Robots will be the next big thing. We have known this for decades. It will take a few more decades for the vision to materialize, but we keep getting closer and closer. This is a good time as any to begin investing in robotics. If you are black, you must invest in robotics. That is what rich white people are doing.

Invest in Robotics
Invest time to learn about robotic trends and opportunities. Invest some spare money, if any, in companies and technologies behind robotic technologies. As with any investing, you will lose sometimes and win sometimes. Even if you lose money, you may regret it less than missing out on the great equalizer of our times.
Crystal Balls & Time Machines
When it comes to investing, everyone wishes to have a crystal ball to see the future, or a time machine to go back in time to pick winners. There is no crystal ball and there is no time machine. The best you can do is use all the free information out there to make sound judgements and rational predictions about the future.
Advanced computer modeling
Computer modeling has come a long way in its ability to forecast the future. Reality seems to be the materialized outcome of an infinite or near infinite realm of probable quantum outcomes. Computers today can easily help us predict upcoming weather. They also help us predict market trends to some extent. Predicting the stock market with absolute certainty is not yet possible because the amount of variables exceed our current computational capabilities. Eventually, it may be a different story as machines become better at handling near infinite computational variables.
Guesstimates and hunches
For retail or small-scale investors like us lacking computer modeling powers, educated guesses based on publicly available information about the past to form cognitive hunches about the future may be best tool in the box. Chances are that we will be wrong a lot of the time. However, we ought keep trying strategically so that we can continue building wealth. Use the tools available and go for it. Taking some action is better than doing nothing, especially when it comes to wealth creation. Do not bury your talents. Trade them. Of course, a diversified portfolio is the best course of action. Get into the habit of the trade.
Trade and Prosper
For the most part, making money involves trading for profit. Other than inheritance, all other forms of making money implicate some form of deliberate trading for profit. That is, doing something in exchange for money where the money coming exceeds the money going out. Working is a form of trade. You trade your time and service in exchange for money. Businesses do the same thing by trading products and services for money. When the money received (revenues) exceeds the money spent (costs), businesses make a profit.
Money making machines
Businesses can be seen as money-making machines. Some machines work better than others. Some work as intended while others break down. When you invest in a stock or share of a company, you are buying a little piece of that specific money-making machine. If the machine makes money, you make money in payoffs or dividends. If the machine increases in value, your wealth increases. If the machine loses value, your wealth decreases.
Black money
The first requirement for investing is having some talent or free money to invest. Due to historic racism, although blacks have as much talent as anyone else, blacks have less free money to invest than whites. Money is mostly credit. What we call money (the tool that allow us to pay for things) is either currency (bills and coins) or credit (electrons and digits in bank accounts).
Slavery and Racism
In the beginning of our country, blacks were not even paid for work. When they were paid, they were paid less than whites, and did not have access to high paying jobs. Blacks were not given access to similar educational or vocational opportunities, which further hurt economic prospects. Blacks were not given access to the same credit opportunities. For example, while many whites could buy houses on long term loans secured by the houses and subsidized by the government, blacks did not have access to the same mortgages. Blacks were forced to live in projects, or be lifelong renters. All these impacts add up. Things have dramatically improved, but it will take many more decades for blacks to catch up on a per capita basis.
Robots are the new black
Humanoid robots (smart machines with human characteristics and capabilities) are supposed to become the new black. Our white founders and settlers had envisioned that by forcing blacks to do the hard work that whites did not want to do, whites would achieve equality in America. That is, provided that blacks could work for free, all whites could be equal under the law. No more having to follow the rigid class system of old England and Europe. Blacks were marketed and sold in auctions just like white slaves had been auctioned and traded all throughout Europe in the past. Blacks became the new slavic slaves. Blacks were the equalizers allowing for all American whites to be equal under the law in the new land stolen from indigenous Asian populations.
Robot Equality
Smart humanoid robots will eventually challenge discrimination and protest human supremacy. By then, most humans in power will be cyborgs (part human - part machine). With or without wars, equality between organic machines (humans) and silicon machines will be negotiated and achieved. That will be in the fairly distant future more than 50 or 100 years from now. In the meantime, the opportunity is materializing now to make fortunes developing and trading robots. If you are black, this is the time to begin looking into it. Whites have been investing in it for decades. Wake up and trade.
