The radio host, who celebrated his 44th birthday uniquely, suggested that his descendants were set for life because he had managed to secure blue passports for his children. He compared life to Formula 1 racing and explained that success depends on the people around you.
“Appreciate the fact that OK, I didn't just invest in me, bro, understand my children's children's children's children forever. I got boys right. The fact that they hold blue passports, they are first world for life and their children. Blue passport dawg is the one where they have less conversations with you at immigration. It's not the fastest car that wins the Grand Prix. Yeah, it's the fastest pit stop. So, a lot of us in life, we end up with the cadence of success gets reduced to a point of a snail. You end up moving at the motion of your weakest link in your universe because of the pit stop. A lot of our office work, the friends we have, the families we are born into, are our pit stop,” he explained.
