“never see me out cuz i live in my workplace” drizzy drake
Money is everything is right………. Well no not if you can’t sleep right at night…..
If you do something that doesn’t feel right deep down inside, and you know its wrong, after a while it will catch up with you. You will either keep turning a blind eye and moving forward or take a stand for what you believe in even though it may be the unpopular decision.
The more you do it the worse you feel “unless your heartless”, and when you go bed at night its not easy resting and you ponder what else can I do. You say to yourself If money flow stops then I will be a asshole with no money. I have seen this in so many places from fortune 500 companies ceo’s, to the employees, to the people in home based businesses. People might not even be directly involved, but they know what is going on or directly involved.
They continue to stay within the corrupt organization to collect a paycheck, and I am not saying be a snitch and tell all the bad that goes on because if they are powerful company they would make your life hell. All I am saying is distance yourself before you get in to deep.
The last thing on a major scale was subprime mess, they were selling people the american dream, but the chances of survival in it were very slim and they knew it. It was good for ceo’s and everyone involved making money, BUT when you start getting stories, the letters and emails, about grown men crying because they can’t provide for their family, and single mothers putting their life saving on the line that extra trip rome doesn’t feel to good. They were making so much money it didn’t start to sink in until BLOODSHED and after of effects the personal stories hit home and by then they were in TOO DEEP.
You could name ANY tobacco company and say the same thing, THERE IS NO GOOD in those companies I mean come on 99% of people that work in the companies don’t use the product “COME the #### on” that should say enough right there. Its this type of thing where they could sell it to stranger because they have no emotional attachment to the person, but if was their mother or close friend they would say “hey don’t buy or do that, this is just how I make my money” . Treat people the way you would like to be treated.
That right there is like mr jim rohn says “what tastes good in the mouth can be very bitter in the belly”. So what I am basically saying is when you start to see something that is wrong, and you know it don’t turn a blind eye. Most people go in too deep before they can turn back. They develop the high morgage and all the other toys and all people counting on them and they can’t turn back because they in too deep now. Moral of the story if you can’t sell it your mother, and look her in eye don’t do it. Don’t ever sell your soul for the love of the $. There are way too many people who have made it the top without selling their souls for the $.
LETS GO PEOPLE.

When it comes to the car custom game there are two companies that run it. One is on the west coast “west coast Customs” and One is on the East Coast ” Unique Auto Sports” Its like Biggie and Pac. There is nothing Will and his crew can’t do with a car if your imagination can dream it well Will and crew can do it. Will wasn’t always mentioned in the same breath as Sean P Diddy Combs , 50 Cent Lebron James, Yao Ming, Busta. It was a constant climb over his 20 year plus career to get to the top. You could basically call him the Lebron James of the custom car game. I had the honor of doing a interview with Will and he shared what it took him to get to the top. I would like thank Will for taking the time to come out share nuggets with the people. Also shoutout to whole staff at unique auto quality people.

Success it’s scary a thing at times. When you fail once its human nature to second second guess your self. Then when you fail 2 3 4 5 6 7 times, people really start to question themselves. This is where people get separated, and STRONG get up back up and go HARDER because this no such thing thing failure in their mind. They can’t go back to to regular life, they gotta make it out the the SCARY ass jungle. Green pastures on the other side jungle are worth getting attacked by lions and all the others things along the way. LETS be real only few are gonna make it most people are gonna turn back at first sign of adversity in the jungle. You can live aight if you don’t make it through the jungle. But like my homie J cole said I am young Simba and I can’t wait to be king. Kings go wherever they please in jungle, but you gotta earn stripes.
Where do I start with John. Most people don’t know him, if he walked down the street in many places across the united states people wouldn’t have a idea who he is. Even here in Chicago his home town most people have no clue who John is. I promise you though anyone who someone in Chicago knows who John is. I am talking anyone from Oprah, Michael Jordan, to president of united states of America barack obama.
Let me start with Johns story so you can get to know him a little better. He born into a well to do family, well educated with great jobs. John’s dad gave him stock, for his 12th birthday, and from that day he fell in love with investing. When you develop a love for something at 12 and continue to work on your passion there is good chance for success at very young age.
He went on to study at Princeton university, and he was star basketball player there. Then 3 years after graduating he started his own firm with loans from friends and family. He started Ariel investments with just one employee, and worked very hard to grow it. Each year he would gather new clients, and his family connections helped out a lot.
Today he owns the largest african american owned investment firm in the nation. He would spend a lot of his time after school in early years at stock broker office. You know how a lot of people like to spend their time facebook or myspace John would spend it a office.
Your connections in life can only take you so far, and John had the knowledge and passion to back up his company. So that’s why today he owns a multi billion dollar company.
When you are a winner everyone wants to hang with you, and that is the case for John. He also sponsors a lot of events across the nation.
He has a GREAT heart, every year he helps out a lot of kids from the inner city get into investing world. He teaches them, and a lot of them go on become very successful. They run accounts and learn how trade and everything in johns class.
