more hood bytches, more notoriety). Work on yourself first

Miami and Vegas should be baseline trips but every 3 years at most cause yeah its essentially the same


I just got back from Vegas for the first time in 4 years and yeah rehab was the same...tao was the same...drais was the same..etc

Fun but every year would be OD

 

[Rocket Scientist]

booked mark for gems, I'm an ex con just tryna make my way in the world. 26 about to graduate from university

You may have been incarcerated but that didn't stop Malcolm X who also went to prison. You still have a bright future.Make the most of your 2nd chance in society

Explain

it cannot not pay off
being disciplined will enable you to maximise your potential and great benefits will come from it as time passes by
a lot of people will talents never achieve much with it because they lacked discpline

 

[sang_bleu]

I do not care about your education but as long as you have an income, just remember that is important to save for a rainy day.
Always note down an idea and put whatever energy you can into making whatever extra income.
Traditional pathways are not always the way in making money, as I am glad that I had been rejected from doing retail jobs.
Work ethic and saving money

a considerable amount of my friends make the Atl, CIAA, Howard, Miami, Mrytle Beach trips like clockwork..and they aren't even selling p*ssy,dope or jack boys.

Vegas on big weekends is just WOAT..... i've never seen so many people at pool parties, with empty ass pools in my life.
