  • What your bank account says about your personality

    Money is a reflection of who we are and how we view the world. It can reveal our values, our priorities, and our level of self-control. Money can even show our personality traits. For example, someone who is an overspender may have an impulsive personality, while someone who is more frugal may be more cautious and conservative.


    Overspending is a common personality trait that can be seen in how someone handles their money. People who are prone to overspending may not be able to resist the temptation of buying something they don’t need or can’t afford. This can lead to financial trouble and the inability to save for the future.

    On the other hand, people who are not investing enough may be more risk-averse and may be reluctant to put their money into investments or other financial instruments. They may not be comfortable with the idea of taking on a certain amount of risk in order to potentially gain a higher return.

    No matter what your personality type is, it’s important to be mindful of your spending and investing habits. A good way to start is to create a budget and stick to it. This can help you keep track of your expenses and make sure you’re not overspending. It’s also important to make sure you’re investing enough for your future. Investing in stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments can help you build wealth over time.

    If you’re looking for more information about money and finance, you can check out BoyceWatkins.com. This website offers a wealth of information about personal finance, investing, and other financial topics. Whether you’re an overspender or a more conservative investor, BoyceWatkins.com can help you make the most of your money and achieve your financial goals.

  • Tory Lanez, Megan Thee Stallion and rappers who are consistently getting shot

    In a courtroom that turned chaotic after a trial that seethed with tension, a Los Angeles jury on Friday found rapper Tory Lanez guilty of three felonies in the 2020 shooting of hip-hop star Megan Thee Stallion. The attack left her wounded with bullet fragments in her feet and Lanez’ conviction could send him to prison for more than 20 years.

    Lanez, who was put in handcuffs and led to jail while wearing a powder pink coat with matching pants, showed no visible reaction as the verdict was read.

    But moments later, after the jury was escorted out, his father, Sonstar Peterson, leapt up and shouted “This wicked system stands judged before God almighty!” as deputies closed in on him.

    Peterson then pointed to the two prosecutors and yelled “You two are evil, wicked people. You know exactly what you did.”

    With considerable effort, deputies wrestled him from the courtroom, where he shouted in the hallway.

  • Adidas is stuck with $530M worth of Yeezys that they can't get rid of

    According to Bloomberg, the Adidas deal with Kanye West has left the company with over half a billion dollars worth of sneakers that they don't know how to sell.    This is due to the fact that Adidas dropped West after he made a series of antisemitic remarks.    The relationship between Kanye West and adidas began in 2013. At the time, Kanye had just ended his partnership with Nike and was looking for a new partner to help him create his own line of shoes. After months of negotiations, Kanye and adidas finally announced their partnership in November 2013.  Since then, the partnership between Kanye and adidas has grown exponentially. Kanye has released several successful shoes with adidas, including the Yeezy Boost 350, the Yeezy Boost 750, and the Yeezy Boost 950. In addition to these shoes, Kanye has also designed clothing and accessories for adidas, including a range of hoodies, t-shirts, and hats.  In 2018, Kanye and adidas announced the launch of their new Yeezy brand. The Yeezy brand is a line of shoes, apparel, and accessories designed by Kanye and inspired by his own personal style. The brand has been a huge success, with the Yeezy Boost 350 becoming one of the most popular shoes of the year.  Kanye and adidas have also collaborated on several high-profile projects, including the Yeezy Season fashion shows and the adidas + Kanye West pop-up stores. These projects have allowed Kanye to further his creative vision and have helped adidas reach a wider audience.  The partnership between Kanye West and adidas has been a success for both sides. Kanye has been able to create a successful line of shoes and apparel, while adidas has been able to reach a new audience and expand its reach.  I want to talk about Kanye West, #Adidas and some of the other things I'm noticing about this peculiar business relationship.  It's unfortunate that it ended, because this could have been very good for the black community.   Dr Boyce Watkins is a Finance PhD, Black Wealth specialist and author of the book, "The 10 Commandments of Black Economic Power."  You can learn more by visiting http://BoyceWatkins.com
