She sacrifice her 20s to build long term wealth. She worked 60-80 hours/week. Would you?

I'm doing this right now :stopitslime:

I did and don't regret it. Not to a crazy extent, but I was a avg hood nicca and got married at 22 and worked crazy hard on my career throughout my 20's and by 30 I bought my second house and had six figures saved. I didn't even start really drinking, partying, or smoking at all til I was 30 cause I was so focused on working and making sure my family and I would be able to live comfortable.

So by the time I was 30 I was stable and able to travel and party with money in my pocket. Meanwhile people my age wanted to talk about how "Lucky" i am to have the little bit of comfort I have now. Nah this was me working 6am - 6pm as many days a week as I had to, to outperform these CACs and get to the money. That old thing about having to work twice as hard as them is unfortunately true, so knowing that, I did what I had to while I had the time and energy to do it.

It really depends on the individuals drive, ambition and dedication for success at the end of the day.

I got homies who were straight up drug addict/party goers/smutted out hoes at house parties in their 20s and are now real estate investors and physicians.

:yeshrug:

She missed out big time. No stories to tell when she gets old. Shieeet by reading her tweets, she probably gonna die alone with that attitude.

I guess this matters if you want the stories you tell to be about how you were a drug addict/smut/club head :yeshrug:

I think it would be best if people just stopped bragging for any reason. There's really no justification for it. Like I said before if she really wants to uplift people there's no need for her to announce all her accomplishments.

How you live in South Philly but think you need to fly to Italy for good Italian food??

Nothing worse than a female LAME! :snoop:

If it was a dude talking like this, he would be clowned out the room. bytch the reason you didn't enjoy your 20s is NOT because you were working so hard,

it's because you're SOCIALLY INEPT and a CONDESCENDING a$$hole!

Same shyt breh

I make a decent living, good job, good job security

It amazes me when I meet people that say shyt to me like "You still smoke weed?"

Like....nikka....your doctor probably smokes weed. Your lawyer probably smokes weed. Your accountant probably smokes weed.

I know this because instead of going to Law School, I chose the MBA route. Some of my friends are doctors and attorneys: THEY DO DRUGS

shyt some of them do more drugs than ME...I vape weed and occasionally have a drink

I know people who are 40+ still doing yip and partying with college girls and shyt on the weekend....AND THEY'RE MARRIED :mjlol:

The shyt is all relative...everyone is different....everyone's route is different...everyone's "flex" is different....

Didn’t say Temple was worldly but bringing up the hiring manager scenario if that hiring manager went to temple it’s more like

:ehh: She went to my Alma mater bring her in. I work for the government I’ve seen this up close.

Yep I have seen it too. shyt I got one job because of the college I went to in grad school. Hell my sister went to Indiana University and got one gig because the hiring manager graduated in her class.

So yes it works at times. Same way being from the same state and city helps as well. VP hired me on another gig cause him and I were from chicago.

Might not be the end all be all. But if there is a tie in terms of the candidates. Where you are from and where you got your degree from can be the tie breaker.

Call me old fashioned but its just weirdo shyt to me. To go online and brag about shyt you have to people you don't know.

Second don't folks understand that people will kill your ass over some money. Hell look at pop smoke....folks gonna learn chill with posting everything on social media.

shyt even on here I watch what I say. Never know who is out there willing to try you for what you got. Jokers need to learn to keep shyt clandestine and shut they mouths.
