2 years ago today I was released from prison after doing almost 9 years for trafficking cocaine and marijuana. I will never forget the day the cops raided my house with my baby mom her sister and 2 of my 4 daughters there. Cops took $50,000 cash bondsman charged me $10,000 cash to get out and I paid 2 attorneys $38,000 cash and in 3 months I had lost $100k in cash. I was sentenced to 10 years in prison and lost everything. Lost my money lost my family and didn’t see my daughters for almost 9 years. In 2011 my BM gets pregnant and leaves me but that same year I pick up a book called Rich Dad Poor Dad that changed my life. After reading this I read hundreds of financial books and took a college course in finance and learned about every facet of business and investing. I really liked real estate and studied that mostly and learned how to flip houses. I taught school in prison for 6 years teaching guys to read and write I helped guys get their diploma and tutored dudes in business.I came home and got full and complete custody of my girls kept reading and learning everyday listening to seminars and traveling to attend every real estate seminar I could find and in February 2018 I started my company 7Dime Home Buyers LLC. I worked on my business every day and sold sneakers to get by because I was determined not to go back to the streets but I only did 1 real estate transaction all 2018. People who love me told me to quit but I didn’t and 2019 has been completely different. I have done several real estate transactions this year and have made 6 figures already I took most of the money reinvested into myself and my business and will make another six figures before the year ends and by this time next year I will have a million dollar business. I’m not bragging but telling you this because I am a 5 time convicted felon been arrested 17 times did a decade in prison lost everything and still bounced back. A few years ago I was sitting in a cell and now I’m sitting in six figure business meetings. Even though I was an honor student I never graduated I got my diploma in prison learned how to flip houses in prison changed my life in prison and even though I almost got killed 2 times on some hatin shit I’m glad I did the time and wouldn’t take it back if I could. Thank you to everyone that helped me out along the way I really appreciate everything and will love you forever. To anyone reading this and going through something just keep pushing and never give up I promise you it will get better
