What your trying to talk about is HNWI or UHNWI? Hedge funds, family offices, and exclusive IA deal with these people all day long. I have dealt with these people damn near all my adult career. Once a certain threshold is hit for an HNWI their spouse's education to a degree and finance doesn't matter. The majority marry college-educated spouses but that's where the commonality ends. Most turn into housewives or become a part of their spouse's business or manage their affairs in a certain capacity in some way.

Too lazy to pull up the litany of studies. Just look up studies done by various banks or family offices on HNWI or UHNWI individuals.

I’m a lawyer and dude doesn’t know what the fukk he’s talking about either. You can tell some of these cats aren’t in these circles.

I know partners who make over $1m a year and their wives have basic ass sociology degrees and are housewives/work regular ass jobs like hair stylist and shyt. I know one that’s a yoga instructor and the other is a middle school teacher. Once you make a certain amount of money her money/accolades doesn’t mean shyt to you. Because after a certain point, the lifestyle difference is negligible with or without her money.

You can also tell who has been around these circles by just noting their level of reading comprehension and understanding.

"Hey, I live in a nice middle-class suburb and my high five figures, low six figures male neighbors' wives are all NASA rocket scientists!" Sure, ok, but continue to leave out the fact those women have to work, because the family is living above their means. However, a single guy already making enough to cover both his and his potential partner's income is not marrying any one of his colleagues. It's literally why upper income mid-30s women bytch to every news outlet they can find they can't find men they want who want to marry them. :skip: I have a 1% mid-40s first cousin once removed in NYC who recently married a Korean artist (MFA in some type of art) who's around my age (a little more than ten years younger.) He wasn't about to spend the rest of his life getting nagged to an early death by a late-30s overweight single mom just because she's in finance too. :rudy:

What they do is play this semantics game with "education" by pretending all degrees are equal and equivalent. As you stated @Arbitrage!, pretty much the only commonality between a "high value man" and his wife is a college or graduate diploma. Normally, the wife's diploma is a BA in English or something, but her husband's is far more advanced. If said man meets his wife in university, it's much more likely she'll be average-looking, but if he stays single through his mid-30s, the fanciful notion women dream of and out-of-touch dudes here chirp about just does not occur.

Leadership isn't stymied by racism. Even in the threat of violence a leader is going to lead. We're talking about men here. God ordained leaders will lead and it will show that no man put them in that position. It will be the opposite most of the time. They will go through a lot of adversity because the spiritual enemy will be fighting them the whole way (Trying to kill them) because a true leader isn't taking credit for himself. He gives the credit to The One that set the order.

A lot of people can't see past their nose. People think what they see with their eyes is all there is. That is not the case. If you follow the order set by God you allow Heaven to come down to earth. If you do not, you get all of the Hell you want.

Please re-read what I said. I never said they don't have leadership skills. I mentioned they do, but it isn't reflected because racism forces black men into the background.

Boys are not men. Racism is not an excuse. If a man calls that an excuse he is full of fear. A man doesn't run from death. A man fights.

I disagree. I worked with young black boys when I volunteered at a museum. Regardless of background, they always impressed me with how innovative, keen, and intelligent they are. Black boys show leadership skills, but systemic racism forces them into the background as they get older.

This could be a matter of perspective.
I'm talking about in most Corporate Environments. I seldom run across black men calling the shots in Corporate America.

Yes. It’s under 4% and that included BW.


I would like to know if some black folks start their own business before entering the higher levels.

I have met some black men who did the corporate thing then branched into being independent. Although not enough go justify the abysmal numbers, I wonder if that is a trend among black folks in corporate America. Create your business and employ us rather than be alone at the top.
