Im nowhere near as rich as Jay. But i got a lil paper. Im living good and got some money coming in. I have to tell family and friends "no" all the time. My older cousin asked to borrow $10,000 for this property to invest in. I asked him "when is the last time you had 10k in your hands". He told me "man that aint shit, i had 10k a few months ago" an then I asked him "what did you do with it" maaaaaaan that boy all of sudden had a stuttering problem. They cant do right with their own money, fuck you think they will do with your money? Going to trick it off and try to use blood as a way out of paying. Im good. I was born at night, not last night

If I was a family member of Jay Z I would just ask if I could work for him in any capacity

People are really entitled these days. Im not giving nobody shit for nothing. I don’t care how much money I got. You come to me during normal business hours , instead of in my grandma living room,with a plan and contract in place about how imma get my money back then we can talk. aint shit free but air.

He never said he doesn't ...he just said he doesn't inflate false dreams and quick money scams because someone in the family has money😂

The point JayZ is trying to make is imagine if he had to give money to everyone who asked him for it. It don’t work like that, whether it’s 4K or 400. People look at him like a walking ATM when he’s there to spend time with his family

I’m surprised that’s all he ask for was 4,500 lol. He ain’t ask for 20k

They were roasting Hov for not helping a hypothetical cousin. Social media is filled with morons.

I feel this 💯 family ask for money so much everytime they talk to you it’ll make you not even want to be around those family members anymore this happens to the rich and everyday people as well

Creating a family fund with boundaries is a good idea. I would hire someone certified to manage and provide quarterly reports. Need to know if the requests are abused or stewarded.

Getting business advice from these dudes is like watching a live circus. 😂

This isn’t just in celebrity rich ppl life. This shit goes on in middle class life as well. Family just always feels so entitled. Once ppl in your family know u got more money than them on a usual consistent basis, you’re always going to be considered as the ace in their pocket whenever they need money. They expect u to be a bank whenever they need financial assistance.

I can’t believe people continue to actually miss what he said. Context was clear.

If yall don’t get the new pod up 😂😂😂

The fact is that if you give someone money; especially someone who’s not used to money, they’re not going to invest it; they’re not going to utilize it properly; they’re going to spend it flippantly, and eventually - without fail - they will come back and ask you for more. Come with a business plan, a PROPER business play, come with your own capital already, come with the seeds of success already sewn and THEN say “hey man, I’m RIGHT HERE, I just need a push”. Then sure, we can talk business. But just lending you business on the strength of family? That ain’t it, fam. Why should a man give a way a million dollars to someone just because he’s a billionaire? That’s insane. Come with a plan. Show that you have your shit together.

Joe it’s been a min love the insightful coverage entertaining AF 😎

The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)

Lol I thought I had pressed OLS4 by mistake with the way Joe started off wit that "Tell Me....."

It may just be me but I really think the point is, you CANNOT flip $4800 into $2B dollars because if this "hypothetical" cousin had the skillset to do so, he would not be asking AND money literally does not work like that.

i gotta say , yall got some of the best audio in the business!

Only Jay Z really knows his family well enough to know if it's worth him investing in any of them. Maybe the cousin has a drug habit or alcoholic and it's difficult to trust the guy will not use that money for drugs etc. If I had that wealth and a genuine family member or friend who had a good business idea and it was a dream of theirs, I'd certainly help. But you have people who don't want to help themselves regardless.

Yoo my G where the pod at? Streets need that 3AM in Edgewater

Respectfully - Jay Z’s critics were deliberately missing the point and I think y’all speaking on it are deliberately missing the point of the pushback Disingenuousness to go around IMO

I'm so happy I found Joe's podcast this is hilarious😂😂😂

"I don't believe in your lil lollipop business my G" 😆

Aye Joe stop playing with us man 😂 Drop the episode!!

Black people always rapping about making it getting rich and taking care of they’re families but as soon as it happens they say it doesn’t work that way 😂😂😂😂

3:56 nuff said be a blessing!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

IF JAY-Z IS MY COUSIN, IM ASKING HIM FOR A JOB AND ADVICE…THAT WAY I CAN MAKE “4,500” DAILY 🤷🏾‍♂️

At 7 minutes and 34 seconds sounds like she talking about child support to me lol

Wait…. It’s Thursday. No JBP???

That was a hypothetical statement and he was saying that Kev runs into the same situation

These women were really on it during this episode. They are highly intelligent and thoughtful individuals. As for the topic, I could pass someone a few dollars. Even if I explained to them that that moment was not the time to discuss matters. I would break my cousins (that I mess with like that) off with some bread. It's what I've always done.

When it ain't a new pod so you come back to see wassup

Because his cousin is going to take that $4,500 and go buy a chain and some Jordans

You have define "family". If it's siblings who have fed and sheltered you and supported you, they can get all of that returned. If it's your second cousin who you saw once a year....

Listen, my family gave me this same energy when I started my business. Before I even turned a profit. Giving to your family because of entitlement is not the solution. Setting them up to succeed may be more realistic. Maybe send them a credit repair and financial literacy coach.

Remember when people said they’d choose dinner with Jay Z over $500,000?..

I know personally how things go when ur financially stable (regular ppl financially stable) & u GIVE family money for all their “IDEAS” & I also know what it’s like when that money runs out & those ideas DONT work.

I have mixed feelings. One on hand I don't think people should be entitled. But on the other hand, I think if you become a billionaire, it's reasonable to look out for family. I'd be giving them money as a gift. It obviously wouldn't be a regular thing, but I'd look out where I can. I'm not even a 100,000 aire but I still give family money. Send my moms money every month

"King of telling bitches no, I should play for Hornets" 😂 love that line

DROP THE DAMN EPISODE LMFAO

Trav walking on the table proves he’s a clones robot. That’s some sims shit

5:38:00 ayoooooooo 😂😂😂😂😂

Competent family members should be the first to be invested in. At the same time I’m not investing just because you are family

That's a lot of money lol

I just gave my homie $50 bc he needed it. I have $60k in the bank. So I gave him .08% of what I had. If Jay Z had $100m and he gave $4500 that would be .004%. Money doesn’t “work” by itself. People have money and make it work how they want. If I had $100M every single family member and most close friends will never have to work again.

Most millionaires/billionaires today was given a handout from their families at some point! These lot are just greedy

Naw not giving your cousin 4800 is crazy lol 😂

Jay say he want peace of mind when he’s with family but his family broke they don’t have peace of mind cause they struggling, they ain’t tryna chill and watch a movie with you they want you to help them with a money move so they can be up with you! Not hard to understand and it’s sad Hov still ain’t get to that point of understanding.

I have family that always ask for money, they just have to ask all the time. I also have family members who no matter how bad they are doing they never ask for money. Even when i offer or even sneak money to them, they will not accept it if they know its from me.

There's no such thing as money problems. There are only behavior problems.....and money doesn't change behavior problems.

Joe foul not giving us the pod today. On a Wednesday that’s when we need it, on hump day. Pause

Honestly speaking, no amount you give will ever be enough, they'll always be someone with their hand out. We all know what money can get us, we all know why we want it...your family coming at you for having it in large amounts is the trade-off for you having said large amount in the first place...

Just because a person has billions, doesn't mean they owe anyone anything.

damn, never knew so many people are so worried about what another man do with his money

All this off of a hypothetical situation in an interview from months ago lol…the internet is a wild place

Just when all the attention is back on Joe, he puts this weeks episode exclusive to Patreon....Podding ain't free neither I suppose

The best thing fhey said was, if youre not educated anout money, someone giving you some or winning the lotto will not answer your money peoblems. You wont know how to maintain it or make more

And if I'm your bank I'm going to treat you like the bank treats people. You want a loan, fill out this application. It's a lot of people that don't even know how banks work from a RETAIL standpoint lol

People are entitled AF! Why would I guilt trip a family member for not loaning me HIS/HER money?

I understand both sides . If you have a wealthy family member and you don’t get to see then except once every few years around the holidays and you’re broke , of course you gonna pitch ideas . Unless you wanna remain broke . But someone who’s that successful , when they come around family , they just wanna kick it for a few and see you next time 🤷🏾‍♂️

Tbh them families that actually was there for you get lazy and the ones that weren’t around asking for a hand out.

I totally understand how it feels to want to come home and just chill with family but can’t cause someone gotta ask for money or SOMETHIN! My whole military career I could never come home and visit family without someone beggin. I get it 🤦🏽‍♀️

treat the reverb level of that podcast with some acoustic panels

You ain’t got family if they make it but y’all family when you both broke

If you confident enough to turn 4800 to 2 mil Then you should be confident enough to scrape up 4800 however you can 🤷🏽‍♂️

He prolly gave them money before, but they splurged it

The title 😂😂 so annoying man but simply true

This is a much bigger conversation that needs to be thoroughly broken down, their opinions though valid points were made it lacked a greater level of understanding

He can give the white man millions of dollars for a watch or a painting. But can’t throw his cousin a couple bands to get on his feet. I’d feel a way too. I guess this answers the question “$500,000 or dinner with Jay-Z” take the money. Jay-Z only does good deeds for publicity and he only helps people who are already rich and he definitely doesn’t want to see anyone do better than himself

“You wasn’t w/ me shooting in the gym”

FAX!

I agree with Jay 💯if one of my family members was a billionaire, I would never ever ask them for money. I have too much pride and they don’t owe me shyt.

why even expose family stuff like that?

That Top is holding for dear life.

Hov didn't waste time blowing money on ... Champagne Jewellery Private jets But helping family is a problem

Bring 85 south show plz..

How long ago did Hov say this? & it’s just now becoming an “issue”?

People won't ever respect UNEARNED money. So many stories of people hitting the lottery and crashing out. You got to get it yourself. 💯

People are very generous with other people’s money.

Right. when you actually work hard, you’re not about to pay anyone’s way

The overall point was truly missed 🤦🏾‍♂️

♥️ I know what Moneey is... An excellent local 608 artist and humanitist. Great Fella

I’m just glade none of these people are my family 😂😂😂

Once you start handing it out, there's no limit to the times they come back for more.

Fam if I am worth 2.5 BILLION!! (Let's not front his liquid is DEEP!) And a family member had a well thought-out business plan to jumpstart and I mean they did the research and etc then yes I will help them and even guide them in that process to help them succeed when I can and if not I will also put them onto my own financial advisor too! And shoot creating a family fund is also a good idea, but at the end of the day the older folk in my family will be well taken care of. The young folk just need guidance to learn to work and push for greatness. Also let's be real we all do know you can give a max of 15k to family members per year as a gift and can write it off your taxes..... *shrugs* lol

Regardless of how much you have, you cant just give money away to anyone. If I have 100million, there are individuals in my family who I won’t give 20 bucks too because I know they will go and buy a cheap bottle. And I’m the bad guy lmaoo😂

Just because that said person is Jay Z family member, doesn’t mean they’re entitled to his money. He had to work for everything he has so it’s really his decision if he wants to give it out. Also it depends on the family member as well. They obviously know he’s rich and will take advantage of that. So if he gave the cousin the money then cool and if not that’s cool to because it’s HIS MONEY he doesn’t owe anybody anything.

Where the new pod Joe!!!!??? Stop playing!!!

Someone always wants to pitch the person that has money. Every time you see family someone thinks it a money grab situation and you are their personal ATM.

This comment section is a perfect example of the crabs in the barrel mentality. The Black community suffers REAL BAD with this one smh.

Easiest way to get broke really fast is dashing money out to family member on business that makes no sense ... i am not rich and my family members be pocket watching ... and if offer them a Job the act like beneath them ...

Get your own

If he gives one family member that, just think of how many others will come begging for some. Theres a difference between taking care of family and just giving a handout.

Seen what happened to mc hammer when to try to take care of everyone. Never understood street Hustler's selling dimes and 20s for years. No plan just enough to pay a bill or some J's. No goal, no plan, no growth no future.

This clip like many was taken out of context. This interview was done a on time ago on Kevin Hearts show. That wasn't an actual situation number nothing. However people don't have money therefore they don't understand money. So this is a prime example just let fools talk. You shouldn't argue with fools you will be a fool with them.

People purposely miss the overall point of what he said to just HATE on Jay.. Hating on Jay is a new trend. Is the world we live in 🤦🏽‍♂️

Its a slippery slope. Because they a trick 100k on a chick on bags, cars, trips, jewelry and buy themselves million dollar cars and houses but won't give your fam a quarter of that... but its your money and can spend it however you want slippery slope but if you can spend it on a random broad that wont miss you when you gone you can help the fam. But i understand the concept of "i need love not you asking for stuff"

What If that investment worked though.....

Learn money management 🙏🏿.
