Waka Flocka Flame would be considered by most standards to be a veteran of the rap game at this point, having scored his first breakthrough single with 2009's "O Let's Do It." The Atlanta emcee has learned a lot along the way and he's eager to help young up-and-comers avoid some pitfalls, especially those related to money.

Waka recently dropped some wisdom online in which he covered everything from the importance of getting paid for live shows, to keeping in mind the cumulative costs of studio time, to not letting travel expenses get out of control.

Check out the clips up top, where Waka also touches on the importance of spending quality time with your girl.
