USE WHAT YOU'VE GOT

Barbara Corcoran is one clever lady. And she gives the credit to her beleaguered Mom's teachings. Hailing from a cash-strapped New Jersey family loaded with kids, love, and life lessons, Corcoran parlayed $1,000 into a multibillion-dollar real estate firm. She defuses our cynicism and mistrust of the wealthy with the perky, canny, and sincere delivery of her rags-to-riches story. Unafraid of sounding silly, this joyous workaholic passes on her inspiration with real humility and makes friends of all of her listeners in this uplifting recording.
