Picture THIS.

You wake up at 8 am. Grab a coffee and instantly feel the relief of no longer being stressed out about money. Your financial future is secured, and you’re building generational wealth for your family on autopilot.

You’re able to spend the next few hours pursuing that passion project, working at a job that’s rewarding, or even having a lazy morning with your kids because, let’s face it - they won’t be young for long.

Maybe you’re able to book a vacation without having to worry about credit card debt or missing out on income. 

Most importantly, your money is working hard for itself, and you understand investing and the stock market like never before. You can now take the latest market news and apply it to your personal investment strategy with ease.

Right now, you probably have a lot of questions about investing, and that’s understandable. When I first got started, I was afraid that I would never have enough to invest and didn’t know where to start.

After working as a financial advisor, I learned that there were smart, simple ways to reduce the odds that I would lose money in the market. I created a comprehensive program to help you do the same.


Are you confused about what investing account to open? I’ve been there. 
Have you tried investing before but lost money? I have been there, too. 

I bought my very first stock in 2010, and I’ve been helping others grow their wealth through the stock market ever since. 

Today, I’ve helped my students and clients invest over $140 million. 

Today, I know what it takes to find the right investments and protect your portfolio.  

But back in 2010, things were different. I just completed my internship at an investment firm in NYC. After 10 weeks on Wall Street, I was still confused about how the stock market worked, what to invest in, and how to start investing on my own. 

There I was at the center of the finance world, literally on Wall Street and couldn’t figure out how to invest on my own. I read all the books and watched all the videos, but when it came time to open my account, I would get lost and second-guess myself. 

That’s when I learned I didn’t need to grasp everything overnight. I knew that if I could start to master just 1-2 topics at a time, I could slowly grow my investing knowledge base. 

Four years later, I would find myself in New York working as a financial advisor, helping people understand the stock market by breaking their investing goals down into simple, easy-to-follow steps. 

That process started to catch on. By 2017, I was named one of the top 100 Most Influential Financial Advisers by Investopedia. My simple process to the stock market works.  

You’ve been looking for ways to grow your wealth, find profitable stocks, and protect your funds in a down market. And now you’re ready to learn an investing process that you can actually follow.

Every smart investor relies on many strategies, market indicators and confirmation when investing in the markets. The Investor Toolkit carries its weight in value. Kevin has proven himself to me over and over that if one can just plug in to his course, be coachable, teachable and follow instructions, one can become a very profitable investor in the stock market. I’m a baby boomer, and knew some things about investing before signing up several months ago to join Kevin’s program. Now my knowledge, confidence and decision making on whether or not to get into a stock investment has skyrocketed as well as my stock portfolio. I’m very thankful I found Kevin, and made the decision to sign up for one of his courses. I highly recommend any of Kevin’s courses. You will not be dissatisfied with joining the family!

More From Our Students

"I was a newbie to the market before I met you, and I decided it was time to find someone who didn’t mind sharing his knowledge. I knew about the stock market from TV and social media, but my friends and family were clueless.
You helped me understand fidelity and how to open an account as well. I have learned about fractional shares, stocks, stock language and numerous platforms to invest on. I own at least 10 different stocks totaling over $30,000. I will be retiring in July, and I plan on learning even more. You are a very knowledgeable young man who has changed the trajectory of my life. Thanks for sharing your gift."

-Robyn R.


"Wow!!! The course opened my eyes to being more intentional and responsible about how I can increase my earning power/gains with minimal loss. I make sure I research and follow the market closely (not daily) by using the tools you’ve taught. (EX. OF ONE- 6 -12 months reviews) It works!!
 
I retired during the pandemic. I tell you the tools received helped me to make 6 times on 1 stock alone. Therefore, I knew to sell some and hold a few shares. Because the stock is still good and it did drop. I’m still on the upside.  
 
So, I’m looking forward to more gains and enjoying my retirement. Now, I’m passing along Building Bread knowledge so my child and her children’s children shall have a place if you will in the race"


-Donna H.
Have you said, “I really want to start investing, but I don’t know where to start,” or “I want to invest, but I am too afraid of losing money?”

This is exactly where I was and when I realized these TWO things, everything changed.  


#1: You DON’T need to be an investing expert on day one. 

You can be a successful investor by simply understanding the basics. You don’t need a finance degree and you don’t need to spend time learning about complex charts. 


#2: The success of your investing efforts is NOT about money. It is about your investing process. Either you have the right steps and process to create consistent success, or you don’t. 

When finding companies, it comes down to CRAMM. 

C-ompany Stack 
R-ecuring Revenue 
A-ll-Star Factor 
M-ind Reading Products 
M-omentum 

Once I learned how to apply CRAMM, I was able to quickly identify which companies had the highest rate of success. 

It is a simple formula that makes it easy to analyze and understand what to invest in and what to avoid. 


Here’s what happened after I learned how to invest…

  • MY NET WORTH GREW: The stock market is one of the most effective ways to grow your net worth even if you’re not starting out with a lot of money. 
  • CREATED PASSIVE INCOME: You can increase your income when the market is up or down. These tactics are what helped me to buy my first home. 
  • SET MY CHILDREN UP TO BECOME MILLIONAIRES: Create generational wealth opportunities for others and give them the head start that you wish you had. 


What if I’ve never invested before?

You can still be a successful investor with The Investor’s Toolkit as a beginner. The investing process that I show you works regardless of experience and is designed to meet you where you are as.

✓The risk questionnaire will help us classify you as an investor, and we will use this as a guide to help you find investments that work best for you.

✓Kevin’s Monthly Stock List and Step-By-Step Investing Guide is a shortcut that you can use to take immediate action.

✓The CRAMM framework helps you to identify strong stocks that you can hold for the long-term.

3 Reasons to Enroll in The Investor’s Toolkit 3.0

1. Financial advisors can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,500 per year

It’s no secret that meeting with a financial advisor to discuss your situation and investment options is not cheap. As someone who used to work with clients to manage their assets, it’s not unheard of for a one-time financial plan to cost anywhere from $100 to $400 or even 1% of your assets under management. Enrolling in the Investor’s Toolkit 2.0 will actually save you money when you think long-term.

2. Education is the first step

If you want to get a positive return on your investments consistently, this won’t happen by accident. You’ll need to carefully evaluate and choose the best stocks for your portfolio. To do that, you need to be educated on how the market works. At the end of the day, it all comes down to a combination of knowledge, experience, and effort. You’ll gain all three of these as you go through this program.

3. It’s your financial journey. Set your own pace

We’re all busy and I always want to respect your time. That’s why I’ve taken my years of experience along with tested and proven strategies to boil down some key steps you can follow to see investing success. There’s no fluff in the Investor’s Toolkit and the lessons are detailed but also easy to digest and implement.

I’ve also filtered through the absolute best resources to recommend since I know they will help you reach your goals. You can work at your own pace and most students have the course completed within 2 to 8 weeks depending on their schedule and goals.

The Investor’s Toolkit is for you if:

  • You have unrealistic expectations about trading stocks
  • You’re not interested in following a step-by-step process to help you choose and set up your investment accounts, evaluate your picks, and avoid overall risk
  • You’re comfortable with making excuses and not doing the work

FAQ

  • How long will I have access?

    How does lifetime access sound? Once you enroll, you’ll have unlimited access to the course material that never expires.

  • How long will it take to go through the course material?

    The Investor’s Toolkit 3.0 is a self-paced online course that you can go through on your own time. This means you can complete the course based on your schedule and goals. Most students who actively go through the course tend to finish it within 2 to 8 weeks.

  • Is there homework or action steps I need to complete?

    Yes, there are action steps that you can complete at your own pace. This ‘homework’ will really help you grasp the investing concepts and strategies you’re learning in the course and contribute to your success.

  • How much should I invest to get started?

    That’s the thing with investing - you should start with however much you feel comfortable with. I have had students start with as little as $100 and as much as $150,000.

  • Will I actually make money?

    While we cannot predict market performance, we know the process works if followed closely and given enough time to succeed. With Trade Check, you will have the opportunity to send your investing ideas directly to your instructor to review to increase your odds.

  • Will this course help me if I’m just getting started later on in life?

    Yes. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what phase of life you’re in. The process we follow in this course will work regardless and you’ll be putting your money to work the right way. Also, it’s best not to compare yourself to other investors since it’s like comparing apples to oranges. Everyone who goes through this course might not start at the same age or with the same starting investment. However, it’s your journey to own and you’ll be able to compare where you started to where you end up 1 year or 5 years from now.

  • Is there a money-back guarantee?

    No. This is a digital course and when you enroll you’ll gain full access to all the material. Consequently, there are no refunds and there is nothing for you to return.

  • Do you have a Facebook group? How can I reach you if I have questions?

    If you pay in full when you enroll, there are monthly Q & A calls you can attend to get more support and coaching specific to your situation. Students can also email me with any questions and I usually reply within 48 hours.

You Work Hard For Your Money.

Let Me Show You How to Invest It Wisely.

Ultimately, there are only routes you can take if you’re on the path to learning more about how to invest.

Option 1: Stay on the fence and keep doing what you’ve been doing. Maybe you’ll see a breakthrough or find an alternative investing resource. Or, maybe you won’t, and you could lose a lot of money in the stock market as well as your time. In the best-case scenario, it could take you a few years to learn the step-by-step processes outlined in this course on your own.

Option 2: Enroll and start moving closer toward your goal post when it comes to investing with confidence. You’ll have access to the full blueprint guide on investing, a step-by-step workbook to help you stay on track, as well as a list of handpicked stocks (by me) and the option for monthly Q and A calls. When it comes to investing your money, time is one of the most crucial assets, and it waits for no one. If you’re ready, click the button below to enroll. I can’t wait to see you in the course.
