What's the best advice you can give an 18 year old black male right now?

[BodeineBrazy]

I need some insight brehs. I'm not in a fukked up position but I'm about to be in the position where I'm launching myself into the real world. I graduated High School last year but decided to take a year long break. I'll be starting school soon and applying for more jobs. Other than that, I just want some tips ya feel me.

Don't listen to none of these nikkas man, ima tell u the real.

You arent about to go into the "real world" there is no such thing. Everything is a cycle. Work = High School. The same skills you used to navigate for those four years are basically all you need.

1. Don't get caught up with your age. Age is used to depress people. You not a young nikka, cause there is a 12 year old looking at you like a old nikka right now. It's all on perspective. Live your life RIGHT NOW, how you feel it should be, dont worry about fitting anyone's opinion of whats right or wrong, not your friends, not your parents, not anyone. Don't please people, please YOU. THIS IS THE KEY.

2. Never fukking tell a lie. Never ever ever ever ever lie. Practice that from early on, don't spare people's feelings and never hide your true self unless there is a reward for it in the long run, that allows you to be you even more. Women can handle A TON of honesty by the way. Honesty will get you the most bytches.

3. fukk as many bytches as possible and don't be scared to approach any hoe. There are good women out there, leave them to the good nikkas who won't cheat and wife them. Have your fun, dont even THINK about kids till 32-33. That shill will only slow you up, eat your bread and kill your aspirations.

4. Maintain your credit. ALSO KEY.

5. Learn to keep secrets, and be comfortable being your own best friend. Your circle of "friends" will shed itself. By 30 you'll have maybe 3 friends.

6. Always trust your instincts, and don't take advice. Not even mine, if it doesnt make sense to you. Don't move with it. Thats secretly the key to success.

I would tell the young brother first and foremost; understand the law when it come answering questions, illegal searches, possess of a firearm (ccw) and any state or local laws white people will use against yo.

Also open up a savings account at a credit union and save all the change you make because it's the little things that add up.

Open up a Roth Ira at a try to contribute 20 dollars a month; when you become 25 and you will have a serious job or business and start making better money. You will be a head of the game for retirement.

Learn about stock and bons, mutual funds, certificate of deposits and other investment products.
Always have a suit for interviews or any kind of professional attire.

Learn how to properly write a resume

Take a career assessment test to see what type of field you should be in.

Understand everybody does not have the best interest in you; family, friends and etc. Even your own people.

Understand youself and who you are. Love yourself first before you love somebody else.

As far as women; they will always be there.

Take care of your body. Workout. Get all your vitamins and shyt. watch what you eat. You get outta puberty your metabolism slows down and your body can't digest that processed food so easily.

Take care of your teeth. Brush after every meal. Toothaches hurt and dental is expensive as fukk. Just dropped 2k on a root canal.

Find a bad female now and wife her up. 18 is perfect age to find a virgin. You wait like the rest of these nikkas you gon be stuck with a girl whose been ran through.

Focus on school, work, and saving your cash for 3 years. Don't spend cash willy nilly, don't make any huge life decisions. Cuz i promise you your mindset at 21 is gonna be totally different than your mindset now.

Is getting a tattoo a huge life decision

One more... a very big one...

MAKE ALLOWANCE FOR YOUR MISTAKES.

THEY WILL HAPPEN, BUT DONT LET THEM DETER YOU INTO A "PLAN B", "PLAN B" IS FOR THOTS AND BROKE nikkaS.

WHEN U SEE SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE LIKE A JAY Z OR OBAMA IT SEEMS LIKE THEY NEVER FAILED, NAH THEY DIDM THEY JUST KEPT GOING IN SPITE OF. THATS ONE OF THE ILLEST THINGS I CAN TYPE TO A YOUNG BROTHER.

KNOW YOU WILL FAIL... BUT KNOW YOU MUST RISE AGAIN.

The girls are manageable, but unfortunately they're the least of the problems you'll face eventually..

Get seriously book smart..

Pick your friends well. At this point your'e going to college so your'e starting afresh. Running with the smart and dull kids will get you farther in life then the cool kids. trust me.
