I was with one millionaire friend of mine the other day.

I was with one millionaire friend of mine the other day. He had gone through Facebook and found me. He then realized that I have more than 17k followers so he was making jokes about me being a celebrity we were all laughing.

He owns a shopping centre and two buildings in the CBD yet doesn't even drive one sport car and wear expensive brands.

What I realized is that there so many rich people with money that we don't even know off.

Then there people who haven't made it yet but we see them all over the media.
For axample I watched the last Skinny Sbu interview when he was talking about his struggle.

That he was everywhere on Forbes magazine,CNBC e.t.c yet he was on R800k debt.
They made him a celebrity not knowing his financials that now put him under pressure. He wasn't happy about selling his car because he was thinking what is the whole country going to say if they see me in a taxi.

My point here is my millionaire friends are under no pressure. They have money but still they don't have pressure they not maintaining any image they just acquiring more assets. Even if they sell their cars and houses at some point to save their businesses no one will notice. That's the unfair advantage these guys have.

But us the up and coming entrepreneurs they turn us in to celebrities before we even make it. While we still building up we have this big image to maintain all eyes on us.
Even when we identify great opportunities we can't sell our cars and take taxis because we worried about what people will think.

Let me tell you something. They got us now. The large corporations got us. We are not a threat to them anymore because we are more focused on materialism and becoming famous then we are focused on making our own cars, banks etc.

Black excellence is not materialism. Its building brands creating jobs. Its us becoming producers not consumers all the time.

Let's wake it's good to be popular and add value to other people's lives like all revolutionaries of the past. But don't put yourself under pressure.

Don't put yourself in a situation where you have to maintain a specific lifestyle.
