Basic Economics
February 22, 2007 — ibnabeeomarGot this off the Freakonomics blog, this video is really good. There’s some good halal investment tips in there too 
The part about the crack dealing is from chapter 3 of the book. This book is a great read, one that I really enjoyed, you can get the book here:
Without further ado.. here is the video on Basic Economics by Tommy Bottoms: (FYI video is kind of R rated)

As-salaamu ‘alaikum wa rahmatAllah,
Sorry couldn’t help myself.. had to respond -)
ha basic economics?
I beg to differ reminds me of the statement of the Prophet
“when the slave of the dinar sees money he is pleased
when he doesn’t get it he is anything but pleased”
i been around to know the game is not about the hustle
otherwise you’ll see around you all it is just hustle and bustle
moving here and there, all you see is what you get
but guess what?
you’re going nowhere, you’ll end up with just grief and regret.
It’s about a little more than basic economics,
trust in Allah
a lot of work
cause i’ll tell you this much, no industry can put an equation on barakah, not even economics
You can get a stadium full talking about money and power
but remember this much
if it ain’t about the game and the hustle, we’ll know whats basic when it IS established, established what? The Hour..
And Allah, The Almighty, Knows Best…
