    Happy New Year! Thank you all for tuning in to the podcast. This year I plan to have more focused content on wealth building. Generally, wealth building starts with how you think which is why I focus more on how you think as opposed to which investments to make. So, stay tuned in and tell a friend about this podcast because more great information is coming.  I wrote an Opinion piece for WORTH Magazine back in February 2006 on the State of African American wealth in the United States and I decided to read it as part of this new season of wealth building. It's powerful and thought provoking and at the time no one was talking about Building Generational Black Wealth.
