You’re Not Broke… You’re Making Broke Decisions w Dominique Broadway | Episode 240
3/12/2026
What if wealth isn’t just about strategy — but about a decision?
In this episode of the Melanin Money Show, Rashad and Troy sit down with financial strategist, author, and investor Dominique Broadway to talk about the mindset, strategy, and financial tools that can transform your life.
Dominique shares the powerful story behind her bestselling book “The Wealth Decision,” including how she went from foreclosure and financial stress to building a thriving financial education platform helping women, families, and investors build wealth with confidence.
The conversation dives deep into money mindset, why many people unknowingly make “broke decisions,” and how shifting your beliefs about wealth can change your financial trajectory. Dominique also breaks down how options trading works, how it can create additional income streams, and how she’s helping everyday people build financial independence.
You’ll also hear her approach to raising financially literate children, why investing for your kids early matters, and how learning financial skills can create real generational wealth.
If you’re serious about building wealth, shifting your mindset, and creating financial freedom, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
In This Episode You’ll Learn:
• Why wealth starts with a decision, not just financial strategy
• How mindset and affirmations can reshape your relationship with money
• The mistake many entrepreneurs make when pricing their services
• How options trading can create additional income streams
• Why investing for your kids early can create generational wealth
• The importance of building financial skills that can never be taken away

Teach Your Kids This About Money… or Someone Else Will | Episode 239
3/5/2026
Building generational wealth isn’t just about leaving money to your children — it’s about leaving them the knowledge to keep it.
In this episode of the Melanin Money Show, we break down the five financial lessons every parent should teach their kids if they truly want to create lasting wealth. Because the truth is simple: giving your children money without teaching them financial principles almost guarantees the wealth will disappear.
Too many families focus on giving their kids the things they never had — but not enough focus on teaching the lessons they never learned. We cover practical strategies for teaching kids about investing, discipline, financial decision-making, and how to develop the mindset required to build wealth over generations.
Whether your child is 4 years old or 24, these principles can completely change the financial future of your family.
Because every legacy starts with one legend — and that legend might be you.
In This Episode You’ll Learn
• Why teaching financial principles is more important than leaving money to your kids
• How the “pay yourself first” rule can make it almost impossible for someone to go broke
• Why you should reward children for learning, not just working
• The powerful money rule: If you can’t buy it twice, you can’t afford it
• How to teach kids the difference between borrowing to build wealth vs borrowing to consume
• Why time and early investing are the biggest advantages your children can have
If you want your kids to build wealth instead of losing it, the conversation has to start early.
Teach them how money works, help them develop discipline, and show them how to make their money work for them.
Because generational wealth isn’t built by accident — it’s built through education, intention, and consistency.

You Don’t Need Another Hack. You Need Discipline. | Episode 237
2/19/2026
Is the wealth gap really a wealth gap…
or is it a spending gap?
In this episode of The Melanin Money Show, the conversation shifts from blame to responsibility—and from history to ownership.
Black spending power sits at $1.6 trillion annually. And yet, 80% of it leaves our community. The hosts challenge listeners to stop focusing only on what happened in the past and start asking a harder question:
What are we going to do with the information we have now?
This isn’t about shame.
It’s about strategy.
This conversation dives into:
• Why closing the wealth gap may only require a 10% shift
• The difference between a spending problem and an ownership problem
• Why “buy it twice” might be the discipline that builds wealth
• The critical difference between debt and leverage
• How environment shapes financial identity
• Why wealth is an identity before it’s an income
• The danger of consuming information without changing behavior
• How belief, behavior, and boundaries determine your financial future
The episode pushes beyond tactics and into something deeper:
You don’t need another hack.
You need a shift in identity.
Because if poverty feels normal, wealth will always feel optional.
But when ownership becomes the standard… everything changes.
What do you actually believe is possible for you?
Once you define that, your behaviors—and your boundaries—have to match.
Until they do, the gap won’t close.

Jewish Wealth Secrets We Missed ( Does God Want You Wealthy?) | Episode 236
2/12/2026
In this episode of The Melanin Money Show, we sit down with Pastor Lee Allen Jenkins — former NFL player, Wall Street executive, and now senior pastor — to tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in our community:
Does God want us to be wealthy?
This conversation bridges faith, finance, culture, and responsibility. From debunking the myth that “money is the root of all evil” to breaking down stewardship theology, generational wealth, and the wealth gap in the Black community, this episode is both empathetic and empowering.
We explore how history shaped our financial habits — but why this generation has no excuse not to change them. From conspicuous consumption to fractured family units, from exposure to mindset shifts, this episode calls for ownership, education, and long-term thinking.
If you’ve ever wondered how faith and finance truly intersect — this one is for you.
Learn :
Why “money is the root of all evil” is a misinterpretation — and what the Bible actually says.
The difference between poverty theology, prosperity theology, and stewardship theology.
Why stewardship isn’t just management — it’s multiplication.
How the Parable of the Talents applies directly to wealth building.
Why wealth is built through concentration and preserved through diversification.
What Pastor Jenkins learned from Jewish clients about generational wealth.
The dangers of conspicuous consumption in the Black community.
Why family structure plays a critical role in generational wealth.
How history shaped our financial habits — but doesn’t define our future.
Why representation and financial education are key to closing the wealth gap.
The mindset shift from “single-generation consumption” to multi-generational legacy.
and more!
