Based on a seven year study of 1,000 of the wealthiest African Americans, The Wealth Choice offers a trove of sound and surprising advice about climbing the economic ladder, even when the odds seem stacked against you. Readers will learn about how business leaders, entrepreneurs, and celebrities like Bob Johnson, Spike Lee, L. A. Reid, Herman Cain, T. D. Jakes and Tyrese Gibson found their paths to wealth; what they did or didn't learn about money early on; what they had to sacrifice to get to the top; and the role of discipline in managing their success. Through these stories, which include men and women at every stage of life and in every industry, Dennis Kimbro shows readers how to:
    · Commit to lifelong learning
    · Craft goals that match your passion
    · Make short-term sacrifices for long-term gain
    · Take calculated risks when opportunity presents itself

    I know B.S when I hear it. I know a scheme when I hear it. I know a get rich scheme when I hear it.
    This is neither of the three. This guy is the real deal. And it;s a powerful message he's delivering.
    It's about wealth people. That's all that matter in this country. Anyone talking something else is just wasting your time.
    Money is all that matters.

    I am so sorry for the three people that so far clicked on the thumb down for this video. It was so unnecessary to do and was done with a jealous heart and empty spirit based on the dynamic and life-changing content of the powerfully motivating video. Anyone who clicks on the thumb down shows why some people are rich and some are poor. Especially in their own mind.

    Great book. Seeing Black millionaires who came from circumstances worse than most leaves you with no excuses to not go out there and make it happen.

    I wrote a book title Succeed beyond Adversity Too. I am right in line with you brother Dennis. Not just knowledge but applied knowledge is the key to success. You are right, it takes courage and faith more than anything. We as black people have to stop hating on each other and support each other. We have to stop listening to our negative friends and surround ourselves with positive people. If you hang around losers, you will become a loser. So, hang around winners. People can build you up or tear you down.(comradd.com)

    This is a good video and it is so true. I too am so sorry for the people that want to give a thumbs down. But you all are the reason and example why Jesus said the poor you will have with you always. It is because of the fact a lot of people will not have the faith to believe that they can be and make their situation better. It does not matter what you say the fact of the matter is everything that this brother is saying is written in the word of God. You are where you are by choice and not by chance. The fact of the matter is stop looking at what they are successful in but look at the blue print, steps and the principles, that is what he is pointing out. Change, success, victory or defeat takes place first in the mind that is why Paul said be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Weather you believe it or not, why not just stop being that negative one that shows up every time someone trys to make a difference in or do something good. Yes I know everything is not for everyone, but do we have to speak it?

    • @myellis100
      @myellis100 9 років тому

      resid7 Yes, my friend you are exactly correct. Take for example that God spoke about good gold in Genesis 2:12; even before He mentions the Prophecy of the Messiah in Genesis 3:15; Let that sink in for a moment.

    If Black wealth was so easy as a culture we all would be doing better. Dennis told us what the majority of black folks area of excellence is 1. Buying Name Brand Shoes/Sneakers or Use Government Services or Watching TV 2. We Do That For FREE. I missed his advice on how to use the money from your minimum wage job to invest in your business and not pay your rent or lights and water. Can someone tell me how he said what to do specifically? I serve in church every week. I've been serving for over 30 years in church. A lot of black people feel like if they don't show up nobody would care. That's why mental health/suicide is so high in the black community.

    • @michaelabrakson2919

    • @vincem2759
      @vincem2759 9 років тому +1

      Michael Abrakson Hey, I saw your comment. How much are you tithing? the standard is 10% of income however you should work on that. Do what I did. 1.) Pay yourself first. And by pay I mean take a certain percentage of each check and save it. Not place it aside I mean literally "spend" it on your self and place it in a savings account. Then take the remainder of your check and pay bills on time. After that take a percentage of what is left over and apply it towards your debts. Whats left is used for spending and free time. You then should try your best to cut cost whenever possible. Don't eat out, cook your food, don't waste gas and track down every purchase you make. Cut the cost of everything. And over the course take extra work on the side. This will increase your yield each month. Hope that helps!

    • @julesmcdaniel9443
      @julesmcdaniel9443 9 років тому +1

      Take it 2 the lord in prayer. Ask him. Acknowledge him n all ur ways. If ur man enough 2 pay your tithes, then ur man enough 2 go 2 the source 4 a direct answer about your situation. Everybody's circumstances are different. He will lead, guide and direct ur situation as long as ur heart is n the right place. Go 2 the source 4 the spiritual and also apply principles such as Kimbro and many others 4 the natural. We don't receive cause we don't ask so ask ask away. God knows I do LOL. Wish u all the best.

    • @myellis100
      @myellis100 9 років тому

      Michael Abrakson Good afternoon Brother Michael Abrakson: I've been saved for over 30 years and I believe that what Vince Meadows said is totally correct and on point. As a matter of fact there's a scripture in Deuteronomy 14:22-26; that backs up what he stated. God said in these verses when and if tithing becomes a real challenge take care of yourself and your responsibilities. Please don't allow all of the incorrect teaching on Tithes & Offerings to hinder you my Brother from going forward in all of your personal visions, goals, and dreams. Most preachers are not teaching Tithes & Offerings in a righteous and balanced manner. Peace & Prosperity to you my Brother.

    Everybody can't be a millionaire, we need a solid black middle class, a black economy, with black owned small businesses, schools, banks, etc. This guy is using celebrities to motivate people, basically its like a pro athlete telling kids they can make it to the NBA if they work hard, knowing good and well theirs many variable's that affects a person outcome.

    • @ijwilker
      @ijwilker 8 років тому +8

      Mike Lowrey millionaire is the new middle class. If you dig deeper, he's not talking about athletes or entertainers at all. They are references that he uses but most are business people. There are 35k black millionaires in the US. Only 1700 ppl (all races) in the NFL and 450 NBA players. People talk about Jordan but they don't talk about Robert F Smith.
