The Hasidic Jews do this too. Not only that, they don’t marry legally, have 4 plus kids, and their wives get section 8, which they rent out under the table, wic, food stamps, and cash welfare. They are also notorious for voting themselves into office, and taking money from public schools, when they send their kids to private Jewish schools. Everybody knows how to work the system but us.
Can't talk about that breh you making excuses for mentioning reality. We just lazy and not as smart as the others according to these fools
If another suburban kid in this thread living at home with his mommy and daddy talk about how easy it is to save. I'mma lose it nikka anybody living at home can save a gang of money. Try finding AA adults willing to sacrifice living arrangements and fun for a bigger picture. It's hard af. BUT. IT'S not impossible.
Exactly. None of these nikkas from the bottom and never had to really struggle just to hustle. Don't even know what that means but telling people who live/lived the shyt how easy it is. Somebody said they make 65 or 75gs a year and was able to save like they don't realize there're literally making 3 times as much as a poor person .
The fact that Asians can even afford the flight over here puts them above a SIGNIFICANT amount of black people. Like them flight be like 1.5k. That would take months to save for a working class adult If middle income and up black folks don't do it, it ain't going down cause they got the money. Specially baby boomer blacks. They got a LARGE portion of our tiny wealth and they hoard the shyt like they taking it with them when they go. Won't even let they kids live with them to save for a couple months let alone YEARS. Smh
These types act like history didn't happen. Like black folks weren't still being economically disenfranchised through the mid 20th century (lynchings, being locked out of economic opportunities, the failure of black banks due to the lack of capital etc). None of us are saying don't work hard or try at business but you have to have a realistic view of the obstacles that you will face due to accrued disadvantages of being black in the United States. I don't want to hear about fukking immigrants who were probably elite back home coming with bullshyt "I came to this country with nothing but a straw hat" narratives. They weren't targeted for convict leasing, they weren't lynched and had their land stolen from them, they were not the target of the War on Drugs. Expecting black folks to just hand someone 10K "to start a business" without that person having a track record of success or being legit is also not reasonable. We need access to good capital, to REAL capital.
Me(AA) and a Roma dude outworked all the other groups when we did manual labor. When we did work with the Japanese they wouldn’t take jobs with us unless I was involved That was when the model minority myths crumbled before my eyes by the minute every day A lot of people come to my dad for business consulting and have had successful businesses cause of him. He typed a whole lot of nothing
I started out in the projects. I left home at 16 and stayed in a garage apartment for $175/month on a part-time salary ($4.15/hr - 20 hours a week) from KFC in 1990 and still finished high school. I joined the military against my parent's wishes (we only reconciled during my 3rd year in). When my ship had it's first Med deployment, I bought my first car cash (1996 Nissan 200SX) off of earnings from selling name brand cigarettes, snuff and chewing tobacco and loaning out money to sailors (mostly white) who wasted their money on bullshyt, living from paycheck to paycheck. After I got out, I bought my first house on an $18K salary because I came up with the crazy idea to give up my lease and to live in my car for over a year boondocking (before they had a name for it) in a WalMart parking lot. I was washing my ass in the morning and night at the fitness center (they had showers), for a $50/month membership, to get up the scratch to make the down payment. To show you how stupid I was, I only thought disabled and veterans retirees could use the VA for a loan. That's how stupid I was. I didn't go out and get the McMansion. My first house, which I rent out now, is less than 1.2K square feet and needed about $15K of rehab that I did myself, room by room. You guys have YouTube to do about anything on a house when it comes to rehab/repair. I had to convince a GC that I wasn't bullshyting (most told me to get out of dodge) that I was willing to work for free to learn how to do XYZ or head down to the library crossing my fingers hoping I could find a howto book on XYZ. I grew up in the poorest, most crime ridden county in the state of NC, which still gets shytted on until this day. I never made more than $38K before I quit working 9 to 5 in 2000. I've tried to get cats I grew up with jobs working with the state that have felonies. Some of these jobs would have cats starting out the gate at $35K. Out of about 10 cats, only one could stop smoking weed for 30 fukking days to pass the drug screening test. One. I guarantee if you plugged your bank account into a program like Mint or Personal Capital, you'll have a revelation and found out a significant portion of your income is spent on bullshyt. Hell, I know you throw out leftover food every week. Do you smoke? Do you drink? That's anywhere from $300 to $500, depending on your habit, wasted every month. I've said it repeatedly on here before that my maternal great-great-uncle was involved in the Wilmington Riot 0f 1898. They burned down his two general stores, his funeral parlor and his three-story house. He had to stay in a church steeple for almost two weeks eating raw eggs and sneaking down at night to get water from the baptismal pool to drink before he safely made it out of Wilmington traveling to Maxton, NC. He worked hard to get everything back and more in less than a decade. Before he died, his net worth was the equivalent for $250K in today's dollars. My maternal grandfather graduated from high school at 16 in 1926. He got accepted to Stillman U in Tuscaloosa, AL. About 200 miles away from Stillman, one of the conductors kicked him off when he found out my grandfather was going to college. He made it half of the way on foot before an older black man gave him a ride the rest of the way. After his mother got sick, he dropped out in his junior year to take car of her never finishing college. He was a domestic for the rest of his life but he saved enough to buy two homes.
thats a complex and varied answer. one major advantage is having a home country from which you can buy goods from at a very low cost and sell at a substantially higher markup. having business connections and people willing to teach you how to own and operate a business it paramount.
its easier to do when you're not bunch of self hating c00ns first thing a nikka say, "I ain't working for you nikka"

Hence why I said that the cultural mindset needs to change. No one is saying that African Americans have not been dealt historically a bad deck of cards but that doesn’t change the fact that in the here and now you can make decisions within your control that can set your family for generations if you a group of people willing to work together to achieve it. but the same people mouthing off that immigrant ...African immigrants all come from money and don’t know the struggle is a deflection to not take ownership for the things that are within their control to change. the biggest damage other than the physical, that has been done to African descendants across the diaspora, is this feeling that no matter what they do, they are always beholden to whites. I unfortunately see that mindset a lot with the diaspora. This constant feeling/attitude that they can’t get nowhere without white approval so why bother trying. Before any of what is being mentioned in this thread can be achieved, that is the first thing thing to tackle...mental slavery. whites aren’t gods ...and truth be told, a lot of the historical damage that they have been able to achieve has been done with the help of the same people they were hurting. Those who understand the significance of team work, tripling/quadrupling efforts are always going to be ahead of those who are self centered and place the self above all else and that is the running theme on this site. The only reasons why y’all can’t do it, is because you don’t have a group of like minded people to achieve it and are doing it alone and are no further ahead. A significant reason why Black people suffer and have suffered historically is we struggle to come together for the long term and often want instant gratification.
