Jayson Tatum’s Father gets deep on how the NBA is trying to Market the “Single Mother” image and trying to push the Dad’s out the picture.
Tatum’s Dad:
“I’ve seen it when it started with the Draft, Mom got interviewed, and I was sitting right next to it, nothing was asked to me, we know what it took to get our kids there. If stuff like that is going to break me, then I don’t need to be around.”
The Father’s of Jaylen Brown & Jayson Tatum, Lamelo & Lonzo Ball gathered around the round table to discuss this issue.
Dwayne Wade’s father is in the beginning of the clip. All these fathers were allegedly present in their kids lives and were being portrayed otherwise.
This is the dark side they don’t talk about.
A group of WOMEN running a WOMEN’S-ONLY sports league has to hold a meeting with other WOMEN to decide what a WOMAN is, so they can determine if I qualify as a WOMAN and eligible to compete against WOMEN in a league created specifically for WOMEN.
I see…

Tony Elumelu’s kids don’t need to read Rich Dad Poor Dad or binge content about wealth to learn how to “think rich.”
They are living inside that reality.
Wealth is not an abstract concept to them. They’ve seen it. They’ve experienced it. They’ve watched how their parents make decisions, spend money, negotiate, travel, invest, build businesses and interact with the world.
So when they eventually start businesses, they may naturally start from a mental model that is miles ahead of yours.
Meanwhile, if you grew up in a rough neighbourhood with parents who were constantly struggling, you may have to deliberately rewrite your mental model.
Because your mind is like a memory card.
It stores experiences, assumptions and beliefs about what is “normal.”
If everything you’ve ever seen is scarcity, you can unconsciously build a life around scarcity.
You may avoid opportunities that feel “too big.”
You may think certain lifestyles are unrealistic.
You may undercharge.
You may be afraid to spend money even when spending it would create more money.
You may see a ₦10M opportunity and immediately think, “Where would I ever get that kind of money?”
This is because your internal reference point was built around a completely different reality.
So expose yourself to a new one.
Read books. Travel. Spend time around people operating at a higher level. Watch luxury and business content. Visit places you’ve never been. Study how wealthy people live, think and make decisions.
No, watching luxury vlogs will not magically make you rich - but you cannot pursue a reality you cannot mentally picture.
If you have never seen something, your brain has no concrete reference for it.
And this is why exposure is so powerful.
Travel, books, conversations, documentaries, luxury vlogs and simply being around people who live differently can expand your idea of what is possible.
You are essentially giving your brain new files, new reference points and new definitions of “normal.”
The goal is to stop allowing the environment you were born into to become the ceiling of what you believe is possible.
Sometimes before you can build a new reality, you have to see one first.
Once cashflow increase, investing will get easier.
A friend of mine recently bought 11 plots of land, the week he saw the offer he was broke because he had put all his free cash in a business.
The next week he had the complete money to buy it outright, because the business produced enough free cashflow as profit.
Investing is easier when the money is coming in plenty.
The first step is to leave investing and work on your cashflow FIRST; start a business that produces enough cashflow such that your basic needs are met and surplus is produced to be channeled away into investments.
Dear men; anybody can cook and clean.
For N250k a month you can hire someone to do it at a professional level - make sure that these are NOT the basis for choosing someone to be with for the rest of your life.

@asemota This is insightful. Bascially, selling luxury requires a lived experience.
Quality precedes luxury,&cannot exist without exceptional,uncompromising quality, excellent craftsmanship etc. "Luxury" wiout these underlying characteristics is just overpriced products- story of Lagos
The fastest female, 100-meter sprinter in recorded history is American legend Florence Griffith Joyner. She set the world record of 10.49 seconds on July 16, 1988.
In 2026, there were over 1000 high school boys that beat this record! You read that correctly. In this year alone, there were over 1000 high school boys that beat the record of fastest woman in the world ever!
If just one of those boys, or a meager 1/10 of 1%, decided to compete as a woman, he would crush the women’s world record!
I’m not talking about a high school record or a college record or even an Olympic or professional record. I’m talking about the women’s world record that has held since 1988!
Remind me again, why you’re not supportive of women’s rights.
They ask Warren Buffett in an interview:
"What is true wealth"?
Warren Buffet: "True wealth is not having the biggest house or the most expensive car.
It is having enough money to live comfortably while being free to choose how you spend your time, who you work with, and the life you want to live.
In the end, time and freedom are the greatest forms of wealth".
(Charlie Rose, 2009)
“Many Of You Have Always Wondered Why You’re Advised Not To Give Water To Accident Or Gunshot Victims. If You Ever Come Across Someone Who Has Been In An Accident And They Desperately Ask You For Water, Your Natural Instinct May Be To Help. But Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Because Giving Them Water Could K!ll Them.” ~ Nigerian Nurse Explains.
Billionaires teach us money lessons all the time if we pay attention.
Dangote is as capitalist as they come. What would cause this man to give up 1/3 of his wealth?
The answer is nothing.
That wealth stays in the family.
The family will own the foundation. His children will be the managers/trustees.
As managers, they'll be entitled to rumeneration. They can fund their lifestyle through it.
The donation itself is tax free.
Administration is not free. Some of it will goto worthy causes I trust but a lot of it will just roundtrip within the same billionaire foundations ecosystem where they pay for vehicles, travel and other personal expenses using untaxed donations.
Instead of paying a wealth tax in jurisdictions that charge it. They get to transfer what they need for day to day lifestyle expenses to a foundation that pays for them.
The rest will be locked in in trusts that own shares in companys they get dividends from. They can even borrow against their shares in these companies if the interest rate is favourable and pay interest instead of tax.
They pay as little tax as possible and keep their lifestyle.
It's all legal.
They will never have waist beads to get job in an Oil company, Gas or Tech.
No beads to get shares and stocks in Tesla, Google or Nvidia.
No waist beads to become secretary of United nations or OPEC
Always beads to get gifts from men.
Such a useless product
“There were times I thought God had showed me something but He wasn’t”.
“There were prophecies I gave that weren’t accurate and weren’t from God. And for that, I wish that people will forgive me as I’m only human”
-Benny Hinn.
A leading father of the prosperity gospel.
Women are interesting.
They claim to know how to raise children better than men.
But they avoid men raised by women.
If you 🫵🏾 take women seriously, we can't even be business partners.
I will rarely take you seriously, as a man.
Learn or learn the hard way.
in 1984 buffett settled the luck vs skill debate with 225 million imaginary coin flippers. wall street still pretends he didn't.
may 17, 1984. columbia business school, 50 years of graham and dodd's security analysis. buffett sets up a national coin-flipping contest: 225 million americans bet $1 each, losers drop out daily. after 20 mornings, arithmetic alone leaves 215 people who called 20 flips straight and turned $1 into over $1 million. they write books. they gather followers.
then the twist. a professor objects that 225 million orangutans would produce the same 215 winners. buffett agrees, and adds the test that matters: but if 40 of those winning orangutans came from one zoo in omaha, you would go ask the zookeeper what he feeds them.
his zoo was real. he showed 9 fund managers, all trained by ben graham, all beating the market over decades, each with different portfolios. chance manufactures individual winners on schedule. what chance does not manufacture is a cluster of winners sharing one method, identified in advance.
forty years later the timeline is still full of 20-streak coin flippers selling courses. the test has not changed. never ask about the streak. ask where the village is.
