It requires that you train with us. In our tradition black symbolizes humility, darkness, emptiness. That was also supposed to be its meaning in the belt ranking system devised by Professor Jigoro Kano for his Kodokan Judo. White is for purity. The black belt is supposed to remind one of the need for humility. In our system only the headmasters wear white belts.
I know this isn't what you are asking for. But it may help to remember that not only do different systems differ vastly in their requirements, but also in the relevance of their status symbols. The black belt was not intended to be a sign of rank but a sign of commitment.

For whoso comes amongst many shall one day find that no one man is by so far the mightiest of all.
You're just lazy. Now work harder at getting those S&H costs together.
Start with vigorously search wallet stance and follow up with pocket search drills.
After that spend some time on checking the sofa patterns and follow that with drawer pull and search routines.
If you can't get it together after that, you don't deserve that black belt!!!!
Kung Fu is good for you.
