Anyone here ever think about moving to the hood for a better life? These people apparently did

Some people just aren't built for "the hood".

They're either too perceptive, too strong, too smart, or too wealthy.

Some are a combination of all.

The hood wont accept these types of people, and let them live comfortably.

Someone would have to get hurt really bad, for someone to be good in the hood.

They inherited a house in Chicago. Obviously not having a mortgage can go a long way as far as using that $ to pay off other debts. This scenario worked for them, but this would be a definite anomaly if 99 other people tried the same thing w/ their families. Their family structure is what worked in their favor.

What about it ?

N hustling backwards is struggling to pay for a place you can't afford or continuing to struggle if you have other options to make your situation better for the future
 
Technically speaking its very possible.

Living in the hood, doesnt necessarily mean getting robbed or shot at.

My grandparents live in the hood and can sleep with their doors unlocked.

They got a house paid for in full and lived there rent free while paying off their debts..

I mean, would anyone choose to do this?

Would you and your family choose to live debt free in terrible conditions? Is it worth it?

i like the piece of mind that a good neighborhood has not my lady too scared to go grocery shopping after 9.
 
don't see the big deal if you don't have kids, but this doesn't seem like a good idea with youngsters...
 
Lived in/near the hood my whole life. Just moved out and got my own spot on the opposite side of the city in a more affluent area.

Nal im never going back.
 

If you've ever lived in the hood you would know exactly what I mean. But to answer your question, no, the idea of moving to the hood for a better life is an oxymoron.
 
What you mean how so ? Who wants to be in the hood if they can afford to not live in the hood.

Rats, roaches, people getting killed outside the complex , water getting cut off everyday because the migos were stealing copper,

car break ins, etc.

I make too much money to deal with that. I'll never go cheap on my living situation again.
