When you finally start climbing out that hole — when you finally start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel — don’t be surprised when the phone start ringing. And it ain’t ringing with “Congratulations.” It’s ringing with: “Hey man, can you help me?”

Let me tell you something.
Success don’t just bring blessings. It bring relatives you ain’t heard from since the cookout in ‘92!

Everybody got a dream, a plan, a business idea — and all they missing is YOUR money! 😂

Now don’t get me wrong… I’m all for helping folks when I can. But sometimes you gotta wonder: “Where was all this love when I was eating peanut butter sandwiches with no jelly?”

You ever had somebody hit you up with a full presentation like it’s Shark Tank?
“See, Steve, if you invest $5,000, I can turn it into $100,000 in two weeks…”
Bruh, if that was the case….?

WATCH NOW

Here’s the real deal:
When God blesses you, He also expects you to get some sense.
You gotta learn to say “No” — with love — but with a firm NO.
Because if you don’t, you’ll find yourself broke again — trying to help people who was just fine not helping you.

Remember: Everybody who call you “family” ain’t family. Some people just using your blessing to dodge their own lessons.

Stay prayed up. Stay smart. Stay grateful.
And sometimes… stay unavailable. 😂

Love y’all.
