La educadora financiera Linda García desmenuza uno de los sistemas financieros más elusivos pero efectivos que existen. Madre soltera desde muy joven, Linda se las arreglaba para sobrevivir. Las facturas y las notificaciones de desalojo no dejaban de llegarle y se sentía estancada. Tras recibir el consejo de un amigo del trabajo, Linda dio el salto e invirtió doscientos dólares. Pronto, doscientos dólares al mes se convirtieron en siete mil dólares, y luego en una inversión de seis cifras. Ahora es propietaria de su casa y gana más dinero del que nunca habría imaginado, y está dispuesta a ayudar a otras personas de color a acceder al conocimiento bursátil y alcanzar el éxito financiero. Como orgullosa latina, García entiende que crear riqueza puede significar algo más que entrar en ámbitos financieros históricamente vedados a las comunidades de color. Puede que primero sea necesario llegar a la raíz de nuestras heridas monetarias: los factores y experiencias que limitan nuestra capacidad de sentirnos merecedores de riqueza y capaces de construirla. En este manual de inversión, la autora nos enseña a establecer un presupuesto, crear un "fondo de oportunidades" y pagarnos primero a nosotros mismos. Nos muestra cómo analizar una empresa, elegir las acciones adecuadas y crear un plan para multiplicar el dinero. Aprenderemos: - Qué significa invertir, a dónde va nuestro dinero y cómo leer las gráficas de las acciones. - Cómo evaluar empresas, elegir los primeros valores y comprar las primeras acciones. - Tácticas para liberarse de la mentalidad de escasez y hacer crecer las acciones para crear una riqueza que nos cambie la vida. Complementado con un glosario accesible de términos bursátiles, The Wealth Warrior es una guía perfecta para generar la riqueza que se merece. Financial educator Linda García breaks down one of the most elusive yet effective financial systems in existence. A single mother at a young age, Linda struggled to survive. As bills and eviction notices flowed in, she felt stuck. After getting advice from a work friend, Linda took the leap and invested two hundred dollars. Soon, two hundred dollars a month grew to seven thousand dollars, then that became a high six-figure investment. Now she owns her home and is making more money than she'd ever imagined, and is ready to help other people of color access stock knowledge and achieve financial success. As a proud Latina, García understands that building wealth can mean more than stepping into financial arenas historically kept from communities of color. It may first require getting to the root of our money wounds--the factors and experiences that limit our capacity to feel deserving of wealth and capable of building it. In this investing playbook, she guides you on how to establish a budget, create your "opportunity fund," and pay yourself first. She shows you how to analyze a company, choose the right stocks for you, and create a plan to multiply your money. You'll learn: What it means to invest, where your money goes, and how to read stock charts. How to assess companies, pick your first stock, and buy your first shares. Tactics to break free from a scarcity mindset and grow your stocks to create life-changing wealth. Complete with an accessible glossary of stock market terms, Wealth Warrior is a true primer on how to generate the wealth you deserve!

This book is a heart felt story about a grandmother and granddaughter's unconditional love for one another. The love is so strong and undying. Linda, our author, is a stronger person than she lets any one in on, and would like for people to look at her life as a success story. Going through so many trials and tribulations, and set backs and still being able to raise her children on a very small income, and always being a working mom; she was able to overcome so many obstacles' and still make sure her children had what they needed to get through everyday life. Even though she longs for her fathers love, affection, and attention, and one on one relationship, she was able to learn so much from everyone around her, ....family members. Linda grew up with her aunt Adelia as well as her maternal grandmother, and even though times were rough some days, she was able to grow to learn from and admire her aunt that took her in at a young age. Even though her aunt Adelia had her own family and there were struggles within the household, she was able to raise Linda, and teach her so much. Linda will always love and appreciate, and respect her aunt Adelia for all she had to go through raising a rebellious adolescent, and not giving up. Linda also loses faith in love and all that it stands for, not being able to open herself to marriage the way its supposed to be and a relationship with a man by her side, she floats endlessly like a lost soul and finds it hard to let her heart fall deeply in love, unconditionally. (a major obstacle) for her. Linda, would like to challenge her audience while reading her book, in the fact that, there's so much to learn and discover about life, when a parent dies, and children are left behind to make a name, and life for themselves, enduring everyday life as it comes at you. Throughout reading you will find that everything about Linda's life, and the person she is today and has become, is like a shadow of who her nana was, and thanks to the man upstairs for never leaving her side, proves there is a God, and you should never give into losing your faith, and never give up, no matter how bad you want to or how bad things get. In the end, striving to be your best acts as inspiration to others and you don't even know you could be helping others.
