African Americans have made incredible strides in many areas, but generational wealth is one in which we need to play catch-up. There is an often-overlooked, simple way to build generational wealth for pennies a day. 

Generational wealth consists of assets, holdings and monies that are passed on from one offspring to the next, and built upon by each generation.  A family business is the first thing that comes to mind when many think of generational wealth. Wine vineyards, orange groves, tobacco farms, and sugar plants started by ancestors centuries ago continue to be passed down to children who build upon them and pass them along to their offspring in the form of inheritances.
