Black Millennials Getting On Track To Create Generational Wealth

CBX Vibe

Millennials are set to become the largest generation and portion of the workforce in the U.S. though they continue to lag behind Baby Boomers when it comes to creating generational wealth. People 57 to 75 years old, control 53% of the country’s total wealth, and have a far larger share of the country’s wealth than millennials when they were the same age, 21% compared to the millennials’ 4.6%. Building generational wealth, financial assets passed down from one generation to another, is an uphill battle for millennials, particularly Black millennials whose financial legacy is imperative in closing the racial wealth gap.

No Injunction for Michael Jordan’s NASCAR Team in Ongoing Lawsuit

CBX Vibe:

It’s been a challenging race to the finish line in the latest lawsuit between NASCAR and Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing team. This tit for tat began with 23XI Racing and Front Row Sports declining to sign a new NASCAR charter agreement, which the aforementioned teams felt would jeopardize their fair share of the race purse. So in a bid to increase the revenues and influence of NASCAR Cup Series, Michael Jordan and Front Row MotorSports took legal action against the organization and chairman Jim France. Their suit claimed NASCAR’s actions violated antitrust laws, however NASCAR has since filed a countersuit which accused Jordan’s team of “interfering with” negotiations and “threatening boycotts of NASCAR events”. 

New Trump Rule Could Make It Harder for the Poor To Get Medicaid

CBX Vibe:

President Donald Trump’s new tax and spending law will likely force more than half the states to reduce payments to doctors and hospitals that treat Medicaid patients, a change critics warn will be particularly harmful to rural hospitals struggling to stay afloat. Medicaid, the joint state-federal health insurance program for those with a low income, reimburses doctors, hospitals and nursing facilities for treating enrollees. The new law will reduce Medicaid spending by $149 billion over the next decade, and reduce Medicaid provider payments in as many as 31 states.

Nike Bets on Inclusive Partnerships to Strengthen Brand Value

CBX Vibe:

Nike’s (NKE -0.79%) latest earnings report may show a dip, but don’t get it twisted, the Swoosh is still scoring big when it comes to cultural capital. During its fiscal Q4 2025, the sportswear giant reported a 12% year-over-year decline in revenue, falling to $11.1 billion, yet investors responded with optimism. Why? Because Nike is doubling down on its core advantage: cultural relevance through athletes and storytelling.

Love On Blockchain: Is The Future Of Marriage Digital?

CBX Vibe:

As we witness the rise of digital solutions across every industry, from finance to entertainment, it’s no surprise that even the institution of marriage is being disrupted. Blockchain weddings—a concept once seen as futuristic—are growing in popularity. Since the first blockchain wedding was recorded in 2014, couples have been exploring the idea of immortalizing their union through blockchain technology. An Indian couple brought the trend back to life in 2021 by creating an Ethereum smart contract to seal their vows.
