Jay Z sold a lot more crack than I ever have. Maybe I need to step up my crack game lol Mods this is not a serious post and I do not advocate selling illegal drugs.

I got no hate. He at least worked to get his money, unlike some of the billionaires who were born into elite families and were set up for success.

It definitely makes me sour having so many people struggling to make ends meet while there seems to be a new billionaire every day.

There's nothing wrong with selling drugs, it's as valid as any other job.

Anyway I like to sleep and do nothing. Presumably JayZ does not sleep.

I think this topic and the fact that you keep making them indicates you have some kind of hang up or fixation. You should be asking yourself this question and maybe then you can get over it or something. I know it sucks not to be rich but you can still have a fulfilling life full of not posting the same topic over and over again on a video game message board.

Indeed. He would have been in jail and lived a relatively unknown life if he didn't leave town for this one album recording gig, just in time to accidentally dodge a drug bust. For every one of him, there are thousands of guys on his path that ended up as a statistic, whether in jail or in the grave. There's zero reason to ever compare yourself to him.

You can say that for anyone successful.

"If they never did blank then blank wouldn't have happened"

Problem is, you can't consistently grow your status to billionaire levels for decades by being "lucky"
