“We as African Americans are not taught to manage our money. To invest in ourselves, our children, or in our communities. Reading Cheryl’s book helps me to understand that all of this is possible. She enabled me to understand if I could take 10% of my money and give to tithes or a charity, I could also take at least 10% and reinvest in myself and my children to come.”—Tisha Campbell
