Ash Cash Exantus Personal Life
His story starts in the squalor of Harlem, New York. Ash Cash was born on 14th November 1980. Like all poor neighborhoods, drugs, and crime were normal. Ash had to physically and mentally fight his way to survival. His mother was a poor immigrant Haitian woman who could barely speak English. Ash’s dad left the family when he was young.
Despite the poor condition, Ash has managed to rise from the ashes. He is a wealthy man right now raising the family and becoming the father he never had. He is married to Amina Lee and together they have 1 child.
Though he was brought up in a poor neighborhood, Ash had the desire to escape from poverty. The glimpses of entrepreneurship were evident from as early as 8 years old when he was selling mixtapes and t-shirts.
As he grew up, Ash’s dream to become an entrepreneur almost got lost when he became a product of his neighborhood. He bought a number of illegal guns, started selling drugs, and moved with criminal gangs. Like them, he got involved in shootouts and gang fights.
His behavior got him suspended from school several times and later got expelled in 10th grade. He was lucky to join a community college when his sister, teachers, and basketball coach talked him out of selling drugs and crime.
Building a Financial Empire
After college, he got an opportunity to work as a teller in a bank. For five years, Ash worked himself up the corporate ladder. At just 24 years, he had become the Vice President of Chase Bank. He later got an opportunity to work at Carver Federal Savings Bank where he was an assistant vice president who managed sales and services, reached out to the community,y and coached personal bankers. His experience later led him back home to work for Citi Bank as a vice president.
After working for more than 10 years in the banking sector, Ash resorted to starting entrepreneurship. His dreams quickly crumbled leading him to get back into corporate society. He joined Urban UpBound Federal Credit Union as a CEO. Ash worked there for a year and left to pursue his entrepreneurship ambitions. He founded a company called MindRight Money Management financial education company that linked psychology and personal finance after he realized a gap in the way people thought about money.
He started helping people to learn financial education by organizing workshops, seminars, online courses, and writing educative articles. Ash later started a talk show called The Ash Cash live show and podcast that focused on personal finance and empowering people. On the side, he was working as a director and head of financial education for a leading bank mobile that had more than 2 million clients.
