What if building wealth isn't just about making more money—but about learning how to own, invest, and build together? In this episode of The Watsons: Stronger Together, Carlos sits down with Dr.

Boyce Watkins, founder of the Black Business School, to talk about investing, business ownership, Black economic power, and building generational wealth. They discuss stock investing and options, the power of consistent long-term investing, teaching children about money, and lessons from Dr.

Watkins' own experiences with stocks, real estate, and Bitcoin. The conversation also explores rebuilding after financial setbacks, the power of family and community, and how families can work together to create economic opportunities.

From investing for your children to understanding the difference between owning and running a business, this episode offers a fresh perspective on what it really takes to build lasting wealth. 👉 What's the most important financial lesson you would teach your children? And do you think families should have regular conversations about investing, business, and building wealth?
