Summary: From a Financial Advisor
Review: I just finished reading Louis' book, The Latino Journey to Financial Greatness. The book is extraordinary. I am a financial advisor from Houston, Texas and have been working in the Latino community for over 5 years now. I read so many books on personal finance that I thought no one could specifically address the financial needs of our community. It's thoughtful, inspirational, and just plain honest and practical. I now recommend this book to all my clients. As someone who is currently involved in the financial planning industry, I can honestly tell you that this book will transform our community to financial greatness. I hope the book does well. I will definitely do my part and tell everyone I meet to buy a copy.

Summary: From a Non-Latino
Review: I work in an environment with mostly Latinos. I saw that my fellow co-workers were reading The Latino Journey to Financial Greatness. I asked to borrow a copy and let me tell you, the book is not just for Latinos. I am glad someone has had the courage to write a book like this. I saw myself in many of the limiting money beliefs he talks about. After reading this book, I signed up for my 401k plan, and have started saving money to live a life of financial greatness. His book is not a get rich quick book, like most others. It is about inspiring you to help you make more money to live a great life. All I know is that I have just purchased 3 books and have handed them to my non-Latino family members.

Summary: From a Latino Financial Planner
Review: Louis' book is revolutionary and groudbreaking, wow! The Latino Journey to Financial Greatness will change your life! Louis is the first and only Latino author to address the culturally conditioned beliefs about money that limit latinos. All latinos should read this book. This book should be required reading at the high school and collegiate level. The book is a very easy book to understand yet its message is pure and powerful. You will not change and you will not start your path to financial greatness until you make yourself aware of what is limiting you. Louis opens your eyes to the cultural limiting beliefs that hold us all back!

The Journey to greatness starts by focusing on your strengths and delegating your weaknesses. Despite what Home Depot tries to make you believe, A do it yourselfer is wasting their valuable time on a weakness. Some people waste a life time on careers and task that take them off their path to greatness. I ask you today. Are you a specialists or are you a generalists? Who would you go to today if you had a brain tumor, a neurosurgeon or your campadre that is a real estate agent, insurance salesman, travel agent and notary. Louis identifies this cultural barrier in his book as Mi Campadre, Consulting (Non)Experts. We as latinos do this all the time and aren't aware of it. The book is divided into two parts. The first part makes you aware about the 10 barriers or potholes on your journey to financial greatness. It is also very inspiring and motivating. Only after you are aware of the barriers will you be ready for the second part of the book, the 10 steps to financial greatness. I use the word Awareness because it is the key that Louis Barajas will hand you to unlock the imaginary door that you have placed on your path to financial greatness.

For the pastor in Indiana, thank you for writing that great review it was very helpful for me. Please contact me at [phone]. I will be in Indiana soon and would love to share my story with you and your congregation, thank you and kindest regards.

Summary: From a Latino Financial Planner
Review: The Latino Journey to Financial Greatness is an extraordinary and groundbraking piece of work. This book is by far the most insteresting and inspirational of all the Latino financial books so far written. Believe me! I have read them all. It is a true road map in finding financial and personal greatness. As Barajas writes" the why is more important than the how". It is practical and fun to read. As a Financial Planner, I have seen many of the cultural barriers that Bajaras points out with my clients. I have used the 10 steps with my clients and they all found the process motiving and inspiring. This book is a must read for all the financial consultants that wish to serve the Latino market.
