Black men shop at their corner stores and Black women buy their hair. nikkas lost.

REPPED. This is exactly why every other group comes into American and surpasses blacks. Because blacks do not spend our money as a group, we aspire to be other people so we spend all of our money elsewhere. That racist Korean/Indian/Arab running the corner store doesn't give a damn about you, only about your money that you're giving away to his community.

Another reason is because we don't aspire to own businesses, only to work for them forever and get a good check.

I implore every black person who wants to know more about why we are broke to watch this trailer:

Guap? If you understood their margins, you would understand why they are always working the register. It has zero to do with trust issues.
Excuse my ignorance but how did he buy another business with plans if buying another big he isn't successful? I mean he is about to sew up all three of the gas stations right off the exit to my house.

I don't think certain cultures having higher standards of success than others is the prime determinant. I think socioeconomic status of identifiable groups is a pretty complex thing that can't be reduced to culture influence. I don't know a lot about this so I can't speak with authority, but I suspect immigration plays a strong role in this. Indians coming to North America are probably a pretty successful and driven segment of their population.

Well, there are two basic groups of Indian Americans. Professionals with degrees and certs. They are making bank. Then, there are business owners who may not necessarily have a degree but are running a restaurant, mini-mart, or retail store. These guys are making a bit less than the professionals but have broken out of the Indian caste system and pulled a George Jefferson on all y'alls.
Everyone who falls outside of these two groups are under the median. But, there aren't enough lower income Indian Americans to drop the median down to the $50,000.

Pretty much this. It's not rocket science.

If I was married and my wife was a secretary we'd clear 100k easy.

shyt, If she was a librarian making the 50k entry level amount, [73k+50k= 123k]/2= 61.5k

Indians get engineering and science degrees and get married. You take two people clearing 40k and this is where you get your stat.

For blacks to get this stat, they have to go to college and get married. :yeshrug:

THIS. But black women are independent and black men want to fukk randoms nightly, so this likely won't be a reality in the black community.

Where is the AVERAGE household income CLOSE to 100k?

Median household income has been on the rise for the past three years, climbing 3.8% to $53,891 in June, according to newly released data by Sentier Research. It's yet another indication that the economic recovery is taking hold.

But Americans have yet to fully heal from the Great Recession, which officially ended five years ago. Median income remains 3.1% below its June 2009 level of $55,589. That's in large part because unemployment remained high in the early years of the recovery, according to Sentier.

"Even though technically the recovery began in June 2009 ... the broad measures of unemployment were still high," said Gordon Green, a partner at Sentier. "As people found jobs, their incomes went up and then we started to see incomes turn around."

Though many people are doing better nowadays, the gains are not spread evenly.

Calculator: How close are you to the top 1%?

After suffering deep declines early in the recovery, black households have seen their median income rise by 3.5% over the past three years. Hispanics, meanwhile, were not as fortunate recently -- their income has remained essentially flat since 2011.

Indians do the same shyt as Asians, Middle Easterners, Jews etc. do in this country, stick together and build up their communities.

Do you see Any of these before mentioned people support black business? fukk no, but nikkas think it's a come up to give their money to everyone else but black people. 98% of the money black people spend in this country goes OUTSIDE of the black community. We have the shortest amount a time that a dollar stays in our community, it goes into someone else's pocket (especially white pockets) real quick.

How the fukk can you build your community up with spending habits like this?

I think other races of males and females stick together longer. They at least wait to get divorced until the kids get grown. So yeah they'll ride out for 18+ years and be miserable or at least pretend to be happy, while the kids grow up in a 150+ house in a good community and go to good schools.

Black folks like fukk it, If I make 45K I'm good, I don't need you. And she like well I make 45k I don't need you. so instead of throwing that 80,85,90k together to live someone nice. we exposing our kids to shytty neighborhoods, and poor schooling. And no family structure.

How do blacks break the cycle then, I see where your coming from but what is the solution
