An evening with longtime leader in the field of asset-building Robert Friedman as he guides us through his latest book, A Few Thousand Dollars: Sparking Prosperity for Everyone. In this book, he presents a passionate and practical proposal to build nest eggs for all citizens without spending an additional dollar or raising the federal deficit.

Friedman, a trustee of the San Francisco Foundation, helped create the savings and asset-building, and U.S. microenterprise fields. He is the founder and chair emeritus of Prosperity Now, a national economic development nonprofit.  

Stockton Mayor Michael D. Tubbs will join Mr. Friedman in this conversation. As Stockton's youngest mayor and its first African-American mayor, Mayor Tubbs launched the nation's first city-led guaranteed income initiative, the Stockton Economic Empowerment Demonstration.
