10 books- Stock Market Starter Kit
Are you a beginner and don't know where to start? This live virtual workshop walks you through the basics of the stock market and teaches you how to buy and sell your first stock. We primarily focus on investing in the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and NASDAQ which can be long term or short term investments.
Why This Matters
Young adults are graduating into the real world with degrees—but without financial education.
They’ve been taught how to work for money. But not how to make money work for them.
• Investing isn’t taught in most schools
• Many don’t understand how wealth is built
• And by the time they figure it out, they’ve lost years
A Simple Way to Change That
The Risk Worth Taking was written to make investing clear, practical, and accessible—especially for beginners.
It breaks down:
• How investing actually works (in plain English)
• How to think about risk and opportunity
• How to start building wealth early
This isn’t theory.
It’s a roadmap
Our Goal
We’re on a mission to donate 20,000 copies of The Risk Worth Taking to young adults and college students. By partnering with the TD Jakes Foundation, your book donations will place practical investing education directly into the hands of those who need it most across the country.
Your contribution doesn’t just donate a book. It gives a young adult:
• Clarity instead of confusion
• Confidence instead of fear
• And tools instead of guesswork
Join us in blessing the next generation with the knowledge they need to prosper—financially and beyond.
Every donated copy is distributed to college students and communities through the TD Jakes Foundation.
