Interesting that many you think that not giving $4800 to that cousin that thought he was going to make $2million off of it is a bad idea.
Also interesting that most of the "if I was a billionaire/millionaire" types are never ever close to being any of those two. "If I was the starting Quarterback I would've" looking ass nyggas LOL
If you are over 25 you are an idiot.
If not, let me explain:
Once you start making hundreds of thousands or more, you are RICH to someone in your family. Go pro, became JayZ or Lil Baby, or Elon, than you are rich to EVERYONE you meet, family or not.
ANYONE who comes to you with an opportunity that sounds hella stupid is getting scammed. So you minds well give the $4800 to the person your cousin is going to give it to to "make $2million" because once you are in the money rooms, you realize that no one in that room made $$ from TheColi threads on buying AMC stock
And, like others have said, he didnt say "please help me Im going to get evicted", he said "please help I have a great idea" - and yes, any normal dude would say "keep your idea fam, you better off doing something else".
I would wonder if Jay-Z or Kevin Hart cousins asked to intern or for an open position at one of their many businesses, would they skip the line over thousands of applicants (barring they were addicted to drugs or a super failure or something)
I saw comments saying "this is why black people cant get by" - no the hell it aint. The opposite is why black people go broke.
Watch the video of the white athletes in the locker room with the black athletes (NFL) and they white guys were AMAZED that the black players bought their parents a home with their checks, and were like "I would never buy my parents a home, they would never even ask for that"...
Now, I understand the dynamics of where we come from, but stop acting like other races "give away money" for stupid ass ideas
