Why successful black men are a$$holes

[Reality]

Interesting looking back at what a 24 year old me was saying in this thread.

Now that I'm in my 30s, i'll still stand by what I said w/ some modifications. If you're young (<25) and black and on your way to being financially successful & stable, it is a little tougher to get an attractive black woman instead of an equally attractive white or latina woman. Not impossible, just tougher. It's a lot more work in terms of managing image, swag, whatever you want to call it. It is what it is. Our women have to be honest about this shyt.

I'll say this though, when I got out of the south and moved to LA shyt was different. Unless they're in the scene themselves black women out in LA were a lot more chill and just open to a regular dude who had his shyt together. The ones I was dating were GOAT status in terms of attractivness to low maintenance...they just wanted to come through, smoke some weed, watch some Netflix fukk, grab some dinner and repeat. And this was ranging from girls who grew up in Inglewood to Ladera Heights to the Valley. All just chill, low maintenance, and didn't expect me to be swagged out. Ultimately I wound up w/ a half black half latina chick from the valley.

I was making $170K+ by the time I moved out there vs. like $70K when first responding in this thread, but I don't think it was the driver because I spent my money on travel and living spaces not clothing and cars. I also wasn't breaking anything off for these women. The women I was messing with were also mid-20s vs. early 20s.

I do wonder if it's gotten better or worse for this next generation, though...the ones who are like 21-25 right now. It seems like the pressure to be on some thug shyt to pull isn't as great but the need for clout is like 2x as important. Hopefully this Corona shyt helps w/ that.

Clout is much more important in 2020.

Bruh let's take being black out of it, do you understand how hard it is to be successful without having been born into it? How much shyt you gotta go through and deal with? Long hours, short nights, sacrificing weekends? Being broke or taking a step back to make a come up in the long run?

Then throw in all the roadblocks that black men have to go through in this cracker ass country bruh... Way I look at it, if you make it talk yo fukking shyt bruh.

I believe a lot of successful black men are a$$holes because when they were broke or average most black women never gave them the time of day and looked at them in disgust. But now that they're successful these same women come in flocks. They didn't want to build a future with these men, they wanted the finished product. It's kind of like payback for black men and plus black men have way more options when they're successful.

I’m an a$$hole because I can be

I don’t do it for women

This shyt hit me the other night. Just how things had to bend the right ways for me to be where I am as a black man.

I grew up comfortably middle / upper middle class (in a low cost of living area) but have been on a steeper trajectory than my parents in terms of income. My pops makes 6-figs and I outearned him and my mom a year out of grad school. My pops got a break and broke into a STEM career because one of his high school teachers put him onto a program to get black men into engineering and the sciences. He got to focus on school because my grandpa was a descendent of sharecroppers, said fukk that life, participated in illegitimate enterprise for a little bit, and flipped that money into owning a legit biz. My pops is really good at math and says my grandfather was better and would have been running a hedge fund or PE fund if he had the opportunity.

Anyway, I thought of all the breaks and chances that had to be taken to get where I am now and was like . I'm a fukking miracle.

Most successful Black men had to have a lot of stuff bend our way.

Makes you really appreciate things. That’s why I never stunt on other Black men. A different bend here and there and my story would be totally different.

So if a woman wants more than this, she’s the problem?
