What We Need to Understand About the Stock Market.......2003-05-16

I found this a very interesting book. The sons of the late Reverend Jamison and his wife have come across a stock that he purchased and go to seek the advice of B.B. Freeman, an African-American financial advisor. The three are both skeptical of the idea of investing. At each year, all three are to decide whether to sell or keep the stock and learn about the stock market and money management. This book is specifically targeted towards the African-American community but it is worth reading for anyone who doesn't have any idea of what stocks are and how to invest.

Teaching through a Good Story.......2001-04-17

Finally, a financial book that speaks directly to the African-American family! This book is so incredible because it approaches our culture in the manner we love the most--through a good story. The teaching tone is so soft, you don't realize that you're learning about investing.
