Answer:
Honestly, I think black people have been criticized for so long that they start to believe that they can't do or be anything, except for an exceptional few like Oprah. Let's face it, this is a white country that was built on dishonesty and lies and slavery and still to this day that same thing exists. It is so hard for a black person to make it in this country if it's not sports or rap. Most white people would say that as a black person that I'm just using that as an excuse but as a black person I experience it every day and it is the truth. We have to work 10 times more harder to make it.
because blacks are poor. pbs is not an objective source.
Simple slavery.

Slaves when considered a possesion were worth more than all other industries combined in the 1800s.

Once slavery was abolished, the Southern economy failed. Many blacks lived in the South and could not create a living in the South for their family nor for the familes after them.

Plus, there is a lot more WHITES then Blacks. And only a very few mulitmillion and up people in the world. Therefore naturally this would occur.
Those who work and earn their money should be able to control it!
For a simple question, a simple answer -

because they're the ones who made it.
its a free country anyone can be a billionaire. they just need something to work. like Oprah shes smart. for others like the televangelist. it just come to them they lie for it.
Not to fan the racial flames, but most blacks are stereotyped to be uneducated and lazy - maybe it's true? I read all the time about black women looking for white men because they can offer them better lives. I have even seen this on talk shows. Example? The Tyra Banks Show.
statistics is the answer. nothing racist about it.

your question is dumb.
Not in the NBA not in MLB not in NFL . So you are saying that 92% of world welth is controlled by whites? thats absurd
...because Europeans set out to "colonize" the entire world ("Colonize" meaning steal all of the natural resources). Why does more than half of the world speak English, French, or Spanish? The East India Trading Company initiated the downfall of tribal societies worldwide.
Because whites were the first to really exploit other "races" in order to earn more money. It started with colonization and continued with slavery in the U.S. For centuries blacks were unable to even think about being able to earn money. Unfortunately when they were given the chance to do so they were thrown into a system already in motion and forced into poverty. It's hard to crawl out of a pit like poverty but you will occationally see some that manage to do it.

White's control most of the money because white males still dominate in the realms of business and politics, they have become the gatekeepers so to speak. It's the same reason why women makes less money than men do for equal work.
