Not breaking your cousin off $4800 when your a billionaire is foul af

Reminds me of when Dre cut off his allowance to his homeless daughter.

maybe his family is unpleasant and generally just not fun to be around

tbh he has a point

Realistically he got it out the mud

same with Kevin Hart
most of the people that come around to ask you for money at a family function like that probably didn't even fw him all that much before he was rich and famous

if they really had a solid relationship, they could contact him at a better time

or at least approach with a different level of respect than running up like a fan

its people that weren't willing to take that Risk in the beginning that feel entitled to a piece of your profits in the end & I think that's wrong

What do you expect from the guy who shot his own brother

professional snake and enemy of the people

its easy to make her out as a victim by reading the headline, but I'm sure she made her fair share of poor choices that landed her in the messed up position that she fell into. and that's not to shame her, we all make mistakes.

But it just feels like she crashed her life and expects her rich daddy to bail her out just because he has the funds, and not recognizing that she needs to take a level of accountability for where she's at

and you going home for solace, you go there for peace of mind

That is so fair, Jay Z I’m sure has so many friends & associates & co workers or w/e asking him for money day in & day out, he should be able to go home without his fam asking for money, that’s totally understandable imo

jayz might be one of the best rappers ever but he’s a f***ing airhead and just waffles for the sake of it bigger waffler than me

Not helping your own family when you're rich is some serious snake s***.

It’s really easy to judge from the outside but we truly don’t know this s*** man lol

Big facts

asking your rich relative in the middle of thanksgiving dinner for money is some scumbag s*** imo. place and time for everything

a f***ing billionaire cant spare 5k but he’s got a rolls royce boattail ($20m car not even mentioning the other cars he has), flies via private jet, has basquiats in his homes worth millions, has the most insane multimillion dollar watch collection. yet he can’t spare any s*** for his immediate family whilst rapping about wanting to build generational wealth. why build that wealth if even your family can’t use it and you're acting like using them for emotional labour from being rich and famous is fair. this nigga is stupid man. just hoarding money for no reason. has more time for robert kraft and meek mill than his family

one of the worst things u can do is spoil someone, it holds them back. i think a lot of these guys genuinely assume once they give anything they’re gonna spoil their loved ones. it’s a delicate balance that’s hard to control.

f*** billionaires all that of course but just tryna give another perspective i think ppl don’t see

you completely miss the point. There's a time and place for everything. Jay probably wants to enjoy his family on Thanksgiving without them constantly asking for money.

And his cousin is talking about flipping that 4800 into millions. He's trying to tell him it doesn't work that way and that he'll probably just lose it.

I remember Eminem’s aunt & uncle sued him because he promised them a house and he didn’t make good on the promise lol. How are you going to sue someone for not buying you a house?

He legit has enough money to set aside a negligible amount and let them live off the interest of it.

F*** out of here - this dude is African, he knows how African relatives are like (especially older generations). $4800 is less than 1 cent for someone like Jay Z. He can say "there's a time and place", but he should still help.

You can't constantly give everyone money in your family when your rich.

It creates entitlement and it usually never stops.

Plus everyone just sees you as a ATM machine.

Yall really dont get it.

HE IS A BILLIONAIRE lmfao

He could give every single person in his family $10M and not even notice

$4800 is negligible for his wealth, but I think he's trying to drive home the point of handing out money and those people possibly coming back for more. it may start a cycle of continual handouts/a dependency, which he doesn't want to start.

i have no say on that topic, but i feel like he's trying to say that, but just not openly

I can understand that - not wanting to give money all of the time. Hope he does help his family though in the first place
