Kerry Grinkmeyer
I am not the smartest guy in the room, but I connect the dots better than most. I’m dyslexic, so I use Audible to read at least one non-fiction book a month. I like to measure my success, so I manage my own investment portfolio and I run in the Senior Olympics. I like to share, so I have a YouTube channel where I’ve shared a video every day for the past three and a half years. I want to live forever, so I’ve written four books, painted 20 works of art, and made over 1,800 videos… I’m going to live forever!
Now I want to inspire you to do the same.

Mark Willet
As a seasoned investor with over 40 years of experience, my investing philosophy has been shaped by the evolution of the industry. I began my journey with dollar cost averaging into mutual funds when online trading wasn’t available, relying on newspapers for stock prices and making transactions through phone calls and mail.
Shannon “Shay” Marie-Katherine Grinkmeyer - Hamer
