4 months ago on March 1, I remember being flat broke. I had $7 in my bank account and didn’t know where I was gonna find the money for my Shopify fees which were due on March 10.

I went on spring break on March 4 and figured I would sell some scrap metal or something to make it.
I got a call 2 days later to come to a dead lady’s house and rip up carpet so that they could sell the house.

I was gonna make $200. I was pumped because I’d have the money and replace my emergency stash
Come to find out that the lady couldn’t get up the stairs, so she slept on the first floor.

She couldn’t stop the dogs from going upstairs tho, and they had been crapping on the floor.

So the carpet was absolutely saturated in dog turds
So I had to do an absolutely disgusting job just to make my payment.

The very next day, the governor of Ohio placed the stay at home order.
Flash forward to May and I was out of cash again.

My shampoo was out of stock, no orders were coming in, and I had no money.

I had to stop advertising my store so that I wouldn’t have to restock.
That day I decided I was done being poor. I’ve busted my ass for the last two months to make it.

I have a decent bank account now, but I still remember when I had to rip up nasty dog shit carpet just to pay my bill.
Yesterday, I decided to award my progress by ordering this suit jacket and the matching white pants.

This isn’t just a reward, but a reminder of how far I’ve come and how far I still have to go
One of these days I’ll be posting big money numbers.

There will be two commas in my bank account, Mark my words.

Until then, I’ll keep tweeting about crocs and whatever comes to mind. But understand that even when I’m in the millions, the message won’t stop
Honor God. Respect those around you. Do right by your fellow man. Always put your family first.

One of these days I’ll earn my ego. But until then, I appreciate everyone who had my back in the process 🤝
