Hip hop artist Abu Ali (moneycoachmusic.com) was doing some shopping on Michigan Avenue while talking on his golden phone.

You are also known as Money Coach. What exactly do you teach people?
I’m known as money coach because I coach people on how to raise their
entrepreneurial spirit and take control of their finances.

What’s more important: looking rich or being rich?
Being rich is more than looking rich.

What are some things us broke commoners can do to look rich?
Always dress for success.

Your latest album is called “Bow Tie Fly.” What’s so fly about a bow tie?
A bow tie symbolizes distinction, style confidence, and the ladies love them.

Where do you get your accessories?
Akira, Topman and H&M.
