Spinks shuns family fighting prowess for wealth building.
Gerard Spinks, relative of current welterweight champion Corey Spinks, Corey's father Leon Spinks, and Uncle Michael Spinks, shuns the family fighting history and measures his battles in the business ring. Gerard is a self-proclaimed "Serial Entrepreneur". He says, "I can't help creating new businesses and new ideas to build financial wealth and financial freedom for myself and my family." This version of the Spinks clan runs a real estate investment business, is the author of a best selling book entitled "How To Be Rich, Nigga", and operates a software development and engineering firm in Atlanta, GA.

The Spinks clan is known throughout the world for its fighting and boxing capabilities. Corey Spinks is the latest fighter in the family line of great fighters. Gerard Spinks is a fighter; however in a different sense of the word.
Gerard describes growing up in the Spinks family as fun, exciting, financially challenging, and very humbling. Although he received a full scholarship to play college football as a quarterback, this version of the Spinks' decided that his battles were outside of the ring and in the business world.
Gerard Spinks is a self described "serial entrepreneur". He fights everyday to win business and grow his personal empire. He runs a real estate investment business, is the author of the best selling "How To Be Rich, Nigga" series of money educational books for ghetto youth, and manages a software development company.
Gerard Spinks loves what his family has created and admires the legacy of the Spinks name. He wants that legacy to transfer over into the entrepreneurial world and sees himself as a business fighter. "Boxing is what I originally loved as I watched Michael and Leon win the Olympics as a kid. I wanted to be just like them and would pretend to box and ask my moms to box all the time. I wanted to fight so badly that I would sometimes go search for a fight in my neighborhood with so-called neighborhood thugs."
Gerard Spinks would eventually change his whole life around after playing football at The University of Texas Arlington. He was a standout quarterback and nearly went on to play professional football. After being told repeatedly that he wasn't tall enough to play quarterback, he settled on becoming driven to fight corporate battles and excel as a software engineer and company owner in the Silicon Valley, CA.
He signed up clients including Cisco Systems, Oracle, SEGA, Lucas Arts and Film, Verizon Wireless, and Logitech Corporation. He made millions of dollars in income in the Silicon Valley and is now a prominent author and writer of the "How To Be Rich, Nigga" book series.
"I have to fight each and everyday to excel and perform well in the business world. My drive is wealth, plain and simple, no apologies. I seek financial, spiritual, and emotional wealth. I wish to grow my businesses and amass millions of dollars to pass on to family members and help others achieve wealth along the way."
