If you're too ignorant to actually watch the interview, the dude got tattoo's on his face to ensure that he woulden't go back into the work force. He wanted to be forced to have to be greater then just a 9-5. With the face tattoo's that eliminates most of his future job hirings, so now he must hustle and be a entrepreneur because he wanted to put himself in a position where that is the only way.

I had the pleasure of meeting this man at the water works park in Tampa, the city where I am from. Trust me, by the looks of him, I was waiting to see what he had to say. While I was there he said let me start by introducing my kids. This is what got my attention. He started asking his kids history questions, questions the average things that they do not teach in schools, further more that the average adult doesn't even know. He asked them about who was Huey P newton, Frederick Douglas , what did he stand for? He had my attention from that point on. He is the truth. I knew that because the knowledge he imparted into his children.

SOME Start up tee companies easily make $100,000 in as little as a few months. Replay the video, pay close attention and keep that in mind.
