   Choppa,

   Good point! Money rehab should maybe a course taught in school. I don’t know at what age level, But maybe middle school. Teach our kids how to give of themselves instead of gimme, gimme, gimme.

   I will get bad to you about one of the famous people I think should go to Rehab. I think you may know her from her reality show and it’s not “I love New York” but it is a women.

   There’s a book that touches on that called “Rich Dad, Poor Dad.” I believe anyone who wants to be good with there money should read it.

   Everyone coonin’ for cash, setting back the race for a quick buck, poisoning our people [literally and figuratively] and pimpin’ the lowest common denominator.

   The list is too long but if you want some candidates watch damn near any rap video, bad sitcom, or show on BET then listen to morning FM radio in NYC - that should get you started.

   As a woman I know how it is to put on a pharsad to the people around you. When females go to the club, they take a few hours to prepare themselves to go to the club. Wearing fake purses, fake diamonds, and clothing put together that appears to be a lot more expensive than they really are!

   The men buy knock off True Religion Pants That they purchased for $350 off the regular retail price, from the homeboy on the block who sells them from the trunk of his car. Not to mention the gentlemen who pop bottles in the club, and then get nauseous in the morning when they check their account balance.

   Just like my man C3 said, “Everyone is coonin’ for cash” and I think that these are the individuals who need rehab the most. I’m a little older, but was listening to Cassidy’s new album the other day, and a featured artist on one of the songs said Money is not the Root of all evil; it’s not having it that is. When you don’t have it, you’ll do anything do get it, or pretend like you do. Just like crack. Therefore it merits rehab

7. Q.

   Check http://www.RealEd.org some of us are teaching in schools..

   But, my list would start with 50, Diddy and Hov.. They would all have to enroll in “How I can help other small minority businesses succeed”..

   Next would be LeBron, Dwight Freeney, and A-Rod.. They would all have to enroll in “What not to do when you become the richest dude in sports”..

   Lastly would be Oprah.. In a class in which only she can enroll, she would also have to teach.. “How to say ‘eff you’ to the man and live to tell it”..

   I don’t want to come off hatin because everyone sucess in our community is our sucess. K. Simmons show represents to me one who need rehab. There I said it. although she has a right to her money and her fame she worked hard to get it, but at the same time her messages to young children is that everybody needs blings. I think it is going overboard. She has two beautiful daughters who seem to be following in her footsteps (Just my filling.” like I said she deserves her riches but I don’t think little children can benefit from the message I see. Hey we said in another article that we need to tell people and not be afraid to express our filling. So if you think I’m wrong “let me have it” and also how to embrace what we all fill. I have nothing but love.

   LOL @ A MOM———-girl I hate on Kimora all the time!!!! Yes - she is the epitome of RICH BITCH!!! If you look it up in the dictionary you will see her big head plastered right next to the definition…..lol…lol….lol!!!! Nah, but really, Kimora is a definite force to be reckoned with and she worked hard and earned what she has so I’m a definite fan. I just hope with all of the spoiling she does for her daughters she also teaches them integrity and compassion and charity. If I was rich I would lavish my kids with the finest of everything too but with a balance of hard work and discipline. ((no Prada wthout cleaning your room first…*wink*)) She and Russell Simmons definitely recycle a whole lot of their black dollars to the hood so I know there is substance behind the glamorous life and the exorbitant amount of cash she flings around. Give me the opporunity to be that rich and I would do everything in my power to move mountains!!!!!!

    People are so based on materialism but the sad reality is that you can’t take it with you when you die!All the worldly possessions don’t secure your place in Heaven and then you realized I’ve lost my soul and based my existence on mere money. I’ve seen it happen far too many times, its like people forget about right and wrong and concentrate on accumulating more wealth, at any cost. All the money, in the world, does equate to happiness, believe me. When you are lying on your death bed, you’ll remember special moments, your loved ones and your greatest life achievemnets but not your red porsche, 30 gucci bags or how many bottles you popped, in a club. I would nominate Floyd Mayweather and Donald Trump to the club, along with Baby, from Cash Mony and Kimora Lee.
