Interview # 20
We have Benjamin, umm...
Benjamin Creed
Yes. So Benji, tell us what's life like on the streets? We have young teenagers out there who wants to run away from their homes.
The streets ain't no joke, especially where I'm from. A lot of things go on that you wouldn't want to be a part of. Growing up in the hood I had to make a lot of hard choices. Luckily I made the right ones or I'd have ended up dead like a lot of my classmates.
I can understand running away. I have. But sometimes you have to ask yourself if it's worth it. Is life at home so bad that living and surviving on your own is the only option? If so, I advise you to seek help first. Be it a community center, a teacher, or a peer. Look for another way out because once you're on the streets, it ain't easy getting off of 'em.
What advice would you give young teenagers to help them in life?
Stay in school. Cliché, I know, but it's the honest truth. Yeah a lot of drop outs make it big but that's not always the case. Aside from that, you ain't getting nowhere in life fast without at least a basic education.
Any mistakes you want to warn the future young men of today?
Too damn many to name. Life is about making mistakes though. Just try not to do anything that'll get you killed or behind bars.
So, your fan base, me included, wants to know. Why did you not pick me to go with? Just kidding. Any special someone in your life?
My amazingly talented and beautiful girlfriend, Camryn. We're still going strong. Love the hell out of that woman.
Do you plan to continue college? We heard from a gossip source that you no longer plan to attend college.
That's something that's still up in the air. I've thought about it, and it is a possibility but at the moment it isn't top priority.
We want to know: what is Benji doing currently?
Living life to the fullest. Exploring new places with the most amazing woman to grace the planet. We actually have this running list of how many cities around the world we've had sex in. So far, 17. But don't tell her I told you ;).
