The Dr Boyce Breakdown

Today I speak with Jeff Lightsy Jr about the reports that Deion Sanders is leaving Jackson State 

I spoke to Kanye West for several hours during the 2022 All Black National Convention.  He's not an all around bad person, but there were some psychiatric issues that my therapist wife identified that should probably be addressed.    As much of an asset as Ye could be for the black community, I am sad about the fact that we may end up watching him self destruct.

Providence Rhade island just offered the most ridiculous reparations program in history.  The city is even allowing white residents to apply for the funds.   Mayor Jorge Elorza has offered a whopping $10 million dollars to the city's residents to correct for 400 years and trillions of dollars of theft, trauma and exploitation.    What's even more suprising about this program is that Elorza and his "brilliant" team of advisors want to make these reparations available to white people.    Today on The Black Financial Channel, our goal is to understand how allegedly intelligent and "woke" people can come up with such a ridiculous reparations plan and why black people must gain the power necessary to demand adequate reparations for what's been done to us in this country.   Dr Boyce Watkins is a Finance PhD and founder of The Black Business School.  To learn more, please visit http://BoyceWatkins.com

Today we talk about the $200,000 per month child support agreement between Kim Kardashian and Kanye West.  The discussion goes deeper than Kim and Ye, however and focuses on the meaning of child support, how black families are affected by it and asks, "What's the value of a parent's time?" 

Today, I speak to students from The Black Stock Market Program.  If you'd like to join us for Stock Market Tuesdays, please visit TheBlackStockMarketProgram.com.  You can also send me your questions, get access to years of content, and also receive a list of the stocks I believe in. 

Today on The Black Financial Channel, I spoke about 10 jobs that allow you to earn $100,000 per year and still work from home.  When I was in college, working from home was a dream.  Technology has created a world where we can become millionaires without leaving the front porch.  Personally, I think that's pretty cool. 

Truth is that while this list technically contains 10 jobs, there are really only five.  Also, I noticed some themes among these positions that I spoke about today on the episode, which you can listen to here. 

The other thing that is important to remember is that building black wealth doesn't always mean you have to run a business.  More importantly, it means creating options for yourself, which typically involves the OWNERSHIP of assets that appreciate in value.  I have quite a few students in The Black Business School who work a 9-to-5 job and have become quite wealthy through consistent acquisition of stocks, real estate, crypto and other investments. 

Wealth is connected to ownership and there's no shame in keeping your job if it makes you happy.  But remember:  There's a big difference between working for someone because you WANT TO vs working for someone because you HAVE TO.   That's what freedom is all about.
