People doubting how much money people like Jay, Diddy and Bey make. For your info, these people own property too. Not a condo here and there, but high rise, multi unit buildings over 40 floors high, and shares in hotels, etc. Oprah owns plenty of property: farms, studios, buildings, stores, warehouses, schools, etc.- some here and overseas. She truly is a powerhouse and a hard act to follow.

Should Tiger Woods be on here? He says he’s not black. And his actions sort of support that notion. I’m proud of everyone else. Not him tho. He SUX!!

its pains me that some people cant even coneive someone making 160million from entertaiment–stupidity knows no bounds ! if u cant comprehend that then you wouldnt be able to wrap your head around the fact that the richest man in the world makes more money in 30 minutes than most will in a lifetime ..the gaps between the have and the have nots is so large..if u keep the mentality that you have to “work” for your money then youll always be broke the rich know how to make thyere money work for them people get with it!

I agree, Tiger Woods should not be on this list. Too bad we can’t do a race draft for real. I’d trade him in for Teena Marie in a second… I’d even take Eminem.

@ 75, I agree, nobody is reading this at all, besides with all that Bey’s hustle game, with her Concerts and movie “DreamGirl” thats all the girl got…why bother!

Tiger is African American, Chinese, Native American, Thai, Chinese, and Dutch. Why does he have to identify himself with black and ignore all of the other things he is???

Never a bad thing when you can say you earn way too much to get a tax rebate check from the IRS. Good for all of them! I look forward to joining their circle one day…hopefully…

Why the f**k is Tiger Woods on this list…. He doesn’t even consider himself BLACK?? His mother is Asian and his father was bi-racial?? He’s NOT BLACK people! He evens calls himself Cau-bla-asian! His wife is the WHITEST of WHITE women… SWEDISH! Please… stop including this guy on lists of black folks… everyone else can have him.. he clearly doesn’t want to be and doesn’t acknowledge that he’s BLACK! UUGGH!

I agree Tiger Woods wants nothing to do with black people. I don’t understand why Woods is on the list. Woods mother is Asian and his father is part black. Woods has made it clear he is not a part of the black community. Why is Woods on the list?

The reason why Tiger Woods is on this list is because the white man knows something that Tiger Woods and many black people don’t. The white man knows that it’s not what you consider yourself that matters, it’s what you are. This society says one thing and practices another, so if America states that you must “embrace all aspects of your lineage, heritage, and culture”, it really means “you are however you look to me”. This is the same exact reason why censuses are distributed that ask you what race you are. In America race matters more than anyplace else because there are so many different races here. The white man needs to keep tabs on how many there are in his country of the various races.

A person is whatever race the father is because the man carries the seed, determines the race and the sex. Tiger Wood’s father is black, so Tiger Woods is black. The white man knows this, so he includes him on this list. I hope that black people stop making such dumb comments regarding why Tiger Woods is on this list because he calls himself “cablinasian”. Tiger Woods is no more delusional than the majority of double-minded negroes that say that “color doesn’t matter” in one breath and then get roused up over Obama in the next breath.
