Ep. 72: Transfer Portal

This week on I Gotta Win the Lotto, we covered a little bit of everything—sports, culture, and money moves. One minute we’re talking NCAA football eligibility rules, the next we’re breaking down why everybody’s moving back home, and somehow we still made it back to investing in yourself and your business. A very on-brand episode, honestly.

The Reverse Great Migration Is Real

More people are packing up and heading back to the South—and no, it’s not just for cheaper rent and better food (though that helps). We broke down the reverse Great Migration and why Black professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs are choosing community, culture, and ownership over “the grind” elsewhere. It’s deeper than geography—it’s about legacy, access, and building where it actually feels like home.

Investing in Your Business Like It’s the Plan

At some point, you have to stop treating your business like a side quest. This episode dug into what it really means to invest in yourself—money, time, resources, and discipline. Whether it’s equipment, marketing, education, or just betting on your own vision, we talked about shifting the mindset from “maybe” to “this is it.”
