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.
No. They were lucky. Tons of folks work harder than them and wont see their success.

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.
Okay breh. It's a waste of my time trying to explain my mindset to someone like you with a scarcity mindset. You'll never see it my way. Later you'll understand just like people laughed at :dame:when he was on the Breakfast Club talking that boss shyt but then they came around and said he was right. But we can agree to disagree on this.

I never said hard work equaled success. Working hard in a warehouse won't get you rich. Standing up on a loading dock for 8 hours a day lifting heavy shyt is hard af but that won't get you rich. Working smart and planning is what gets you rich.

fukk your mindset. Bad enough you are weaponizing some black success anomalies to attack the poor.

You know nothing. You have zero experiences in it, and if you did, you likely are the type who forget how fortunate and lucky he is to be in the position he is. Im thankful everyday for winning the genetic lottery that got me to play where I did and receive my education. Im thankful for Ms. Humphrey walking my mom and I into the principals office to get me into my HS my senior year which changed the entire trajectory of the life I currently live.

You dont know shyt.

Right, the 2% of the 2%, and if you look at their stories, even they have privileges. Karl Kani learned the business through his father. That's a privilege a lot of folks don't get.

Yet I'm happy and you're the angry one. Enjoy your day, if you ever want to be your own boss and start a business holla at me and I'll sweep this shyt under the rug. I know you're only lashing out because the truth hurts and fear of freedom is a real thing. Until then stay under the man where you're comfortable.

Malcolm X and Louis Farrakhan both preached the same thing I'm talking about in regards to ownership yet I'm the crazy one right? Okay.

Im not happy? Have you seen my home? And being your own boss is not the only key to success mr. Pivot. :heh: so tired of this idea that entrepreneurship is the sole means to succeed. Furthermore, that has ZERO to do with our discussion about the poor.

How would kd achilles go if he didnt play doe? He would of had 3 months to heel his calf i think this is just another excuse for the warriors they never gave a shyt about him.
Somebody on here said they interviewed Isiah Thomas about it (Pistons) and he said once it’s about to go there is nothing you can do to stop it. It’s iust a ticking time bomb.
