The key to financial independence and economic advantage is saving and sound money management. The black community is economically disadvantaged because they don't have any self control.

It is not any one elses fault if you lack the ability to hold onto a PORTION of the money you receive. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH YOU RECEIVE, IT'S NOT WHAT YOU EARN IT'S WHAT YOU KEEP.
Many people don't have the ability to keep a jar full of change in their home. Before long they have cleaned it out. No one can make you save, no one can stop you from going to the bank and depleting it.

If we are to blame anyone it is our parents who did not model saving so that this habit is instilled into their children.
If you can't save ten percent of your salary every year, the seeds of greatness are not in you.


THAT'S ON YOU, NOT THE WHITE RACE.
