Nothing changes your life more than God, love, and raising your credit score by 120 points. If your days are about God and love, they’re also about money—because everything in life costs.
-You can’t drive without paying a car note.
-You can’t fuel up without paying for ...gas.
-You’re reading this on a phone you paid for.
Money is everywhere, and the system is designed for those who understand the rules. That’s why we’re here to coach & counsel you—helping you access SBA benefits, FEMA relief, Red Cross assistance, city/state programs, and earned income tax credits.
In many cases, we can help you pause your financial obligations—banks, credit cards, loan payments—for 6 months to a year. That’s breathing room. That’s time to reset your life.
Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Master the game of capitalism, even if your goal is to give like a socialist. Learn the rules, play to win.

Did you know 70% of GDP is consumer spending—and 40% of that comes from diverse markets, including women? The truth is, when we empower the bottom of the economic pyramid, we grow the economy for everyone.
📊 70% of Americans—across ALL income levels—live paycheck to paycheck.
...
💰 Half of those making $100K+ struggle financially.
🏡 Even a third of those earning $250K+ are barely getting by.
Rising costs, inflation, and tariffs will only make things harder. Financial literacy isn’t optional—it’s a civil rights issue of our time. We need it taught K-12, through college, and beyond.
🚀 The solution? Equip people with financial knowledge, turn earners into owners, and add 2-3% to GDP. We can’t just cut costs—we need to grow out of this.
That’s why on April 4th in Memphis, we’re bringing together a broad coalition of leaders—Republicans & Democrats, Black & white, rich & poor—to drive real economic change. And later this month, Green Socks Day reminds us that the one thing we all agree on is the color of money. 💚
Big thanks to SquawkBox for having me on today! Let’s build a future of financial empowerment.

During the global pandemic period of 2020-2022, a growing list of Fortune 500 CEOs and leaders referred to John Hope Bryant as a necessary ‘conscious on capitalism.’ Bryant firmly believes that a for-profit business enterprise can do well, and do good, too. That issues such as participatory stakeholder capitalism amongst line employee groups, or a corporate commitment to diversity and inclusion, are not ‘moral issues’ to be argued, nor nagging costs on the balance sheet burdening a company, but essential investments in future shareholder value, and untapped business assets to be embraced. Bryant believes that truths and profitability can simultaneously be held to light. He believes that you can achieve ‘social justice through an economic lens,’ and profitability and responsible wealth creation in the same breath.
Over the past 30+ years, Bryant has built more than 40 companies, organizations and brands, many of which today represent the sole leadership in their area or sector. Two of these organizations are the largest and most successful in their space; namely Operation HOPE, the nation’s largest non-profit financial literacy, financial inclusion and economic empowerment organization, and The Promise Homes Company, the nation’s largest minority controlled owner of single family rental homes.
