In the video, we see the outstanding eight-year-old recanting and explaining hard-to-grasp concepts/terms such as liabilities, entrepreneurship, commercial real estate among others.
When asked about his son’s financial literacy training, 28-year-old father Kyren told FOX Business that, “I want him to know the actual words, and it’s not a foreign language. I’m going to teach my son everything I can possibly teach him now.”

As a result of the amazing nature of the video, it has been reshared on all mediums of social media by a multitude of celebrities, including hedge fund manager Clifford Asness. Asness wrote on his Twitter account, “If this kid, and only this kid, told me to abandon systematic value investing, I just might consider it.”
Kyren, who is a fitness instructor in North Carolina, feels that these are “real world” conversations that should not wait until Kyng is a teenager to have; therefore, he is well ahead of the curve!
You may think that Kyng wants to go into finance when he grows up, right? Well, maybe as a side gig. When asked by FOX Business what he wanted to be when he grew up, Kyng responded either president or a firefighter, “because I want to inspire people and make people happy.” Kyng thought about it for a minute then added, “And I want to be a tycoon and run a lot of things.”
We have no idea that he is on the right path. Make sure to follow this amazing young man on Instagram. His journey has unquestionably just begun.
