In my last post, I promised to update everyone regarding my latest venture that has been keeping me so busy. Basically, I've been busy editing all materials for the launch of my complete 20 course online academy, skwealthacademy, in a few weeks. I have also created accompanying audio files of all courses, which has required literally months of recording hours, and this work has resulted in non-stop 14-hour days for the past year which is the reason for my absence from my steemit account. The eventual skwealthacademy online launch will occur at the website maalamalama.com, so I wanted to explain the meaning of maalamalama.
So...what exactly does maalamamala mean? Besides being a Hawaiian word that means light of knowledge, brilliance, enlightenment, and clear perception, it is the site of an imminent launch of a comprehensive online education academy, skwealthacademy (smartknowledge wealth academy) that is the result of more than 10 years of blood, sweat and tears that will forever change how we think about education. skwealthacademy is a complete online education academy of 20 courses that specifically address nine pillars of education and wealth building that I’ve identified as being nearly entirely absent both in modern academic classrooms and in all global academic business programs today. Though my university entrance examination scores in the top 98.5% percentile of the United States granted me admission to, and graduation from, a prestigious Ivy League university, as well as admission into two additional Master degree programs, including an MBA program, I found my multiple academic degrees to be terribly inadequate in preparing me for success in the real world, and nearly entirely useless in the pursuit of my own entrepreneurial endeavors. Among the elements critical to education that are largely absent in academic classrooms are the following four pillars: (1) critical thinking development; (2) ethical and moral responsibility in the pursuit of business profits instead of the pursuit of profits over all ethical considerations; (3) critical differences between unsound fiat currencies and sound money, and how the platform of fiat currencies contributes to the persistence of great suffering in the form of global poverty and hunger; (4) the bridging of the massive gap between knowledge dispensed inside academic classrooms and knowledge that can be applied in the real world; and (5) the identification of life purpose as a viable goal to replace materialistic pursuits that have created elevated levels of loneliness, anxiety and opioid dependence in developed nations all around the world. Of course my 20 skwealthacademy cover much more than just these five topics, as many of my courses are devoted specifically to wealth strategies, including gold and silver investment strategies that will enable one to build wealth during the great global economic crisis that is on the verge of manifesting now and that will manifest sometime between 2019 and 2024. However, these five important concepts serve as the foundation of all the courses offered in my online academy.
