"Will never pass mid level management or will stay stagnant" as opposed to "will never prosper".

This is a some grown-up spit. When I thought about it, the head honchos in tech are married even if they have to keep getting remarried and paying out divorce settlements. Larry Ellison of Oracle has been divorced 4 times. Even the dude on the house fixer show whose wife left him is scrambling to find another wife while the cameras are rolling. Facebook honcho got married quick. The dudes are the top are trying to stay hitched. King Bezos ain't exactly single either. and he just did a cash out with free shipping.

Are there even any networking groups dominated by single men, even in sports and entertainment? It may be having a lot of influence and money do not go with having random and unscreened broads around yours and other people bread mill.

It may not make sense to everyone, but this is real for those trying to get somewhere.

There is a bias against unmarried adults over thirty or so because our society still thinks of it as "refusing to settle down" or a sign of immaturity. That shyt is insidious.

When I got married, my insurance rates across the board went down as soon as I updated my info with my insurers. It's baked into the system.

The problem for black men AND women is that if you're educated, your pool of partners is small if you also hope to date solely within the race. It's less of a problem if you don't have those restrictions on yourself, but it's still a struggle. And since education is rapidly becoming the biggest datapoint to determine whether or not your marriage makes it and whether or not you're economically upwardly mobile, that's where a lot of the frustration on the parts of both black men and women come from.

And society is set up to exploit this. Imprison enough black men and you disrupt marriage opportunities for black men and women. Do that, and you fukk up their economic mobility. It's insidious.

This is the most dumbest shyt I've ever seen here there are plenty of successful men who was never married!!!:what::camby: FOH
I think, on a whole, the majority of wealthy men get married or have been married - so by virtue of that alone, he's right on a purely statistical basis.
Now is it *literally* necessary? No. But it does help, there is a lot of correlation, and a few obvious reasons why it helps.

Thought about this some more, for those that are single and live normal social lives, run businesses with employees, or are in corporate with a bunch of people reporting to them:

1) Do you always let randoms lay up in your house/condo or go out of town to avoid it?
If they come to your house, do you sweep your residence beforehand for documents and business/money stuff?

2) Are you comfortable taking business calls in front of women with no contractual obligation to protect your confidentiality or interests?

3) For the over-30 brehs - Do you avoid restaurants and places where people you work with or do business with go to, including eateries, shops, movie theatres etc. because you don't want them to see you with different broads and talk about your ho ass?

4) Can people like Future with paternity suits be relied on to keep their business and money details on the low while going in and out of court?

Bezos got divorced, lost some bills but just became the first to hit 200bill. GMB gang take no loses
:ufdup:
His wife was key to his initial success - she did a lot of early development and heavy-lifting. There is a good chance that if she hadn't done all of that - that he would not have been able to get Amazon off the ground while it was hemorrhaging millions.

I'm all for Black people being independent and owning businesses but if you ever think you'll never have a "boss" you don't know much about how business works. :francis:

And as Black people we only make up 13% of a white supremacist country, you'll have to sell to "dem folks" if you want to make real money. There was an article about how Black business owners had to hire white people:beli: to front their business in order to gain more customers.

When building your business means hiding that it's black-owned
In growing his patio-installation company, Duane Draughon erased all clues to the public that he, a black man, owned the business.

That meant no photos of him or his family on his website; giving potential customers the impression the business was part of a franchise and that he was a project manager, not the owner; and recruiting a white insurance company representative to conduct job interviews in assembling his white sales team.

The covert tactics helped him to bill more than $6 million over nine years to a white clientele he perceived as racist, as he often encountered potential customers who slammed doors in his face or refused to allow him in their homes, he said.

"I never said I wasn't the owner. If asked, I would admit it. But I always said I was either the project manager or a designer," he said.
Erasing Black Businesses: How Denying Who You Are Hurts the Black Economy
Starting and sustaining a successful business, regardless of race, is onerous. Most people either don’t attempt out of fear of failure or fail because…well, business start-ups are fail friendly. That failure gap widens for minority owned businesses.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, of the 2 million Black-owned businesses in the U.S., only about 107,000 of them have actual paid employees – that’s barely over 5%. The mere fact that Draughon and the other Black business owners mentioned in the article have a business where they can hire a support staff is a success and an anomaly. But they’re great white hoping their businesses and success.

Ultimately, the customer is your boss and they can cancel your ass in a heartbeat.
