I'm home sick with an awful cold. Pray for me y'all! As I was lying in bed and lurking over at LSA I came across this gem in a post about how Asians become and stay wealthy.
"You're wondering all of the same things I'm wondering, and have been wondering! I want to be a business owner bad, but it seems easier for them than me and I was born here. I'm 2 steps away from asking my grandmother to give me a business loan for a little kick back from my business and no high interest. She's a mean little lady but as long as I get ahead I guess. I've had trouble finding loopholes and breaks from the state and stuff. Idk what it is I'm not doing.
The Somali man who sold my mom her car told me he bought an apartment building in college and rented it out to students, he paid for his education and home that way. Said, "I never wanted for shit!" lmao.
The way abowe macaan just casually gathered this AA girl with that line!!!:siilaanyolaugh:
My jaw dropped, I'm like how did you afford that? and if it was cheap because it was falling apart how did you get the money to get it up to code to rent out? How tf are they doing this? Are they just very creative? I need answers!
eta: I get a fire in my soul that drives me when I see a 14 year old Chinese girl with a vintage Chanel bag worth more than my entire wardrobe. lol"
Yaaaaas! Let's give it up for OUR Somali brother! A positive story about our brothers! Inshallah I'm going to save up my ayuuto money and convince some family members to do the same and go in on a property together.
