Okay, we all know rap (to some) is just a form of entertainment, but we all know that some rappers have given great advice in their songs.

This advice is usually common sense, but most of us fail to use the advice in everyday life. These advice-quotes are not something you can learn in class.

School doesn't teach us how to "get rich," it's something we have to learn in our private time or from experience, nor does school teach us banking.

So, we agree that we can learn new things outside of school? Right? Although we already know these things, there are people out here who don't know anything about life and how to survive.

I wanted to collect quotes from rappers who have given great advice. There are rules we have to follow in life.

This thread is more than likely for the con artists, people who look to take advantage of a certain "something" in life, in order to live their life to the fullest. This thread is not for the innocent, people like me don't believe in moral laws. We believe in order to survive we must do what is necessary, even if means breaking the law.

We all agree that everyone makes mistakes, but what we want to do is, give people the warning, before they make a mistake.

So, with that out of the way, I wanted to start this thread with the artist which sparked the idea of this thread.

As Jay-Z said on his song, Feelin It, "I hope you fools choose to listen I drop jewels bust it/
These are the rules I follow in my life you gotta love it/"

Rule #1: Make sure your clique is rich.

If every n*gga in your clique is rich your clique is rugged Nobody will fall cause everyone would be each others crutches

Rule #2: Gamble at the table that starts a G up.

Viva Las Vegas See Ya Later At The Crap Tables Meet Me By The One That Starts A G Up This Way No Fraud Willie's Present Gambling They Re Up And We Can Have A Pleasant Time Sippin Margaritas

Rule #3: Never rent.

You guessed it, manifest it in tangible goods Platinum Rolexed it; we don't lease We buy the whole car, as you should

I know there are more quotes, I could go on for days, but that's why you guys are here. I want you guys to finish the list of quotes.

Rule: Plan for the best, prepare for the worst

"you can plan a pretty picnic but you can't predict the weather" - 3stacks

Rule: Logistics

"never get high on ya own supply"

"Every man has his own heaven the difference is the way that he envision it
So if you make your heaven picture less
By the time you die
You'll be driftin' in an imageless field
So build your heaven full of blessed thoughts
That's real, you can stress it or just let it walk
I got a question if a man can make his own heaven
Can he make his path to get to it too?
I only spit through a truth
And I spit it for the listeners
So I'm spittin' to you
You say it's hell
I say it's bulls**t we getting through
Just think about it every man has his own heaven
But s**t you gotta' go through hell to be a man first
And understand first
Hell is what you choose to call the present
That's why you're going through it
I just choose to call it stressin'
To tell you fools the truth
I don't feel that why I'm destined
So you can call it hell but bro
I'll just say I'm below the heavens" ~ Blue "The World Is"

"you never know she could be earner her man and learnin' her man and at the same time burnin' her man" - Snoop

I know Fred got this line from Biggie, but I don't want this thread to turn into the 10 crack commandments, so I decided to go with his line.

You don't have to post quotes about drugs.

most of too short verses have memorable quotes (yes i know he ain't lyrical) e.g

You ain't no pimp fake n*gga stop lyin

Think about the real motherf**kers that live it
Street life, pimp s**t, make the hoe respect the game
You bought her diamonds and cars, trick that's a shame

"Difficult takes a day, impossible takes a week"
