Obviously you have to "do for self" individually.

What she's saying is that the people claiming that black folks should just open businesses and invest in bitcoin are not preaching the solution.

In a way y'all are just blaming/judging other black people for the results of this countries white supremacist legacy. While missing the entire point about wealth in this country, and calling other people the c00ns:mindblown:

Wealth isn't earned. Wealth is passed on. If the people holding on to the wealth do not pass it on, then the people who don't have it will never get it.

That's a fundamental truth, therefore any talks of increasing wealth for black people has to revolve around getting it from the people that have it. You can argue about how to do that, but opening businesses and investing in bitcoin is not the answer.

I doubt any of y’all actually watched her whole video :snoop:..And why all the name calling and hate? Sickening

I watched about 30 mins, so the first half. I wanted to watch at least some of it before i gave my opinion.

I didn't call Yvette any names either. She actually seems like she's down to earth, so nothing against her, i just don't really agree with what she's saying. There are other black youtubers who say it too and i don't really agree with them either, so it's nothing personal.

This approach/mentality may work for some, but for a brother my age and the type of lifestyle i'm living and want to continue to live, the "do for self" works better for me. For the past few years i've gotten more heavy into business and investing and i've seen a huge difference for me financially. And i'm able to help my fam a lot more. I can actually give them jobs and put them onto other things

I never really got into crypto so that's not what i'm talking about when i say investing

Its simple.

Babies gotta eat. Bills need to be paid. Money needs to be put away for the future.

My only beef with Yvette is that her plan doesnt lead to any of that. You gotta go out and get it cause nobody gonna give it to you.

We know the government is not coming, so the only rational choice from there... Is stack your paper and plan for the future so your children and grand children arent sitting around waiting for the government and wondering why ya bum ass aint save nothing for the future.

I understand shes a woman.

But most of us here are men... We should have that natural ambition and drive to conquer shyt out here.

Until the government comes, me and my nikkas gon be doing for self and doing for our families cause thats the only rational option

The women can wait around for the gov't but men supposed to be out here stacking paper and making plays.... Not sitting up on YouTube listening to shyt like this.
