Right in your face SLAVE, are you ready?

"The New Underground Railroad is about freeing people who need to be economically enlightened, as the author puts it." Henderson built his own financial group on the declaration of Harriet Tubman; "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death." By the time you have read the last page of The New Underground Railroad, you too will declare the same.In the present, he empowers individuals to step away from the slave-master mentality and be energized with the essentials of the 21st Century. One way of doing this is to have a winning attitude, think positive, nothing we have not heard before right? Well this author proceeds to say that faith and positive thinking does not work alone, you need to take action. Gain control of your life, gain ownership of some real estate. The modern slave is of no race, creed or color.Robert Henderson, Jr. exercises the use of cliches and scripture lessons to expound on his point. Sometimes it is repetitive but in view of the fact that it reads like good news that we slaves (people) need, so be it. I believe the one message Henderson wanted us to walk away with is this, we as slaves need to begin taking advantage of America and all of its riches. Think and dream bigger than you ever have before then put those visions into motions. MissyAPOOO BookClub

For the modern day slave

Do not pick up this book to be entertained, it should do more than that, it should enlighten, empower and educate anyone who wants to break the chains of Economic Bondage.It is written by a young man who was so stirred by Harriet Tubman, that he wanted to empower individuals to step outside of the slave-master mentality and adapt to the elements of the 21st century. Because poverty has no color or limitations, it just exists. The New Underground Railroad is about freeing people who need to be economically enlightened. It is an escape plan intended to educate the readers about real estate, stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. And to teach about the effects of inflation and taxation. The author so aptly states 'he wants to bring Wall Street to your street'.Mr. Henderson, Jr. shares some superb investment tips, which should flag this book as a beginner's guide to understanding investing, a good reference tool.

Offers solid financial and living advice

Written by Robert Henderson, the African-American founder and CEO of the Henderson Financial Group, The New Underground Railroad: Breaking The Chains Of Economic Bondage is a very highly recommended and "user friendly" guide to escaping the present day bondage and slavery-like conditions of endemic poverty. From freeing oneself of slave mentality ("I can't do this", etc.), to learning how to take advantage of investment options, to coping with bull and bear stock markets, health insurance, credit cards, and a great deal more, The New Underground Railroad offers solid financial and living advice in direct, easy-to-understand terms expressly for Black Americans, but would prove to be invaluable for readers of all backgrounds struggling to improve their financial circumstances. The New Underground Railroad is highly recommended reading, especially as a primer for the novice in a complicated world of finance and confronted with the conundrum of earning a decent living.
