In a recent interview with Business Insider Rick Ross explained why even as a multimillionaire, he still cuts his own grass.
“From my understanding, the former owner of my estate had 17 people maintaining close to 300 acres. Even though he was very wealthy, the estate ended up going into foreclosure. So, to avoid this, I maintain the bulk of it with my buddies.” he said. “They handle the yard work, and I bought a tractor and I cut the grass. I’m thinking long-term, and hopefully I can get some other people to think this way as well.”
