The coli is showing its ass out here man :wow:

I like what was said about generational wealth a whopping 36% vs 7%....what a gap.

And then you had that black live in a country where whites are more likely going to have connections, etc...it puts thibgs in perspective. where did you get the article?

I don't see much of a wealth gap where I live. Sometimes I feel these articles are written more for whites than for black people.

I don't fault blacks from being more cautious with their money...they don't have a big safety ney. And many wealthy are not that removed from poverty.

What do you suggest to bridge the gap?
Stop bullshytting and being distracted by things you already know period. That's one of the beat things a lot of people could do to improve their situation in life. Don't believe me write down how you spend your days and see how much time is spent on garbage that can't help your situation and that will show why most people are where they are

Anbody know where I can get my hands on a couple hundred gallons of Premium Deckover that fell off a truck? :mjpls: Spring is on the way
Real Estate is very safe. The problem is if you want to get ahead, you're going to nees tolose that aversion to risk. I have some stocks that I play with periodically. But the gains from those activities are once again tunneled back into real estate. When the next down turn comes, best believe Im doubling down again. My shot was the damn Tesla stock but I sold at $100.

Easier said than done. Unconditioning yourself is extremely hard.

I tell posters the simple rule my grandmother told me about investing. Buy when everyone is starving and sell when they have forgotten what hunger feels like.

Yeah Tesla was good to a lot of people and stocks can make you regular people yearly salary very quickly. This isn't the norm but shyt like this still happens often enough. A couple of months ago my cousin made 20k in a few days on google options. It takes time but it can definitely be profitable if you learn what your doing.
