I met a group of millionaires today.

Speaking to the 8th graders of Pascagoula School District.

When I was a kid my parents told me daily that my future was full of possibilities. It wasn’t until I grew older that I learned, what I experienced wasn’t the norm for all children.

Let’s fast forward and now I’m an adult in a position to help do something about the kids living in the absence of positive affirmations or opportunities. I often find myself on cloud nine when I’m afforded the chance to make a difference in the lives of youth especially the boys by speaking. What started out as a group of young athletes taking a community college tour ended up with their voices and hands raised standing in agreement that they were worth a million dollars or more- the millionaire boys club. I shared with them that their minds are investments that will clear well over a million dollars in value if they manage it properly with education. Most of the guys want to become chefs, engineers, or massage therapists. We all come across this profile of youth, don’t waste an opportunity to make a difference. Let’s all work together in efforts to protect our investments in the future. If you are ever in need of a motivational speaker for youth and young adults don’t hesitate to reach out. If you need a reference just ask my millionaire friends.
