Believe it or not no success comes easy especially when you have been traumatized,mentally abused,adopted and lived in poverty .

With faith in God I was able to achieved a small measure of financial success in the face of sibling adversity.


In the genesis of my young adult life I had a horrific life changing experience living with my sister in Illinois.I was subjected to sleeping on a cold cement floor with old news papers as my security blanket .




Many a nights I went to bed hungry and cold.Permit me to digress from this story for a few minutes to discuss the particulars.It's August 1977 Elvis is dead 5 months later I departed Brooklyn New York to pursue a nursing education in Chicago I was only 27 years old with stars in my eyes I was elated about moving to Chicago to be with my sister a University graduate with 3 degrees, had promised to be my academical mentor.What transpired next was sheer cruelty to the max.It was a terribly stressful situation that sucks really bad.With God on my right I was able to expeditiously flee from my sister's hell hole .


Determination, courage, anger,and hard work I was able to rise up from the ashes of despair and slowly climb up the ladder of success.I graduated from Triton College of Nursing and wisely invested in the stock market....
