I drive a luxury vehicle (no note)

I own my home (great rate)

I'm not a fashionista, so I don't buy crazy amounts of designer clothes

I'm not into jewellery, so I rock none

I don't worry about money at all. I'm not loaded by any stretch of the imagination, but money is rarely the limiting factor on why I choose not to do something. I can pretty much travel wherever I wanna go, eat where I wanna eat, do what I wanna do, etc.



But I still gotta get up and go to work everyday:francis:

:ohhh:

Also, to offset some of the doom and gloom in this thread lol, making good money as a black man is raw. I already make more than my father ever made, and he's great man and dad. I feel proud, and I'm still hungry. making 7-10gs a month is very doable, and when you get to around those numbers you do feel better about yourself.
Truth. Low 6 figures just allows to you to pay your bills, pay off debts, and "do some nice things." If you're a responsible adult, you'll save 1-3gs a month, and continue to live normally.

I have 3 kids....two about to start college. I am about to start a few businesses. doesnt matter how much you make, but how much freedom you have or if you work for someone else all your life. also its not about how much you make but what you need to support the lifestyle you live. I got folk that make 200k and in debt and making bad decisions everyday. build a solid credit profile and dont take on debt unless its to make money. all that flossy shyt is for the birds.

I would be sick. Much respect for taking it on the chin like that .:dame:


I almost had to see a shrink and go on anti depressants but honestly sometimes you just gotta let shyt go lol. The hardest part of everything is admitting you failed at something and keeping it moving. Most people will spend years in denial and let it destroy them.
