<K1>I mean the average standard of living. From my understanding the average African in Europe, or the average Caribbean does not have a higher standard of living than the average African American. The richest black people are mostly from America; yeah there are some Nigerians and people from other oil rich nations who are super rich because their family are in the Oil business, but that’s old money; most American rich, not only blacks but of any race is new money meaning first generation rich. That is a testament of opportunity. If you are of humble means, you have more chances of making it big in America than anywhere else.
According to the Brookings institute, if you live in America and you
*Graduate High School
*Don’t get married or have Children until after age 21
*Have a Job (any job)
It doesn’t matter if you’re black, white, or whatever; If you accomplish those 3 things, you have only a 2% chance of being in poverty, and you have a 74% chance of being middle class. Of all the people I know of who live in poverty, none of them have accomplished those 3 things.
Most of what I know of other countries is from what I’ve heard from various people who lived there; but from what I’ve been told it seems there is more opportunity for financial advancement in America than anywhere else.<K1>
Their minds are made up don't try to confuse them with facts.
