The focus for Take Control Tuesday for 2025 is achieving financial wellness, through strategies to manage your credit score, save money and more. Today, Mansa Musa discussed our levels of financial capability. He poses three questions that will help us determine if we are on our way to financial well-being:

What do you do with what you have?
What can you do to remove the limits on your income?
And what percentage of your income can you give away?

Mansa says this boils down to, “how do you keep more of what you make and how to increase what you make.”

Randi enjoys writing about the city of Detroit, faith, and the community.
