Amazing✅ This was a “Katt Williams” on Shannon Sharpe interview. The way yall asked her questions and she went HARD (Pause) dropping fact, names & stayed all the way in compliance was EPIC. We need to raise some money and put into her fund immediately. Can’t wait to see the impact from yall connection. #KeepBuilding

Mylah was interviewed on CNBC Television. You can use something else, for me the strategy works hence my result. She provides entry and exit points for the securities I focus on.

Sounds like she’s a middle man basically, really wanted to hear is she turning a profit or not. I understand what she’s doing but maybe I’m not informed enough bc respectfully wasn’t anything truly answered and this was all over the place, and it definitely also sounded like charity. Salute to her though!

@michelle8005 4 ай бұрын

Sounds like Mark is trying to mentor her low key. Hopefully she doesn’t let her ego get in the way. A fund is great but useless without returns for investors. She needs to figure out how to generate money from the companies she’s invested in stat. That takes vision and unity.
