    Man. The most inspiring story ever. I got a tattoo, not for the name of the movie. the idea that somebody even at their lowest can pursue a happy life really moves me.

    Sometimes movies change too much because from what I read about the real man, he endured a lot more than the movie shows. He even sold coke and did whatever he had to do to make ends meet during his climb to the top.

      If you gotta sell coke to get by, maybe hold off on having a kid or something. Idk.

    Very inspiring story. The American Dream happened for him - of course he MADE it happen. But that's part of the Dream too. Its the drive inherent in our soul. Not everyone ever summons that from the depths. And even some of those who do, don't succeed.

      Success is not guaranteed for anyone.
      What is guaranteed is failure if you don't keep trying.

    Notice that race was not mentioned once in this interview.
    If it were today, the whole interview would be focused on "Oh is so amazing how a black man made it big."
    They focus just on the fact that this a story about a man rising about hardship. Morgan Freeman was right, ".... the only way to end racism is to stop talking about it...."

    "We give you too much". DAMN! Amen and amen. I know people who've gifted their child a Porsche or other high end car for graduating H.S. What's next? Our society is stifled by youngsters with an entitled attitude and a fervent desire to be famous for doing absolutely NOTHING. Thanks Paris Hilton and Kardashian kids.

    He's very cocky now 👎🏽 it's like he forgot where here came from.... money is very significant.... And the main reason for his struggle and ambition... Now that he has it he says that the money doesn't mean anything...Come on sir
