Electrician breh shows paycheck. Says 9 to 5 aint as bad as rappers make it to be

[Stir Fry]

Is it too late to get a trade? I’m 31 I see this is targeting young brehs

Never too late to get into the trades, breh. Go for it. As long as you got some hustle and a little muscle someone will give you a chance. I'm at six figures now and could lean more into the management side if I wanted to, but I love working with my hands too much.

Shout out to to him and Deante Kyle

Just need nikkas in more actual business coops with the money they get from these trades and go worldwide as a unit

Deante Kyle exposed himself as a goofy

 

[O.Red]

I been posting about this in all the THEY ONLY WANT STREET NIKKAS WITH BODIES" threads for years my brother drives a garbage truck, but you'd think he got bricks if you didn't know any better

The nightlife is held up by men in blue collar trades. That's who's buying all them dumb ass sections in the club

WE need to start living in reality, and stop letting rappers impact real life

Rappers been around for 50 years, it's THOTS driving these bullshyt narratives

 

[Mac Ten]

It's sad that having a regular 9-5 job has somehow become something to be ashamed of in our community. That you're some kind of lame or sucker if you work a job that offers benefits and a retirement plan.

I’d rather have a 9-5 job than to be a in prison right now making enough for some Mike and Ikes

A lot of rappers have a short window of time tbh…3-4 years

I’d learn a trade and still rap on the side.


That’s why I respect Sadat X and how he’s not too prideful to get a job after the Brand Nubian checks stopped coming in.


Dude works in the health field

It’s not hard to get an apprenticeship either. You put your name on a list and wait for a call. It may take a year, but they will call.

[Gloxina]

So you're saying I should've stayed in Job Corp?
Instead of becoming an outlaw?
And caring a four four?

BFB Da Packman was a mail carrier while he was doing shows, I think he left now but he spoke about rappers not having a pension, health insurance, and how he had 401k contributions, it was like a double hustle, using the day job money to make more money while you go on tour.

Somebody screenshot what's in the OP I can't see it

 

[Rell84shots]

There's a reason elders always told us to learn a trade when we were young.

 

[DaddyFresh]

Even better if you work in IT
Work from home maybe 3 hours a day

on god. if you get on a cool IT team the work/life balance is AMAZING. I probably average 5-10 actual work hours a week 90% of the time

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

This is one of the reasons they are shutting down Job Corps. Don’t EVER get it twisted

Getting into trades take a lil self investment and some motivation. There is still plenty of need and it's easy for young men to apprentice. Most won't make the effort. I'm just gonna be honest.
These ain't jobs for people who need to be told what to do. If you are like that you will still end up getting the low end wages and miserable hours. To be independent demands a lot of self investment but the payoff is godly. When you do good work, work comes to you in that environment. I work with mechanics and electricians.
