Book excerpt: ufus Shaw's Book, " Hustling: The Art of Black financial Survival," is a simple, common sense guide on how black business people can survive and even prosper if they know what they are doing. Show, whose first book was "How to be Rich nigger," has two degrees from Southern Methodist University in Dallas. He said his street sense was learned in the predominantly black section of South Dallas. Using Humor, poetry and a smattering of profanity, Shaw avoids complicated economic formulas. He starts off by defining hustling: .."making something positive happen under difficult circumstances by using a combination of common sense, understanding of human nature, daring and hard work." In his straight forward style, Shaw Discusses such topics as understanding man from a street perspective, business from that same perspective, the educated fool, going broke and investments. The book is quick and easy reading. Shaw Breaks no new ground as he drops numerous jewels on his readers: " Without some form of education you're lost. Racism will you down, but ignorance will knock you out!" or "When money is in hand, pay your bills on time, when money is short, pay in 60 days, when money is shortest, pay something, but never pay nothing." or: "If you're sued, it is not the end of the world. Millions of people have been sued and have judgments pending..but they live everyday, normal lives. There's no "X" marked on their forehead.. Sure, it'll mess up your credit. The minute the bill collectors start calling, your credit was "Screwed.'" Shaw also devotes a chapter on crime and how it can be a money maker, but not without risks, for black people. There even is a subheading entitled, "Prison University." He does not preach, but he does touch many bases in a fact filled and entertaining 103 page book. Shaw's greatest success in this to me is pulling together a lot of basic wisdom and putting it down in black and white.
