As I continue building my current business and learning about new opportunities, why you should invest in your future today has come to my mind often.

Many entrepreneurs around the world are investing in our financial future. We know that depending on Social Security benefits, and in some cases, retirement plans, may not be the only way to earn a steady income in retirement. Investing has some benefits in alleviating the pain of not knowing if you’ll be able to afford it during retirement.

The Birth of The Nation Board

The Birth of a Nation

 

I challenge myself to never fall prey to loving money over the truth after seeing Nate Parker’s “The Birth of a Nation” be ripped to shreds by the people who control American cinema.
“The Birth of a Nation” is a nice movie date type of film. The films overall grade by me was meh at best. It had poor execution of a great story about Nat Turner’s uprising against slave masters in 1831. This story really needed more of a support of outside historical events to pull the idea together without increasing the length of the plot.

Case in point; 1831 means the Haitian revolution had already passed and this was in the antebellum south; surely the news of this would’ve been spoken by both slaves and slave masters around various plantations. Because Haitians helped Americans win back Savannah during the American Revolution, I’m sure some of our flavor and military know how was left in the area. Which as a result gives more reason why 30 or so years later, those Haitians were able to free themselves out of bondage over the French. (This needs a movie for itself but I’m not on that right now.)

Andre Berto and Floyd Mayweather during media day and weigh-in on September 11, 2015.

Andre Berto vs Floyd Mayweather on September 12 at MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada.

Time and time again, entertainers (sports/media/and etc) are tasked with the obligatory assignment of representing their neighborhood, state, country or race. As a fellow Haitian-American, I understand the reasoning behind making Andre Berto another candidate. However, no man or woman should be given that title because of the scrutiny that is bestowed upon you if you f%$k up. From Orenthal James “Juice” Simpson to Arnold Schwarzenegger, we all have witnessed that sometimes they do not live up to our praise and admiration. As a boxer, Andre Berto isn’t the greatest I have seen but overall his attitude is that of many boxers in the peak of their careers. Tonight, I want to see a complete fight and not waste a moment of my time wishing he got another chance.

To bring anyone up to speed about the boxer Andre Berto, here we go. He competed as an olympian representing the caribbean island of Haiti in 2004. His professional record currently stands at 33 fights; 30 wins; 23 wins by KO and 3 losses. From the fights I have seen, he should have a good chance of going 12 rounds in his fight with Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas tonight.  In my opinion, Andre Berto should be advised not to go hard early like he does in most of his fights because it will not work with Floyd.

In the end, win, lose, or draw I like both fighters and will not feel any more or less about Berto as a representation of what Haiti has to offer in boxers or entertainers for that matter. Make your family proud Andre Berto. “LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE”!
