    Known for “educating the culture on how to build wealth one share at a time,” New Orleans native Leon Howard, popularly known as Wallstreet Trapper, has been dominating wealth building through the stock market for years. Growing up in New Orleans, Leon is no stranger to the streets and the pitfalls that come with it. During his 10 year prison bid he learned about the stock market and since then has been applying and teaching it to everyone willing to learn.
    Through his company, From the Trap to Wallstreet, Leon provides a plethora of resources ranging from courses, ebooks, and a private members only group where he simplifies wealth creation and normalizes generational wealth for the black community through investing in the stock market. Today he has a community of over 800,000 Trappers that he teaches about investing and wealth building.

    One of the first questions my crim law professor asked us, "Why do white collar crimes get punished less than violent crimes?" Answer: the laws are being made by people who are more likely to commit white collar crimes.

    This is unbeliveably amazing! My biggest takeaway:
    A lot of wealthy people can’t teach financial literacy to the poorer people because those are the biggest customers/ who else gonna be the consumers.
    The lion can never tell or teach the zebra or the gazelle how to get away- If the lion tells the zebra how to get away/ they gonna tell everybody else/ what they gonna eat?! He no longer gonna be the king of the jungle- financial predators need financial prey.
    Just quit a job because of this reason- if you are providing value/ you should be paid for the value that you provide!!!! Absolutely!

    His honesty and genuine nature is what I expect from someone from New Orleans. This really hit home for me. His story, his experiences are all too familiar because I’m also from New Orleans and I’ve known so many young men my age fall victim to those circumstances. Many of them were GOOD men. Even male members of my family were victims of the violence in that city. I’m so proud of this young man. Thank you Lewis for allowing him to speak on your platform.

    Hands down, the best interview I’ve ever WATCHED. Super inspirational.
    Biggest takeaway was : Money is a tool not a goal; Go all in for something at least once in your life. Making money shouldn’t always be the ultimate goal instead HOW CAN I ADD VALUE TO THIS PERSON, if I seat down with you, how can I add value to you? Be an asset in People’s lives in the sense of actually using your brain, skill set or personal life experience from which value will and can flow from.
    Above all, anything’s possible.

    You never know who is going to teach you a life lesson. Thirty years ago I had a cushy corporate job and was introduced to a man wearing an electronic ankle bracelet. He was imprisoned 5 times before he realized he too was playing the wrong game. He started a vineyard on vacant land in the inner city and taught returning felons about growing grapes and wine making. You'll find his story in Oprah's "O" magazine. He changed the lives of people who have served time for the worst offenses. He changed the lives of wealthy people who he recruited to help him make the dream a reality. He definitely changed my life. He changed his community. He just passed and we were fortunate to have him. Thank you Trapper and Lewis for bringing these messages to those who will listen.

Making time for the Holy Spirit to be our first and most important teacher will guide us into a life , where no longer do I chase after money and identity.

      don't feel bad, you did your part sharing awawy & its thier lost for not trying. I myself knew almost everything this indvidual talked aboout. my mindset could not help me undertand the concept could work for me. one of the key element held me back is my minset of not wanting to lose out on my government benfits. in my opinion that is a key issue most americans face. I have gradual walked away from all government assistance. I am still working on self displine my mindset want to apply for food stampsbut my reality helps me to understand that I dont need them. I have food & money to buy my basic needs. back in the days my minset was that $100 in cash i can keep in my pocket & use my food stamps. the bad part is I was not thinking wisely, by me not depending on gonverment assistance I value my money diffrently & looking back I could have done these things also being on government assistance had I had better understanding.

    That mental health/healing question is so important and profound! Telling us how to become financially free with all this trauma, and not fully grasp that this is two fold and the work is continuous. Best video ever, this is so relevant to me it's like having a confirmation in my life right now. Thank greatly Lewis for sharing this.

    I am truly moved and touched with the advice I am still attempting to learn all of this myself it seems very complex but with time I’m sure I’ll get it too . The value part really stuck out because you get so frustrated at times ; you kept it so real ; thank you I needed that part to complete my puzzle so for that missing piece to my puzzle I greatly appreciate you for ; others were telling me in code I didn’t get it ; you gave me street example on my level of understanding and I get it …from Mississippi love

    Happy New Year! You did it again Lewis! This was a great interview. I absorbed all of it...I kept looking at how much time had passed but the time was moving really slow for how much information I feel I had already heard...It was this way til the end! Normally a slow-moving video gets canceled, but Leon was storytelling! It was captivating. It should be a movie!. As a visual learner I was able to create the story in my head as he shared it! . Bravo! Bravo! This video should be mandatory viewing going into prison! lol

    Thank you, Lewis, for introducing me to Wallstreet Trapper . I am completely amazed at his story and felt a connection when he talked about classism vs racism. I am a black female that now have another person of the same race to tune into and look up to for going through human struggles and evolving into an angelic spiritual being.

    From the Fiji Islands. I can’t stop listening to this interview over and over again - I had to rewind a few mins to get that words and relate to my present moment.
    Love those 3 advice. 1) Being Mentored 2) what we consume is what we present to the world.
    3) Being still - Meditation.
    Love this and am grateful that I subscribed to your channel Lewis.
