Johnson, who created the first Black-owned company to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange, is the founder of Black Entertainment Television (BET). AdvertisementThe acquisition made Johnson and his former wife, Sheila Johnson, who is the cofounder of BET, billionaires. What is the best advice you've ever received, and how did it impact your business or career? The best advice I've ever received actually came from John Malone. Early on, some people wanted me to call BET "Urban Television" because "urban" was, I'd argue, considered a softer way of saying Black.

☆ A leading fund manager warns that regional banks could cause 'financial Armageddon' — unless the government makes 2 crucial moves immediately
  + stars: | 2023-03-19 | by ( James Faris | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +8 min
Financial stress stemming from Silicon Valley Bank's collapse could spread, a top fund manager said. But that in itself is becoming an under-the-radar issue, he noted, as large banks' strength is now coming at the expense of regional banks — even those without issues. Since most regional banks aren't classified as "systemically important," their clients would be out of luck in the event of a bank failure, Hatfield noted.

So they'll have a negative interest margin, they'll lose money, they'll get downgraded, and they'll go out of business."
