Weve been led to believe that knowing more makes us do better. But when it comes to finances, having a plan and sticking to it is what makes us do better. Knowledge is power, but knowledge without strategy is just acquired information, continued Soaries. We are on a critical mission to annihilate the wealth gap statistics that have been placed on us as a race. And, thats just what were going to do.
