Despite already being able to retire luxuriously and live a peaceful and happy life on a remote island somewhere, Jenny continues to give back, mentor, build, grow and learn and each minute you listen, will add more value to your livelihood, trust me! Sit back, relax, take a listen and learn more about Jenny below. Meet Jenny!Jenny Q.

As founder and CEO of Titan Securities, a full-service broker-dealer and investment-banking firm, Ta built a company that was profitable enough to be acquired in 2005. Prior to that venture, Jenny had filled the role of founder, CEO and driving force behind Vantage Investments, another full-service broker-dealer and investment-banking firm that she started while still in her early twenties and quickly grew to a-third-of-a-billion dollars in assets.Ta's next two entrepreneurial endeavors included masterminding two modern tech companies: VCNetwork.co, a virtual eHarmony meets “Shark Tank,” matching entrepreneurs with VCs, and CoinLinked.com, an American online social-commerce platform powered by a decentralized blockchain to connect the traditional marketplaces of today with the digital currencies of tomorrow. These two more-recent ventures were solidly grounded in Jenny's rich business background, which includes extensive firsthand experience in senior executive management, sales, marketing and finance, with forays into the fintech industry and exploration of the opportunities that cryptocurrencies, blockchain and other distributed ledger technologies afford. Jenny Ta's third successful exit occurred in August 2021, when both entities were acquired by HODL Assets Inc. Jenny is also a published author, whose book, “Wall Street Cinderella,” details her escape from Vietnam during the war and traces her path to success from welfare to Wall Street. The book serves as a helpful road map for women who are determined to pursue a successful career in business. Ta's educational background includes an MBA degree in financial management. She also holds a Bachelor of Science degree in management information systems from CSUF.On this show, Jenny shares:⛰️Her journey from Vietnam, to living on welfare in the U.S., to Wall Street and her path to becoming a self-made millionaire
