I was reading the comments on this and it's so stupid that people are arguing because he married a white women. He's trying to give advice to African Americans on how to be successful FINANCIALLY, not who to marry. Someone even committed on why become a black billionaire, as if it's a law that you have to marry someone of a different race once you get wealthy. This was his choice. Instead of worrying about who he married maybe we should try to concentrate on how he made it, then once your a billionaire you can marry whoever you want.
This is the kind of brother that many black men could learn from rather than athletes and entertainers. I’m also in a STEM field. He has set a fine example for young black men to follow.
adiamondsmile how so? Rather than take note of this man’s tremendous accomplishments as a black American male you instead focus on where he sticks his penis?
How y'all about to discredit everything this man is trying to do because of who he married? He's a successful person of color who made it and isn't in entertainment or athletics, something that you barley get to see and need to see more of in the next generation of black youth. But guess ima be the only one listening while all y'all try be jay-z and Beyoncé 😒
Don't mind those idiots. They have no no critical thinking skills and a mind of their own. You can't help degenerates and hobos. You just watch them implode.
+ 0327math He is not a "successful person of color". He is a financially successful person, and he is a financially successful Black person. Say the word "Black". Its okay to be Black.
0327math boy rich people fuck up. Ask this clown to give up 2/3 of his fortune to help blacks that still suffering in the struggle. They have money to pull up a race but won’t do it. And y’all honor this clown. This is the reason the rich go straight to helll. You have more than enough ask what’s he shared not a fucking thing. You never find this fool only around other rich people who care nothing about the poor cause if they did they got way enough money to fix it. Think about it
Expected him to speak on the importance of black entrepreneurship but instead he encourages young black men to be okay with working for other people for less than their talents are worth.
Atrielex you dont understand what this dude is trying do here. well do you think it is easy to get off ya ass and create a business nope. he had to work for these people and i imagine suffer through to learn the importance of having your own business. it may not be that deep but i am sure he wants you to feel what he felt.

Magnorphieous The Great he doesnt put that money into our neighborhoods. Hes an american, he isnt a black billionaire. (Preserving the african american experience)...what the fuck does that even mean?
On the money! I have been telling my step-mom to get my younger brothers involved in STEM! It's important. Not only that it's the way of the future. I was an ART major, and if I could go back I would rather much invest into an engineering or applied sciences degree.
Isn't this the same guy that paid off the student loan debt of a Morehouse graduating class. For his efforts, he was criticized because he married a white woman that was a former playboy model. He's from Denver. Thats explains some of the reason he married that woman. I ain't knockin him... its his money... we need more black man willing to commit to pursuing the american dream. Black men really need this guy.
you missed it. "Science, Tech, Engineering and MATH". Not rap and basketball. That's all the "nuggets" you need. Oh and persistence. Called company for 6 months straight until they offered him internship. Niggas always want you to do EVERYTHING for them. Theirs your nuggets. Of course you will do nothing with them but bitch and moan.
It is possible. If you say it is... It starts with a thought. Then belief. Then the actual feeling of attainment... Next thing you know, you're literally living your dreams... Whatever you say you can do, you can. Whatever you say you can't do, you won't... Literally believe in yourself, and see yourself dwelling in the greatness that we all were born with. Nobody can stop you, but you... 💪🏾🧔🏾✌🏾
We need more black people like him that are willing to work hard and make something of themselves . Instead of not taking responsibility for ones own actions
Thanks for the advice but telling young black men to go get in debt and beg white daddy for a job is not the right way. We need business owners that can employ other black people.
With what Skills if Brothers don't get educated ???? Go into debt ???? where can you learn TECH for FREE ???? Business owners employ Blacks ???? WHO ???? You need more Black business owners and THEY have to have the education , RIGHT ? The future is TECH .....Brothers RUN from Math and Science and drop out of high school, how can a Black business owners in Tech hire these guys ? Tech jobs hire at 100,000 a year and even if you didn't get hired, you have the skills to build your own....so the debt wouldn't be a problem, it's just that Blacks get educated in the wrong fields and their jobs don't cut the mustard. STEP IT UP !!!!
Deion Hubbard our whole mindset around education is so backwards. Kids can go to school for free on full rides and you don't even have to play sports . I know because I went on one. There are schools that will even pay for your PhD. Entrepreneurship is great but to me nothing trumps a free education. And with China ramping up technology we are going to need all the engineers and scientists we can get black or white
Courtland Smith ...because they are spelled the same way but have 2 different meanings and pronunciations depending on the context. Kinda like the words "read" or "live."
Zer0 educate your damn seld my boy. No word in the english langauge that has ed at the end of a word is pronunced "ed" like a persons name EXCEPT FOR GIFTED . You dont say learn'ed , you dont say bak'ed , you dont say smash'ed. The words are pronounced learned ie: lernd , baked ie: baekd , smashed ie: smashd. The words that follow the "ie:" are spelled wrong on purpose to give you an idea of how the word should sound when reading it out loud. know yourself fam. i was in pre ap and ap all through out middle school and high school and graduated elementary through the G&T promgram.
You are the worst kind of idiot - the confident idiot. www.google.co.uk/search?q=learned+meaning&ie=&oe= Click the speaker icon and listen to the pronunciation. Go back to high school.
I hope he is married to a black woman because black wealth needs to stay within the black race. Don't just teach black men how to build wealth. Also each them to keep wealth within the black race. Black first.
JA J if he married a black women he would either be in jail or killed. Quit telling successful black men to marry black women. Black women weren't checking for him in his younger days and you know it.
STEM careers are rewarding....but i could have summed up his success with goldman sachs, anyone who hooks up with them is pretty much atleast a millionaire.
Show me a black billionaire and I'll show you someone who doesn't support his or her community. How how a black billionaire and our people still struggling? I ain't saying hand people money but use your resources to create jobs for black men and women instead of giving them advice.
Elijah Aytch why hire based on color instead of merit? Also, you say hire more black people like yourself, but do you know anything about finance, investing millions, or computer science? News flash most blacks known about about rappers than finance. Most black people know nothing about those fields, as only a small percentage of them go to school for it. Hence, that is what he’s aiming for more African Americans to pursue more wanted fields.

1. Investor Robert F. Smith is the richest black man in the country and richest black person in America 2. David Steward built his fortune running an IT service provider that counts Citi, Verizon, and the federal government as clients. He is the second richest black person in America and then Oprah.
Money ain't everything y'all. in fact, it's not even all that great. Making a good living is more than enough when you have some kind of spirituality to go with it. Riches at the cost of your soul isn't riches at all but the extreme end of poverty and emptiness. There is a hole in each man that can never be filled with material things.
See, I'm all for going out for fighting for your rights, but all this Black Lives Matter has almost acted as a step backwards for a lot black people. It's just a way for us to go back to saying "I can't succeed because I'm black and the system is against me." Yes there is racism, and yes the 'system' is messed up, but come on, how long are we gonna sit back and be victims? And I'm black (Nigerian) so don't @ me.
When she read what Robert Smith said she pronounced "learned" like "learn-Ed". She doesn't strike me as uneducated, I just want to know where they do that at. Where is she from?
There are isolated instances of racism but it is not a general widespread practice in America anymore. If there is a shunning of black folks, its not racism but because of fear or hate brought on by black public unruly attitude, criminal behavior, black racism or laziness. If this changed in the black community... Life would change for black people period.
Successful people don’t become that way overnight. What people see at a glance wealth, a great career, purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.

Nah boo, he’s over Oprah right now.. but I know why she said it that way, Saulgood
Nah fr she clearly hates when alpha males become wealthy
I'm not black I'm O.J.......
Riley Christian ok! 😩
Riley Christian 👏👏👏👏
Riley Christian .......Okay🤔

.....Ok!
Riley Christian Lmao! Hahaha
This is the kind of brother that many black men could learn from rather than athletes and entertainers. I’m also in a STEM field. He has set a fine example for young black men to follow.
adiamondsmile how so? Rather than take note of this man’s tremendous accomplishments as a black American male you instead focus on where he sticks his penis?
alanbev you mean like eve, Serena, Dina Ross, Miya Angelou, Tina sumpter, Megan markel , etc?

How y'all about to discredit everything this man is trying to do because of who he married? He's a successful person of color who made it and isn't in entertainment or athletics, something that you barley get to see and need to see more of in the next generation of black youth. But guess ima be the only one listening while all y'all try be jay-z and Beyoncé 😒
LET THE CHURCH SAY AAAAAMEN!!!!
Don't mind those idiots. They have no no critical thinking skills and a mind of their own. You can't help degenerates and hobos. You just watch them implode.

He is not a "successful person of color". He is a financially successful person, and he is a financially successful Black person. Say the word "Black". Its okay to be Black.
A white pornstar. I can’t take him seriously
0327math boy rich people fuck up. Ask this clown to give up 2/3 of his fortune to help blacks that still suffering in the struggle. They have money to pull up a race but won’t do it. And y’all honor this clown. This is the reason the rich go straight to helll. You have more than enough ask what’s he shared not a fucking thing. You never find this fool only around other rich people who care nothing about the poor cause if they did they got way enough money to fix it. Think about it
I only liked because I knew white boys would've disliked
And blacks too btw... racist
I'm a white man and I love to see people improve their lives regardless of skin colour🤷🏻♂️ I feel you may be painting with overly large brush strokes
Ray Milligan Ain’t read that. But I did check the dislikes and comments before I posted this TWO years ago.
He's even richer now proud of him
Expected him to speak on the importance of black entrepreneurship but instead he encourages young black men to be okay with working for other people for less than their talents are worth.
My thoughts exactly. Imagine the shit he went through and racist motherfuckers he had deal with everyday.
Atrielex you dont understand what this dude is trying do here. well do you think it is easy to get off ya ass and create a business nope. he had to work for these people and i imagine suffer through to learn the importance of having your own business. it may not be that deep but i am sure he wants you to feel what he felt.
Nate TheGreat So you're telling me the only way that he could've succeeded was by working for another person to learn, yet he's formally educated? Didn't he go to college to learn? Wake up.
Franky Baby Couldn't agree more.
Atrielex people like u who dont accomplish shit r the first to complain smh

How tf do you dislike this?
Racism.
Willie Murray ??????
Magnorphieous The Great Racism.. bc now a days, I hear more BLACK dudes differentiate between BLACK and WHITE. Oh..advices for BLACK YOUNG MEN..like wtf if it would say: for WHITE young men everybody be like "racist af" ..yall clownin on another level get tf outta here
Magnorphieous The Great he doesnt put that money into our neighborhoods. Hes an american, he isnt a black billionaire. (Preserving the african american experience)...what the fuck does that even mean?
you just press the dislike button....pretty simple...
On the money! I have been telling my step-mom to get my younger brothers involved in STEM! It's important. Not only that it's the way of the future. I was an ART major, and if I could go back I would rather much invest into an engineering or applied sciences degree.
Isn't this the same guy that paid off the student loan debt of a Morehouse graduating class. For his efforts, he was criticized because he married a white woman that was a former playboy model. He's from Denver. Thats explains some of the reason he married that woman.
I ain't knockin him... its his money... we need more black man willing to commit to pursuing the american dream. Black men really need this guy.
bra am also doing Computer Science
you missed it. "Science, Tech, Engineering and MATH". Not rap and basketball. That's all the "nuggets" you need. Oh and persistence. Called company for 6 months straight until they offered him internship. Niggas always want you to do EVERYTHING for them. Theirs your nuggets. Of course you will do nothing with them but bitch and moan.
It is possible. If you say it is... It starts with a thought. Then belief. Then the actual feeling of attainment... Next thing you know, you're literally living your dreams... Whatever you say you can do, you can. Whatever you say you can't do, you won't... Literally believe in yourself, and see yourself dwelling in the greatness that we all were born with. Nobody can stop you, but you...
💪🏾🧔🏾✌🏾
This chick is bad AF
We need more black people like him that are willing to work hard and make something of themselves . Instead of not taking responsibility for ones own actions
I have the best advice for young black men. Learn Arabic and Yiddish
Why?
Now thats true
Can he really relate to what today's poor young black men go through? Hell no.
Only mostly Africans will find this helpful because they actually care about education whereas aftican-American kids won’t.
That's complex hustle. Drop that knowledge.👠💄👜👓📊📑🗄️
Thanks for the advice but telling young black men to go get in debt and beg white daddy for a job is not the right way. We need business owners that can employ other black people.
With what Skills if Brothers don't get educated ???? Go into debt ???? where can you learn TECH for FREE ???? Business owners employ Blacks ???? WHO ???? You need more Black business owners and THEY have to have the education , RIGHT ? The future is TECH .....Brothers RUN from Math and Science and drop out of high school, how can a Black business owners in Tech hire these guys ? Tech jobs hire at 100,000 a year and even if you didn't get hired, you have the skills to build your own....so the debt wouldn't be a problem, it's just that Blacks get educated in the wrong fields and their jobs don't cut the mustard. STEP IT UP !!!!
There's no debt in stem degrees
u just said to employee other black ppl how is black business owners going to hire black engineers who dont hav a engineer degree dude think 😂
Deion Hubbard our whole mindset around education is so backwards. Kids can go to school for free on full rides and you don't even have to play sports . I know because I went on one. There are schools that will even pay for your PhD. Entrepreneurship is great but to me nothing trumps a free education. And with China ramping up technology we are going to need all the engineers and scientists we can get black or white
Nasir Atkinson you can’t practice engineering nor run an engineering firm without engineering degrees.
This video should go viral with millions of viewers
the host pronounced learned as "learn'ed". haha quite funny.
Courtland Smith ...because they are spelled the same way but have 2 different meanings and pronunciations depending on the context. Kinda like the words "read" or "live."
Tomika Kelly learn ED isnt the proper way to say thay word i promise.
Learn-ed is a word and that is how its pronounced. Educate yourself.
Zer0 educate your damn seld my boy. No word in the english langauge that has ed at the end of a word is pronunced "ed" like a persons name EXCEPT FOR GIFTED . You dont say learn'ed , you dont say bak'ed , you dont say smash'ed. The words are pronounced learned ie: lernd , baked ie: baekd , smashed ie: smashd. The words that follow the "ie:" are spelled wrong on purpose to give you an idea of how the word should sound when reading it out loud. know yourself fam. i was in pre ap and ap all through out middle school and high school and graduated elementary through the G&T promgram.
You are the worst kind of idiot - the confident idiot. www.google.co.uk/search?q=learned+meaning&ie=&oe= Click the speaker icon and listen to the pronunciation. Go back to high school.
I hope he is married to a black woman because black wealth needs to stay within the black race. Don't just teach black men how to build wealth. Also each them to keep wealth within the black race. Black first.
JA J if he married a black women he would either be in jail or killed. Quit telling successful black men to marry black women. Black women weren't checking for him in his younger days and you know it.
He's married to a white Playboy model
Him OJ and MJ same shit. If I need a role model, jay z or LBJ or Mohammed Ali just to name a few.

STEM careers are rewarding....but i could have summed up his success with goldman sachs, anyone who hooks up with them is pretty much atleast a millionaire.
A Wall Street puppet is telling people how to make money lol
A Wall Street puppet worth a couple of billion dollars ?
Dwayne Davis let them stay ignorant
FACT CHECK: Robert F. Smith is the richest African American and 163rd richest in America
He should help European-Americans too
Young black men, listen to this man not Snoop Dogg.
damn Azia
in other words STAY in school kids, teens, young adults etc...because knowledge (of any kind) is power and will (eventually) lead you to success.
Show me a black billionaire and I'll show you someone who doesn't support his or her community. How how a black billionaire and our people still struggling? I ain't saying hand people money but use your resources to create jobs for black men and women instead of giving them advice.
Elijah Aytch why hire based on color instead of merit? Also, you say hire more black people like yourself, but do you know anything about finance, investing millions, or computer science? News flash most blacks known about about rappers than finance. Most black people know nothing about those fields, as only a small percentage of them go to school for it. Hence, that is what he’s aiming for more African Americans to pursue more wanted fields.
Indeed.
Exactly he is the one that sets a great example for many young Black youths and not the rappers out there.
I’m a 27 year old black man, I sometimes see these rappers with the brand new Benz and all that money an they younger than me. An here I am washing white peoples dishes for $13 an hour
@@boni_traxton9436 you can know about the many more blacks who own the same stuff cars, mansions money but they do it in an appropriate way compared to some not all rappers negativity.
@@dgd865 I already know about them.....but how do I get there, I’m working my ass off at a legal job but it’s not enough. I want my own business I want all of that but how do I get the money to start? I don’t qualify for any bank loan and Florida doesn’t have black business resources
Dumb comment
why only men? I'm doing it as a woman. ^^
Of course sista!
Damn black men cant have shit huh? Black women big themselves up and support each other all the fucking time quit hating when black men try to do the same.
Because theres more Black women graduating from college than Black men
well I guess you have some issues then because I didn't mean it in a bad way. Sometimes can be funny you know. Also I wouldn't have used a smiley at the end if it was an "angry comment from an angry black women" :) everyone should be successful
maybe in the US.. but it wasn't that serious of a comment anyways
Love hearing great ideas from great men...
black sellouts. im good
Yahawahs 12 how is he a sellout tho ?
Justin Stone Preach!!!
Dwayne Davis none of that money is revitalizing our neighborhoods. He stop being black along time ago but wants to say he has a message for black youth. What was the message?
You're a sellout
Oro de David what are you doing to revitalize black neighborhoods?
Finally one that's not a sell out.
Y they gotta put "black billionaire" just say billionaire.
It says black billionaire because most black men aren’t successful when because usually us black men drop out of school to make short cuts to be money such as drug dealing,be coming a rapper and etc plus we need a good role model
I'll take peace of mind over $$ any day. shows how smart this guy is.
Incredible i luv my people.Unite, Build, Grow.

He a inspiration to alot of young minority's striving for better things
We are to "The Black Achievement Fund" join us visit online
I dont know if anybody caught this but his high school, East High School, is literally The Home of Disney's High School Musical 😂😂👌👌👌
I wouldn't take advice from someone who works alongside those whose industries perpetuate the circumstances that plague black youth. Thanks but no thanks.
I watched an interview with this guy and he was inspiring all the way thru doe
1. Investor Robert F. Smith is the richest black man in the country and richest black person in America
2. David Steward built his fortune running an IT service provider that counts Citi, Verizon, and the federal government as clients. He is the second richest black person in America and then Oprah.
This is motivating.
The key is: He doesn't think that he is oppressed. "You are what you think you are." I'm black.
I went to this high school. This school has a lot of history
Subbed!!
salute this brother
Just got into The university of Michigan going for chemical engineering. Melanin people! Let's get it!

I hate that term “African American”. We are black Americans
You hate your aftican ancestry don’t you
Good stuff!!
all Complex ppl do the same shit with their hands. Its like they go to Complex University to learn what to do in front of the camera. I blame Jinx
They always forget Bob Johnson owner of B.E.T. already was a mega millionaire sold B.E.T for $3 Billion dollars with shares of viacom
3 billionaire less expenses and capital investment less divorce- now maybe under a billion
Fallbackdigital not anymore. His wife took a hefty chunk of his wealth when they divorced.
Complex presenters seem to have really cool names
One thing they leaving out is that he came from money....he grew up in wealthy black suburbs
That helps.
Black is a color code, and Africa and America are two continents. Who created these terms and applied them as labels attributable to people?
I can see this one went over a lot of heads.
Fantastic advice i will follow it maybe by next year i will be a billioner too
Money ain't everything y'all. in fact, it's not even all that great. Making a good living is more than enough when you have some kind of spirituality to go with it. Riches at the cost of your soul isn't riches at all but the extreme end of poverty and emptiness. There is a hole in each man that can never be filled with material things.
advice: get into stem, finance. Create platform/business to build up the community
He's actually richer than Oprah
Google "The Black Achievement Fund"
We don't need anymore rappers, entertainers
The richest BLACK MAN in the world is ALIKO DANGOTE of NIGERIA who is worth over 20 BILLION - US DOLLARS!
See, I'm all for going out for fighting for your rights, but all this Black Lives Matter has almost acted as a step backwards for a lot black people. It's just a way for us to go back to saying "I can't succeed because I'm black and the system is against me." Yes there is racism, and yes the 'system' is messed up, but come on, how long are we gonna sit back and be victims?
And I'm black (Nigerian) so don't @ me.
There’s a lot of rich black people but they just don’t go public with their financial status. I know I wouldn’t...
Sounds good Robert Smith should do BLACK MEDIA.
First time here.
Inspiring!!!!!
I'm working on an associates in Networking Technology and Industrial Electronic Technology. This is difficult AF
Oh, and by the way, don't cheat on your taxes like I did.
He has that Jewish connection just like Oprah Winfrey.
More Black boys pursuing STEM careers
Is this chick actually wearing a one-piece swimming suit and playing it like it's cool? Dang!
When she read what Robert Smith said she pronounced "learned" like "learn-Ed". She doesn't strike me as uneducated, I just want to know where they do that at. Where is she from?
People are getting mad because the speaker wasn't black, it's not even that serious. What are my people's priorities coming too? Lol.
There are isolated instances of racism but it is not a general widespread practice in America anymore. If there is a shunning of black folks, its not racism but because of fear or hate brought on by black public unruly attitude, criminal behavior, black racism or laziness. If this changed in the black community... Life would change for black people period.
