A female math whiz overcomes gender discrimination to achieve success in the stock options market and invests her profits in supporting struggling communities across the globe only to be attacked by the SEC and loses her fortune to defend her honor. Karen Bruton’s story is the tale of a woman who pioneered her way to corporate success through tough cultural and economic times and now seeks to encourage and strengthen women around the world who face dire poverty. From a young age, Karen Bruton simply wanted to do her best at school, get into a good college, and start a career. While pursuing her first job during the early 1970s, she was confronted with the harsh reality of being a woman in the male-dominated corporate world. But she persisted—becoming the first female professional at several firms and ultimately rising to the rank of vice president and corporate controller at two different companies. Once at the top of the corporate ladder, she had a number of international experiences that revealed the plight of the desperately poor. Karen sensed a calling from God that led her to leave her prestigious position and devote her life to offering hope to these destitute populations. Karen founded Just Hope International in March 2007. During her initial projects, she had a nagging sense that the usual approach to charitable work was not effective. She realized there was a better way to alleviate entrenched poverty—by offering a hand-up rather than a handout. Her organization began equipping willing workers in the Global South with economic principles and entrepreneurial practices that allowed them to build their own businesses, save and invest money, and take control of their lives—gaining dignity in the process. During the course of her financial career, Karen spent a decade learning to trade on the stock market. After leaving her executive position, she continued trading stocks in order to create an income for herself and her nonprofit projects. Her surprising success attracted the attention of her friends and former colleagues, who asked her to invest their funds as well. In response, she launched a private hedge fund whose earnings allowed her to underwrite all of Just Hope’s overhead and operating costs. After unprecedented returns, Karen was shocked when she came under investigation by the SEC, which accused her of fraudulent practices. Her deep faith, quiet confidence, and the staunch support of her investors upheld her throughout this dark time. In the midst of the SEC investigation, Karen and her team continued their humanitarian endeavors. After working in several countries in South America, Asia, and Africa, Karen and her team witnessed how essential women are to the success of their projects. Though women are the hardest, most dedicated workers, Karen grieves how little support and encouragement these women receive. She finds herself deeply inspired by these courageous women and sensed a fresh calling to devote her energy toward encouraging and strengthening women specifically in the years ahead.

"Realizing that he had more experience dealing with Native peoples than other lieutenants serving on the frontier, Gatewood decided to record his experiences.

In Take on the Street, Arthur Levitt--Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission for eight years under President Clinton--provides the best kind of insider information: the kind that can help honest, small investors protect themselves from the deliberately confusing ways of Wall Street. At a time when investor confidence in Wall Street and corporate America is at an historic low, when many are seriously questioning whether or not they should continue to invest, Levitt offers the benefits of his own experience, both on Wall Street and as its chief regulator. His straight talk about the ways of stockbrokers (they are salesmen, plain and simple), corporate financial statements (the truth is often hidden), mutual fund managers (remember who they really work for), and other aspects of the business will help to arm everyone with the tools they need to protect—and enhance—their financial future.
A National Bestseller! What does an undocumented immigrant look like? What kind of family must she come from? How could she get into this country? What is the true price she must pay to remain in the United States? JULISSA ARCE knows firsthand that the most common, preconceived answers to those questions are sometimes far too simple-and often just plain wrong. On the surface, Arce's story reads like a how-to manual for achieving the American dream: growing up in an apartment on the outskirts of San Antonio, she worked tirelessly, achieved academic excellence, and landed a coveted job on Wall Street, complete with a six-figure salary. The level of professional and financial success that she achieved was the very definition of the American dream. But in this brave new memoir, Arce digs deep to reveal the physical, financial, and emotional costs of the stunning secret that she, like many other high-achieving, successful individuals in the United States, had been forced to keep not only from her bosses, but even from her closest friends. From the time she was brought to this country by her hardworking parents as a child, Arce-the scholarship winner, the honors college graduate, the young woman who climbed the ladder to become a vice president at Goldman Sachs-had secretly lived as an undocumented immigrant. In this surprising, at times heart-wrenching, but always inspirational personal story of struggle, grief, and ultimate redemption, Arce takes readers deep into the little-understood world of a generation of undocumented immigrants in the United States today- people who live next door, sit in your classrooms, work in the same office, and may very well be your boss. By opening up about the story of her successes, her heartbreaks, and her long-fought journey to emerge from the shadows and become an American citizen, Arce shows us the true cost of achieving the American dream-from the perspective of a woman who had to scale unseen and unimaginable walls to get there.
