When the pandemic hit, Dodson picked up real estate, stock investing, and credit repair, using the last bit of money he had to invest into these ventures. He learned the ins and outs of financial literacy including how to maximize credit potential and wrote his first book, Bridging The Gap, a financial literacy workbook to understand how to let the dollar work for you. This program helps people get funding, invest money, understand real estate, and finance cars. Dodson helps ordinary people create and scale businesses. His primary focus is giving the hood a legal and legitimate way out.
