Money begets more money, so the saying goes. But with research from the Runnymede Trust showing that for every £1 a white British family has, black Caribbean households have about 20p and black African households approximately 10p, the odds seem stacked against us.
In this week's episode, we speak to Sharmayne Pitkin, Vernice Wint and Lois Brown, three ladies who are on a mission to change the status quo for their families through trading and investing. Not only for the additional income, but also as a means of creating a legacy of wealth for their children and for future generations.
In the conversation they discuss the different ways of investing and how they manage to balance their trading activities with their responsibilities as mothers and career women.
Vernice Wint is a mother of two, a trader and an entrepreneur. Working from home, she runs Mums on a Mission where she helps mums and women learn a new skill so they can become the best versions of themselves and attain freedom in all areas of their lives.
