Louisiana has a serious poverty issue. It has got to be one of the few states where I barely hear of Fortune 500 company being located or headquartered there.

Sh*t just realized the hard rock hotel was demolished before it was even completed in New Orleans
Yep. Poverty is everywhere too.

That's 2 1/2 months gross salary for the avg american
Obviously whether it's a lot of money to you personally depends on your circumstances but generally for the avg person that's a huge amount of money
People were out here risking federal indictments to get their hands on $10k and then acting like they were up up during the pandemic
Muthafukkas out here STILL talking about the $1k Trump gave them on them covid cards so let's be real here

10K is a decent of amount of $$ for those who don't have any bills and other financial responsibilities.

For those who do have bills and other financial responsibilities, 10K isn't a lot of money. May get a person through a month or so or maybe less??

Everyone's situation is different, so I expect different opinions.

I aint even gonna bullshyt it. It takes me 5 checks to gross 10k, and 7 paychecks to take home 10k net. it is easy to spend 10k, but takes a while for most people to make. I'm sure most people are gonna lie though. And I make almost $30 an hour...in Louisiana.
$30/hr is great money with 0 kids back home breh.

I'm looking to move back home in 2024 to establish my base in the art world. Gonna try and live in the art section of NO.

10k is a lot of money on depending on what's it for and depending on who you are and how much you make.

Context is everything.

This is a golden opportunity for people to flex AND elicit sympathy.

10k is a lot of money. That's 5 months of rent in a typical city. 10k can cover car payments for nearly a year. 10k is 6 or more months of a mortgage payment. 10k is enough to dig a lot of people out of debt.

If I got 10k right now I’d spend it on things I’ve been putting off. Imma say it’s a lot.

Nikkas in the news:

"We disenfranchised and lack resources for education and poverty is the root of our issues".

Nikkas on the internet:

"10k ain't sh*t, I can blow through that in a month"


Do people ever get tired of being stupid liars?

10k is not a lot of money. Even if you broke and 10k means more to you than someone else, 10k not gonna last long. It’s some money but not a lot of money. If I add up all the money nikkas owe me right now, shyt is over 30k lol

How did you get to the point that a group of people owe you $30,000? Do you never say no???

"The median household income for Black U.S. households in 2021 is $46,400, which means half of households headed by a Black person earn more than that and half earn less. Broader analysis shows that 52% of Black U.S. households earn less than $50,000, while 48% make $50,000 or more."

"Three-in-ten make $75,000 or more, including about a fifth (19%) that make $100,000 or more."


"Median household income typically peaks when workers reach their 40s and 50s, when many are well established in their careers, and 2020 was no exception. Households with workers ages 45 to 54 brought in the most income, with a median $97,089. This was a 2.6 percent increase in real median income from the previous year."


Folks got to stop lying out here. Those #s don't lie. :wow:

Black people hate numbers. It's about what they feel or what they saw or what their people tell them. I live in New orleans and I know THREE people that make 100k, verified. One is a Nurse practitioner, one is a manager at the main water company, and the other is the Director of the Water stuff in the neighboring county. One is 37, one is 36, and one is 40. I know another person makes 85k, at 37. EVERYONE else? They all range between $12 and $30 an hour (I know a few nurses).

$30/hr is great money with 0 kids back home breh.

I'm looking to move back home in 2024 to establish my base in the art world. Gonna try and live in the art section of NO.

Not anymore. The combo of covid inflation and Ida fallout has made inflation skyrocket. I'm doing what I can to get to $50 an hour as fast as I can. $30 next year, and hopefully $40 within 3-5 years from now.

People not borrowing cash. Even though I do have like 3k from straight cash I let people borrow out there. It’s just the nature of the business I’m in. Kind of like Pepsi. Every soda sold not gonna be paid for right away. Im sure they got major accounts where they invoicing people or they paying like half up front and the rest later. Well, same type shyt with what I do. 30k actually kind of light. It’s been times where shyt been like 60-70k if you add up everything.
