Gabriela Berrospi has emerged as a leading economic voice in the Latino community, advocating for financial education and empowerment.
Latino Wall Street is the life mission of Gabriela Berrospi, who founded the financial literacy organization with the goal of eradicating poverty and increasing generational wealth in the Latino community.
She and the organization are on a meteoric rise: Berrospi is an in-demand commentator on financial issues in the Latino community, a member of the Forbes Financial Council, and has recently appeared on several magazine covers. With a TV show on the New York Stock Exchange in partnership with FinTech TV, Berrospi is emerging as a powerful economic voice in the Latino community.
Berrospi and her husband and business partner Tony Delgado hosted the inaugural Hispanic Prosperity Gala at Mar-a-Lago on Feb. 10, which featured a star-studded lineup of political and business leaders, musical entertainment and a speech by The Argentine president, Javier Milewho received the Economic Freedom Award while praising the MAGA movement and exulting over the recently signed US-Argentina trade agreement.

The Hispanic Prosperity Gala showcased the undeniable power of Latinos in the Trump administration and a growing transnational effort to unite right-wing movements across America.
Berrospi said his dream was to always host an event or gala to showcase success stories from different industries in the Latino community, including athletes, Latin Grammy Award-winning musicians and business and financial icons.
“I’ve always wanted to show the world who we really are, what we’re capable of,” he said. “A lot of media coverage about Latinos is like, ‘Oh, they’re undocumented, oh, they don’t have money, oh poor, oh this or that,’ and it’s not very empowering. My movement, Latino Wall Street, is about empowering and uplifting Latinos.”

Berrospi quotes Berkshire Hathaway’s Warren Buffett and Ray Dalio of Bridgewater Associates as major influences on his investment philosophy.
“To eradicate poverty, we basically follow the most conservative way of investing,” he said. “The way I’ve invested my money, I’ve learned that it’s not about getting rich quick, it’s about being patient, it’s about investing in the top indices that have been proven to work, no matter what, what pandemic, what world war, what terrorist attack. So there are proven strategies, right?

“And actually, when something bad happens, it’s just an opportunity to add to your positions. So the same exact knowledge that he gave me at his Omaha conferences that I’ve had the privilege of attending and learning from him in person, that’s exactly the project that we’re following. We invest in commodities. S&P 500extremely conservative strategies that have been proven to work.”
Berrospi criticizes the culture of conspicuous consumption for making it difficult to educate Americans about financial literacy, prosperity and sound investments, a trend that has only increased with social media’s potential to present get-rich-quick investment plans.

“I think we live in a culture that is all about spending money. It’s about showing off. I mean, and I say this with confidence because I come from a different culture, right. In Peru, we don’t have that kind of culture: we spend money, we fight. It’s very different. It’s more familiar, more conservative.”
It also emphasizes that the American economic dream, while real and attainable, comes with great danger along with ignoring financial literacy.

“America is the richest, but at the same time, it is also the most indebted,” Berrospi said. “And I think there’s something to address and that’s being responsible. And always making sure that a portion of your income goes into your future, into your retirement, into your account for your child. That’s so important and so basic, and you can do it on autopilot. Then, once I learned that from the best mentors in the world, like Warren Buffett, it’s pretty simple … that’s it and it works because we’re not doing random things.
