Mr. Combs has his hands in multiple investments, including the TV network Revolt, the new music-based, multiple-platform channel; Sean John, the clothing line; CIROC, the alcoholic beverage; Bad Boy Entertainment, the record label — just to name four.
His business strategy involves creating opportunities and not being risk-averse.
Diddy told FORBES in a recent interview, “Right now my focus is Revolt and making it the No. 1, most-trusted, most-credible worldwide brand for music…and to get Revolt to be the quintessential definition of real time. I think that’s the future.”

There are more wealthy white males in the world than there are Africans and the global Diaspora, yet I have never seen an article headlinng or subtlety glorifying the fact that they achieved their success without a college degree.
This deceptive headline (in my view), is sending the wrong message to African-American youth, 98% of whom will never aspire to Diddy's wealth, with or without a college degree.
Education is important to learn how to learn, and even to learn how to research the best financial planners to manage ones wealth. A critical resource often missing in most Black entertainers and sportsmen’s business portfolio; which is why so many end up broke and in debt later in their lives. A time when they can least afford.
Let's be real, and send out a positive message to our children to STAY IN SCHOOL and most importantly, LEARN HOW TO LEARN even after one leaves the halls of academia. That is ones true wealth when all the spotlights are off and Father Time has taken its toll on the soul.
