Single mothers are way poorer than I thought.

[Captain Crunch]

I refuse to believe single black women only have a net worth of $5K. Sounds like some bullshyt.

It's not crazy, considering there are multiple sources that indicate that 1/3 of Black folk have 0 or negative net worth

I'd be happy to link you to the info, but it shouldn't shock us, considering 85-90% of Black people descend from chattel slaves and sharecroppers.

 

[Eddy Gordo]

40% of blk women are childless.

Only 4 out of 22 million blk women are single mothers. And roughly 1/2 of those are divorcees. 68% of single moms got multiple baby daddies.

Multiple men keep going back to the same trash ass women b/c they chasing easy p*ssy.

It’s all about a phat ass and who will let u nutt in them easily with blk men in this equation.

with 2 million blk women engaging in this lifestyle it’s all about either being stupid enough to believe Rodney when he said he loved u just so he could hit it raw, or thinking u can “trap a nikka” and finesse a family just cuz he fukking u.

At either end it’s about low self esteem and using sex as a means to an end.[/QUOTE]
Money will compensate for both of these

I’m not sure if just wealth can fix centuries of social conditioning. If it could, NBA players wouldn’t still get caught up with trifling baby mama situations.

Sure it’s a start but wealth is a language. To use it you have to learn it. Throwing money at people without financial literacy who are also psychologically fragile and you’ll just see us giving it back to other communities. We can’t buy our way out of low self-esteem.
We need to have better control over our image.

Need his ass beat

She part of the problem b/c she too nice to people and allows people to take advantage of her.

Its street culture/poverty culture. The shyt is too engrained at this point. There is no fixing the shyt. Your gonna have to start small and build a separate subculture.

Lot of hoe babble in here

 

[Entropy Fan]

Its complicated...

The simple answer is for women to hold off on having sex and children until a man proves with his actions that he is willing and, most importantly, able to protect and provide for her and any children they might have.

The problem is that women can and often do have sex with men out of their league. If women had to wait to have sex to weed out the men who just want a nut or men who have nothing going for them or no future ambitions, a lot of women would be disappointed at the actual level of men they attract for a long term commitment.

The reality is, a lot of women would rather be a booty call to a baller or have a handsome bum play househusband than to seek out the relationships on their level

Well you’d need mother’s and older women in general to let them know where they stand from day 1. Like they used to do. Now even bottom barrel women want a handsome successful man. Even a man a notch above them isn’t good enough.

 

[HellRell804]

Women women women

It takes two to tango and it takes two to raise a child.


You do realize that more men are probably dead beats because they expect women to make all the decisions when it comes to a child? Because they put all the responsibility on a woman once they impregnate her?

Once both parties realize that it takes two to make a child and two to raise a child than maybe some parties will stop thinking that only one is responsible for taking care of a child. That goes for both women and men.


There’s no pointing fingers at one parent... it’s takes both.

you’ll probably come back with well if women chose better and etc etc... but a child is innocent.. to take it out on how you feel a mother should act on a child you created is selfish.

That's really what u got out of what I said?

How is it blaming women to tell them they should have some form of commitment before engaging in sex.

Its plenty of deadbeat, bums, and degenerates out here but no one is forcing women to fukk and procreate with them.

a man that is willing to court you and "date" you knowing he won't get the ass until you're married, that's your level. But like I said a lot of women won't like the reality of that situation.

It's like the difference between someone letting you borrow a hellcat on weekends and sharing it with 3 or 4 other people and owning a dodge dart.

That hellcat will turn heads and you can post clout pictures on social media but it's not yours vs a dart that no one will look at twice and is a reliable boring old car.

 

[mag357]

damn...those stats are wild

Too wild..

I dnt believe this shyt for one second..

The numbers are too wild both ways,
Almost like a child made them up.

 

[King Poetic]

shyt as been down hill since the late 70s for the black family structure

but a lot of u nikkas are scared of the truth and will continue on and on to blame others

we went from like 22% in the 70s where kids was raised in a single parent household to well over 70% and nikkas keep raising the numbers

how can u be a single man with 5 kids with 5 different women and u never been married and not even think about the damage u doing in the community...

Women how can u continue to lay down with no responsibility having Tyrone or Eddie knowing damn well this fool isn’t responsible and not looking to raise a family and be happy
.. even worse the nikkas u fuk with have 2 or more kids with other chicks and u still lay down with dude

our biggest problem in the community today is mental and believing we don’t need each other

 

[Scott Larock]

I knew shyt was bad, but never saw any exact numbers on it.

Black marriage, stable 2 parent households is our best bet! i disagree with the conclusion.

A COLLEGE DEGREE AND MARRIAGE FAILS TO YIELD SIGNIFICANT WEALTH GAINS FOR BLACK WOMEN

The story of the American Dream proclaims that opportunities for economic success are open to anyone with pure grit, gumption, and merit regardless of race. A college education is viewed as a key driver of upward mobility and the primary vehicle to eradicate racial differences in economic success. In reality, while a college degree may result in some improvement in life outcomes, it does little to undo the massive differences in wealth across race.

-Single black women without a bachelor’s degree ages 40–59 have a net worth range of just $1,000 to $2,000.

INCREASED AGE AND EDUCATION DO NOT NECESSARILY TRANSLATE INTO WEALTH FOR BLACK WOMEN

Single young women (under age 40), regardless of race and education, are beginning their adult years with very little if any wealth. Single white women with a college education begin to build more wealth in their 40s, but single white women who lack a college degree have low wealth levels at all ages. On the other hand, married white women, especially those with college degrees, are able to build wealth across age groups.

Black women are the most disadvantaged as they show negative median wealth at different ages regardless of marital status. Single black women in their 20s without a degree have zero wealth and the typical single black women with a college degree is $11,000 in debt. Married black women in their 30s and with college degrees are $20,000 in debt. One reason for the wealth gap among college educated single women is that black women have the highest level of student debt and struggle to pay off the debt in early adulthood despite working full-time. Between 2009 and 2012, white women who graduated in the 2007–08 school year paid off an average of 33 percent of their student debt, while black women in that group managed to pay off less than 10 percent of their student debt.


As a result, black women are less able to build wealth by saving for retirement or purchasing a home. Further, when we examine women’s wealth near retirement (ages 60+), we see that white women are better positioned for stable retirement. This is especially the case if they are married and college educated, since they have nearly two times the wealth of black married women with bachelor’s degrees. Married white women without a college degree have nearly four times the wealth of their black counterparts. Older, single black women with a college degree have a mere $11,000 in wealth, which is the lowest of all groups in that age range and is in stark contrast to the $384,400 in median wealth among single white women with a bachelor’s degree.

CONCLUSION Samuel DuBois Cook Center on Social Equity and Insight Center for Community Economic Development

The data presented here shows us that neither marriage, a college education nor a lifetime of work provides the answer for equalizing opportunity between black and white women. Black and white women are positioned differently from one another largely because white women benefit more from wealth being passed down from their families. Intergenerational transfers like financing a college education, providing help with the down payment on a house and other gifts to seed asset accumulation are central sources of wealth building. Given past and present barriers that have kept black families from building wealth, private action and market forces alone cannot be expected to address wide-scale racial wealth inequality that is gendered.

Yeah, I've been poor for a good amount of time, finally turning it around at a old age so I'll just say a few things, truth but don't take offense.

If you didn't know how bad single mothers had it, you probably a suburan dude from a 2 parent household, no offense but it's been known, any nikka on the street or any dude who hugs the blocks knows the single mother struggle.

Cities have been ran and built on single mother labor most likely, a large part of south florida is a low income single mother, immigrant threshold that relies on chicks with kids who can't find time to go back to school and raise children and usually have to do one or the other. I worked for years as a security guard, salary about 10-12 most of the employees are black females with kids and no degrees, this ain't nothing new..

Cacs been doing this for years, targeting girls who fukk up and put them in bullshyt jobs, 20 years gone by 20 cent raise a year... it's been known.

We got 10 dollar a hour jobs that got full health and dental and 401, who are these jobs designed for? Keep it 100

I see why some women hate broke dudes and I can't blame them at all when you look at the system, remember DeSantis basically doesn't wanna shut down Florida with the infection, why do you think that is?

They got it hard, very hard, it's important for them to move right at a early age cuz the system is designed to trap them, I will not lie on this.

You got whole companies structured like this, a bunch of 10-15 dollar a hour females, answering phones, or doing whatever...

The best way to avoid putting yourself in a situation is to not have kids or date someone with a stable career. If the woman makes 15 an hour, and finds a man that makes 15 an hour, then their household income would be 60k a year.


I know there are hardworking black men in cities with a job as a janitor, bus driver, mechanic, UPS driver, construction worker, etc.
Some of them don’t want that. There was a viral video of 2 women saying they’d rather take a street dude who makes 25k over a banker who makes 500k working a 9-5. You’re destined to be a struggling single mother if you have a mentality like that.

 

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

Breh stop simping

Its brothas out here losing they license and going to jail for this bs.


Any woman putting a black man on child support is suspect to me.

Its alot of women who put him on cs out of bitterness and disdain cause he doesnt want her no more.

Its too many cases where he didnt have to pay child support till 8 or 10 etc straight bittneress.

500 dollars is alot of money for the avg black man to be giving away especially when in some cases the chick spending it on hair and nails not necessity for the kids.

I just feel the system needs to be tweeked its a joke right now

I don't think the system was created to spite black men. And regardless of whether it's right or wrong, it is what it is. Crying on a messageboard or deflecting blame won't fix it. As a man, if you don't want to get hit up for child support or want kids, don't ejaculate in a woman without protection. It's that simple All this talk of "wElL a wOmAn ShOuLdN'T lEt mE nUt In HeR tHeN" talk... nikkas sound like 8 year olds. Do you have no control over who you fukk? Be a man and take responsibility for your actions. Because if you don't, the state will

So men have no control or say whatsoever in who we ejaculate into?

It's only complicated if you create a logical framework to absolve men of all personal responsibility. Men and women are equally responsible for the creation of new life.

 

[HellRell804]

So men have no control or say whatsoever in who we ejaculate into?

I'm not saying that at all, the reality is that most of the women are being impregnated by the same trifling men. Most men you would consider bums, deadbeats or degenerates have children with multiple women. I'm saying women have to avoid those men.

A smart, focused and ambitious man (husband material) doesn't have that problem because all the headaches and drama would slow him down mentally and financially. He might have 1 child from a previous relationship gone wrong, but he usually won't make that mistake again.

I'm talking about the men that will get a woman pregnant and she'll be making "I'm single" posts before the baby is born. The type of man to have multiple children the same age.
