HIS STORY:

LaFleur was born and raised in financially deprived area of Lake Charles, La., where he found himself married with a child at the age of 19 years old to a bride who was only 17 years old starting her senior year of high school. At that young age, they had no idea of what life would bring. By the age of 29, they found themselves financially broke and bankrupt, but they were living the American dream. At that point, they decided to dive into financial literacy to ensure they would never end up like that again. By age 35, they had improved their financial position and set a goal to be millionaires by age 50 so he could retire. As they set out on this quest being very intentional, they hit millionaire status at the age of 48 and multi-millionaire status by the age of 50. That allowed Cedrick to retire from his corporate job and launch out on his quest to help build the next level leaders.
