FATHERS – AMALA EKPUNOBI BREAKS IT DOWN! A RAINBOW OF ROLE MODELS {WEDNESDAY SERIES}
“A CHILD WHO GROWS UP WITHOUT A FATHER IS MORE LIKELY TO EXPERIENCE:
- Homelessness
- Commit crime,
- Serve time in prison,
- Abuse drugs,
- Drop out of school,
- Be obese,
- Suffer from poverty,
- And so much more.
And the United States has the highest share of single parenting in the world. How did we get here, and is there anything that can be done to reverse this trend?”
Fix Fatherlessness, Fix America: An Unapologetic Special
“Twenty-one-year-old Amala Ekpunobi was once a student organizer for the left. Unanswered questions—and a search for the truth—led her to a complete ideological transformation., Amala became a viral social media sensation. Now the host of PragerU’s show “Unapologetic with Amala,” she inspires millions of young people every day to discover the truth, defends their values, and lead better lives. Amala is a sought-after public speaker.”

ABOUT ME
I am a proud nerd (as my beautiful wife and daughter have told me) investment and finance blogger with an N.C. State, Chemical Engineering, University Rutgers, MBA and Harvard University, Advanced Management education.
I left a corporate career because I desired to make a difference as a speaker and writer. I was blessed to be coached and mentored by strong women and men in my family and professional life. It is my time to serve and give back.
DISCLAIMER
I started my first business at ~13 years of age (a small but brilliantly created plant nursery). I am a successful investor in stocks, options, real estate and am happy to share my finance and investment lessons. I am NOT a licensed financial advisor. Please do not construe my suggestions on this blog as recommendations for your situation. As an investor, you must establish your risk/loss tolerance. Investment in any asset involves risk, including complete loss.
Please seek your licensed CPA or fiduciary financial advisors for individual financial advice.
I write this weekly blog to make an impact by reaching an audience and demonstrating the need for financial literacy. I will help you get there.
