About this listen
What if one book contained all the secrets to help people attain a better financial standing? To help us utilize the US credit system to its true potential? To help us tap into the entrepreneurial mindset for successful business ventures?
For decades, immigrants have flocked to the United States of America, inspired by its spirit of freedom and equal opportunity. However, many fail to consider the barriers they may have to face when looking for entrepreneurial avenues.
Financial Literacy for Immigrant Entrepreneurs is grounded in research, taking its roots from the state of financial literacy in immigrants of African descent living in the United States. It builds upon understanding the financial system, explains which hurdles one might have to encounter, and lists possible resources that may aid immigrants during their quest for upward social mobility.
It serves not only as a practical and inspiring guide for immigrants of African descent, but also for immigrants coming from any home country and background.

Ninety-five percent of potential real estate investors never buy a single property. Is it because real estate isn’t a sound investment? Is it because they’re priced out the market? No. It’s because they don’t recognize the earning potential in real estate. Nearly 36.6 percent of US households are renting - that’s the biggest percentage since 1965. Now is the golden era for residential real estate investment.

This concept of "being your own boss" is undoubtedly an alluring one. Nonetheless, not everyone can be a boss - not one decent or effective, at least. If you are actually an employee of someone (not a boss), it is perfectly natural to fantasize about owning a business of your own on those days when you are fed up with your current boss or work. The rags-to-rich stories you hear about entrepreneurs who have turned their visions into millions or even billions of dollars, make your fantasy even more attractive.

In 1992, the deadliest year in Chicago’s history, seven-year-old Dantrell Davis was shot and killed in front of his elementary school inside the public housing complex Cabrini-Green. What happened to Dantrell led to a truce among Chicago’s gangs, but it also ignited a national panic about poverty and violence in America’s cities. Dantrell’s name would soon be used to demolish all of Chicago’s high-rise public housing, displacing tens of thousands of low-income families.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.
