This isn't a new idea. It's a called a sou sou in the Caribbean. Also, if you think someone has 10K to put into a pot on a monthly basis, I have a bridge to sell you. These immigrants that come here do get lines of credit from local banks and/or have loans from businessman back home.

This sounds very misleading. She's not telling how or where each person gets the 10k, that's important.

She left a whole bunch of other shyt out...

#1, how did they get $100,000 faster than ppl who have been here since 1619?
did yall parents teach you how to NOT work or save money?

if you work for a whole year straight on minimum wage plus your taxes your clearing like 15k a year,

if you were working part time in high school or something on minimum wage your making like 7k a year

how you nikkas so broke:hhh::mjtf:

10k is alot of money breh. :dahell:

Every culture does their own form of Susu. But folks start off small by contributing about 150 a week or every two weeks. Telling ppl(ADOS for that matter) that they worthless if they can't get 10k, is very tone deaf of you breh.

:francis:
No, it not :gucci::mjtf:


Most people ain't got 5k..let alone 10k
Other races can easily get that from loans or family members

Usually a result of poor decisions and bad habits.

if you want it, you go get it.

The lady made it seem it was a one-time payment..that u have to pay back when your business turns a profit
10k every six months for a different member to collect 100k is unheard of
Folks have to donate 10k for years before getting their turn..

Its really not alot of money and the main barrier to pooling that much money together is cultural not financial.

You dont even need to whole community to do it, you can start with your family. If we didnt kick our kids out as soon as they hit 18, we could have a whole house of working adults to contribute to saving money. 10k wouldn't be hard to hit under those circumstances, but our culture dictates that everyone should only lookout for themselves.

Other groups do the same thing. I used to know a Jamaican cab back in Philly who said that Jamaicans would do the same exact thing this lady is talking about. I don't think the trust is there with black Americans to do this. It's a very good idea though.
That’s what it ultimately boils down to. Distrust has been ingrained in #ADOS since being enslaved.

The reason it's so easy for them to do it is because they're in a strange land where they have to band together. If they were so good at cooperating they would have done it in their homeland instead of fleeing. If African-Americans moved to a foreign country we would do the same thing as them instinctively. We don't have to mirror the immigrants, our mission is more difficult than them because we have to be better than them by doing in our homeland what they were unable to do in theirs.

Their homelands are probably piss poor and dead broke without the opportunities that the U.S. provides.

If AAs moved to another country, we'd do it outta necessity, but there's nothing stopping us from doing it here other than jealousy at another black person becoming more successful that you.

We laugh at how Mexicans will live 10-20 people deep under one roof, but half of them are adults contributing to bills. We laugh at the shyt, but they'll own that house one day then move on to buying another house.

African American culture dictates that you are on your own the minute you turn 18, these immigrants dont have that mentality.

Live deep in a tiny ass house or apartment. Keep expenses down to the necessities. Every adult works and contributes to bills unless they're enrolled in some guaranteed money making shyt like med school or engineering.
Take out loans if needed.

i'm telling anyone that if they can't save towards their goals then they not trying hard enough. the quote was from a song it's not meant literally to say you are worthless without 10k

it's getting hard to have conversations on here with the levels of comprehension around...

:snoop:

Thread full of people complaining about the difficulty of stacking 10k but ling ling just worked and stacked nothing else.

*coli brehs
"how did she get that 10k"
"but the cacs don't want you to stack"
"brehs have x, y, and z things to spend money on"

:dahell:

setting up hurdles... it never stops. that coli can't do attitude :deadmanny:
