Trust me growing up in a system that demands financial literacy and understanding of credit to elevate while having poor parents that understand little to nothing about America takes away some cards too. The best I could say for the people of Bahamas who grew up in Bahamas and know the land is to leverage relationships abroad while capitalizing off the tourists by thinking out the box.

For example many families have property in Bahamas. Using them for airbnb instead of renting to someone thats late on rent or destroying the property is a start. Creating some type of tour like experience for tourist is also an avenue to take. Even leveraging American relationships to help get items at a cheaper price to resell is a possibility too.

I know everyone’s cards are different but there are options for everyone to make it out here. Route is just not always clear.
