OP positively highlights a tweet of a person saying black people don't need financial literacy. Get the fukk outta here.

Do I think crypto is largely a scam at this point, with a high $ entry level to make any real financial sense for most people to invest in? Yes. Do I think crypto is largely here to stay? Yea but it'll be a centralized, government backed version; the US treasury department is creating a crypto product for instance. All that being said...teaching black kids the importance of financial literacy and investing isn't a bad thing at fukking all.

it’s no different Then the stock market fam. Buy low, sell high. Middle of the pandemic I put money in eth. And that shyt gained me a lot. I sold like I was suppose to do. I didn’t hold on to a product with no backing.

So let me get this straight.

Black men are exposed to gun violence and drugs every day by these lame ass rappers, but Jay Z is doing something to get them off the streets and teaching them something that could improve their financial well being, and y’all are mad?

What in the fukk is wrong with y’all?

The average income of folks in the Marcy projects is below the poverty line for NYC

Actual financial literacy would tell you someone at that income does not have the stability to make speculative investments

Promotion of skills training would have clearly been a better alternative

There is a reason that the academics and policy folks concerned with employment and poverty are not trying to use crypto as a solution and it's not because they are "haters"

The only reason someone would try to get underemployed populations to take classes on crypto this is to boost the value of their own portfolio which is why this is a blatant scam

The posters in here defending this are just wave riders who hope the scam works because they are also invested
or, they're just equally stupid.

They dont even have to be investors. Many of them think they understand fiat currency, and prove that they missed the later lectures in the class because they just stop there thinking money is "fake anyways" :gucci:

It’s not even like he’s forcing people to go. I think it’s just a one week, free crash course on crypto currency. I’m sure he’s going to give them some stock to start off with and let them do with it what they will
wait he's giving away stock? to boost the price of crypto? :dead:

Thats not even how stock investing works :dead:

Jesus Christ :snoop:

bruh... Fidelity hiring 100+ engineers for their new digital asset division. Imagine thinking one of the biggest investment firms in the world investing that much into a fly-by-night scam. CEO of Fidelity talking about this being her 3rd crypto winter like this bytch already hip and know where this shyt eventually headed. nikkas are dumb af. It's unbelievable
They're squeezing money out of the market.

Thats not the same as saying its a wise financial instrument.

Theres analysts that work on gambling sectors. That doesn't mean everyone should run to the slot machines.

Basically you're saying poor people should never be taught about investing. It's not for them. It's only for people with money. The cac mentality some of yall have when you get a little money is telling :mjpls:
crypto

is

not

investing
