  • flour
  • textiles
  • real estate
  • oil
  • gas

“...some of the wealth gap appears to be attributable to differences in saving behavior. Understanding how people save--in particular, knowing whether certain people will be more vulnerable financially because of their saving choices--helps policymakers assess older Americans' financial preparedness for retirement and anticipate their economic well-being thereafter.” - SSA.Gov 



MAIN CAUSES OF WEALTH GAPS:

Lower Income| #Break This Curse

Poor Health | #Reverse This Curse 

Small Inheritances | #Change This narrative 


*intergenerational transfers*

🔑Real Estate (land) ownership

🔑Business Equity 


All Relate Down To

⬇️

🔑Savings Behavior



Economists suggest that differences in #savings behavior and rates of return on assets may be more important than ***intergenerational transfers*** in explaining the wealth gap.


Only a few studies have addressed how #savingbehavior might affect the accumulation of wealth. The Panel Study of Income Dynamics, reported that a large part of the racial difference in wealth accumulation can be attributed to differences in ***permanent income*** and ***portfolio composition***. 

⬇️

In an examination of ***wealth accumulation*** patterns in the first two waves of the Health and Retirement Study (HRS), found that minority groups have lower rates of:


🔑asset accumulation

🔑saving behavior. 


***WEALTH DETERMINATION FACTORS***:


🔐 Networth 

🔐 Pension Wealth 

🔐 Social Security Wealth

🔐 Housing Equity

🔐 Financial Assets

🔐 Stocks | Bonds | Savings


Understanding how people ***save***--in particular, knowing whether certain people are more vulnerable financially because of their saving choices--helps ->policymakers<-assess older Americans' ***financial preparedness*** for retirement and anticipate their ***economic well-being***thereafter -> 


Research on how people save is needed to help gauge the economic security of future, and prevent inequalities in wealth from being perpetuated.

WHY BLACK NPOs DONT GET FUNDED

Image
This was posted to a group (Blacks In Nonprofits) on Facebook  OBJECTIVE To activate wealth building within the Black Business world.  Inspired by someone who had financial questions. This won’t be a popular post. Some will be offended. The intended purpose is to enlighten. Hope we are still friends after this because I’m going to go into a deep vortex this morning and it will be a very turbulent ride. WHY BLACK NPOs DONT GET FUNDED: By Dr. Omai Kofi 5.14.2020 | 7:17 AM|CST 0) They do not STOP and REAL EYES to join forces and get the money TOGETHER , then go back and do what they were doing. <- this is the single most plague in the Black community and Black NPOs at this point in time. #ThisPointInTime, yes the past has afflicted us terribly, but AT THIS POINT IN TIME we can CHANGE that affliction into affluence in an hour! All those years of oppression can be flipped in 24 hours!  People refuse to work together due to RIGHTFUL : - Trust Issues (Anger)  - Egos (Pride) - Ignorance

$SNDL: “HIGH HOPES”

$SNDL TURNING POINT So after research, I’ve witnessed some synchronization and it is apparent.   “ Buy the rumor, sell the news .” - Wallstreet  Pendulum One March 11 2020 - June 23, 2020 .91.                           .91 (This was the initial decent from the Feb - Mar 9 $1.XX ranges)  Pendulum Two March 17, 2020 - July 28, 2020 .67.                            .63 (This was the internal decent from within the 90’s)  •————-> this means MARCH is good for us. Most don’t want to hear that , but it’s a sign that that 2nd week in March there will be a shift and a wave of parabolic riding 4 - 5 months. Synchronization One  July 2020 was a tell - tale of November 2020.  After the descent in July on 8/13 a .70 (trap) came into play which will occur this or next week (12/18/2020). The trap may be above .70 of course (speculating .90) Note: After this trap back on 8/13 there’s a . 24 drop by 8/17. This means EXPECT and watch for a drop this week and next week followed by a spike(s) up and
