"Are Minorities Afraid of Money?" - inspired by @MsBizness


So this lovely young lady mentioned this on my Twitter timeline, and I thought "BRILLIANT!!!"  I've been internally complaining about Black People in America not being about shit when it comes to business, FOR THE LONGEST.  I never vocalized it because I never wanted to put out that kind of energy.  Yet this young lady packaged the thought so eloquent when she quoted...
"Minorities in general are scared of money"
So I couldn't help but to be drawn to the statement.  What I assume she was getting at was the overall and ambition and aspiration of people of color in Western culture.  Ethnic people in America tend to sell themselves short and limit themselves to minimal goal setting and misappropriating their priorities; many times in reverse, whereas the things that should be most important are the least.  They react timidly and sheepishly to serious and shrewd business practice because in their minds, doing business constitutes being friends.  This results in unreliability and irresponsibility.  Often times never branching out, expanding, or diversifying and dealing within their own minimal circles, achieving the most minimal results................lemme' ease up though.

I do believe the "scared" that she speaks is them not necessarily feeling up to par and at the caliber of the rest of the premiere business world.  THEY SIMPLY DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING BUSINESS WITH WHITE PEOPLE.  Yeah, I said it.

So what's the solution???  Duuuuuuuuh start mingling with white people.  Yeah, there is a cultural barrier!  Yeah, there isn't much social relation!  SO THE FUCK WHAT!!!  Get over it.  I'm tired of it personally.  When will you be?
