@SIRIUSXM Where were those tears and cares when Monique got blackballed for talking about the same subject for 10+ years?

@SIRIUSXM Yall gotta stop thinking these entertainers are rich. They need to stop going into it expecting to become rich talent. The money is always behind the camera. I will say though, Taraji needs to be paid like top white women actresses aka Julia Robert’s.

@SIRIUSXM This is happening in the corporate world as well.

@SIRIUSXM When she said I’m tired of working… I felt that. I didn’t even need to watch anymore of the clip.

@SIRIUSXM Yes, you have to work a lot and very hard when you buy a 6 million-dollar home. If you want to work on your own terms or retire buy a >2 million dollar home and bank the rest.

Well i have never ever bought a new car off a lot. Yeah thats my biz but the point is The math in these biz is always shared & split with Governments the added unwanted partnership and others. Ownership is entirely another horse to feed because no outsider knows or really cares to GAF. I built years back and this year but we overstand people will continue to math at the known conglomerates , monopolies and corps just because. So you will forever get twisted in someone else’s MATH going to them.

@SIRIUSXM No need to cry about it. Just lower your living expenses and put in more work. The money that you did make during peak season should have went into investments and not a bunch of liabilities. It’s a daily grind and it’s not easy. Just keep pushing
