yeah i had a fine ass white girl (Big ass and thick thighs) fuck me. At first it was suppose to be just topless a massage because she needed the money(her did not know about that), but i started calling her and asking her if she needed anything. Her man could not pay the bills and was all ways broke. Her man actually got a hit record on the radio right now. They still could not pay the bills. she started out just wanting to do topless massage. she was suppose to meet me once a week for the massage, But she was a fine ass white girl (Big ass thick Thighs). I wanted that. So i started calling her and telling and asking her how was the bills? she told me that everything was late. So i told her ” I got you”. she been with this dude for some years. she love the shit out of this dude. she had not fucked another man in over 5 years since she been with him. Eventually, She gave me the pussy. all that happen because of the “RECESSION” AND REMEMBER- HER MAN HAS A HIT RECORD ON THE RADIO RIGHT NOW!!!
AND THEY ARE STILL BROKE. MOST RAPPERS ARE NOT RICH RAPPERS.
@Fatihah I’m from Miami. I never heard of the word RECESSION before.
Oh yeah, I need to correct something, the part where I said my first job was at 15 in the half, my sister was 15 in the half when she first started Toco Hell. She was the first one to have a job than me, I was 17 years old when I had my first job. I quit working at toco Hell at the age 18 years old. So yeah, working at a fast food place is hard and you don’t get paid good at all for it. I need a job that would pay me good, but it’s impossible without a degree or a good record.
@AnitaLTL My major is Art General. I been in college for 2 years now and I still not getting anywhere. I can’t get a job out here! I can’t even get a job at school either!
Although its ironic as fuck Im doing better in the recession than i was when we wasnt in one Ball Til You Fall Baby shit hella cheap. I love it no complaints over here! @Tony Antoine you a fool! The recession is a muthafucka!
Well, I graduated in May and have yet to find a job. Just about any job I search for requires experience that I do not have. And the job I interviewed for back in January (and was probably a lock to get) ended up going on a hiring freeze and it will not be lifted until next month (prayerfully). Thus, I had to take out a loan to be able to live the rest of the year. I basically stay home because I cannot afford to go outside. August was my personal hell because I literally had no money.
As for others, I know a few other unemployed people. I’m going to stop here because this topic is affecting me on a daily basis (and more than just too close to home).
this wack azz recession is slowing down the job searching WAY too much!! I’ve been trying to escape the dungeon (my job) for months and have yet to get any real prospects cause everyone is on a hiring freeze. I’m extra pissy the Republicans point the finger at every lil thing Prez Obama does when they didn’t have ish to say when Bush was piling up the BS that led to this damn recession!?!!
I’ll be glad when it’s over cause I needa get up outta the dungeon which by the way is child support ASAP, folks be in court one second away from the “who gon check me boo” head tilt everyday!!
I’m slow motion sometimes. Wasn’t nothing juicy just a general answer, lol.
((((((MS. KAY-J))))))) and others. I’m so sorry to hear about your situations. I’m hoping it will get better for you all soon.
This is why I tell people to pay attention to the world at large. Recessions are normal, we went through one in the 80′s, but for some reason this one seems to be one that is going to change this generation forever. Kind of like the Great Depression. I suppose thats a good thing, but the way it came about damn sure wasn’t. I saw it coming well before it started, with banks giving out home loans to just about anyone. Anyone with half a brain new it could not be sustained. I just urge all of you to begin paying attention to what’s going on here in America and around the world. Pay attention to the politicians who are shaping the policies that affect us and are taking campaign contributions from lobbyists who are only concerned with their bottomline. Let’s remember that Bush came into office with a almost $500 BILLION surplus and left us with a $1.3 TRILLION deficit! Get as involved and as angry as those who are protesting against President Obama’s proposed policies. Because when it’s all said and done we are going to be sitting around looking like WTF happened? AGAIN. And we won’t have anyone to blame but ourselves.
Some of us will be alright because we know how to survive, no matter what the odds are. And some of us won’t because we sit back waiting for things to happen FOR us or TO us. Do all that you can to make it. Just try not to degrade yourself or hurt anyone else.
I’ll get off of my soapbox now, I’m just a little upset by what I see going on around me and it seems as though many aren’t paying attention.
Oh, and please be aware of the 300+ death threats that our President gets on a daily basis, more than any other President in history. Not to mention people showing up at his rallies with guns. He is sacrificing more than we could ever know. So do what you can to support him.
WELL i havent had any problems paying my bills yet but i never thought the recession would affect my job..i work in the healthcare industry and our census is low…PPl are cancelling elective surgeries because of the recession and some ppl r even taking care of their loved ones at home..I’m a therapist and in my dept they had overhired last year and they r trying to avoid layoffs..we have all been taking vacation days here and there to try to stave off the layoffs for some of our coworkers. Its last one hired first one fired so i know i’m not on the list , i’ve been there 12 years but i still feel sorry if someone else was laid off..What the recession is doing for me is not allowing me all the wants i have..my needs r covered..but i consider myself blessed i know ppl who have it wayyyy worse..I hope its over soon…I dont know anyone doing really crazy stuff personally but i do know ppl are drawing their belts tighter..
It kinda affected me cuz I had $$$, but as soon as the recession hit I became like a bank 2 some of my family members and they’re being extra slow about paying that shit back.
I’ve seen people do things for money, not really abnormal but now all of a sudden it’s more blatantly obvious…..this fool came into my job to cash his check, switched bills & then tried to tell me that I shorted him LOL I was like “You need to learn how to count right PIMP” then he wanted to keep arguing with me & I was havin NONE OF IT. Then he started arguing with the manager & that idiot finally caved and gave him the money because he was sick of arguing SMDH. I gave that fool the Imma fuck ur ass up look as he was leaving and needless to say 10 minutes later he came back in talking about he made a mistake & gave the $ back…………..mistake my ASS, fool realized that I might just be crazy enough to cut him LOL
man i’ve been in a damn recession all my life!!!! i’m still in the hood! Growing ur told go to school, get a good education and the world is yours . Well i did just that even got a master’s degree and now i can’t find a damn job (that will at least pay master’s degree level) im stuck working anywhere and doing anything just to pay student loans for the education that was supposed to bring so much!!!! Go Figure! I know peps doing whatever and whoever just to get the bills paid.
I HAVE A QUESTION I WAS WATCHING REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ATLANTA AND SHERAE SAID SHE WAS INDEPENDENT.
NOW MY QUESTION IS, IF YOUR MAIN SOURCE OF INCOME IS ALIMONY PAYMENTS ARE YOU CONSIDERED INDEPENDENT
@MsKay- Im prayin’ 4 u and your family.,I know that has to be hard
@seanpsalms-we missed you fam.,welcome back homie
@Minnie-AGREED.,I get soooo upset with how they are treating out president.,It HORRIBLE!!
@bootyinyoface-LMFAO.,.,thats all I can do
At the end of the day.,you gotta do watcha gotta do by any means necessary to put food on the table and have a roof over your head!! No judgement passed at all. Its hard out here!!
Hell yeah. down here some people just started making some fake McDonalds and TGI Fridays coupons. Niggas tryna eat boy! literally
THE RECESSION IS CRAZY MY HUSBAND RAN AWAY FROM HOME BECAUSE HE LOST HIS JOB AND I HAD TO TAKE CARE OF US AND OUR KIDS. HIM NOT WORKING FORCED ME TO WORK LIKE 12 TO 16 HOUR DAYS TO KEEP UP WITH OUR LIFESTYLE. BUT I’M GLAD HE’S GONE THO I’M BACK TO LIVING IT UP! LET THEM OTHER BITCHES TAKE CARE OF HIS GROWN ASS!
luckily, i hedged myself from the recession and worked my butt off at university and got a first class degree and a starting salary of $60k. I sacrificed fun for all my uni years for the best degree class. I would really recommend it – even if you don’t have a good time – you are set.
NOPE THE RECESSION HASN’T AFFECTED ME PERSONALLY…I’M STILL GETTING PAID AND ENJOYING LIFE THANK GOD
PERSONALLY I DON’T KNOW ANYONE DOING SOMETHING STRANGE FOR ALITTLE CHANGE…NOPE
The recession is a big deal and it’s hit everyone in some type of way. I’ve always lived paycheck to paycheck, but now I know how to cut down on wants and only get the needs. I was blessed to be able to purchase my home (big ups to Habitat) with a mortage that helped me save 200 from when i was renting. I was also able to start back school, (big ups OBAMA for that money) and still able to maintain all bills. I’m also going to have a roommate to help split the bills so that we both can have that extra money in the bank.
This too shall pass to everyone who is struggling right now. Continue to fall on those knees and pray. God has brought us all out of things much worse than this.
Oh yeah JD.. Im turning 30 in Jan. and me and my bestie are tryin to go to VEGAS to celebrate. Keep us posted so I be be in the building. LTL
*waving*
Hi Mr. BMCox
fasho recession has stricken a lot of people in the world today, have hit me and some close to me. Then others to me haven’t been touch, u believe that it matters what means u make money for recession to hurt u, the street game is never on a decline but the job market is shoot to shit, some in the music world has been affected well the top dogs haven’t so it matters what stream yur money flow from..
damn @JRIA that nigga lame as hell, but be glad he gone so you and your kids will be safe from catching his bitchassness!!
yes the recession have affected me, i cant travel as i want to again. And no i dont know any1 who is doing anything 4 money.
They fired my old boss at work… This chick is fine ass hell. She didn’t even see it coming and was not prepared at all. I had been trying to talk to her for a min but she always turned me down. Now 5 months later when they are getting ready to stop paying her and this trick is trying to get me to sale BODY MAGIC under her!!!!! LOL I’m like I’m not getting in no pyramid… Fine as she is, Body Magic won’t be the only thing she is going to be selling!!! LMAO!!
I might buy……LOL
It’s made me a bit paranoid… I work for the school district in Los Angeles and didn’t get cut the first time around but heard they’re sending out another batch of pink slips so my job might be in jeopardy… Financially it really hasn’t effected me too much…I was still able to go to London for the summer…I guess I’ve been grinding more just to have something to put away just in case… I’m blessed…things could be worse… I do have a uncle that was very high up at his job and was forced to take a vacation because he never does and when he returned they forced him into retirement
he wasn’t ready to stop working.
I have three degrees; been “laid off” since our country went to war after 9/11; substitute teaching to survive and can’t even get a temp job ’cause I am overqualified for everything; singing on the side trying to win meals and money so we can eat and can’t qualify for food stamps; been to the food banks, relying on family support, and unemployment checks; family is struggling big time and we sold the house and are renting now, thankfully; brother got in Army to survive and support his family; people have been out of jobs longer than people realize or care to admit; it has only recently hit everyone else
We just basically cut back on everything; no cable, no Internet, no phones–jus the necessities. I get my hair done every 3-4 months instead of every week. It is hard gong from thousands of dollars a month to 480 a month.
It’s alright though. Hard times have made me stronger and even more faithful to God; I know what is most important to me and it is not the finer things in life. It’s all about God, family, and our overall well-being.
you know i really stop replying on this site because i think my response never get read but here goes. i live in Detroit as you know its the motor city. so in this recession we are catching hell! ain’t nobody making no money. when the united states catches a cold Detroit gets funking swine flu! i worked in the auto industry of 17 yrs making damn good money. living the American dream but still every year that i work there i never allowed myself to get comfortable. there was always layoffs,callbacks, retooling and shit that kept you worry how long you would be there. well my number was up last year. i was asked to take the buyout and i did just that. i didn’t want to relocate somewhere else i would have lost all mt time. don’t feel sorry for me a got a nice package and my unemployment. my house and car are paid for. now as for what other people are doing in this recession, you name it they are doing it.ppl got to eat and they gone eat. that is my i hate to see the waste that goes on. poor ppl are not eating they are taking crumbs from each other and killing over it! its sad!
whew where do i start?I..I was so use to being able to go out and buy things for my household without thinking twice about it,but ever since my husband got laid off from his job i had to learn over night how to budget our money …Not saying we had it like that but we wasn’t hurting for money but dammit we are now(smh) living pay check to pay check with three kids,rent,bills,school loans, insurance ect.. is alot to deal with..But we’ve managed to make it this far it’s almost been 1yr since he’s been off work and i always say to myself it could be worse..But even though our money isn’t the same we make sure to take our kids out to have a good time..I personally think that this has brought my family alot closer..
It’s strange how one minute you see all of these artist getting on their videos talkin about how much they got and how the do it. Everybody listens. That’s right! even your government. My black people listen to it. You see how long it’s taking the health care situation. This should be settled by now. We are all americans so anything like a reform to health care should benefit every one Damn! we are the same species! We can’t even learn from our own alien movies. Preserve us! Naw there some who don’t want that. That’s why we are in this ordeal instead of keeping them guessing we are just telling them I got this I got that. They are on the other hand figuring out a way to give you less because of it. There is no recession! A lot of these companies pulled out because they wanted to in the first place. A lot of them got while the getting was good and found that near the end of the Bush term that they were in some shit.
It extended from the real estate industry to the automotive industry. I think part of this recession is an attack on the music industry. The beauty of it is it just trickled down. Stop braggin about what you got. There are too many out here doing that and it’s affecting the ones who don’t have much. It makes it harder on them in the long run. Stop exploiting. You are the bearers of the microphone. That’s power! So when you speak realize they lisen too. Oh yeah our government has a lot of people who still believe in the old way.
LMAO @ ALL THESE GRIPPING ASS COMMENTS HOPING THAT IT WILL SINGLE U OUT AND JD WILL WANNA BE YA FRIEND!! HOW ABOUT HE TELL US WHAT TYPE OF SHIT HE’S SEEN HOES DO, JUST TO GET AROUND HIM AND HIS BOYS!!! WE PAY HIS ASS TO ENTERTAIN US BY BUYING HIS SHIT!! SO WHY ARE WE ENTERTAINING HIS ASS AND THE OTHER 6 OCEANS, AND THEY DONT GIVE US NOTHING EVER!! DAMN!!

Nah the recession hasn’t affected me personally nor my fam we still got jobs …. still buy what we want when we want…. Haven’t seen anyone doing anything strange for a piece of change either – Ayanna a Texas lifer/Ocean’s chick
It hasn’t affected me. I am in a supervisory capacity in the K-12 education field. My hubby is in the oil & gas business, and they seem to be laying off every other month. Everyone needs to get on their knees and pray for our country.
Well I still have a job but I’m about to do what others will call stupid and step out on a faith and move to the Atlanta area soon. Seeing as though we’ve been in a recession since ’05 but most ppl are now feeling the effects of it, I was straight then and i’m straight now. I don’t have much but I don’t want for anything either. My faith in God is what is keeping me right now. With HIm I won’t be without. So no matter if I have a job or not I will be okay. I can say that with confidence because I’ve been there.
In 05 I moved in with my sister who was going to school, she didn’t have a job and niether did I. She had one child at the time and was pregnant with her second. She didn’t recieve child support for my niece. So there was like no income coming into the hosue other than a one thousand dollar school check she got from the military but that only covered bare necessaties if that. There were times where we didn’t have rent or light bill money but we never got put out and the lights were never off. GOD made a way for us then and I know HE’LL continue to do so.
I’m not even gonna lie, things got really rough for me and i was going to donate some blood plasma for some money. I went as far as calling and making an appointment. But on the day of my appointment i didn’t have any gas to get there. Needless to say, things got better and i didn’t have to give away any plasma. I always started filling out tons of surveys online so i could earn the cash.
