In this episode of the Blackstalgia podcast, Kelby tackles a few somewhat sensitive matters. First the development of NFT's in association with blockchain technology. We won't pretend to know what it is, so we're learning together.
How valuable are digital collectible items? Jack from Twitter and Square is selling his first tweet for $2.5 million. Who is willing to purchase letters printed in a digital world? What is the value of this purchase? The item barely exists. Is blockchain technology a conversation for this decade and a memory for the next?The 2nd topic has to deal with blogger @Akademiks words about how Jay-Z is conducting business. When a person in business waves the "black business" flag, does that compel you to spend your money on their products? How do Jay-Z's multi-million dollar business ventures create pathways for other black people to follow in his footstep? Will it be through alcohol and weed brands? Rap? Art? Content? Is Akademiks speaking facts or fiction?
3rd topic. The stimulus checks are on the way, but something seems a little bit off this third time around. The media praises the sharp decline of poverty and yet there is an ascension of the opposite. Kelby explains the story of a cryptically evolved territory in Los Angeles that appears decades away from what it once was. Will the benefits of the stimulus check be short term or will there be a larger price to pay down the line?4th topic. The idea of generational wealth in a valueless society. The current trend is to build generational wealth seconds after forming an LLC. What is the key to success in the business world? Understanding our value in organizations has taken a back seat. "Pay me more, I work less" is the motto in today's society. Where do place our value? What are we doing to be the one every firm is bidding for? What are you doing to make your price go up? Let's talk.
Lastly, Meghan Markle is doing all the talking about the royal family. Is she doing a little too much talking?Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
