Slavery was not a blessing to the slaves

But it was a Godsend to all the black people born in America today

Without slavery most African-Americans would be African-Africans instead

So the potato famine and the Holocaust were godsends too then huh?

You dont read so good

The Potato Famine was not a blessing to the Irish who starved to death

Nor was the Holocaust to the Jews who died in the camps

If Blacks didn’t sell Blacks into slavery there would never have been a problem in the first place. Up to 200 years ago white and ethnic slavery was as common as the sun rising and setting each day. Simply a major part of human nature, conquer, rape, pillage, then subjugate the vanquished into slavery. Every empire and kingdom depended upon slavery to exist. Don’t forget the English subjugated white Irish, Scottish, and Dutch into servitude as penal and indentured servants when America and Australia were founded.

I wonder if this is a huge issue in Africa among blacks since they captured their slaves, and sold them?

You only see race to use it as a crutch for your failures. "Poor me, everybody's against me, so I can't succeed at anything". Everybody's against you because you are a jerk who offends everybody you come into contact with.

SBB can be wealthy if he wants it badly enough, but he can’t do it by being “Good Time Charlie” on Saturday night. In essence, you have to be a miser long enough to save money that can be invested carefully into something that can make more money—and you must be willing to take a loss if it doesn’t work out.

The idea that you will inherit wealth just because your ancestors had it is mostly pie‑in‑the‑sky. In fact, most wealthy families lose their wealth: about 70% lose it by the second generation, and around 90% lose it by the third. Even if you manage to leave wealth to your children, there’s no guarantee they will manage it well enough to pass it on. Most people value a good time more than maintaining the money they have.

Not only do you have to work hard to earn enough money to invest, you also have to make sure you don’t spend it. One of the best ways to do that is to have a spouse who is on the same page—someone who shares your goals of building wealth at whatever level you’re starting from. Someone willing to eat beans and rice, raise a garden in the backyard, buy clothes at the second‑hand store, and forgo cable television and modern luxuries if necessary.

After you’re married, make sure you don’t have children for several years, until you’re certain she’s still on the same page. If she’s not, divorce her and find someone who is, because a partner who isn’t committed to the same financial goals can become an anchor that drags you down. It can be done, but you have to be fanatically dedicated.

The same is true in business: your business can succeed only if you are a slave to it. Otherwise, you’re better off being satisfied with being poor.

Most of this is BS.

Since slavery still exists in Africa, I’d bet it isn’t.

Only you would see it that way. I don’t agree with the word miser, but to change your financial situation, you have to be willing to live below your means. I went from dirt poor to comfortable middle class by living below my means, avoiding large amounts of debt and working hard.

There is much truth to this. Divorces also go far in killing wealth.

So, be honest, do you think you would be better off, socially and financially if you lived in South Africa, Zimbabwe, Kenya, Mali, Liberia or Somalia? The fact that you don’t live there is because SOME of your ancestors suffered in slavery. I deliberately said SOME of your ancestors because almost all non-immigrant black Americans have whites in their family trees.

This I believe is why most never get much wealth.
1. Goals not set
2. Timeline not set to obtain funds
3. Lack of skills to plan

Many people, such as people I know, will plan to spend, plan to take vacations, but not plan to gain wealth.

Its 100% correct as you well know

Without slavery you would be a goat herder in Africa instead of an ungrateful reverse racist in America

If his ancestors escaped poverty and disease long enough for him to be born in the first place. All it takes is for ONE of them to have succumbed to malaria or starvation, and he’d never be here.

If he wasn’t so full of hate and envy, he’d realize that….be grateful for having been born in America….and bend down and kiss the ground.

I would appreciate it if you could point out the parts that are BS. I’m always interested in improving my thinking whenever the opportunity presents itself. I realize that I’ve used exaggeration to make a point. For example, once you establish your business and it becomes successful, you can ease up. You can hire people to handle the day‑to‑day work, but you can never totally relax. You still have to keep an eye on the business even if you’re not managing it on a daily basis.

And if a comfortable middle‑class lifestyle is all you’re aiming for, then all you need to do is gain the skills that allow you to earn that level of income. But getting those skills may require quite a bit of dedication as well. Even then, if you don’t manage debt wisely you can end up in what I call “debt poverty.” As the Bible says, “The borrower is servant to the lender.
