Heroes:

Let me make this simple . . . I am a fan of black economics, ingenuity & entrepreneurs - those who have made a way and set examples for us to do not only entertainment, but more. Even entrepreneurs who do entertainment have expanded their enterprises to do various forms of entreprenuering when they retire or even while they are playing sports/making albums. That inspires me.
