Kofi Asante-Bridges

After nearly two decades managing cardiac care units in Atlanta, Kofi Asante-Bridges walked away from hospital administration in 2019 with a spreadsheet, a brokerage account, and a stubborn conviction that wealth-building advice sounds nothing like how real families actually talk about money. Raised between Accra and suburban Maryland, he draws on both his grandmother's informal savings circles and his own hard-won lessons rebalancing a portfolio mid-career to write about growing wealth in plain, honest language. These days he works from his home office in Decatur, Georgia, where his teenage kids occasionally wander in and accidentally become the best teaching examples he never planned.
