Faith and Finance: Educates and inspires listeners on how to get wealthy quickly in your 50's.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Pastor Dexter Jenkins.

Purpose of the Interview

The interview aimed to educate and inspire listeners about wealth creation through real estate and financial literacy, particularly for individuals over 50. Pastor Jenkins shared strategies for building generational wealth, shifting mindsets about money, and leveraging real estate as a primary tool for financial independence.

Key Takeaways

1. Intersection of Faith, Finance, and Business
   Pastor Jenkins emphasizes that faith and financial success are not mutually exclusive. He advocates using biblical principles as a success manual, especially from Proverbs.

2. Real Estate as “Low-Hanging Fruit” for Wealth
   Real estate is one of the simplest and most effective ways to build wealth because land is finite and historically valuable.

3. Mindset Over Money
   Wealth building starts with changing beliefs about money. Many misconceptions learned in childhood or church need to be unlearned.

4. Refire, Don’t Retire
   For those over 50, Jenkins encourages leveraging life experience to create new income streams instead of slowing down.

5. Social Security Reality Check
   The average Social Security check (~$1,400/month) is insufficient for most Americans, highlighting the need for personal wealth strategies.

6. The SHIP Method

   • Stewardship: Direct your money intentionally.
   • Ownership: Own assets that appreciate and generate cash flow.
   • Entrepreneurship: Consider business ownership as a wealth-building tool.

7. Education Before Action
   Start with learning—books, podcasts, seminars—before diving into real estate or other ventures.

8. Community Wealth Building
   Jenkins supports initiatives like “buying back the block” to revitalize neighborhoods and build collective wealth.

9. Secrets to Success
   Desire, planning, education, and execution are essential. Dreams without plans remain dreams.

10. Upcoming Resources
    Jenkins is releasing a book: The Real Estate Wealth Creation Blueprint, offering practical steps for using real estate to build wealth.
