Big Mama Quotes

• Las escuelas no pueden abarcar todos los valores que van unidos a cómo manejas tu dinero. Por ejemplo, puede que una clase de educación financiera no me enseñe a odiar las deudas como lo hacía mi abuela, Big Mama.

• I knew I had found my life's passion after writing my first column for The Washington Post. The response was like nothing we had seen in the business section. Everyday people were writing that finally someone was speaking to them in a way that was understandable. I think we were all shocked at how many readers wrote in to say that they too had a Big Mama who taught them about money.

• My grandmother's grandparents were slaves. My grandmother Big Mama would tell me about the stories she heard as a child growing up in the shadows of a North Carolina plantation. It's only been in my lifetime that blacks have had the right to vote, live in certain areas or hold certain jobs. It is with this black history that I write about the financial challenges African-Americans still have.

• Mi Big Mama es mi modelo financiero número uno. Muchos de mis consejos se basan en lo que ella me enseñó. Nunca ganó más de 13.000 dólares al año, pero pagó su casa antes de jubilarse. Ahorraba dinero de cada sueldo. Me enseñó a ser escéptica. Me hace llorar pensar que soy columnista de finanzas personales en uno de los mejores periódicos del mundo y que mis principales consejos provienen de mi abuela negra, que era auxiliar de enfermería y sólo tenía estudios de secundaria.
