Crypto seems to be all the rage but I typically encourage black people to do velocity banking to pay off their homes first before playing around with major investing.

Just beware of the crypto that's specifically targeting us, they don't mind pulling the rug on us that's why I'm staying away from Saitama they targeting black people way too hard with that which makes it an obvious rug pull in the future.

Because the other type of investment is too complicated to get into.

We like get rich quick schemes with a low difficulty threshold/curve.
true...there's all types of scams out there....Mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, credit default swaps, ninja loans...all types of bullshyt white collar hustles....way too complicated and they are the way banks come up

we tend to fall for crypto currency, pyramid schemes and lotto tickets :yeshrug:

Objectively speaking for as risky as an investment as it is, it's something you can invest in with no real barriers to you. There isn't the amount of gatekeeping like there is in the traditional stock market. Also unfortunately social media has helped instigate this magical thinking in Black men and women where you have this fantasy of financially going from zero to rich as oppose to just building up step by step like previous generations.
