If BET show this stuff I will start watching again. Our community don’t need another twerk video or Rap free style beef! This is powerful this is the real black culture.
Thanks for highlighting these two pioneers. We black people need to see that we can be successful outside of sports and acting or music. I hope this story inspires a new generation of black financial entrepreneurs, and hopefully they look particularly at Mr Brown's example. He married a black woman, and in so doing, is keeping the wealth in the black community.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Its positive for him.but its not impacting his generation or the x generation of black men.Because they always been unfortunately risk adversed.And thats why poverty networth is a serious problem widespread amongest them.They just didnt believed in the stockmarket investing.I never heard anybody in my family speak about it or in my neighborhood.But being a outlier i always been curious about it so i pursued early on.

You know how old this story? Blacks of his generation even my generation are risk aversed.And thats why they never really believed to invest in the stockmark or wealth in it.
I don’t think Ive watched any BET content in two decades. Well done piece! You should really think about releasing an extended version, surely there’s more.
Inspirational. A true testament of will power and destiny. One man from privilege, another from humble beginnings. “Every man is trying to live up to something or make up for mistakes”
Absolutely beautiful, these men get it! I was so happy to hear a great report from the community that has been defying stereotypes and quietly moving forward, black Americans. See all we can be! Very, very good stuff, educating the children build schools and actually teaching! I hope more billionaires will follow these men’s excellent example. To many millionaires get their blessings and do not understand what has been given to them and why.
These two men are phenomenal 🎉 what they have bulit & what they have already done for those kids is something un heard off. They are soo lucky..I hope they all have prosperous futures.
I appreciate Mr. Brown and his fellow Advisers. My Son is mixed and I need to have him join me in the Family Business one day. I will have to have my son watch you guys. Thank you 🙏 JS
I would love to see more of these segments, longer segments. It's all so very inspiring. I too strive to be financially competent and as I learn, I've begun teaching my daughter, friends and family.
Both gentlemen seem able to affect positive changes in their communities. I hope for continued success for both of them and their companies, and that they continue to inspire many.

My husband and I have invested in Ariel mutual funds since 1994. We are now retired. We still have an automatic investment into Ariel mutual fund every month. Our son has had an Ariel fund since 2018 with monthly automatic contributions.
My parents taught me I can be whatever I want in this world! This video needs to be sent to the woke black people who cry that the white man is holding them back! So they can stop embarrassing those of Us black Americans who growing and building!
You are so right! They always hire one token black person! 😂 but look Clarence Thomas is now taking away the affirmative action that got him where he is now. Now thats woke!
This is really inspiring. So proud of their great achievements and contributions to their communities. I believed with hard work, we all can achieve something phenomenal in life, inspite of difficulty, some to a greater extent. ❤🎉
Yes, yes, yes. I don’t even watch BET now because of the low level programming. If they show more progressive positive videos I will definitely watch again. Our community needs more of this. Thanks for airing this video!

What a wonderful!!! success stories of John Rodgers and Eddie C. Brown. There upbringing were total opposite they have one thing in common that they wanted to be financially independent. They started their investment firm and never looked back. I love the fact that these 2 extraordinary black american businessmen are giving back to the black communities not hispanics commmunities. We need more black american success stories like John Rodgers and Eddie C. Brown.
This is good stuff right here, but I don’t understand why we have to single ourselves out.. Why say “Black Wealth”??? Why not just say “Growing Wealth” and let the thumbnail speak for it self. There’s already 3 well dressed black man on it.
Black Wall Street. aerial investments black enterprises and international influencers. Continue to se the homes of the affluent rich and famous developers.
Good morning Vladimir trust all is well and hoping that we are continuing with international media. This is Carletta Goodrich man and I am currently building Infrastructures internationally from Infagel. Thank you for this report on building Black wealth
That's what I was trying to do for the black community. We need help in education in our community about growing and accumulated wealth and not living paycheck to paycheck.
I watched a documentary about the Greenwood Race Massacre a few years ago. It was tragic. I hope to see communities like Greenwood rise up from those ashes, all across the U.S. Everyone excelling will only make this country strong.
Having multiple streams of income is a game changer for financial stability. Relying solely on a job may not provide enough financial security due to high rates of tax It is important to explore additional investment opportunities to surpass one's expectation.
If BET show this stuff I will start watching again. Our community don’t need another twerk video or Rap free style beef! This is powerful this is the real black culture.
Look for BLACK OWNED media. Roland Martin is black owned.
Well stated!!

Thanks for highlighting these two pioneers. We black people need to see that we can be successful outside of sports and acting or music.
I hope this story inspires a new generation of black financial entrepreneurs, and hopefully they look particularly at Mr Brown's example. He married a black woman, and in so doing, is keeping the wealth in the black community.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
"Stay on the path and make footprints for others to follow." Wow❤
Wealth is hidden, riches are seen.
The rich holler and the wealthy whisper.

The WORST thing in business is to "give money" to those who haven't EARNED IT! It DE-INCENTIVISES. It makes them EXPECT MONEY for goofing off!
This is an inspiring story, thanks for sharing!

I haven’t heard a single Fortune 500 CEO or new tech founder be called a “tycoon” in the last 5 years…. The irony just writes itself
Just wonderful! Thank you.
