If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?
If I had a million dollars to give away, I’d start with my four kids. I’d take half and split it between them — not just as a gift, but as an investment in their future. I want them to have the tools, wisdom, and opportunities to build something meaningful, something lasting.
Next, I’d pour into The Descendants of Kings Foundation, because it represents everything I stand for — resilience, rebuilding, and restoring hope in those who’ve faced life’s hardest battles.
And with what’s left, I’d invest in an entrepreneur with real potential — someone who just needs a break to grow, to hire, and to help others find work. Because when you empower one person with purpose, you don’t just change their life… you strengthen the entire community.

- Hustle Is an Art FormThe mind is a beautiful, unpredictable space filled with compartments waiting to be discovered.
