There are more than enough of us here to get something poppin and a lot of us have experitise in thingss, but the major issue with us black people is trust. So many things could be done. Imagine if we had a coli real estate flipping business, where we all threw $500 and someone trust worthy would flip and empower us all.....but alas :wow:

BP pays a nice dividend so does AAPL, XOM & JPM

i havent been too happy with NKEs performance since i bought it and their dividend is :ld:

Can I offer a real assessment? I would say the first couple of questions should be:

1- how much are people willing to invest? I think the number should be fair, so as no not make people feel ripped off if they start. I would start at $20, maximum $100 per person

2- Selection strategy. Each person has an equal vote, with a weighted average based on their contribution. Invest more and your vote has more weight. Say if we had a hundred people in. We could pick a list of investments and vote on it. Go from there.

3. Contributions most likely need to be sent via pay pal. If we are talking about stock/bond/otc/forex investments then somebody has to designated as the "dealer". Trust is big on that part.

4. How do you get your money/investment back? I guess it could be sent back via PayPal or some mechanism but that needs to be decided.

I personally would love to have some Coli day trader fund be set up. Get risky and aggressive. Do options trading and things that have good risk reward to it. I can afford to lose a $100, especially if the pay off could be a few grand :blessed:


Bottom line is I'm down but I'm not trying to talk about it. I'm trying to be about it. What say you?

besides stuff I hear in the news, I have been researching companies for products I like or use regularly. For instance when I'm thinking about a new phone, I'll check out apple (however, their dividend is under 2%). if I hit up costco, I'll check their stock to see if I might wanna invest.

I fukked up a couple weeks ago. I was gonna buy the energy stock exelon and they have gone up 4 points since then. should have pulled the trigger, plus their yield is over 3% as well.

the yield on verizon is currently at 4.49% so you're at least gonna get that total annually in dividends which is pretty sweet. I bought some verizon at like $47 and its around $52 right now.

ford has a yield of 4.56%. they have only gone up 40 cents since I bought, but that's fine. as long as they are staying the same or increasing, I'm getting my 4.56% return regardless.

Already in an investment group but this is a good idea ONLY if there is 100% transparency from everyone involved with it. That means personal information like government names, addresses, faces,communication, and most importantly TRUST in someone else handling your money and that person having the discipline to not vanish with it or rip you off.

I'm 4 pages deep and didn't see many suggestions to actually start a business together :snoop: here are some tangible things we could do together for very little money.

#1 we could all invest in @Blacksands video game idea to get him the boost he needs to make his idea really something real

#2 We could start a "black investment club" where we make small loans to businesses who need the loans in exchange for percentages of profits or payback of the loan with interest

#3 we could start an MLM. Granted, this isn't the BEST option, but if we started an MLM, started posting pictures online and using that as a way to recruit one of those big people in an MLM, we could all sit pretty until we get shutdown :mjlol: :yeshrug: white people do it over and over and make a killing, why shouldn't we?

#4 we could start an alternative media channel online. We have enough people here that we definitely have the capabilities for writing, video journalism, etc. and we already do this in various forums. We could get a plan together (those who invest) and build a media channel that represents our view and eventually get sponsors and sell it to a larger company (Viacomm for example) or keep it independent :salute:

#5 (and this one is the MOST controversial) we start a business aimed specifically at white people in order to get the white dollar into the black community. Asians have hair care stores and food stores in our neighborhoods and we flock to those and give our dollar to different communities, why shouldn't we aim for a different communities dollar to bring into our community? My plan would be (again this is controversial) we start a clothing business that is directly for white people where we sell Trump branded memorabilia in rebel flag print, anti Hillary messages, stupid south sayings like "This is OUR country" etc. We really walk the line between acceptable and controversial. This would do two things: 1 we would make money because we know that hillbillies would buy the shyt and 2 we would be directly undermining them by selling it to them. If we ran an online store it would be little investment (the website, photoshop, printer for the shirts etc., marketing) and we know these types of people aren't going anywhere any time soon

Thoughts :jbhmm:
