Sinopsis

"Birthright Economics" examines how inherited advantages shape economic destinies, challenging conventional views of meritocracy. The book argues that birthright—encompassing financial inheritance, access to education, and social networks—exerts a significant, often underestimated, influence on wealth inequality and social mobility. For instance, families transmit not only financial capital but also crucial social capital, providing offspring with enhanced opportunities in education and employment. The analysis integrates sociological research on intergenerational mobility with economic studies on wealth inequality, utilizing statistical data to quantify the impact of birthright on economic outcomes.

 
The book progresses from defining birthright broadly, to exploring how advantages accumulate over time through tax policies and educational systems. Major sections analyze the impact of family wealth on access to quality education and healthcare, and how social networks influence career prospects.

 
Ultimately, the book proposes practical policy recommendations, such as progressive taxation and investments in early childhood education, aimed at mitigating the effects of birthright and fostering a more level playing field. This approach makes it a valuable resource for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the systemic factors behind economic inequality.

    Does your life ever feel out of control? In a world in which dual-income families, increasing work responsibilities and crazy schedules make it very difficult to achieve balance, there are few answers. Successful business owner and leader Sean Kouplen experienced the frustration associated with burning the candle at both ends and watching his life pass by. He tried everything. Traditional time management techniques just weren't enough. Let The Priority Promise help you take control of your life and start living again. This revolutionary seven-step process will help you start owning your life and living your priorities. 
    Why should you implement the seven-step Priority Promise Life Management System? Navigating today’s busy world without some type of life management system is virtually impossible. How many people do you know that excel in one area of their life, only to completely fail in another area? In my line of business, I deal with individuals who are extremely successful on a professional level. They have great business acumen and put all their energy and time into growing their net worth and building their corporate empire. They often fail, however, in managing their other roles. They may find their marriages struggling, their relationships with their children nonexistent, they fail to take care of themselves mentally or physically, and they have few close personal relationships. They focus their time and effort in one role (or a few closely related roles) with no plan or discipline to manage the other important areas of their life. The Priority Promise system literally changed my life. I wrote this book because I believe it can change your life too. We must all learn to prioritize our lives in such a way that the important roles are satisfied first and we are realistic about what we can accomplish within our available time.

     “A powerful, game-changing book. Tom's approach is changing lives.” 
    — Seth Godin, Author of This is Marketing 
      
    Discover how supporting employment for people with autism unlocked new ways of running a business—and revealed transformative lessons for all of us. 
    Rising Tide Car Wash in Parkland, Florida, isn’t average in any way. When Tom D’Eri and his father John bought the location in 2013, they wanted to create employment opportunities for workers with autism. Like 1 in 54 Americans, Tom’s brother Andrew has autism, and he was facing lifelong unemployment. So the family set out on a mission to provide professional opportunities for people like Andrew, starting with one car wash. Now it’s one of the highest-volume washes in Florida. Its employee retention rate is five times that of its competitors. It has spun off into two additional locations that have been immediately successful, and the business is absurdly profitable. 
    The Power of Potential tells the inspiring, surprising reason why: The wash’s excellence isn’t in spite of their unusual workforce, but because of it. Thanks to their neurodivergent staff, the Rising Tide team was able to discover and correct common problems that typically fly under the radar in businesses, including:You hire based on interviewsYou think great talent is the secret to a great businessYour managers are “good enough”You fire your worst employees 
    By spotting and correcting these hidden problems, any business—with any kind of workers—can achieve unexpected wins and leave average behind. At Rising Tide, solving these problems resulted in four unexpected wins that added up to a culture of excellence:Every employee felt safeAccountability became a tool for growthEveryone’s work gave them a sense of purposeCustomers loved their experience

    From the esteemed President of Hampton University, an insider account that reveals the secret to HBCU graduates’ remarkable success—a distinguished honor roll which includes Vice President Kamala Harris, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Oprah Winfrey, Zora Neale Hurston, Toni Morrison, Ruth Carter, Ta-Nehisi Coates, and many others. 
    In his more-than-four-decade tenure as the President of Hampton University—one of 107 Historically Black Colleges and Universities in America—Dr. William R. Harvey has been a champion of the cultural impact and value of HBCUs, demonstrated by the achievements of their numerous notable alumni. Their success is no coincidence. It is the result of a faultless formula that sets HBCUs apart and helps their students thrive—a formula built on core tenets, including displaying moral and wholesome values at all times, continuously pursuing character growth, and embracing communal responsibilities whenever possible. 
    The mission of Dr. Harvey is to represent Blackness to its highest degree at every opportunity. He is a passionate believer in the remarkability of the Black diaspora in all its complexity and beauty. That conviction drives the timeless lessons he’s adhered to and has instilled in his students: the power of dress to establish respect; the importance of integrity; financial accountability; reverence for elders. It is these tried-and-true lessons and others that have uniquely prepared and propelled HBCU students to success for generations.  
    The Historically Black Colleges and Universities' Guide to Excellence is a thoughtful and knowledgeable account of what it truly takes to successfully navigate a white world as a Black person while retaining one’s core Blackness. Practical and proven, it lays the groundwork for individual and communal Black prosperity.
