No one's making excuses....you got no choice as a black man to succeed cause to fail is to starve and die.

It's just smart to analyze one's surroundings, and observe the current space and time you're occupying in.

By the way, I feel that I'm a unique soul on this board cause I'm a black man that doesn't worship or see himself in black athletes and rappers...a perspective that I feel is not very prevalent on this board.

Cause I know there are brothas out there that want to make money outside of that realm...which is more realistic than pursuing any of that. Anything that actually makes money makes sense.

IT, real estate, contract work, its all about finding one avenue to make money from and then once you got that you can expand.

I'm still trying to get into the game myself, but I'm always looking for ways to proliferate any sort of discussion involving the black experience into a realistic one. We aren't whites, we can't do exactly what they do and expect the same results? How is that admitting defeat?
Idk... I look at all the males in my family like my pops and grandfathers and if they can get successful In the 60's/70's/80's, I have no excuse.... fukk worrying about a white man...

The fact that folks fall right into that woe as me black man shyt instead of discussing the advice in the videos is just sad to me.

We know white are advantaged, but what these dudes are saying still applies. Obviously we have to add our own tactics to combat unfairness like working harder, but that doesn't make the advice in these videos wrong.

My grandfather started out building railroad tracks in the 70's even with a masters in engineering and straight A's. He started at the bottom, literally. He has been a millionaire for about 20 years now... If he can do it in far more unfair times for black folks, then my 27 year old ass has nothing to complain about.

I'm literally at a loss as to how someone opens a thread called "advice from billionaires" watched none of the videos, and instead seemingly only came in here to go on and on whatever bullshyt they wanted to talk about.

It's funny because a lot of times, the resources to improve are there but people will make every excuse not to go after them. I'm not anywhere near rich but damn, wtf are you dudes doing?
