So Much Knowledge

I enjoyed this book because of the opportunities it could bring if we all work together financially.

Great Read! Easy to understand and follow. Full of great insights, history and personal anecdotes!

I enjoyed how the author covered the history of financial literacy in America, especially for Black Americans. He explained the reasons for the hopelessness that many Americans feel. He not only provided a humble and real perspective that the average American can relate to, he also provided solutions. I loved the author’s wisdom, concise explanations, and pragmatic focus on solutions. He maintained a good balance of being honest about the challenges we face, yet still hopeful for a better future (explained how and why as well). He shared many interesting stories and facts as well to support his arguments and provide context.
