Why are you expecting or hoping that rich black people save black people? It's not happening. That's not how anything works. "Compete"...huh?

Private sector money isn't saving us. I'm not one of these black people playing the perpetual victim card BUT let's be real here. Black wealth is fukked. COVID knocked us back even further and we're not far off from automation completely finishing the job. Should rich black people help black people go to college, start businesses etc? Sure. But you can't stop this train. Black people are finished in the US, economically and power wise.

I'm just ranting bruh.

its depressing as shyt.

all our black dollars is in like three guys who didn't make money in entertainment.

the rest are guys who hawk liquors, inflate clothing brand prices before they sell, and chitlin circuit films.

In fact, Tyler Perry is IMO the most legit one if we're talking black entertainment business.

you broke and don't know anything about business

Entertainment is a business, the biggest business there is

its been around since the beginning of money, and ain't going nowhere, it's like food and shelter, people will always need entertainment

only reason people talk shyt about the entertainment is because blacks are the best in business, that's it

my kids 9 and 7.. Incase there careers don't pan out .. maybe they can fall back on acting..

150 million? Thought it would have taken a higher amount to do that.

The 150 is invested or setup to where it always be able to cover the tuition for the students of that program in any given semester..... let’s just say 150 students per semester taking this course at 5k a clip..... These are random numbers but 150 million invested properly can cover this into perpetuity to a degree, along with the schools help of course....... its kind of a Title 9 course so to speak for Yale....

You're the fool here.

Entertainers are some of the least powerful people out here.

I think you went as far to say that you'd turn your back on your own brother if he came out as gay. Geffen is an openly gay man. A search of your social media would bury you during the application process.

But, hey, you could always blame an immigrant for taking your spot.

damn…where this come from?

 

[Master Teacher]

You're the fool here.

Entertainers are some of the least powerful people out here.

Whatever you say, you talking about people who are billionaires and have 100 millions of dollars

when you don't even have a lemonade stand

it's scene in the movie Meteor Man, where Robert Townsend, how can you all complain while you do nothing

what do you do for living, how much power you get, you yelling from the bench

you don't have the business acumen to run a fukking landscaping company and talking shyt about people way more powerful and successful than you will ever be

this is a loser's mentality, get in the game, actually accomplish something then talk about what others should do

 

[ajnapoleon]

And this is why I say black millionaires have no power because they're all in entertainment.

White billionaires are so insulated by not having to focus on basic human rights and infrastructure issues that they can blow money on ART SCHOOLS.

There IS no black success right now. Its BAD.

Wait .....


I was told all black millionaire and billoinAires are the devil





Why would we want money from them

 

[Taadow]

That’s amazing...






...but I notice he isn’t donating to the Yale School of Business. Lol

 

[Fillerguy]
