If you’re no longer a student at Howard or even considering grad school, you should really find a way for your 30-something-year-old a** to do your own laundry.

Please, its

time.

You calculate everything in your head, check out your web banking app every now and then, and count on your fingers to figure out the rest, but yet don’t budget.

Do you seriously wonder why your finances aren’t where you want them to be?

We get that sometimes as an adult, you have breakups or set backs that force you back into your parent’s basement for a little while. But a grown man or

woman bounces back and bonces back within 6 months to a year.

Don’t overstay your welcome.

You’re  at dinner with a group of people that your cuz invited you to join, but you’re just sitting there twiddling your thumbs and scrolling through your Insta feed without

saying a word or contributing to the conversation.

Get it together, man. That’s not very adult of you.

The world is to blame for your woes. 

And no, you’re not 6, so it’s not in the least cute.

You pride yourself in your spontaneity, but it only gets you into deeper trouble.

Try planning ahead for a change, and things might start to look up.

We believe in following your dreams and living the life your heart is in, but there’s a difference between being a dream chaser and not facing reality. Are you even

talented at what you deem as a dream? Is that where your strengths lie? Or are you caught up in a façade?

If you’re over 30 with no back up

plan to the dreams that just ain’t working out, try getting something to keep you stable while you follow your dreams. You can do both--trust us on this.

You’re still hitting up McDonald’s every now and then, but mostly bar food and takeout from the wing spot around the corner.

You think this is a level up from

your Burger King days. SMH.

You don’t have your own crib, but you do have a clean a** Charger sitting in your grandma’s driveway with nice rims.

Priorities, priorities!

You justify sleeping in until 1 PM with the fact that you worked your part time job until 1 AM last night, and you don’t have to clock back in

until 4 PM. 

Tip: Wake up!!!! Get your hustle on.
