In this episode of Perspektives with Bank, Big Bank sits down with Troy Millings and Rashad Bilal, the founders of Earn Your Leisure, to preview Invest Fest and discuss how the event has evolved into one of the largest gatherings focused on entrepreneurship, investing, financial literacy, and wealth building. They break down the philosophy behind their "90/10" formula—leveraging celebrity appearances to attract audiences while placing the spotlight on education, networking, and expert-led conversations that deliver real value. The trio also discusses the importance of supporting small businesses through Invest Fest's expansive vendor marketplace, where hundreds of entrepreneurs have the opportunity to connect directly with customers and keep 100% of their sales.

The conversation expands into the principles that have sustained Troy and Rashad's three-decade friendship and business partnership, highlighting loyalty, ethics, consistency, and creating opportunities for others as the foundation of long-term success. They also examine the rise of toxic internet culture, the impact of bots and negativity on social media, and why meaningful content will always outlast controversy. Looking ahead, the founders share the vision behind Earn Your Leisure, Market Mondays, and Black Out, while discussing upcoming initiatives like a financial literacy curriculum for schools, EYL Africa, and the growing importance of artificial intelligence, financial education, and technology skills in preparing the next generation for the future.
