I’ll also add.. I’ve been building 3 businesses on the side, have a six figure investment portfolio, and a whole lot of credit. This was not a throwing caution to the wind scenario. It was also less than ideal. Be inspired but don’t throw your life away bc of optics.

Everyone in the comments who disagree with how this went down need to see the following images. OP can face legal action for denying a loan (extension of credit) to buyer based on anything other than buyers ability to repay, regardless of the terms. Buyer made buyers choice 🤷🏾♂️

I personally think it’s nasty work comparing the financial success (or failure) of Black Americans against other ethnic groups in an attempt to deny the existence of generational traumas and systemic racism regardless of our ability to navigate those obstacles.

Can I just add that the overflow of love and support was unexpected. Like I said I’ve always done everything right. No write ups, never got a do not meets, always did as asked… but the stress and micro aggressions and mismanagement of my talent pushed me out the door.

💎 My dad told me to ALWAYS send an invoice even if you’re doing them a favor.
Send that invoice with your price crossed out. That way they know you are about your business and your discount is a favor to them.

"We can’t control how the Kiyosaki’s, Cardone’s, or Ramsey’s think or feel about their Black audiences. We don’t know their intent other than by what they put out verbally or in written format. But we can certainly control how we elevate them and make them richer."

I paid a $50 tip on a $60 bill & the waiter comes back & says “are you sure? This is a large tip!” Made his whole day he looked like he was about to cry. This is especially meaningful for me because my income is not regular anymore but you reap what you sow.

It’s not imposter syndrome that makes you doubt yourself. It’s the fact that you are measuring your worthiness against people whose lived experiences are different from you. The mere act of overcoming is what got you in those rooms. You can’t compare your story to theirs.

Sometimes the greatest demonstration of love is to leave.
A person that truly loves you will never leave you or give up on you. No matter any situation.
