Do You and you will inspire.
Bitching towards people to get their shit together will inspire nothing. Ask any bitching ass Parent, Preacher or Teacher about that. People don't respond as well to someone looking down (or trying to) on them telling them "you should you should be doing what I EXPECT you to do". Take your expectations and wipe your ass with em just don't put em on me though. I'm doing me you should do you and if we all can accept that we like to move differently maybe we can get some peace and progression around this bitch.

Im always down to network, but what bothers me is everyone that said they were down to build some shit, or said they would put me in a situation that would allow me to capitalize on my talents jerked me. Alot of shit talking, it seems like 95% ppl just "talk the talk", because they wanna look important amongst their peers in their social circle. If you hate bullshitters(like myself), its a good idea to cut them off(family/friends)...You'll be able to sleep at night
I have to agree with this brother Dawg. I somewhat feel your pain. However, I must always first be a living example for my kids. I make sure that they see me as the hero, the top bread winner, the successful businessman and is short, the man. No matter what it is or the issue, if I don’t like it I make sure I do something about it. I make sure that my kids see me getting the job every time. No excuse is the best excuse and that is what I teach them so I must live it first.
I tried to network with the fam on this board and from that I have done business with 11 cats and today we are friends as well as business associates. Most cats on this board have clowned maybe 99% of the business shit I have posted. However, it was the other 1% that I focused on and was all that mattered to me. I had to remember I am on a PORN board. What do you think you are going to get from here?
So I would suggest you change whatever it is you do not like in your life… Make every change that you see fit to be made in your life… Focus on making your life what you want it to be and you will not have the time to worry or wonder about the rest.
I’m praying for you the very best! Stay up my brother!

Truth.
also alot of folks look at networking as "let me talk to the type people that i can learn something from or get something out of"
really you need to figure out what you have to offer and start there. its a two way street and you get when you give. dont just run around looking for people to "put you on".

Precisely!! People forget this, always looking for free work or how they can get into my pocket.
Real talk!
Agreed 100%, but when you actually do have something to offer... well refer to freshnclean's post I quoted.
"Black Networking" will quickly turn into a quagmire.
There is a lot of potential financial power just the cats that are doing something in their lives from this board alone. There are tons of ways to make large amounts of money. I only want to focus businesses that I can start up, buy and maybe sell later for a profit but I am open to most ideas. Hit a guy up. Let’s start here… 
part of networking...or part of just business in general is learning how to weed through the bullshit. sometimes you may get fooled by someone who you think is official but it shouldnt happen too often.
its not just black... some of the biggest hustlers, bullshitters, wack business people and scam artists i've come across have been white americans.
they are the best at it because a cleancut whiteboy has an instant layer of trust/ credibility with most folks that black people have to work years to gain.
I head ya... But we have to find a way to tune them out and they will go away like most dumb shit do when everyone else is about business.
Bump...
I agree with weeding out the bullshit, but my point is that there is too much of it when it comes to Black networking. IMO it's like a 85% bullshit to 15% legit leads percentage. I've had to find more creative ways to network.
I agree, jews are the biggest scammers on the face of the planet. However you are more likely to make headway with them than you are the Black business professional, because while jews are slimy, if they see an opportunity to make a profit they'll jump at it. From my experience Blacks get too emotional or allow their emotions to cloud their decisions, which is why we are always a week late and a grand short.

I don’t know how you are able to cut off all contact with the bull shitters in your life. I have learned over the years to just be busy and only make time for the things I see important to me and once I see someone as a bull shitter… I no longer have the time for that person.
Yea...I agree with the emotional part. Cultural thing.
Simply because we can't survive. Black wall street was destroyed.
America doesn't want black owned anything.......
Look at what MJ had to do just to become owner of the bobcats.....if all the millionares in the nba put enough money together they could create a black owned team....but you think that will be allowed by the powers...no
Bill Cosby tried to buy NBC......he had the dam money but they said no. I think that's one of the reason his son was killed.

Not like that. I do business with blacks and I'm friends with blacks. I have no issue with blacks because I'm black. I don't do much business with them because there are not many where I am now. I only delta with blacks in VA. I tried to work with 5 blacks since I moved to IL and all of them tried to rip me off. I did not mean I did not fuck with blacks. It was more me agreeing with its because of where I'm located.
The thread was deleted, but case and point, Faggot Willie Pete's tirade about Tariq asking for donations to help fund his documentary.
I feel you. However, be very careful what you say about that group of people.
Say about what group of people? Jews? Man FUCK KIKES. I've posted on several occasions my dealing with them. Anytime niggas talking this "Blacks are the worst customers ever" I have to check them and let them know that it gets worse than they can possibly imagine when dealing with jews and other asswipes from the middle east.
What scares white America is not a nigga with a Gun
But a nigga with a library card
stop using that platitude. list the last 10 books you've read or the last time you went to the library.
I would sell you niggas up shits creek.
I'm in the library now finishing up a presentation for my English class.
My brother, I feel ya! I’m only coming from how I was raised and the changes I have made in my life… Say anything about that group of people is just one of them and my life is just 100 times better.
It is not easy Bruh… But I know there are some serious brothers in Illinois that are all about the business of making money. You just have to weed out the bull shitters!
I too must admit that I struggle with the brothers and sisters networking arena. From exp many only turn out to be social bullshit meetings without merit to further business or commerce.
To speak business one must be in business and understand what drives capitalism. Meeting up as a collective group just to exchange numbers and to get your next job lead doesn't speak business....it makes you look like a wholesaler or jobber leaning towards your next quick career.

I'm doing that but in the mean time i'll work with who is about their business. No matter the color. If I come in contact with some blacks that are about their business I'll be down to work with them.
I hear ya Bruh... Stay up!
You will get that every time… Weeding is what you do… But that is a Bruh trying to learn the ropes he or she may be in need of a mentor and not know how to go about doing business.
they must not network with YOU. All I do is network with Black folk, and nor niggas. Others too, but I don't have that stigma in my life.
