Listen to Episode 14:
We all have at least one friend or family member that wishes he or she could have some financial education when they were kids, at high-school, or even at college. Once we are all grown-up, it can be a little harder to learn financial skills, but it is not impossible at all!
Learning financial skills is an important and powerful virtue that can take you to places you’ve never thought of. Today’s guest expert, Curtis May, was that kid.
Born in Philadelphia, Curtis’ parents never had the motivation to get a good education or a good job, so he decided to help people with that conversation. Curtis is now the father of three little girls and is convinced that every parent should have those conversations with their children. Curtis May is now a financial educator, and we will learn from him how to manage our money the right way, or as May puts it, ‘It’s not what you earn, is what you keep’.
Curtis May is here to tell us about his 35-year-old business, how his company teaches people to manage money the proper way and multiply it with a well-built prosperity economic model, focused on long term learning and multiple investing options. Walk with us as Curtis shares the books that changed his world, how he made his first investment and the Prosperity Economics Movement he is part of.
‘"Your economic situation is a matter of choice not chance.’" Curtis May.
