I am a big fan of the Rich Dad Poor Dad book series by Robert Kiyosaki. What I found very interesting is that this book by Trower-Subira contains a great deal of the same information and philosophy but was written about 20 years earlier. Robert Kiyosaki created a cult following from the Rich Dad Poor Dad book not to mention making the New York Times Best Seller list and huge amounts of money. However, Trower-Subira made the same emphasis on financial independence via real estate and/or business ownership but I doubt if he made a killing like Kiyosaki did. In short, I highly recommend this book to anyone Black, White or other to absorb this book if one is serious about financial independence. Its a must have book.

This book is out of print so you'll have to get from a used book source but if you are serious about starting your own business you must seek it out. Mr. Subira discusses basic financial terms and offers as explanation as to why black people still haven't reached our financial potential. He has a special section for the Black woman and provides an action plan on how to getting started making big money. Kimberley Lindsay Wilson, author of Work It!

the book presented a balanced view of the possibilities set before blacks in america and the requirements to obtain such realities.it gives a no-nonsense approach to forming dreams and making reasonable estimates for the cost to make them real.
