The rules have changed. A post-pandemic economy. The inevitability of climate change. A divisive political landscape. New industries and new jobs are rapidly replacing the old. As our world has grown more unpredictable and complex, so has the task of achieving financial success and independence. But along with the risks and challenges, there are also opportunities to be found in this new landscape. An impressive panel of financial experts discusses the skills and strategies needed to navigate a path to economic empowerment and the significant implications for Black Americans and our communities.
