This is the story of how I got robbed, at gunpoint, in the City of Philadelphia! I was 20 or 21 years old at the time of the incident. I was living on the wrong side of the fence and went to make a pickup. I put myself in a bad situation and almost paid with my life. While being a street hustler, my main goal was to make a profit each day. This mindset put me in some very dangerous situations. As I went to make a pick-up, I was met with a man demanding my money and my shoes. I complied as he had a weapon in his hand. He told me to run and don’t look back. I did just that until out of his sight. Once I made it to my car, I was relieved. Though my money was gone, I was happy to be alive. I hope that others may learn from some of the mistakes that I’ve made. Share your thoughts in the comments.
Favorite Subject: Math
What was your favorite subject in school?
Math was my favorite subject while in school. Well, I’ll say basic Math. I’m pretty good with adding numbers in my head. While in elementary school, I was told that I was good in math. Math is probably the school subject that I use the most now. Share your thoughts in the comments.
Alive & Well, Hopefully
I would hope that I will be alive and well in three years. We all know that tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone. By the grace and mercy of the Most High God, my family and loved ones will also be alive and well. Having my right state of mind will make everything else easier. This includes working towards investing in retirement and paying off the house. I’m just going to keep this simple by appreciating life. Thanks for reading.
