Hate is a strong word. Let's just say severe dislike with cognitive dissonance. Can we disagree without being disagreeable any more? In today's TFG episode, Lovely Merdelus and Lawrence Delva-Gonzalez discuss comments when posting your own opinion online. Specifically, we are going to discuss how Lawrence manages to get under everyone's skin every time. Particularly on his IG or Facebook page. Also, IG Influencer Jayne Rivera poses next to her father's open casket for likes. Do we all need to take a break from social media to reset and reconsider? Either way, always remember, "he who controls your emotions, controls you."
The Financial Griot is a play on two words (Finance + Griot) that hold significance in closing the racial wealth gap.
Merriam-Webster defines a Griot as a West African historian, storyteller, praise singer, poet, or musician. The griot is a repository of oral tradition and is often seen as a leader due to their position as an advisor to royal personages. As a result of the former of these two functions, they are sometimes called a bard.
As such, we tell the stories that others don't. Stories that we should share for growth, opportunity and understanding. Beyond that we talk about Finances. Specifically, how to become Financially literate, incorporating actionable steps and ultimately building generational wealth.
So there you have it, The Financial Griot or TFG for short. You will be in for a treat. The hosts were able to amass over $2 Million in wealth in about 8 years and are on track to retire early. If you want the secrets; we will gladly share them since opportunity is abundant and Win-Win.
