The solution to drastically break the financial chains that enslave Hispanics, came with the recent launching of his new book “From poor Latino to RICH LATINO”, where he reveals 33 secrets never before known about wealth, 50 strategies to invest wisely, 15 methods for money protection, and 7 immediate action plans to prosper in harsh economic times. “But what makes this book exceptional is that it’s written in Spanish, in easy to understand language, and reveals practical information that can empower the common Latino to soar above his circumnstances, to prosper in any crisis, and to help his family”, continued this entrepreneur, Lawyer, Nuclear Engineer, ex-Olympian and local resident. “From poor Latino to RICH LATINO” (ISBN: 9780615-28477-4) is a Practical How-To Guide to protect capital and make it earn at the same time, in the bleak moments that Hispanics are living today. The book is already available in print, digital and seminar format through Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Ingram Books, Baker & Taylor, and other online and independent bookstores. # # # http://www.akgmag.com/article/FROM_POOR_LATINO_TO_RICH_LATINO_.htm Sun, 02 Aug 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.akgmag.com/article/FROM_POOR_LATINO_TO_RICH_LATINO_.htm
