Show Notes
Fiquan Bilal grew up in a low income community. 26 years later, he's buying underperforming apartment complexes in the Southeast and turning them into places where people actually want to live, complete with resume workshops, financial literacy programs, and pathways to homeownership. His goal: provide quality affordable housing for 5,000 families. His model: Complex to Community. In this episode, Fiquan and co host Sue break down how impact investing works, what busy professionals need to know about alternative assets, and why legacy isn't what you leave for your kids, it's what you leave in them.
