Dallas Wants More Than Financial Jobs. It Wants a Piece of the Market Itself

Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are making major physical investments. JPMorgan Chase already operates at substantial scale. NYSE Texas has opened its Dallas headquarters. Nasdaq has established a Texas exchange presence. TXSE began trading in July and is preparing to host primary listings.
Energy Transfer gives the newest entrant its first large corporate test.
For Black professionals and entrepreneurs, the practical implications will depend on what develops around these institutions over time: which specialties expand, which schools build relevant programs, which local firms become vendors, who advances into leadership, and whether professionals can move among employers without leaving North Texas.

Dallas Is Building the Next Economy. Who Is Building the Talent to Match?

What happens after Black professionals enter these industries and accumulate expertise, relationships and capital?

Some will become senior executives. Some may invest. Others will start companies, purchase businesses, mentor younger professionals or become customers and advisers to Black-owned firms. Many will simply build successful careers and provide greater economic security for their families.

All of those outcomes matter.

Educated Sistas…Stop Seeking Validation from these Money Loving Corporations

Yet again, I read in Wall Street Journal and Forbes magazine about educated sistas complaining about diversity and inclusion in the workplace lol…oh boy… I did a video about this topic earlier this year, where other sistas were front and center in the biggest business magazines in the world, whining about not having a safe space to succeed in the workplace…oh my…really people lol? I even read where one PhD sista complained that because she has a PhD in social studies or something like that, that she should be making the same money as a white guy with a PhD in STEM. Are you kidding me? Stop that lol.

Workplace Racism-Ready to Quit and Start a Business? WAIT! Talk 2 Me First

Her child was like, under 5 yrs old or something like that. Her friends and family encouraged her to save up some money, quit, and start her own business. She hesitated for some time, but after something at work was the last straw, she took that leap of faith and started her own business. I think it was either beauty or fashion related, I forget. And some of you know how I feel about those passion fields lol. But she seemed smart as she was telling me her story.

She used most of her savings, which included part of her rent. And I think you know the rest. She and her child were homeless. Where were those friends and family who encouraged her to take that senseless risk? She was in tears thinking about the fact that her child had no roof over her head or food to eat.

Reparations Season 2023: This 4th of July, Let’s Evolve Our Community

So from now on, don’t let the 4th of July go by because this land was founded by genocidal thieves. Let it be a reminder to get back what was stolen from us. We should be more affluent than we are if we get restored to us what is owed. It is not impossible. Don’t let others deter us.
