We've all had something happen to us in life that we could learn from. It doesn't have to be tragic or unfortunately, but what has happened in your life that warranted the best advice you ever recieved? What was the advice?
When I was 14, I got off the trolley in Camden, NJ, with a bulky MP3 player, a UNC Jordan throwback, and the baby blue and white Jordan I's. I got held up at gunpoint. I told my cousin about it and he said, "that's what you get for being a pretty boy. Dress for the weather, and the environment, lil' n*gga." Outstanding advice. |

I remember one episode in my life that I was being manipulated by chauvinistic bitches and getting really money-hungry to the point I was just using and dumping my friends for some loot to get some. Then one night I sat down with one of my friend's brother-in-law with some beers and was being real with him. He understood and just told me,
"Bitches come and go but your homies got your back. How you gonna sweat a hoochie over your boys?" and "You make that money. Never let it make you." |
