God Did It!!!

Image
Top 40 under 40 To be recognized as "Top 40" by the Grand Rapids Business Journal for the third time in four years is humbling. I am speechless. Just goes to show how faithful God is. How good God is and how he will use the least qualified to do the most. I am humbled. I am thankful.  As a young man who has always been overlooked, counted out, doubted and shunned, I truly believe God is simply making a statement. He is making a statement to the world. Daily I strive to be a living and walking Billboard for the Kingdom. He desired all along to make my name great. I simply desire to show the world how good God is. With each achievement, I will continue to give God the praise and the honor. Its not me…its Him. God Did It!!!

For 21 years Floyd has given the fans what they wanted to see but in all honestly, fans were hoping to see Floyd lose...something he has never done in his professional boxing career.

God has only made one thing perfect and that is Floyd Mayweathers boxing record. 50-0 For years Floyd has done charitable work in his community, provided opportunities for others and made the lives of many be

Challenges Chris Sain Jr. an athlete turned educator who happens to love the Lord, hip hop, investing and entrepreneurship was able to avoid death and prison but nevertheless still faced many challenges as a young, black man in America. The message he and so many of his peers received growing up was that they'd be dead or in jail by by 25. So driven by those words and the low expectations others placed on his life, Chris brought back both a bachelors and Masters degree to the hood by the age of 24. Chris spent his childhood in prisons, the Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) visiting his older brother and knew early on he would not end up their despite what the media and data suggested when it came to young, black inner-city kids.

Chamillionaire, former rapper turned tech giant With all due respect, Chamillionaire never has to record another song, make a rap or listen to music ever again for the rest of his life.  No, it’s not due to ringtones either. Can we say… SILICON VALLEY, CALIFORNIA?  Just the location, alone, you see what I’m getting at, right? Although Hakeem “Chamillionaire” Seriki has chosen to keep his “urban” look and rapper image, he’s gone “tech.” And trust, his money is longer than every rapper in the industry. Why??? Because of Investments !!! According to Chamillionaire, at his office in Silicon Valley, all kinds of people come through to talk to him — from “scientists, Ivy League graduates, people who have brilliant ideas and ‘people who are just winging it’,” says the known rapper. Where are they now… Sure, it has been years since Chamillionaire has had a hit song. Probably the last worldwide song people knew was “Ridin’.” Remember? Well, at one point, yes
