I've been trying to get into meditating.

I've lost 60lbs doing intermittent fasting and then onto OMAD.

Meditating was a struggle for me initially too. I first started off with guided mediation for 10 min and it made a HUGE difference immediately.

People laugh, but try out headspace, it’s a great start.

I’m in college (1 more year left ) pursuing a finance degree and my commercial real estate certificate. I know there has to be some financial professionals in here. if so, do y’all have any advice to give on the finance field?

Also this may sound crazy, but bytches ain’t flocking to your average IT or engineer nikka cause they make over 100k. We’re “boring” to these bytches. You’d get more easy p*ssy being a broke popular tall nikka with hella tattoos and a strong social media game.

I get more ass off the fact that I’m semi popular in the city due to being in the party business than my career that actually pays the bills.


This is the truth.

Honestly, when I was DJing 4-5 nights a week it was a lot easier for me to get p*ssy than it is now that I'm looking to do more traditional stuff.


I wasn't making a lot of money as a DJ but women thought I was because I had a glamorous profession. The illusion of me having it and just me being being out and about and "popping" got me more women than anything. Women are funny like that. I've also noticed there's women that don't like me since I'm not into DJing and shyt like that anymore.

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.

I gotta admit though.
If it wasn't for me having a wife and son...I woudn't feel good about any of this at all.
Having more money hasn't gotten me any of what my heart truly desires...real friends.
That's what I want the most in my life...and nothing is bringing that back. Between lack of trust, circumstances and just shytty humans in general...nothing I do is ever prolly gonna bring that feeling back again.
All this success and money really just makes me and my family comfortable and not have to struggle.
But if it were just me...I wouldn't be grinding this hard...I know it.
I've been poor before...and content with just enough.
Thankful for what I've been given...but...what I really want, money can't buy.
:mjcry:

Take care of your heart first brehs...all the money in the world can't fix that.

ATL - Cleveland Ave.
Too many folks in here helping their parents. Not knocking it WHATSOEVER. But this is why we can't build wealth. We get a couple cents and already giving it away. My best friend has a successful gym in ATL. Bought his parents two cars and throwing them money for living since his dad had a stroke and his mother hasn't really been able to work.

Making 6 figures isn’t as glamorous as it seems to be. Student loans and other expenses eat up much of my checks. Living in the south does have it’s advantages tho. The key to riches are investments/ multiple sources income.
