Imagine the stupidity of boasting that you're in the upper class of Black Americans with less than $400,000 in total household wealth. The average upper class white family has almost $2 million. economist.com/united-states/…
After reading this I'm convinced of why certain ADOS have money while others don't. It's by the same design that plundered most of us. Some in the article have family money going back 2 right after slavery. That's not a sign of luck. Y'all weren't a threat nytimes.com/1999/03/07/sty…
The government knew y'alls people would take your money & run from Blackness as quick as possible. No reason to chase after them. Meanwhile these people got all the smoke. What's the difference between them and other rich Black Americans? A sense of collective empowerment. 
These communities worked together to bring uplift to everyone in it. That's a threat to WS who don't want to see Black Americans as a whole elevated to anything. For that they were hung, shot, bombed, ran out of their neighborhoods. Whole enclaves of Black Americans destroyed.
But not the Boule ADOS families. While others worked for the good of all your family worked for the good of self. The money your family managed to obtain was never used to pour into the collective uplift of the people from which you came. That's why you can say you're upper class
