Houston rapper Slim Thug recently shared a bit of financial advice with his fans via a recent New York Times op-ed piece, where he warns readers of the trouble that can follow mixing business with pleasure.

"Who would have known that sex would lead to losing money? Obviously, I didn't," said Slim Thug. He explained that a few years ago he tried to take advantage of a program President Obama put in place that would help him receive assistance with a short-sale deal, with lenders taking a sale price below what he owed on the mortgage. The first step for the "Like a Boss" rapper was finding a real estate agent, and apparently that was the beginning of the end.

"It didn't take long to find an agent, and over time we became very close," he wrote. "In fact, we became too close and found ourselves at a point where pleasure became more important than business."

He claims at the end of the day, people were left with "hurt feelings, mixed emotions and resentment." Due to their personal distractions, Slim missed the deadline to take advantage of the short sale program and ended up in foreclosure.

"So not only did I lose out on money from a potential sale, but I ruined my credit as well. I've suffered financially from not being able to do business in my own name and probably lost around $200,000 directly and indirectly through my mistake."
