Growing up in Trenton, my mother would often ask me "When are you going to study?", to begin my career and evolve from the modest beginnings I had as a youth. At the time, the average job alone wouldn't carry me significantly above the poverty line.
In college, I encountered a student of a very different background who, after many talks, introduced me to a new way of thinking, of more ways to generate wealth that went beyond your average 9-to-5. The thinking set me down a path that assisted me in being where I am today.
This series is how I give back to the next generation, sharing some of the way of thinking imparted to me onto others like me. For those growing up modestly, like I did in Trenton, this series is for you!
