Man Turns Down A Half Billion Dollar Buyout Of His Company To Stay Black Owned

[FSP]

Gotta salute that man. Not a lot of people would have turned that down. Nicca went from brilliant idiots to black excellence.

Shyt, I would of been off to a new venture for 500millie

Assuming that he owns 100% of his company.

I feel like I need this

That doctor tho

 

[KingJamesXXIII]

Damn. Insane. Hes a better man than I am for sure.

 

[Warren Moon]

Not to shyt on the parade but this is a lie. They offered to buy out his stake, however they already own like 60% of the company. He owns about 20% of his company, he'd net around 50-60 million nothing to sneaze out but black hedge fund group lies alot about black businesses to get views

 

[IShotTheSheriff]

Only if Bob Johnson could have done this and didn't sell BET.

tbh with the way they don't even want black people to BUY networks.. he probably got that pressure...

smh, i don't even know what's real, i'm just being real.

I agree but I can't wait till we get more businesses as a whole where one person selling their business means nothing. Whites because there are so many that have these types of businesses don't have folks saying wish he didn't sell unless it was a bad decision. That's where we need to be as a whole IMO.

I know the vc analyst that funded him. Been following this guy for years obviously bc hes making it

I never even knew this existed I'll definitely be shopping with bevel.

This may be a brilliant idea because as many gyms full of black men and places that I've shaved and as many conversations that I've had with brothers about shaving and razor bumps, this company has never been mentioned. A lot of us shave regularly and don't know about this. Imagine if he can get his product and brand as a household name in black homes here and abroad

I wonder does he have reps or anything pushing his product out on the streets

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Just for this I'm gonna try bevel.

**just went to the website and 29.95 a month is not bad

If he could get that down to about 20 dollars per month, he'll have half of the black global population on lock like @Malta said ... We want that close shave, but a lot of brothers like myself can't deal with the aftermath of a razor.... so clippers it will be

i need to start looking for small starts ups to join and offer my services in exchange for equity in the company.

 

[Prince Akeem]

With the right marketing he could probably quadruple the offer they gave him.

If they offered 500 million for it, its because they see billions in it in the future.

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

i know dude, and i will say he's being looked out for by one of the most powerful but also black friendly venture capitalists out here (horowitz has a black wife). glad tristan is getting some shine, but the valley needs to open to door to more than one 'negro' at a time

 

[TEH]

I'm sure that the reason really was that he knows that it could be worth billions.

I STAY at ATL Tech village. Just network there and you'll be good. Co Founder Match is a good set up as well

 

[RC-P90]

i only shave a few times a years and been using the other brands but im gonna switch to this...
