How your parents taught you to be bad with money
In this powerful and thought-provoking video, Dr. Boyce Watkins, a Finance PhD, breaks down the real reasons why Black wealth struggles to grow across generations. While many people talk about “generational curses,” Dr. Watkins challenges that narrative by explaining the economic and psychological patterns that truly drive financial outcomes in Black families.Drawing on key theories such as behavioral finance, intergenerational wealth transfer, and social learning theory, this video explains how financial habits, beliefs, and decision-making patterns are often passed down from parents to children. Instead of mystical explanations, Dr. Watkins shows how learned financial behaviors, limited access to capital, and systemic barriers create cycles that look like curses but are actually patterns that can be broken.You’ll also learn how concepts like wealth mindset, financial literacy, and family financial culture play a critical role in shaping long-term outcomes. Dr. Watkins explains how children inherit not just money—or the lack of it—but also spending habits, investing behaviors, risk tolerance, and attitudes toward wealth.If you’ve ever wondered why some families build generational wealth while others struggle to maintain it, this video provides clear, actionable insight. More importantly, it empowers you to break negative cycles and begin building a legacy of economic power.Watch now to learn how to replace so-called “curses” with strategy, discipline, and generational wealth-building principles.

Michael B Jordan's confrontation says a lot about life investing
This situation says a lot more than just celebrity drama—it reveals how money, relationships, and life choices collide in ways most people never talk about.In this video, we break down the viral moment where Michael B. Jordan responds after being called “corny,” and why a woman could be upset about something as major as being given a house. On the surface, it sounds crazy. But when you look deeper, it’s really about expectations, communication, financial alignment, and emotional intelligence.This ties directly into wealth building and investing because your financial decisions are never just about money—they’re about values. Buying a home, investing in assets, or building wealth for your family all require alignment with the people around you. If your partner doesn’t share your vision, even a blessing can feel like a burden.Too many people think financial success is just about making money. It’s not. It’s about making the right decisions, with the right people, at the right time. One bad relationship or poor communication around money can destroy years of financial progress. On the other hand, strong financial partnership can accelerate wealth, stability, and generational success.In this breakdown, we connect the dots between relationships, emotional reactions, and financial outcomes—because smart investing starts with smart thinking and smart life choices.Dr. Boyce Watkins is a Finance PhD and founder of The Black Business School, where he has helped millions of people learn to invest and build family wealth. He is a frequent media contributor and host of popular podcasts focused on financial literacy, Black economic empowerment, and intelligent investing.

What does this mean for Black ownership, Black media, and the future of Black economic power in entertainment?Tyler Perry has built one of the most powerful independent media empires in history, creating billions of dollars in value through films, television, and his historic Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta. Meanwhile, BET Plus, a streaming platform built around Black storytelling, has become a key player in digital entertainment for Black audiences. But as major corporations consolidate power, many are asking an important question: Will Black media remain independent, or will it continue to be absorbed by larger corporate conglomerates like Paramount Global?In this video, Dr. Boyce Watkins analyzes the business strategy behind Paramount’s media consolidation, the economics of streaming platforms, the importance of Black ownership in Hollywood, and what this could mean for the long-term future of Black entertainment and Black wealth creation. If Tyler Perry’s empire becomes more closely tied to Paramount, is this a smart business move—or another example of how large corporations swallow independent success?This conversation goes deeper than celebrity headlines. It’s about power, ownership, intellectual property, and who controls the economic future of Black culture in media and entertainment.Dr. Boyce Watkins is a Finance PhD, economist, and the founder of The Black Business School, where millions of students have learned how to build wealth through stock market investing, entrepreneurship, real estate, and financial literacy.
