Amber Rose say 'Women should get what they want by any means necessary'

In her new book “How To Be a Bad Bitch,” Amber Rose imparts some financial wisdom to young women seeking entrepreneurial success. see what she had to say to her fellow women after the cut...
She said:

“I feel like I’m in a position to give advice to women because I’ve made all of these mistakes,” Rose tells TIME. For instance, she says, “one of the biggest financial mistakes that I ever made was making a lot of money—I wanna say I made $1 million in 2011—and I spent all of it. And then after that, I had to pay taxes, and I did not have money for the taxes, and I was like, ‘I cannot believe I did this.’ And I really had to start over … I know a whole lot of people that don’t pay taxes. And it comes back to bite you in the ass. Trust me. So I did pay all my taxes off, and I feel amazing now, but it took a lot of hard work.”

The model/actress went on to expand on the skills she acquired while dancing that can every business woman can apply to their lives on the daily basis. 

“Being a dancer definitely was like being in business school,” she says, “because I constantly spoke to people. I mean, I literally had to persuade a man to give me money out of his pocket. And I apply that to my daily life. Even getting a book, you have to have an initial meeting—Hi, Simon and Schuster!—with the publisher, and you have to sell yourself.”

As for young women who are struggling to start the career path of their dreams? Rose advises that you do plenty of research about whatever endeavor you choose to pursue. The South Philly native also recommends taking the time to re-align your priorities, finding a mentor, and even using seduction to your advantage. 

“Really, fully research every aspect of the business that you’re trying to get into,” she says.
“Explain to your friends that you won’t always be able to hit the club with them when you’re trying to save money. If they’re your friends, they’ll respect it. Tell them that you’re trying to save up for whatever it may be, and if they want you to come out with them then it has to be their treat. As women, we’re fortunate enough to use our seductive skills in order to be able to get money from our significant others. I also talk about seduction in the book. A lot of women don’t know how to seduce a man. It is extremely easy once you get to that point, and you can get anything you want out of them. And I know it might sound messed up, but once you get to that point, it’s not using. It’s not using a man, it’s literally getting what you want by any means necessary.”

Rose goes on to address those looking to downplay her credibility as a business woman due to her past with a some food for thought. 

“I am a mogul. I have a bunch of businesses, I’m now an actress, I’m an author, I went on an entire world tour and I don’t even sing. So if that doesn’t tell you that I am an entrepreneur, then I don’t know what does.” 

The fact that I was a stripper does not take away the fact that I’m smart, that I am witty, that I am capable of running my own business,” 

she says. 

“There’s famous guys that were drug dealers back in the day, and no one ever brings up that fact. But as a woman, they bring up the fact that I was a hustler. And it’s extremely unfair, and I just don’t tolerate it.”
“They belittle me like I’m just some baby mama,” Rose says, while discussing media platforms that opt to acknowledge her personal life over her professional life. “I was married—I still am married, actually. And I do have a beautiful son. I’m not a baby mama. I’m so much more than a baby mama. So, how f—ing dare you? You know what I’m saying? And to see the comments from women, saying like, ‘Well, you are a baby mama,’ it’s just like, ‘Girl, you are so lost. You are not just a baby mama. Let’s help each other.’”
