Dr. Boyce Watkins- "Begging for jobs will kill your dignity"

[Skrilla]

"White men don't have to beg because the entire economic system was built for them and around them"

"You have been trained to believe that the best option is to work for a white man"

"No one is going to let you come into their castle and become king. You have to build your own castle and be it's king"

 

[Ron Fox]

What does a woman selling her ass for rent/food/gas/car payment money do for dignity tho??

Cliff notes:

Of course a lot of AAs have to work for a white person until we get to the point where we can be more independent (i.e. stack chips until you have saved enough capital), but don't think you have to work for a white man and beg them for jobs for your whole entire life.

I love Watkins and maybe I don't get everything he says because I'm not in his "Black Wealth Bootcamp" or any of his seminars that you have to pay for

but

It always seems like he gives very general "motivational" advice (which is necessary) but sometimes I'm like some REAL game.

I watched one video where said he told his daughter that her "goal should be to run a business that makes money while you sleep"...

but what business is that? I think he is incredibly intelligent and educated, positive, uplifting, and is saying the things we need to hear. I guess sometimes I want more direction. Anyone can say "hey invest in mutual funds" (which I do currently), but if there are businesses that we should be starting, help us out a little more than just saying "go out there and start a business...don't work for someone else...do it yourself" If you have "run several businesses" tell us about them. What did you need to start? How did you market? How did you network? etc. etc.

Maybe I'm missing something?

You really aren't interested enough in what Watkins talks about. If you were, you'd head over to Google and figure it out yourself. But free information is undervalued. People always want more. It's never good enough when it's free.

There's no secret or magic piece of advice he can tell you. There's a reason the average person needs someone to tell them what job to do. If you need directions, "guidance" and free instructions, you should just stick to what you are doing right now.

If you are serious about learning the game Watkins is spitting, then save up and buy his product.

That's what you are missing - a real desire to start a business.

Yup

I hate applying for jobs, shyt just feels like begging some non-black to give you a chance.

If you're serious, you should look into passive income and research different ways to generate it because there's a lot of them. For example I sell goods on Amazon via FBA, which is basically a fulfillment service that ships and sells goods for you after you send them in. Nothing quite like waking up to overnight sales, it's a rush.
