Rick Ross Shares That He Saves Money By Cutting His Own Grass And Flying Commercial
Lil Baby Gifts Gunna A Shoebox Of Cash For His 28th Birthday
GUNNA AND LIL BABY
To celebrate and honor his friend on his 28th birthday, Lil Baby headed out with Gunna and his friends to the club this weekend.
When it came time for gift- giving, Lil Baby kept it sim- ple and gifted his Drip Harder brother an Air Jordan shoebox full of cash. In a video posted to Instagram, Gunna seemed pretty satisfied with his gift, as he meandered around his cir- cle carrying the box and flex- ing his jewelry to the camera. While it’s unclear how much money was actually in the box, it looked like quite a large sum.
Both Gunna and Lil Baby have a lot of reasons to cele- brate this year. Gunna, who is still comfortably coasting off the No 1. album success of
Slime Language 2, is set to headline the JMBLYA festival series in Texas this summer alongside Future. He also showed up to celebrate a fan’s birthday earlier this week, gift- ing her a flashy Cartier watch as a present.
When he’s not working and partying it up with his fans, he’s helping Thugger post bail for Fulton County Jail in- mates and recently freed 30 people from the jail who were incarcerated on minor charges.
As for Lil Baby, his joint project The Voice of the He- roes with Lil Durk is still hot and last week sold 158k, shooting to the top of the Bill- board charts and giving Lil Durk his first number 1 album ever.
No one talks about the spoils of wealth and opulence better than Rick Ross. But, Rozay also does the hard work to maintain his lifestyle by practicing fiscal responsi- bility.
Ross proudly resides on a 235 acre estate in Fayet- teville, Georgia that was pre- viously owned by boxing legend Evander Holyfield. Although he took over Holy- field’s property, Ross isn’t following in his financial footsteps. Instead of spend- ing close to $1 million a year to maintain the mansion’s lawn, Ross told Forbes that he actually cuts the grass

himself.
“When I bought the Fayet-
teville estate, locals would see
me walk out of a restaurant and scream, ‘You know Holyfield spent $1 million a year to cut the grass.’ So I de- cided that I was gonna cut my own grass. And that’s what I did,” Ross said in a new in- terview. “I went down to John Deere and asked to see the biggest tractor, the most efficient tractor. I told them I had 200-plus acres that I wanted to keep cut, and they pointed out the right tractor. ...Imayhavesatinthesame spot for two hours before I got everything working, but once I got it going, I didn’t stop. I cut grass for about five hours.”
