“The original plan was always for me to go to school and live that typical life. But it didn't work out, so I had to make my own plan.”

Before the age of 20, Greg Haygood spent a number of years in what he calls “survival mode”. How did he go from living on his own as a teenager in a homeless shelter to a successful career as a finance executive? Perseverance. From his office in Washington, DC, Greg discusses: 
 - His creative approach to joining the United States Marine Corps
 - Why he “almost exclusively” reads books about finance (and three that he thinks don’t get the attention they deserve)
 - Teaching his son about money by offering a high interest rate
 - A Peabody Award-winning TV series about money
 and much more.
