Make a budget for black tax and don’t exceed it. Let me tell you a quick story. Earlier this year, when I got sued and everything hit the internet, at home, I overheard a cousin laughing and saying “the money she refused to give me, she’ll now spend it on this lawsuit.” This was someone who had asked me for money just about a week earlier, and I genuinely couldn’t afford it at the time. I cried A LOT the day he said that. What hurt me wasn’t just the comment even, it was realizing that my years of generosity didn’t matter after the one time I said no. It taught me something important: support your family, yes but never ever overstretch yourself. Set a clear budget for black tax. Stick to it and once it’s exhausted, let it be. You can’t pour from an empty cup.
