"Not everyone's gonna meet a billionaire like I did!" - DIVINE on financial empowerment
In this section of the podcast, DIVINE elaborates on the various services offered by his company, Solvent, which includes assistance with bank accounts, debit cards, as well as credit repair and building tools. These services are particularly catered to individuals affected by poverty, mass incarceration, and mental health issues associated with being formerly incarcerated. DIVINE shares his own experiences of coming from poverty, being incarcerated, and making money in the streets but not having financial empowerment due to a lack of financial literacy. He talks about seeing a lot of money but not understanding how to optimize his financial life. Solvent, he explains, is the result of taking his personal journey and 'productizing' it into a system that others can follow to achieve success. DIVINE briefly mentions his life-changing encounter with a billionaire and his intention to impart the knowledge he gained from that experience to others who may not have the same opportunity.
