Bøker av John Hope Bryant

Sound, simple, and easy-to-implement financial advice is hard to come by. Much of the guidance offered to people seeking help with personal and household finance is needlessly complicated, involves high-risk and speculative strategies, or is designed to advance the interests of a variety of advisors, brokers, and planners. In Financial Literacy For All: Disrupting Struggle, Advancing Financial Freedom, and Building a New American Middle Class accomplished philanthropist and social entrepreneur John Hope Bryant delivers an easy-to-follow and powerful new resource for everyday Americans trying to build a strong financial foundation. In the book, you'll find an accessible first step to creating a secure and prosperous future for you and your family, regardless of your educational or employment background. You'll establish a financial mindset that contributes to success and wealth, rather than debt and struggle, and that helps you to answer tough money questions you'll encounter every day. The author issues a call to action for public and private sector leaders to help bring financial literacy education to young Americans and working adults, while outlining a plan that invites individuals and organizations of every stripe to join this movement for financial self-determination. Financial Literacy For All is a critical pillar for anyone seeking to build a rock-solid base for their current and future financial decision-making. It's a must-read book for working professionals, blue-collar workers, members of young and growing families, and established businesspeople striving for a better, more secure future for themselves and their families. It will also prove to be invaluable for anyone helping to lift others out of poverty as well as those advising clients on personal finance.

True power in this world comes from economic independence, but too many people have too much month left at the end of their money. John Hope Bryant, founder and CEO of Operation HOPE, illuminates the path toward liberation that is hiding in plain sight. His message is simple: the supermajority of people who live in poverty, whom Bryant calls the invisible class, as well as millions in the struggling middle class, haven't gotten ';the memo'until now. Building on his personal experience of rising up from economically disadvantaged circumstances and his work with Operation HOPE, Bryant teaches readers five rules that lay the foundation for achieving financial freedom. He emphasizes the inseparable connection between ';inner capital' (mindset, relationships, knowledge, and spirit) and ';outer capital' (financial wealth and property). ';If you have inner capital,' Bryant writes, ';you can never be truly poor. If you lack inner capital, all the money in the world cannot set you free.' Bryant gives readers tools for empowerment by covering everything from achieving basic financial literacy to investing in positive relationships and approaching wealth with a completely new attitude. He makes this bold and controversial claim: ';Once you have satisfied your basic sustenance needsfood, water, health, and a roof over your headpoverty has more to do with your head than your wallet.' Bryant wants to restore readers' ';silver rights,' giving them the ability to succeed and prosper no matter what very real roadblocks society puts in their way. We have more power than we realize, if only we can recognize and claim it. ';We are our first capital,' Bryant writes. ';We are the CEOs of our own lives.'
