About Our Name
To better serve our community, we have chosen an Ebonic name that relates to the younger generation, as well as uplifts the older generation. Everyone wants to have a grip on life the way that Tiger Woods does with his golf club, Wynton Marsalis with a trumpet, Oprah Winfrey with her charismatic charm, or Fred Astaire with his dynamic dancing and screen work. These are true players in their perspective fields, achieving the utmost from their talents, skills and special interests, in order to obtain gainful financial independence and peace of mind. |
