This chick is crazy. People are always saying she’s pushing the boundaries but really she is setting them. I’m not the biggest GaGa fan but how often do you see a music video aka movie? It’s well-made, GaGa ish, and definitely will be a hit because GaGa is gold right now. GaGa is a big hustler by the way, her videos are always packed with product placement.
What’s your take on the video?
*Video fixed. It’s going to keep on going down for sure though.

I’ve always wanted to add more aesthetics to this blog along with the information and insight I provide into my life. I’ve bought a decent camera off of eBay but Paypal is acting up and taking it’s sweet time to transfer the money. To be honest, I should have the camera in my hand right now taking cool pics to spice up the blog a little bit. I’ll finally be able to take my own pictures for the blog too, I hate using other peoples stuff! I’ve seen so many things I’d like to capture but haven’t had the chance because all I’ve got is my Blackberry camera and it just won’t do those objects justice, ya dig?
I really only post when I have something to say or share to help keep this blog devoid of the typical filler you see on similar blogs. I’m working on getting a job to further my hustle and mainly my social network within London. It’s been difficult and there have been some major setbacks since I’ve moved here but I got some good things planned for this year. I’ve made some wrong decisions and things are slowly starting to fall into place now. I’m putting myself in a successful state of mind because that’s the only road to success.

Some people don’t have the resources or the discipline to hustle online. No worries, because hustling in the real world can yield results faster and be just as satisfying in the long run. Of course street hustling ain’t easy because there is plenty of competition and even more hustlers trying to get one over on you. Either way, I’m going to lay down a basic hustle that I used to do (still do if it’s worthwhile) that can make you some extra paper on the side, while keeping your dignity intact.
The basis of this hustle is the fact that many people do not know the value of their own things.
This hustle is all about knowledge because if you don’t KNOW you can’t assess the value of whatever you’re trying to flip. It starts with choosing your niche. Let’s say we’re looking to sell DSLR Cameras for example. There are plenty of different models of DSLR’s available to you. You need to go and see which models are still worth buying and for what price they’re selling for. Check eBay – check Craigslist – check Gumtree (for my UK people) – local classifieds and more. This should give you an idea what they’re going for new and used.
The next thing you do is find a website which will let you know how to assess if the used product is still in good condition. In this case: A Guide To Buying A Used DSLR. This will give you an idea of what to look for, and what to avoid when buying used goods.
Now return to Craiglist and Gumtree etc for whatever product you’re looking for and begin buying and selling. A god way to get first pickings at new items is to make a thread about what you will buy and how much you’ll buy it for (works great especially if you’re hustling phones). You can normally sell things on eBay for more than you would in person, but then you have to factor in Paypal and Seller fees at the end of the month (they creep up on you). If you do this with a number of different products, and you keep your head in the game – you could make some good spare change in a short amount of time.
Obviously this is a short term hustle and not meant to have you set for life. Just keep in mind not everyone is honest – deal with people in daylight and public places, and make that paper. Hope this helped someone out there.

A.P.C. has a lot of nice clothes in their Spring 2010 collection that I wouldn’t mind having in my closet. Here’s a few that caught my eye…Stay classy my friends…
A little self improvement post to begin the month. I’ll start this post off with an example. Levi Maestro – he never really tells you what he does to enable him to travel the globe and do the things he’s dreamed of since he was younger. He doesn’t tell you the secret to life, or how to become a millionaire. He’s a guy with a camera showing you how he lives his everyday life and people absolutely love him for it. People are drawn to him because he seems like he has an infectious personality and they find inspiration through him.
It’s not something that you can put on – but it is something that you can build on over time. A great personality can mean the difference between getting the job, and not getting the job, making the deal, and not making the deal, advancing in life, or staying where you are. For a marketer/hustler It can make the difference between your products sitting on the shelf, or selling out before they’re even released.
As a hustler, your personality means a lot because you should be interacting with a lot of people to advance your game. I’m not going to tell you ways to improve your own personality – thats a personal mission. Ask others what they think about you, and see how you can improve and do what it takes. To me, a great personality is one of the keys to success. And remember, keys open doors.
Went out the other night with a friend of mine and I heard this song in the bathroom (by the way she’s going to be big I think) so I typed it in on Youtube next day and I found a great remix to the song. The dude really killed it and a friend of mine put me on some more of this Dubstep type music that I’ve never heard before. The artist pictured above is Jakwob (the guy responsible for the sick remix). The song in itself is good, I think it’ll be a hit but the remix really hits the spot. Check it out:

I’m one of those guys who has an appreciation for all music, so just because something is of a certain genre, I’m not going to block it out. I’m sure this genre is old to some people, but it’s brand new to me. Supposedly Dubstep originated in London so it’s fitting that I heard of it when I moved to London. I don’t know much about this genre so I’m not going to go on like I do but I’ve been enjoying the sounds for the past couple of days and thought I’d share it with y’all. If you know of any nice tracks hit me up I’d like to hear them. Hot song below, let me know what you think…

I take inspiration from so many different things it’s incredible. But one thing that I absolutely love is quality pictures and videos. To me it’s so amazing how can take something so simple, point a lens at it, and it comes out as a miniature. A friend of mine came down from Texas earlier on this year and he had just bought a camera, so we hit the streets of London just taking pictures, sightseeing, and acting stupid and having fun. I took that picture of the London Eye (giant ferris wheel) which I used in the post below. Quite proud of myself haha…
My friend did the modeling and I was the Jean-Pierre the photographer. He’s quite photogenic it seems. He took a few of me, one of them is that picture up top in the banner. Anyways..ever since he left it’s it was quite depressing since I couldn’t capture anything except through my phone, and for awhile my phone didn’t even have a camera. I’ll be getting a camera of my own soon and practicing with it a lot! Should be fun and add a little more eye candy (hopefully) to this blog. Here’s a few snaps I took that day…
