Will Roundtree: Author, Motivational Speaker, Financial Strategist

Life’s journey is a road that is to a degree personalized by that person who is traveling down that particular path. The stops along the way can either be quite a few or several of many. Either way, each stop results in a milestone where that person can make a difference in the lives of many while they are at that cornerstone.

Road To Success

Roundtree’s road to success has been nothing short of miraculous. In 2005, Roundtree left his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with a borrowed 500 dollars and headed towards the town that never sleeps, Las Vegas. Once there, Roundtree found the ruthless realities of living without a financial plan and bad credit. His applications were denied for housing, and this left Roundtree homeless and living out of his car.

With this new dilemma at hand, Roundtree was inspired to diligently educate himself on personal finance and credit. He would walk into libraries and read book after book about credit laws, standard operating procedures, regulations, credit and economics. Eventually, this led Roundtree to become a FICO certified credit consultant. In this role, Roundtree helped thousands of families successfully restore credit, purchase property, own vehicles for the first time without a co-signer, obtain credit cards and secure business credit.

Community Ties

Additionally, Roundtree is ever-present in his community. With the inception of his non-profit he helped to co-found, Commontree helps serve underprivileged children and families in the greater Las Vegas, Nevada area. But his giving does not stop there, Roundtree lends his time to a mentoring program and is in his first round of a brand new series called 50 Men. This series is dedicated to the men in his community who want to learn and apply that learning into personal finance, starting businesses and creating generational wealth for generations to come. 50 Women will soon follow.

Credit is King

Credit is the currency of our times. Whether it’s to buy a car, a house, or to get a loan, credit is key. As you grow older, your needs change and so does your credit. Analyzing your own credit can be difficult if you don’t understand what it entails. This book will teach you the importance of credit and all the factors involved from credit scores, debt, credit cards, and credit mistakes that can contribute to, or destroy, ones’ credit. In the end, you will learn how credit matters, not just in the major decisions you make, but in the minor ones as well. Credit Is King and there is no better leverage for creating your financial empire and building generational wealth.
