So What Do You Plan On Doing With Your Riches?

[Cold Truth]

we all want to get paid doing this, well those of us who are serious at least, and most of us just expect that we will make it in the industry.
so when you do make it and the paper starts rolling in, what are you going to do with it all? as producers we generally get paid better then mc's, once we blow that is.

i know the usual answers; buy moms a house and a car, upgrade your gear-music and clothes! thats the usual, but it seems to a higher degree- chains, custom suv, mansion, etc.,...

but are any of you looking to help people when you got the funds to do more than lavish yourselves with things that you cant take with you when you pass? anyone got any philanthropic goals with your money? just curious cause people blow, and get serious money and all they do is spend, spend, spend on a lot of useless status toys, which is up to them- if thats what they want to do, its their money. i am just curious if anyone besides myself wants to use their eventual status as a means of helping a cause or two and using that money to bless the lives of people who dont have what i got now, much less what i will have when i reach that point. any words here fellas?

hmmm...i didnt know that producers get more when they blow up.

well, firstly, i cant see myself blowing up. so i dont think im ever going to be rich.......and im happy with that, as long as i can get by and support a family.

however, if i ever where to blow up for some strange reason or if i won the lottery, id be keen to contribute to the less fortunate. id have trouble deciding where to contribute though. i suppose food for the hungry is at the forefront of anyones list. and anyone can do it with those dallar a day schemes. but i dunno if i like those schemes actually. sometimes i think they are just a big quest to turn the fragile into christians. then again, maybe im sadly mistaken. i mean, they do give you a photo of the child you sponsored and update you on their progress etc, so i suppose they must help them im some way. hmmmm its a tough one.....cos you cant help everyone.

what kind of less fortunate people do you want to direct your money towards truthtold?

 

[afriquedeluxe]

chances of blowin up r really small as i always say, but if i eva got nuff doh, i wudnt jus spend spend spend n b greedy not considerin da less fortunate, id try n help peeps up in da 3rd world n ting.

i kno money can change people, like 4xample i can b sayin da above but den if i got mils, i mite jus 4get everytin i wnted 2 do. i hope i wnt b like dat.....

well, as for the "feed the children" ilk, thats all good and well, they do help a lot of people with those types of programs. tahts cool, but not my style. i myself am more intersted in spending that type of money on building houses and better facilities for them, and start there.

one of the ordained pastors at my church- Ken Johnson, chaplin of the Indianapolis Colts (NFL)- is among the christians you speak of doing things over there. he himself goes and raises money and donates what he can as well to build orphanages for the kids who are... well, orphans.... and it is a good work, so you can be skeptical of "turning the fragile into christians" all you want, becasue where the christians are helping them live, there are many militant muslims that are slaughtering these same people as well as the christian missionaries. so wether you agree with the Christ factor or not, the fact of the matter is that these people are being helped; who else is doing it? the new agers who think they are their own god, that they will become one with mother earth and achieve that "higher state of conciousness"? i dont see them over there, 1500 miles from home, living their life to help someone else when they could be perfectly comfortable back home in a nice house and a tv and better food....be critical all you want..... wether you agree with the belief or not and the issue conversion or not, these people are being given a chance at a better quality of life by the work that these christians are doing.

ken has less money then any of the Colts players that he pastors and he has a hard time getting them to help the cause, it costs 1000 bucks to build a low end facility that just covers the basic need, and yet these guys will buy chains that run them $15000 but cant drop a g to give some kids with absolutely nothing a roof over their head at the very least. so they certainly arent doing much.

now, i myself am was a foster child and so naturally that is a major area for me. i am already working for an agency and about to begin several different things in the field..... but at some point i will take on other issues when the time is right. i am not one who wants to just give money to people, but rather build and develop programs and foundations whose sole purpose is fighting particular causes.

 

[Equality 7-2521]

as i said, i DO think the Christian schemes are helping.

and i like the idea of developing programs as opposed to just giving money to people. thats how you REALLY make a difference

i always wanted to do some stuff in jamaica, id build a couple schools, day-cares, i wish i could setup an unemployment office or somethin but thats gov. issues, so that wouldnt be possible for me. but id setup fund raisers and all that good stuff so i would always have the money to help without runnin out. i would build a couple subdivisions not projects or nuthin like that but real neighborhoods, and sell the houses for real cheap, of course it wouldnt be a dream house or nuthin like dat but it would be straight. i dont got enough time to finish sayin wut i would do but yea dats all when i blow up. (the studio goes without sayin)

 

[Ash Holmz]

One thing I would do is something for tha kids they are tha future. And where I live I know it's no different anywhere else, but tha kids had nothing to do. Tha "MAN" would rather build jail to my people in and make my people work in them. I not givin' up hope on my peers but their so blind by their "Tha Man" tactics. I heard something real disturbin' tha other day. Don't quote me but 50% of tha murder in tha US is black on black & we make up 5% of it's popilation some thing ain't right there "If that's a true statment". I can't believe everything. but can't close a eyez it thou, cuz you see some of that in ya own hoods. I see lil kids fathers hustlin', shootin' at each other moms either highed up, trickin', puttin' clothes on their backs kids walkin' around dirty parents just not givin' a f@*k. Kids half tha tyme not gonna to school. I these lil kids that live around me they bad too my girl can't stand'em. I talk to them a lot have them clean up around I'll pay them. So one day I seen one of them walkin' by my house, Me: What's up lil man" thaboy: Nothing. Me: Where you goin'. Tha boy: Nowhere, it ain't nothing to do. Don't nobody care bout these kids. So that's why when I do get some money hopefully I'll now what to do. I'm gonna do something for them. They don't deserve this sh*t. And for what add on to that disturbin' figure, nah hell naw!!! Right now I don't really know what I can do but just try to a positive light. I know did say much about what I would do wit my riches, but my man said besides self. P.e.a.c.e........ Sorry 4 gettin' off subject.

 

[BROUSSARD BEATS]

[voorheezMP]

Invest in property development thats where the REAL money is at. Plus I'd wanna help the people who struggle to survive due to war and poverty in the 3rd world
