Tyshawn Jones was being paid $83k a month ($1M/year) by Supreme to wear the brand every day. The contract was breached when he appeared in a photoshoot for Marc Jacobs.
Last year, Jones filed a $26 million lawsuit against Supreme, claiming wrongful termination, reputational harm, and lost income.

@LadePlatinum Not like it matters but I’m pretty sure the Ron Bass in the original video is genuine leather, it’s just painted over. Dude loved Basquiat.
There’s a scene in Breaking Bad where Walter White’s wife realizes he’s made $7.5 million and says:
“There’s no way we can wash this money through a car wash. No car wash in the world makes that kind of money in a year.”
That line hit me. Because it exposes a truth most people ignore: How much you earn is capped by the kind of business you run.
You can work harder, stay longer, even get smarter - but you’ll never make more than what your business model is designed to carry.
@MoneyMan People tell themselves they’re willing to accept the horrific honesty, but for whatever reason it always evokes unwarranted emotions. Oddly enough the beautiful lie gives the exact emotion you’d expect. Lose lose for the weak. Lesson for the wise.
