Don’t address him as a woman dawg. He’s 12 years old. He’s not up there yet.” Flash forward to October, and Iron Mike Tyson confronted Boosie about his comments while the rapper was a guess on his “Hotboxin With Mike Tyson” podcast. “I really commented on the Dwyane Wade situation because I got of...

Mike Tyson: You Can Be A Genius In Your Career But A Financial Imbecile!
Mike Tyson: You Can Be A Genius In Your Career But A Financial Imbecile! Hear this: You can be an academic genius but a financial imbecile! You can be a graduate and still be financially illiterate. Likewise, you can be uneducated and employ graduates because of your great financial skills. Academic qualification is different from financial sense. I have seen a man working as a personal driver building his own house while his boss was still living in a rented apartment. This explains why we have more ‘illiterates’ as landlords and graduates as tenants! Your financial future will put a great demand on your financial intelligence. Your financial habits, and not necessarily your degrees and certificate, will determine whether you will be rich or perpetually poor. Many graduates don’t have fin...
