Review: How to Build Wealth Workshop

Professor Carroll Buck speaking at SAM SJSU How to Build Wealth Workshop EventToday’s How to Build Wealth Workshop was a great event that gave students the opportunity to stop thinking like workers and start thinking like investors. Carroll Buck provided a great summary of the keys to value and wealth creation, and provided several real-life examples for getting started right out of college.

Central to his discussion was thinking about ways to discover and build value. His three suggestions were to find ways to FIND value, CREATE value, and HOLD value.

Did you attend this event? If so, post a comment and let us know your thoughts! Want to get a hold of Professor Buck? Email him directly at Buck_C@cob.sjsu.edu
