The chance to take that journey is well worth the price of admission.-Ellis Cose, author, The Rage of a Privileged Class and Color-Blind

All Americans will cherish this literary work which captures the thoughts and deeds of Black America's financial elite. These men and women are playing a major role in reshaping the economic fabric of America. They are pioneers; they are trailblazers; but more importantly, they are Financial Freedom Fighters.-Kelvin Boston, author, Smart Money Moves for African Americans and publisher, Moneywise Magazine

In her distillation of these successful individuals' approaches to wealth-building, Fairley creates models by which the reader can learn to adjust his or her attitude about investing. Each person's story reiterates basic approaches to saving and allocating money, always in the context of individual achievement.-Alvin D. Hall, author, Getting Started in Stocks

In Money Talks, Juliette Fairley achieves a rare combination: she tells the inspiring stories of financial experts, coupled with sound advice on managing money and building wealth.
