Ethiopians are one of the most educated African diaspora group, we litterally are in every major us firm, managing directors of JP Morgan to Ernest and young on Wall Street. We have doctors, lawyers, professors, and engineers. Somalians cannot compare to us in education and employment. Good joke though :liberaltears:
Looooool how are they in top ranks of working field and education when they sound like the English language is the enemy of theirs.

Stoob ze lies.

My family is very productive
My parents are both literate and are both working hard to earn their bread. My father speaks 6 languages
My mother 4. They've helped build a school in Dire Dawa.

My father always told me hard work pays off

The Somalians they feel they are entitled to everything even though they can't write a basic sentence more than half are analphabetic.

They posses infrastructure today that that wouldn't be able to compete with a BC empire
Your parents are both literate but are they educated? What exactly are you bragging about?

If we're going to discuss the potenial laziness of the somali people in terms of their work ethic, I would argue that there are layers that can explain that laziness. Somalis living in Europe and North America are doing worse than those in Africa. Somalis are the jews of Kenya, the richest woman in uganda is a somali and so on. The reason for this success can be explained by the lack of welfare which incentivises them to work hard and make a living. In the west, somalis lack the incestive to work because the government is giving them money. Scandinavian countries are regarded as the go-to model of economic success but the numbers show that they were far more successful before the welfare system was introduced. Income inequality was lower and they lived longer. Scandinavians living in America are often times doing far better than those in their homeland. This is interesting when you consider the fact that Scandinavians who left for America were oftentimes poor. The only root to success is old fashioned hard work. Socialism doesn't work, and thus collectivism doesn't work. If you want to build a successful society, take away the welfare system and build a free market economy (with workers rights) and you'll see nuclear families rise and hard work will be seen as profitable. @Kezira @Menelik III Go back to the shitty dead site called Mejera.

A reason Somali businessmen do well in countries like Kenya and South Africa is due to both countries having a much larger population base (compared to 10 million Somalia) whichs more demand and more opportunities.

However, it wouldn't hurt that much if they invested back home especially in areas that need investment such as energy (Somalia has the most expensive energy costs in the world)

It is true that the welfare system does promote laziness, but for one to actually dwell in it for decades means there's inherent inabilities beforehand. Somalians glorify the little success that they do have, I don't blame you since the outlook for your country is dim. The vast majority of Somalians in Kenya and other parts of Africa are illiterate common folks. Saying that Somalis are akin to Jews is quite laughable since the only connection is being human. Take the the Ugandan successful lady you mentioned, you have mentioned her more than once today. Why is that? Is it because in order to uplift your self worth you point out the little success your country folk have had? I believe this to be an inherently Somalian trait. I see you guys fight about who has the most business people or which clan has the most success as if you are apart of the success. I guess it could be because of the clan family association? Either way, most Ethiopians and other groups of people don't really see the success of other members of their ethnicity as being note worthy of glorifying beyond the normal appreciation. I would say that we are happy for them and want more success among our people but it doesn't really go beyond that. I always hear Somalians say that they run kenya because of said individuals, then why are Somalians dying on a daily and being persecuted?

You haven't been in Kenya.

You raw meat eaters failed to see all the coffee resources.

Mohammed Abdillahi Kahin Ogsadey (b.1920s-2006) was a Somali business tycoon based in Ethiopia, where he established MAO Harar Horse, the first African corporation to export coffee.

If you think the Harrar Horse logo is popular here, you should see what it means in Ethiopia. Ogsadey’s reputation is legendary: first beginning as a truck driver, then becoming the first native African coffee exporter in Ethiopia, and ultimately, building a coffee empire which is famous throughout the county and the world.

Ethiopians are being killed by their own TLFP government, so what's your point?

You obviously failed to see my point and went on to prove it. Here's some Ethiopian business owners from Forbes and not some forum lol.

My point is that we don't glorify the success that we do have unless it's direct family or extended family.
That can't be true. I have suspicions that these two are woyanes posing as Somalis.
I never once said I was Somali, I am Ethiopian non Somali.

thats off topic.
