People having kids before they acquire wealth is backwards thinking

[Mr Hate Coffee]

Whats the number then sir?

Share it with us?

When is a person “wealthy” enough to have kids?

$50k (and no debt) in Atlanta. Whatever that is in other regions.

 

[010101]

folks are destitute financially genetically physically mentally

& the burden falls on the babies

[reasonable_doubter]

black men should be thinking about kids and marriage when we're 35+.......

 

[kuts]

Chasing wealth is generally not a strong motivating factor for folks until they have children.

 

[I'm Blackman]

People having kids they can't afford is backwards thinking.

You would think this would be common sense.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

you been crying nonstop because people neg/name call and disagree with your opinion fam. chill the fukk out.

ya'll are only looking at one angle of the problems with economic inequality in this country.

We are having a discussion no? What does name calling bring to it? I could have went all the way in on dude but I took the high road. Now I'm crying?

And maybe I'm looking only one angle. Have you considered that maybe YOU are only looking at one angle? If you have it all figured out why bother discussing anything with anybody?

 

[Mr.Plan B]

The government needs to give its citizens a monthly living wage at $2000 a month and raise the minimum wage to $22 an hour.

Also, the government needs to put restrictions on how much rent a landlord can charge.

nikka that would crash the whole economy the fukk.

When a black man thinks about raw sex, he should be thinking about kids. Money is NOT our issue when it comes to children. At all.

Those are the type of people I really don't feel sorry for. I see so many people who live paycheck to paycheck but then bring kids into their bullshyt. People straight up don't the basic stuff to take care of yourself but then want to add a baby in it. Like I see a lot of parents who don't have a car or a steady place to stay. The parent and the kid are getting rides for most of their lives. Lots of people too comfortable depending on other people for everything. If your car breaks down you should have enough for a rental, if your child breaks their glasses you should have money to replace them, if they get sick you have to have enough money to send them to the hospital. If your food stamps, WIC or child support don't come you as a parent should still be able to survive. But too many people don't.

Like the first chick that got pregnant by Beyonce's dad. Went on a media tour crying about how she was getting evicted because Matthew's child support got lowered. She was taking pics crying and looking stress with her son eating a sandwhich. Its stupid to be struggling and then have kids.

actually I'm an anarchist, but I wouldn't have a problem with socialism that's practices more of direct-democracy aspect as oppose to simply relying on state issued resources.

it's funny yall bougie/uptight brehs complain about poverty, lack of education, rent increases, student loans, yet ya'll turn ya'll nose up at the idea of a model that would be beneficial to you

but most people wise to the game realize that the only reason you're against is because other people would also benefit. people ya'll some how decided don't "deserve it".

Well said. The only reason there are so few have and so many have nots is because the game is rigged.

Folks still out here playing stupid and don't realize there are not enough high paying jobs for everyone no matter if everyone had a skill.

That is the whole point of capitalism is someone has to be at the bottom and taken advantage of for the folks at the top to thrive.

This shyt ain't rocket science. Either these snobby folks are dumb, naive or plan old selfish and egotistical.

 

[Originalman]

Also are we forgetting the middle and upper class who constantly fukk over money and beg for handouts.

We gonna forget all them middle class folks begging Obama to save their jobs and houses in 2008. Folks always talking about handouts for the poor. But ignore the middle class, upper class and corporate handouts that go on each and everyday.

Jokers sound like racist sports fans who bytch cause a black player asked for a few million. But ignore the team owner that is anal raping the city for a new stadium.

No one can ever truly afford kids. No matter how much you make financial adjustments will have to be made. Besides you can have all the money in the world but it means nothing if you can’t provide the mental and emotional stability. That’s worth way more than anything money can provide. You look at most fukked up families and guarantee it’s not due to a lack of money but a lack of love

B b but I'm,horny and I want to have company.

 

[African Peasant]

Young, strong, broke, and lacking of true wisdom. Yeah, like that worked for previous generations of black folk

Did I say broke ?

What is true wisdom ? The average person should be mature enough to raise kids in his late 20's early 30's. You don't need to be Socrates.

 

[African Peasant]

So many focused on the wording of "wealth" completely missing the point of the thread...

-can you afford diapers, food, typical care and needs for your family without stressing if your card will decline or borrowing money
-can you afford a stable roof over your families head without stressing rent
-can you afford stable transportation/ bills paid on time
-can you you save a little after all this is paid for, especially for emergencies

if you can have a good credit score (bills paid on time, little to no debt), provide for your family not worrying about when the next check is coming and put away money for the future of your family

thats wealth for most people

yall caught up on the wording of the title, but missing the point. Only "1%" truly reach wealth, thats why its called the 1%... 99% wont make it.. but that doesnt mean that the 99% cant also maintain a good life style with smarter choices.

No one wants to be held accountable for their actions throughout their life. The word "responsible" is almost phased out of the world.

What you describe is not being wealthy. It's just having enough to live decently.

OP is talking about acquiring wealth. Without any further indications, it means more than what you typed. Tell OP to rephrase his thread.
