  1. Damn bro, you touched a nerve with this one. The black community, our family, has destroyed so many brothers through the years. Luckily my father could see the future and prepared me for it. I’m not very close with family anymore, but it’s cool, my life is my own and that’s all that matters……

  2. People hate me cuz I talked about accountability all the time it's like foreign in the black community to actually hold people to accountability

  3. Imagine having parents who were stingy af towards you growing up, but then later began hinting around about things they need when you grow up and they've run out of all their own resources and are now old af. SMFH. NOPE.

  4. So true brotha! Most folks seem to be very under appreciative…another grown adult is not obligated to help anyone out!

  5. When my mother got Alzheimer's I ended up taking care of her by my damn self. All the Dr appointments, adult daycare, prescriptions, meeting case workers was on me. She was completely unable to do for herself so she gets a pass. My other bum ass family members can eat the corn out of a turd for all I care. With the exception of a few.

    FYI the shaming tactic for niggas is you ain't no "real nigga" for not giving them shit.

  6. ?????,if you fail to plan,you plan to fail.This is why i cut off some of my family members and friends because they will try to make you feel obligated to they no good ass.These same folks low key hating on me yet looking to barrow.This is rampant with black folks,fuck these losers,dont save them.Dont sacrifice for any of them,dont let them turn you into the black sheep of the family.I told a female i am not marrying into poverty and of course she left.Great topic Oshay

  7. Broke people are like people who can't swim. They had ALL THE TIME IN THE UNIVERSE to learn but they never got around to it and they want you to save them. When you try to save them they will push your head down beneath the water to keep themselves afloat. It's up to them to sink or swim. Don't help them.

  8. Good video, always having to support family that don’t plan and broke friends is one of the major hindrances to blacks accumulating wealth.

  9. I disagree. Black folks ain't into church like they were 30 years ago. I see broke whites and blacks just SLIMING through life…BUT …..they have a car from some high interest auto shop, they do the check cash stores, and they have the latest cell phones. Heck the average American is 20,000 in debt and doesn't have a 400 dollar rainy day fund. Stay away from these types. And for goodness sake dont marry anyone like this…they'll drag you down
