If you're working legally and doing the best to do even better, then you're 'winning' to me. The same ones that folks are clowning for making less than 20 could be the ones breaking into your car or robbing you because they feel like they aren't living how they should.

Then they should have made better life choices. I'm not hearing that shyt from folks who bullshyt through most of their life then expect some shyt to be handed to them.

If you work for a company yeah ... possible. I make over $20 at my day job.

My goal is to work for myself (on the side of what I do now) ...and I'd take $5-10 an hour for that. But it would be 24/7 online globalization internet work. Passive Income.

so you invest? do you have a 9 to 5 or u self employed?
9-5 semi-autonomous govt. finance agency, invest and I network no @Desirous

For me, it was the family I was born into, good work ethic in high school and college then essentially getting around the people who can take me where I wanna go..politicking:ehh:

I do like the idea of self employment but I've found my niche and imma ride it out until I'm at that point later in life where I can afford to take the chances associated with that.

Black households average income is 52k

The average black man is making 32k a year

80% of y'all could lose your job today and struggle to find one that pays 15 a hour



This is why I'm sticking to my field now @MoeDollaZ$. I could easily get another job but close to my current salary? Nah. Plus I'm planning on getting into grad school too? :francis:
