Tony Clark

I've been studying personal finance my whole life and got a degree in it from Indiana University. I am a former Financial Advisor and money manager with a banking and investment background. I have a passion for personal finance, games, and have conducted seminars. I've also taught my kids, others, and volunteered with both Junior Achievement and the local schools on working with kids in the area of finance and entrepreneurship. I've created my own financial literary course. Recently, I've launched a game company with my son (All-Nighter Games), presented at GenCon Indy with 80K people and we hope it is only the beginning of a fun, educational, and inspirational way to help others become more confident and better stewards, as the world of finance become increasingly more exciting and complex. Currently, we are partnering with Purdue University Fort Wayne to aid in graphic design of our table top stock market game that we are hoping to launch later this year.

I have surrounded myself throughout my life with entrepreneurs both in Fort Wayne and Indianapolis, including my son Isaiah Clark, whom is only 17 years old and attending with me and was named Entrepreneur of the Year in the NE corner of Indiana. Isaiah Clark is a budding entrepreneur as he was named "Lemonade Champion" in an entrepreneur contest as a young kid and won awards from both Chase and IBM, this is what really ignited his passion for being an entrepreneur.

Other than my finance and entrepreneur background, I am extremely passionate about wildlife and nature. I have planned and led our family to 36 National Parks across our country, participated in a variety of eco activities and explored pretty much all terrains. I've built my own little nature preserve and park on our property (4 acres) consulting with Purdue Co-Op and our local zoo to learn and put in native plants and trees (I've planted over 100 trees).

One day, I would love to blend my passion for investing and nature to better help our planet, but I haven't got there yet.
