Depends on where you are going and why. Short trip on the right day can cost less than gas and take the same amount of time as driving.

[@mingonmajorlance1779]

Never judge another person I am a insurance agent and unfortunately there are thousands of my people dont have life insurance renters insurance car insurance or homeowners insurance in urban communities people just aren't taught the importance of having insurance and I've been in a fire and yes what he is saying is true red cross is an amazing resource when rebuilding but in California they can only do so much it's not my place to judge anyone's life so my job is to pray that he gets his life back on track and rebuild be blessed my brother.

[@BigTinKc]

Unless he paid cash for a 2.5 million dollar home it is not up to him to have insurance or not. Do you honestly believe that a lender would not require insurance on a home that they own legally until tou pay it off? The mortgage company requires home owners insurance. If you do not get insured they will place minimal insurance and charge you for it. I own several properties and the ones that carry notes HAVE to have insurance. I just had squatters burn down a property but I paid cash for that property and did not have insurance because it was vacant.

[@mingonmajorlance1779]

Agreed but correct me if I am wrong when a finance company has what is called an insurable interest weather it be a home or a vehicle you are correct they insure their interest however once there is a loss and it's time to collect if you were let's say the registered owner you dont get the money nor a replacement if they had to insure the item in question you as the consumer loose you allowed your insurance to lapse you are screwed but are correct the mortgage or finance will most definatly recoup their loss I'm not here to go back and forth ,and I am not a property & casualty agent I am a life and health agent verifiable at the state of California department of insurance . When we took our boards we did have have two days that all prospective new agent were in class together so I know a little about insurance on the PC side lol but my initial point everyone is so easy and quick to judge others and their interpretations of their story none of us are perfect and we see and perceive things differently so I'm just saying we weren't there it's not our story to tell I'm just saying sorry I'm typing with knuckles on a tiny screen lol

@@mingonmajorlance1779 gotcha

He describes his father. Sounds like an amazing person.

[@AbenaMcKenzieSoapiphany]

I remember the tragic story of the toddler getting HIV from her uncle in Tx, horrible story. It was the Doctors who saved that child, they were persistent with the police to use the DNA of the viral infection to get the perpetrator - David Richard Wilson, and eventually it led to another victim of his girlfriend's young daughter. This story was such a shame, and hurtful to the heart of what that baby girl endured. I've always wondered what relief she could live out, I hope her such success, and happiness in the life. Nobody deserves it more. Bless you and your Baby girl.

[@ladin425]

Tragic! No one deserves to through that. I Hope that young girl can go through life without ever knowing what happened to her. There is no way someone can enjoy life knowing they've endured that. I think TJ has to understand that and let his daughter live her life without knowing him.

[@AbenaMcKenzieSoapiphany]

@@ladin425 Well the mind of Trauma can block out or remember specific details. But in the Baby Girls case, she has to take Virus Drugs that do have side effects for the rest of her life. In this case, it was the Mother who took the Child to Tx to her own Brother that sexually assaulted the baby. It's the Mom who left the child there, then lied and said the Baby was born Positive. But Dad TJ gave the evidence the Police needed to get the Pervert. The Mom tried to cover for her Pervert Brother. 😱

[@jamescapb3795]

Bena Bang sometimes I comment on here wishing the person in the video would check up just to see what people are saying about him/ his situation in the comments and see mine. There’s this website called heavenandherbs.com my grandmother has been using it for years, if I’m not mistaking there’s herbs on there for stds and virus’ of all sorts. The fda however doesn’t acknowledge the use of herbs as medicine so it’s “incurable”. God performs miracles all the time but we have to allow it. I looked that dude up on google and that dude has demons he was weak enough to give in to all of that evil and in turn turned into a monster and he’s gonna have to answer to god for that. May this man and his daughter find peace we should pray for them I bet it would make god proud.

I mean yes and no. He did mention the story about the guy jumping out the window and how that fucked him up bad. If he didn't have any empathy he wouldn't have been jarred like that

Not blaming him for the sexual assault but things like this are more likely to happen when u have random kids all over the place and are not in your children's lives. You should be more responsible for your seed. If u plant that seed u need to cultivate it...not just leave it on its own. This is a sad tragic terrible story

[@Shanie.ColeAesthetics]

I never say this with these interviews but...... I am disgusted. He blames everyone else. He relied on everyone to help him and then has the nerve to bring up their flaws like he is a good catch. Both accomplishments, "big house" and "car" was inherited. It saddens me that he sits and talks about his childs mom but obviously had nothing to offer his kids. He is equally responsible for what has happened to the 15 children he has.

It's somehow every woman in his life's fault for why his kids aren't well taken care of. If they're such "unfit" mothers, why are they the primary parent? Why did he not step up to be a consistent, positive force in his kids' lives? See Misogyny got dudes in such a deep state of denial, always blaming and shaming women at every conceivable opportunity, they can't bring themselves to acknowledge that they're the reason for their own, their baby moms and their kids' misfortune.

What does he gain? He gets to not feel like a scumbag for 45 minutes while he tells “his” story. His ego gets a little boost. He gets to remember only the good things about him and his life and how none of it was his fault. That’s what he gains.

Any parts of the interview dealing with his children, he's very comfortable blaming someone else. SO SAD the trauma those children had to endure

[@williamlietz7535]

A lot of the time he was talking about things that happened while he was living on Skid Row, Carolyn. What is he supposed to do, argue that Skid Row is a safer and more stable environment than literally any private residence? The man is destitute and last I checked kids have two parents. At some point those situations left his direct power and all he could do was watch. And yeah, maybe he should’ve saved the motel money for those years he lived in one. I was homeless in Chicago for three months, and once I started staying in motels it was really difficult to convince myself not to. It was significantly safer and more comfortable and for that day it was possible. I can’t fault him. Especially not after years on the street.

[@ashleyvia1180]

I have a hard time grasping how insurance wouldn't have played a roll into helping with the financial part of things. When he says things like he sold a car that should have gone for $40k-$50k for 1k makes me wonder how true his story is. I felt like possibly he created some of his struggles by the 15 kids and things like this. I'm not judging. Just stating my opinion. I have a problem with people who tell enormous stories that don't carry weight. Just keep it real. No need for the big tall tale stories. When you begin exaggerating things, it makes it soooo much more difficult to believe the other things that could possibly be true.

[@valjones2063]

when you're living on the streets and dealing with people from the streets this isn't too far from the truth. He probably wasn't going to respectable businesses asking them to buy his car. He may not have had the title or any of the original paperwork etc. He probably asking around the streets who would buy it. It's like when a drug addict steals a rolex and sells it for $75 just to score a hit. It happens way more often than you realize. Also 15 kids for a man in the black community is not a strange thing either. It is unfortunate but more normal than you think, especially back in the 70s, 80s and 90s. These things have never been a reality to you but they are very much real in this world.

I don't believe he was making 5-7K a week, in his, in home "recording studio". SMH...They really come up with "good" ones. 15 kids? SMDH...He didn't say how many different women. Well, at least he claims them...I know he can't be there financially and emotionally. The whole, "no man can learn how to be a man without a man", in the house thing...I don't necessarily agree with that, in every case either. He better learn how to be a man...all these weak fathers out here, can't teach them how to be a man.

[@LaRhondaTurner]

So "waymint"! 😂 Did he pull out the coconut oil to lather up a fresh tattoo after discussing being homeless, having his drug dealing money under cut by a "friend", having his mother ask him to go sell some drugs or something to get out of her house after living with her for a month, being $60k behind on child support for 15 kids, not being able to afford to go to Texas to see his newly adopted daughter, selling his $50k-$60k car for $1k, and a $2 million burnt down home with no insurance support? #lowkeyjudgmental

[@Boss_Man00]

I dunno, he actually makes it clear that the house was his dads, and his sister wanted to change it to a frat house, but he felt he was entitled to it since he took care of his father. That would explain why he didn’t have insurance. He didn’t buy the house, and didn’t have the money for insurance. The recording studio stuff, I dno about that. If his cousin binky was sending him high echelon clients, and always making sure he had work, why wouldn’t he help him get another studio going, or bring him in to work on his own studio. And a $50-$60K car for a fkn g. Wow. I wish I could get a deal like that. I dno if that’s believable.
