Who does this sound like ?

Homeless for 3 years in the 80's, lived in a 70-something crap car, didn't get his big break until the 90's

Now has an estimated net worth of

$160,000,000

He's very entertaining and sharp dressed as are many successful black dudes, perfect timing with his facial expressions, quick with a witty remark, a very real guy

LL Cool J would be a decent guess but the guy I be talkin' bout is older than LLCJ, a pretty good brother as well, my guy isn't a rapper, more rooted in stand-up comedy.

That's the man !

His timing and facial expressions on FF are perfect, it's not easy to come up with the perfect response when somebody comes up with a ridiculously stupid response under pressure

I'd like to have dinner with that guy, he's an entertainer at heart that rose from absolutely nothing, I have a feeling he is very humble and a really good guy

I could be wrong, he might be a total

(__&__)-hole, but even if so , he markets himself well.

If I ever had that kind of money, I'd be extremely generous and philanthropic, after about 10-20 million to secure myself and loved ones for life, I'd be making charitable donations like crazy...after careful research

The animal ads get to me
Veterans would get a cut
I'm sick of that Alec kid in the wheelchair, not so much to Shriners
Local stuff
Point is if I got a hold of 500 million, over 90% of it would be redistributed at my discretion.

I don't even want a private jet or a mansion. I'm the product of parents that grew up in the Great Depression, their values are ingrained in me, I'll be the guy cutting open the tube of toothpaste to get that last bit, even if I have a billion dollars in my checking account, I'm an atheist, but waste is sinful to me

Cutting toothpaste to get last bit is hardcore. I have a feeling you have other things you do that most don’t. What else do you do? Do you eat the heels in bread? Count the toilet paper sheets you use? I caught an oprah episode years ago where the guy would monitor how much toilet paper his wife was using. Unbelievable.

I met Steve Harvey once in Plano, Tx where I worked at a Motorcycle Shop. I just said hey what’s up. He was buying a motorcycle back in 2006. He was laid back and seemed like a cool dude. At that time I’m pretty sure he just had a radio show.

Wow, just wow. Stupid posts like these are why I waste very little time on this board any more. But you go Doug with your idiotic and backhanded defense of the "Black" man. I'm so glad we're making it based on your standards.

Doug my man, I think you're selling them short. There are tons of successful African Americans in every walk of life

Dads raising their kids for starters, way underrated
Educators
Law Enforcement Officers
Attorneys
Neural Surgeons
Doctors
Nurses
Medical Professionals
Career Military Personnel
Business owners
Tradesmen
Pilots

They occupy every occupation known to mankind. The only thing holding them back are far too many fatherless homes, being raised to believe they're at a disadvantage and the politicians using them for their political gain

That is 1000% correct, Willie. It’s too bad many are too blind to see they are being used and brainwashed to feel victimized by their skin color. But I also happen to believe some do know they are being used and go along with it to take advantage of governments social programs.

Fixed it for you. I have seen these "medical professionals" in action. Most are only there because they are not white. It's true. Willie. You live in a nice community in Connecticut. You don''t necesarily see the products that come out.

Are we really supposed to believe Obama was a legit Harvard Law School guy? Please. There is a reason Elizabeth Warren tried to register as an Indian. Our society bends over backwards for these morons and of course they still fuck it up.

You're showing your true colors Vlad. I've interacted with African American medical professionals, their fine people and very good at what they do. Two in particular, are actually from Nigeria and I don't believe they've benefited from American politics.

Furthermore, and maybe even more importantly, their kids are following in their footsteps attending the best colleges at full pay
