He treated customers so well they had a nickname for the future Maybach Music Group boss.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, I\u2019ll wash your car while you went in the flea market. They go buy Bally\u2019s, they go buy Clarks, whatever it was they were doing. Shit, I\u2019ll put gas in your shit, I\u2019ll organize your cassette deck, anything. I got you. So they always wanted the fat boy that \u2014 they used to call me Heavy Silicone.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now that Rick Ross has acquired some wealth over the years, he\u2019s enjoying every penny of it. Earlier this month, Rozay was a guest on <em>REVOLT<\/em>\u2018s new show <em>Assets Over Liabilities<\/em> and spoke about purchasing a $1 million home in Atlanta just to drive by it. The purchase may seem crazy, but Ross did it to see how far he\u2019s come from those car washing days and embrace the full-circle moment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter I got my deal and my situation, I bought a million-dollar home maybe two minutes from here that I still own that\u2019s right around the corner just so I can ride by it every day while I\u2019m in Atlanta, and that\u2019s what the play was,\u201d Ross said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\" itemprop=\"author\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\">\n<meta itemprop=\"name\" content=\"Mark Elibert\"><br \/>\nby Mark Elibert\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
