nikka I really made you mad huh? :mjlol:

I dont know you from a can of paint

Its thecoli where everybody rubs elbows with multi millionaires...

They say its so easy to make a bill gates, make another bill gates then :scusthov:


Yup an independent mindset is making another bill gates. Not being worried about being fired is as hard as creating another microsoft.... fukk trying.

Im so sorry for what they did to your spirit but keep your fear to yourself. Its cancerous to the rest of us.


@Ill Clinton neg me all your want fakkit it wont change anything :umad:

It's definitely harder than the average person perceives. That's why I've acquired a distrust and hate for :dame: type nikkas smh.

All talk, no action.

If you want to be an effective "boss" you can start by not looking down on your employees, I never see that type of thing end well.

Exactly you got you with your site that you learned up on and others like @ORDER_66 that his books moving but cats always talking about its hard to shyt in this day and age like they are in our grandparents age. shyt is sad honestly but it also means that for those that really try you almost certain to have less competition than you think.

Exactly

Most of the good business threads i've seen have been in The Root and Higher Learning :manny:. The Locker Room isn't exactly the knowledge corner. Different sections have different types of threads. I think some of you who make these "it's impossible to start a business, if its possible why wont someone explain to me how to do it :damn:" threads don't venture outside The Locker Room so you assume that there are no informative threads on the whole Coli.

It took me a minute to find those links above. All i did was type in The Coli Business/Entrepreneurship. Some of those threads have good advice, are they telling you every single thing step-by-step and providing start up money? No, but some good advice. OP is another case of a black man complaining about someone not holding his hand and Google-ing how to do something for him. The info is out there, not just on The Coli, if someone really wants to know how. Even more comical that nikkas will complain about somebody not bringing them the info of how to start a business instead of researching it himself (when he obviously has internet access), but they will waste countless time discussing athletes and rappers, random IG hoes athletes and rappers are sleeping with, when sneakers are dropping and which colorways are the best, clothes, music, lamborghinis, etc etc etc

I'm out :win:

Y'all swear it's easy for every nikka to start their own business:skip:


Aight then, explain exactly HOW easy it is to just start a business and get the profit rolling?


Y'all some fukkin business experts but can never explain the shyt
-Get wholesaler's licence
-Buy products wholesale
-Sell products at + X% of expenses
-Repeat

Problem most folks have is that they want to make more money than their start up money and/or skill set will allow, and lack the patience and/or work ethic to build a stash and/or skill set to make more initially.

What I did? Applied the above steps to real estate. What I will do goin' forward? Apply the above steps to both real estate (short term, faster money) and stock market (long term, slower money). I'll be a full time professional investor in less than 2 years.

Let me tell you, its hard as hell to rely on the black community. They don't have the instinct to buy things that make them happy.

People think there is a myth that white people just support any white business. That is a lie straight out of the buy black playbook. What really happens is white people are not hesitant to ensure good service is not lost. They see someone do something original and it makes them feel good, they buy instantly.

They don't just say "awesome," or "will support." They do it immediately.

It's what I am currently struggling with. Making an ultra high quality unapologetically black franchise and having a customer base that says "Oh I got to get this," but don't or buy like 1 copy 2 months later.

Most in the black community just don't understand what momentum is. If my kickstarter was to be relied upon exclusively on the black community, I would probably be doomed almost entirely because they take their time in a game where time is the most valuable commodity.

It's 2016.

Little kids are making money independently now.

Its sad to see grown ass men wanting someone to hold their hand and tell them exactly what to do.:francis:

And "business" is a broad term. A business can be anything from a local bar to an online etsy shop selling prints.

You can get it out here, it's not as hard as you think. It just takes TIME. But most people don't have the patience to succeed.
Agreed.

@D1Sellout is just a weak ass ho so all he can do is whine about how its so hard instead of manning up and trying.

The Black community just isn't that reliable. Old negros have the loyalty of crackhead and the young want white acceptance when it's simply not reasonable when it involves tangible items.

This is why threads like these are stupid. Theres a gang of business related threads on here, but because it's not in the locker room it doesn't exist to these dummies
