Ry J is a prime example of someone who was extremely well off and very wealthy yet was not satisfied. Ray J is a very successful singer and actor who has made millions of dollars between those two professions but had the entrepreneurial drive to want more. After being wildly successful in the music industry in the mid 90’s to the mid 2000’s, Ray J decided to start a consumer electronics company called Raytroniks in 2007. The company’s catalog included items like electric bikes, smartphone fans, and smart watches. The key to the company’s success was the free advertising he got from celebrities like Snoop Dogg, Stephen Curry, and Justin Bieber, who simply used the products because they were made by their friend. Ray J saw always had a passion for inventing small gadgets and realized that he could use his platform to get free advertising from beloved celebrities, which would lead to lots of sales purely off of name value. Another very profitable invention by Ray J are his wireless Bluetooth earbuds called “Raycons”. Ever since they’re release, Apple’s air pods have dominated the wireless earbuds scene, but the only problem was that all of their features only worked with apple products. Ray J saw this flaw and decided to make earbuds that had all of the features of air pods, but were compatible with any device. We can learn from Ray J that no matter what industry we work in, we always have the opportunity to do what we love, which can often lead to success.

It is awesome that God gives each of us different strengths and passions. I wonder if he is actually happy now that he is an entrepreneur and if that happiness will last. It is a wise observation that money is not what makes us happy; I wonder if Ry J will find that a career change has made him happy or if he will still want more.
