Famous author makes two appearances at JB Charleston

ellieKAY

Author, Speaker, Financial Adviser, Educator, Mother Ellie Kay is the founder and CEO of Heroes at Home, a 501(c)(3) that provides financial literacy to our military members. Author of a fifteen books, popular speaker, corporate educator and spokesperson, and mother of seven children—five by birth, two by marriage, and all by love—Ellie Kay has walked her own financial talk and knows what it’s like to be strapped for cash and struggling. Within two and a half years, she went from being a new wife and stepmom to two children with $40,000 in consumer debt to being completely debt-free—all on one military income. Within 15 years and while adding five more children to the family, Ellie and her husband were able to pay cash for their cars, buy and furnish two five-bedroom homes (one after selling the other), take wonderful vacations, dress fashionably, build a nest egg for retirement, send the kids to college loan-free, and give away more than $100,000 to nonprofit organizations around the world.
