To have wealth is to have financial independence and peace of mind. The journey towards building wealth can be challenging, time consuming, and complex. From my humble beginnings as a 1st generation immigrant from Viet Nam, my family and I began our pursuit of finding a better life in US. My parents made the biggest sacrifice by deciding to uproot their lives along with their 7 children, sell all their belongings with the exception of couple luggage's of clothes, and leaving behind the rest of their family and home to start anew in new land of opportunity. We had to learn how to adjust and navigate our new environment and home. Along the way, we were fortunate to have support and education from our local church parish and community members. I will forever be grateful for the sacrifices my parents made to move across globe to give us, their children every chance for success and also to everyone else who has offered guidance and support since we landed in this land of opportunity we now call home. These experiences have shaped me continue be a resource to my community, to provide guidance and education.
