Introducing Financial Investor JaHvon, Get to know him.
We need to change our way of thinking. Many of the people who we see out here are
capable of WAY more than they believe they can achieve. But I never knew why they
would sell themselves short. Just imagine if EVERYONE did all they can to their best
potential.... How would the world change today? We walk outside everyday unsatised,
everyone needs more, no one is free. So why do we wake up and repeat the same
things each day expecting a change. Having someone else writing the nal chapter of
our book of life. That's insanity.
I grew up in sports. Six years old out there playing rec ball. I came up with coaches who
didn't care for the players, they only cared for the talent. Once the talent was done
and the trophy was won, the player was gone. With no guidance, no future, nothing to
look forward to except the next time he could put on a jersey for the next coach that
would burn them out and throw them away. Coach Frey (my father), Coach Sean and
Coach Lamont raised me. They raised a family of us to strive for nothing less than
greatness. He pushed people to get to the next level. We built a bond. Something we
can hang onto for years. A bond that would never be broken with a work ethic like no
other, but why am I saying this?
I related it to the work world once my history of injuries held me back from playing the
sport I am passionate about. I saw parents from any class (high, middle, and lower)
struggle. Of course it's a different kind of struggle but it's still present.
Those who have time have no money so they are hungry. They go out to try and make
their money by any means. Middle class has their ups and their downs, it's too much of
an emotional roller coaster. The wealthy has all the things that money can buy, but they
see their families only on through the frame on their desk.
So I preach to everyone especially Millennials to push for ownership. The "American
Dream" will not be achieved the same way as it did for our parents and grandparents.
Ownership is the key thought.
We need to start teaching this material to our peers. Family, friends, co workers etc. This
is powerful information EVERYONE needs to know. Thing is, they don't teach us how to
become nancially free. We are all held back by the fear of failing or the fear of
success.
I have a vision. For everybody who share the same drive as I do. Those who can utilize a
business that will not only help loved ones and place them into a better place
nancially. In turn, the compensation is a tool one can utilize to fund what they truly love
to do. This business will free up not only your time, but give the compensation as far as
a
