He is so damn short and cute. But I never knew he amassed that much while in office, that sounds fishy af. You think he was down with Spitzer/corruption stuff? :ohhh::patrice:



i would be ashamed to have my name on this list when there are so many suffering, but hey that's just me though. i'm sure you can take your billions with you when you die

Ashamed of having money? lol@ this being a concept anywhere, ever.

Jaqueline Mars got me like :ohhh: then I googled and was like :stopitslime: But no, black people are not on this list because we contributed over 300 years of FREE labor to these inheritances and get nothing in return :francis: Pretty sad when you think about it but that shouldn't stop anyone from trying to get their name on this list one day. Hell, you don't even need billions. You just need a strong, determined family and the billions will come. Oprah was poor and so were a lot of other black millionaires. We didn't have shyt no inheritances, not even 2 good parents most time but we still in the game
You generally need a little bit more than that. Having two highly educated upper-middle class parents is usually a prerequisite for being a millionaire.

Generational wealth

Not really, actually if you're talking black people, I usually hear the opposite. That they're parents were hard workers or bypassed college but instilled the value of dedication and education.

Edit: and a lot of luck is needed

Of course he did.But they'll never investigate his ass because he donates millions of dollars to charities and hits other politicians off.

Black politicians have been kicked out of office for far less.

nah my dude. it certainly helps, much like a degree can help, but the main thing that helps someone become a millionaire (having come from nothing) is creativity, followed by strong work ethic, followed by a lil bit of luck.

Most of those a$$holes inherited their money. That's that white privilege. We gotta set our future generations up the same way cacs do to insure Our great-great-great grandkids can eat too. But a lot of black people in this country are living in the now and generational wealth don't mean jack shyt to many of us. So the cycle will just continue :coffee:
