In this explosive conversation, James Hill, founder of Black Millionaires, breaks down the real rules of the game that most people are too scared to say out loud.

From the cold truth that you’re not handsome after 30, you’re either broke or rich, to why hard work alone won’t save you, James delivers raw, unfiltered insight on manhood, power, and money in 2025.

We get into:

- Why Black media is “cooked” and controlled

- The myth of hustle culture and what really builds wealth

- How young Black talent is ignored until it’s damaged

- The blueprint for monetizing a media company

- What it means to maintain masculinity while navigating modern business and brand culture

- Why helping the wrong people can cost you your future

This isn’t motivation, it’s a masterclass. If you're a builder, a thinker, or a man trying to elevate in silence... this one’s for you.

At 25, Darius built a thriving home decor brand through dropshipping, pulling in over $40K/month from his laptop. But in the middle of burnout, he trusted an older “mentor” who offered to help him scale. What started as a partnership turned into betrayal. One contract. One signature. And he lost everything, his brand, his revenue, even his slogan.

In this episode, Xavier exposes how paperwork, pressure, and misplaced trust can destroy a business.

We unpack the red flags, the lessons, and the painful truth: being the creator doesn’t mean you’re the owner.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed in business… this is your warning, and your blueprint to move smarter.

This is the first episode of my new series, Money, Mistakes & Secrets, where I share real stories about wealth, betrayal, and the high price of bad decisions.

In this episode, we follow a successful entrepreneur who built a multi-million dollar portfolio and believed love didn’t need legal protection. No prenup. No backup plan.

But when betrayal came wrapped in silence and court papers, it nearly cost him everything.

This story isn't just about relationships, it's about risk management, legacy protection, and the financial devastation that can follow emotional decisions.
