My friend Ruben Navarrette referred me to an inspiring hashtag on Twitter, #WhenThisIsAllOver. People from all over are posting things they think or hope will happen when this pandemic is behind us. Some are funny, like “#WhenThisIsAllOver we will all have bidets”, and some are more heartfelt such as “#WhenThisIsAllOver I will visit my parents more”, but the ones I like the most express appreciation for our healthcare workers. It inspired me to post my own tribute to healthcare workers on Facebook and asked my friends to post pictures of family members who are healthcare workers. I got dozens of comments and photos sent to me, and they all touched me deeply. If you have a family member who is in the trenches right now treating patients and protecting us all from this horrible pandemic, please send me a note about them with a photo. I’m not sure what I am going to do yet, but I want to do something nice to recognize them. They are the heroes of the moment and I hope we never forget what they did for us during this crisis.
There’s no shortage of social media advice on how to get rich—but most of it misses the point. I explain why the first step to real wealth is understanding why it matters, and how the NAHREP 10 principles lay out the blueprint for a richer, more fulfilling life.
The acronym DEI is dead—but the fight for equal opportunity is far from over. I break down why lazy labels set us back, and why we need to rebrand the movement in a way everyone can get behind.
AI is changing the game—and Latinos have a chance to jump ahead. I’ll break down how using AI smartly can help close the wealth gap faster than politics, and why the time to act is right now.
