Building BLK Wealth emphasizes the importance of cultivating a mindset focused on persistence, focus, and continual improvement (Kaizen). Success in building wealth requires dedication to education, action, and resilience, especially in navigating obstacles unique to Black Americans.
These “thieves” include taxes, fees, inflation, and wasted time (labeled as Weapons of Mass Distraction, or WMDs). Benjamin Green encourages readers to understand how each of these factors can drain wealth and provides strategies for minimizing their impact.
Building BLK Wealth stresses the importance of financial literacy, especially for Black Americans. Key concepts include understanding taxes, fees, inflation, and the role of time in wealth building, with practical advice on managing retirement accounts, life insurance, and estate planning.
Building wealth that endures beyond one generation is a focal point. This includes a strong focus on teaching children about money, investing, and entrepreneurship from an early age to break cycles of poverty and lack of financial education.
Benjamin Green challenges traditional views on education and career, encouraging Black Americans to consider alternatives like vocational training, entrepreneurship, and careers in high-demand fields over costly degrees that may not yield high returns.

In September 2017, Prosperity Now and the Institute for Policy Studies published The Road to Zero Wealth: How the Racial Wealth Divide is Hollowing Out America’s Middle Class”. The report highlights the growing racial wealth gap in the U.S., projecting that if current trends continue, the median Black household wealth will fall to zero by 2053. The Building BLK Wealth book was inspired by the Road to Zero Wealth report.
The book Building BLK Wealth™ was written to help everyone and anyone that wants to build wealth and improve their lives. Although this book draws specific attention to the unbelievably alarming potential plight of Black Americans, the contents of this book can be utilized by all Americans. America is better and stronger united as one country facing globalization. In the book Building BLK Wealth, “BLK” symbolizes:
a. Building Lifelong Knowledge
b. Building Lifelong Kapital (the German word for capital)
c. Boldly Leveraging Knowledge
d. Business, Legacy, Knowledge
e. Building Lifelong K’s (thousands)
f. Better Lives & Knowledge
