Black Excellence: Billionaire Robert F Smith to pay entire US class's student debt

The Lonious Monk said:
It's nothing complicated. I think a billion dollars is too much money to be held by any one person. At some point, accruing wealth just becomes a vanity thing. Not only that but it's dangerous in this country because the more money you have the more you can unfairly rig our system in your favor. You don't think people make billions solely because they work hard and are just that smart do you? Money makes money.

What's the cutoff though? Is it a billion? Or is $500 million much different?

Its important not to be short sighted tho. How many people out here "helping people of color" in public eye, but fucking them over behind the scenes. A lot of that going on because people will do anything for money, but wanna be praised and accepted by the public.

Thats why i have mixed feelings bout dude. How you act and who you surround yourself with can tell a lot about who you are. I dont throw around the words, "coon" or "white washed" lightly like some other people on here, but it wouldnt surprised me if he fit into this category. I'm kinda sure a black man in his 50s that heads a VC firm, that married a typical white hollywood trophy wife in her 20's, has some Cosbyesque views about black people, that he frequently shares and agrees with to his wealthy white friends.

500 mil or a bil isn't much different to the person who has it because both numbers are too much for any one person or even family line to spend if the are even somewhat responsible. However, a 500 million dollar difference is huge if you're talking about investing it into something that would help those who are less fortunate.

I can't give you a cutoff because anything I say would be arbitrary. However, I'm pretty sure it would be easy for some economist to determine how much money would be sufficient to give a person an over the top lifestyle should they want it and still have something to pass on to future generations. I'm betting that number is far less than 1 bill. Probably something like 250 mil.
 
Sooooo
If someone is getting credit for something but it's not really what it is but it kinda is.......y'all call fake?

Charly and a buncha other niggas are clout chasing and Lauren chasing. Charley ain't helping no one. This guy is.
This mans family always gotta hear how everyone fucked with him but no one hardly seen all these niggas fuck with him.

Give it a bit more time...I got a lot to say and might get banned from the site for it.....but niggas are full of shit when it comes to nipsey.
Same with a lot if broads.

But this is going somewhere.

I want to know why niggas got a problem with dude if he's doing right by the community.

You don't see it like that but it really is.

Why help niggas who gonna shit on you or fund anything wrong to downplay the hell but then prop up another person as a genius when they didn't have a hand in the very thing people are celebrating?

By letting shit go as not that deep allows for fake shit to fester and spread.
 
Just to be clear, we're assholes if someone wealthy donates money and we point out that person isnt as generous as they seem? Annnd we're also hating ass niggas if its a person of color, I'm just making sure I interpreted it right.
