Andre Igoudala Dropping Bombs On The Breakfast Club This Morning

[philmonroe]

right you said before being poor was a choice because people like to buy $10 cigarettes and now above you say that being poor isnt a choice, and fukk you business professor.

you went off the rails.

Being poor for most in America regardless of race is a choice. I’m speaking on adults not kids with my previous sentence. Once you’re able to make your own choices that’s on you for the most part. Anybody that thinks otherwise is fooling themselves and or hanging around coddlers.

I also think we need to have a clear definition of what “poor” means to everybody. Most people ime are just doing ok in life not super poor. They have a spot to live at, car, some disposable income but not balling where they can do all the things they want. That’s most people at least ime and for those people yes they have a choice to do more but don’t for whatever reason.

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

Your point was stupid bro. And you’re super arrogant and unlikeable to top it all off.

Me saying if you broke but can find money to get loaded yet can't find money to invest in yourself is arrogant? I don't give a damn if you like the truth or not. You don't have the mentality of a boss that's why you don't like guys like me and you might as well call the man your daddy.

 

[THEREALBRAND]

Pure detached Bay Area Asian shyt. Dude has never spent any time around the working poor. Its obvious.

Fixed

G.O.O.K Squad Spokesman can maintain his “black identity” when the topic is just sports, but his true colors always come out when social issues are being discussed.

 

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

You dont have to say it “verbatim”

Who the fukk are you fooling? You saying the poor arent taking the necessary steps is saying its a choice.

If you never make moves to change your condition it absolutely is a choice. If you choose to work in a warehouse all your life for $300 a week that's a choice if you never take a risk to change it.

If me saying that angers you then deal with it. I worked in a warehouse for like 2 weeks and that shyt changed my life and made me go to college because I refused to live like that for the rest of my life.

I could've easily stayed in that warehouse and got mad at anybody that told me I could do more with myself but I made the choice not to.

He not coming back

Fukk no

Give it up OP. Your team got washed and they ain't bout to be shyt this year. Come back in 2 years.

It's easier for some than others I'll agree. But let's look at minorities from the hood that made it in business. One of my muses is Daymond John, dudes mom bet her house on him making FUBU work. Dude worked at Red Lobster and invested damn near his entire paycheck into buying raw goods to make FUBU pop. He rode around in a bucket instead of a nice car and was a livery driver just to have money to eat because the Red Lobster money went into his business.

Dude basically stalked LL Cool J to get him to take a picture in FUBU.

He went to various video shoots out his own pocket begging rappers to wear his shirt in their videos. Most people aren't willing to do things like that in their spare time for free. That's what I mean when I say bet on yourself.

Daymond's a rarity, though. It's only 2% of the 2% that hustle like Daymond did.

If you never make moves to change your condition it absolutely is a choice

The point with being poor is that it's often a choice of taking care of your immediate needs to keep a roof over your head than it is the "choices" which include time, money, and other things, that you take for granted that folks have.

I work for a company where we worked with working poor women, only to discover that those who wanted to leave a shelter when looking for a job couldn't because they didn't have a phone to contact them (which they couldn't afford) and the shelter had only one land line.

You REALLY have no idea what's going on in real life, seeing how your points have ZERO real life scenarios tied to it, other than pushing right wing bumper sticker talk.

Um...I’m a corporate lawyer. I just think you’re a dikk . That example was just stupid. There is a difference between personal responsibility and public policy. That sort of hustle is rare, what should the cost be of not having it? I don’t think a shytty life is the answer and neither do you or we would go back to the era of no minimum wage and child workers.

3,600 × 18= 64,800

That's one and a half years of college. Mind you the average salary coming out with an undergraduate degree is $50K/year

That's not to mention the extra money you can add to it by putting it in a CD or putting all of your tax refund into the college fund. I know broke folk that find the money to buy 2 packs of cigarettes a day and still buy weed and alcohol. That money could go towards investing in something but that's just my opinion.

Your anecdotal experience is irrelevant to the wealth of data and research on this topic. Stop while you're behind and read a book or two.

I worked for a non-profit that re-homed homeless individuals and families years back now, and this is absolutely true. If you don't have an address or phone number, you can't even get a sniff at a damn McDonald's.

People like @G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman always take the very rare cases where someone eats beans and rice once a day for three years to become successful in business as the norm instead of what it is, as a vast rarity because even having a phone number is a privilege. Your everyday shyt you take as normal are definitely privileges.

Even talking about Daymond, dude notes that he had a mom with a house to help back him, like having parents with property to even use on you financially is the norm for most people. It isn't.

Karl Kani has a similar story, Same with Barry Gordy. Think about it this way, what's the difference between Tony Yayo and 50 cent? One has a boss mentality and the other is content being under the boss.

Youre talking to a guy that ZERO real world experience working with poor people. It is obvious.
