This sounds like Alonzo Herndon.

Alonzo Herndon (1858 - 1927) was born into slavery in Georgia, and was emancipated following the end of the American Civil War. He worked a series of difficult physical jobs with his family but set aside some savings to use in the future. In 1878, with $11 in savings and only a year of formal education, Herndon moved to Coweta County and learned to be a barber. A few months later he opened his first barbershop in Jonesboro. His barbershop earned a good reputation and in 1883, Herndon moved to Atlanta after finding a job at a barbershop there.

By 1904, Herndon owned 3 barbershops in Atlanta, all very well regarded. With his money, he began investing in real estate. He ended up purchasing more than 100 houses, as well as a block of commercial real estate; at the time of his death, his real estate's total value was $325,000.

Herndon was also a responsible local leader who involved himself a lot with the community. He was a generous philanthropist as well.

Answer:

Judaism: Would have been closer to Christianity, if there were not sever persecution of Jewish ethnic groups (Holocaust, just one example) and of the religion throughout history.

Christianity was spread across the world by European explores and conquerors, many people believing in Christianity like native Americans were forced to assimilate. (Think of Columbus, and Cortez, Spanish imperialism)

Hinduism was not spread nor was persecuted against hence it stayed where it was created and grew with that singular population. (More peaceful and spiritual, especially compared to Christianity)
