Move to America. Make money. Invest in Africa.

[@nasescobar6004]

Amen

[@OnYourSquare]

I lived in Shenzhen, China for 8 months and that is their strategy. Make money there, invest it in Africa. Reason being the tech boom has raised wages of skilled labor in China. So a Chinese company will farm out manufacturing work to Africa because there is no minimum wage there, making it is cheaper to produce in Africa. Africa has become China's China. And you'll continually see more and more investment in infrastructure from Chinese backers. Akons billion dollar backing to connect isolated villages with electricity and internet is living proof.

Akon is a legend he knows where the future is!!. #Bitcoin the money of the future!! 🎉😎

[@xlnsmedia9329]

definitely. BTC all the way! I wish Akon could talk more about the possibiilites of the technology of BTC though. It clicked for me a couple of days ago, and honestly the price talk is boring compared to the tech. Imagine anyone being able to open up a bank in a third-world country (or any country for that sake), buying or sending whatever, whenever without a third-party-authority to question or censor the purchase or transfer. BTC is truly (for those who need to understand the tech in lay-man's terms); the Internet version of money; whereas book publishers and media/publishers before the Internet was a thing, is akin to paper money today; it is controlled, owned by different corporations, can be censored if needed. BTC on the other hand, just like the Internet as a whole is open, censorship resistance, does not belong to any country, hack-resistant and neutral. Investing in this is a no-brainer.

[@CRYPTOCASH305]

@Real boxing Fan1 Hehe ok buddy!! is what they said in the past about the Internet or Facebook etc. Whenever something extraordinary is created, people always talk about having no future. Bitcoin is already 10 years old and still strong. Expensive? Fine this technology has or will have the same great value as any company today. Remember that Bitcoin is like a global company like Apple, Amazon, Facebook. you know why? Because people are creating it. Not the Haters!! $183,92 Billion Market Cap. and Counting!! Lmao!! 😂😂

Akon should talk to Jessica O. Matthews from NY/Nigeria who makes soccer balls, bikes and other things that create energy and then powers the light at home.

[@muktadirkhan8576]

Akon is a legend and a very smart businessman.

“I’d rather own 2% of me from a billion percent of me then to own 100% of me worth nothing” - Akon (BARS)

[@ThaGreat96]

Idk.. Akon lost me on this one. Doesn't this mean that someone would own that other 98% of what should/could be his. So out of that billion, his 2% would be only 20M meaning someone has 980M off his shit lol. Then what if its less than a billion, say 100M...his 2% puts him at just 2M n someone has the other 98M. Don't seem like a fair deal to me. In one of Nips old songs, he said "There ain't no playin with me, I got a 80/20, that means my shit sell any they gon pay me plenty" Now imagine how much more of yours u could have with that. Ijs

10:10 Sounds like what my Grams used to say before she passed. "If you help a man, he will get to his destination, if you do not, he will still get there. Only difference is the time it would take him to get there"

[@felicious8015]

I agree. Seemed like Envy rushed him out of there. Smh

[@ricagoodvibes]

The interview is based on the guest's time, maybe he only had 30 mins

[@AMPFIELDVISION]

mansa musa well Charlemagne wasn’t there, that would’ve accounted for an additional 20 mins or so

He has to get back to his chinese masters

[@zawardo7264]

Akon! Just imagine having him as a mentor! I'm getting my AKOIN

[@JustinBlazzzee]

Jessica Bradley Bad idea. You’d be much better off taking his example and learning from his hustle and bigger picture thinking. But whatever you do, PLEASE, don’t buy Akoin.

[@wikiorg379]

JustinBlazzzee Why?

[@zawardo7264]

@Wellrounded13 Exactly! I like the way you think! 🤩

[@JustinBlazzzee]

Wellrounded13 And you are basing this off of what? Probably just your personal liking for Akon. There are tons of crypto out there and all but a few have failed miserably. There is no regulation yet in the industry. Go ask any financial advisor or accountant and see what they say. Sure, there’s a 2% chance that you’ll 10x your money on Akoin. But there’s a 98% chance you take a loss. Your choice. Do your research and don’t buy something just because you like him. Not to mention, he’s a hustler and he wants you to buy Akoin so HIS interest in the crypto increases and he makes money. It’s almost a pump and dump that he’s trying to pull on you guys. But hey, what do I know...

[@iprofox3758]

JustinBlazzzee You cant call it a pump and dump when that hasnt happened so far. Your other points are valid.

[@sydneyc17]
