FAITH + PURPOSE = LEGACYThis book is intended to encourage parents (fathers) to strive to be the best they can be at leading their family or business venture, showing strength, integrity and leadership skills, thus strengthening our communities.Both the Great Recession and economists, such as Sandy Darity, Thomas Piketty, and Emanuel Saez, provide recent, stark reminders that the wealth gap, particularly the racial wealth gap, is growing and has important, negative implications for working people and families. How does the average American family tackle this problem? Entrepreneur and investment professional Jason Murray offers a timely complement to the recent scholarly literature by presenting this practical guide to entrepreneurship and succession plans, a possible means to address the wealth gap and problems associated with it, such as intergenerational mobility. Faith + Purpose = Legacy is a great read and timely contribution.Dr. Lisa D.
