It's funny, because I think that our culture celebrates the "thugs." All girls hear today is how the need a soulja, a thug, etc. No one has made a song called "I Need a Bank Manager." (Or somthing like that.) I speak from experience, too. I used to think that I loved me a thug. But one day I realized that we had no future. Literally. No savings, no IRA, no 401k.... my thug didn't even have a resume. But I was young and all I saw and heard was how we love and want thugs. I thought it was cute. Then I grew up. Not all of us do.
