Ryan Leslie has built, lost, and rebuilt wealth more than once. What emerged wasn’t a formula for making money fast, but a framework for building wealth that lasts—rooted in strategy, mentorship, and long-term thinking.

Formed Through Real Life Experiences

Ryan did not grow up wealthy. His parents were officers in the Salvation Army, and some of his earliest memories involved serving families with even less than his own. Those experiences revealed a truth that would take years to fully understand: intelligence, talent, and hard work alone are not enough to change a family’s financial trajectory.

At fifteen, Ryan entered Harvard University as the youngest person in every room. Outside the classroom, he built Shady 8’s—a makeshift barbershop in his dorm room that became a hub for service, community, and creative feedback. What began as an eight-dollar haircut quietly became his first lesson in demand, value, and ecosystem building.

Those early experiments laid the foundation for everything that followed.

The Reckoning

Despite global success as a producer and entrepreneur, Ryan learned the hard way that income does not equal security.

He has faced frozen accounts, devastating financial losses, and moments where fame, talent, and past success offered no protection. At one point, he woke up millions of dollars in debt. At another, he lost what would be the equivalent of hundreds of millions in a single catastrophic event.

What saved his financial life wasn’t earning more—it was learning how wealth actually works. Strategic investing. Emotional discipline. And mentors who were far ahead in the game and willing to reach back.

Those lessons became non-negotiable.

The WealthPlan Way

The WealthPlan Club is not a hype-driven investing group. It’s a system for people ready to move with clarity instead of fear.

Real wealth is built by mastering three forces:

Capital — how it’s accessed, structured, deployed, and controlled
Time — how to stay in the game long enough for compounding to work
Emotions — how to execute strategy through volatility, pressure, and uncertainty

The Club exists to help members shift from survival to stability—and from stability to financial sovereignty—through education, mentorship, and community.

No one is coming to save you.
But you don’t have to build alone.

The WealthPlan Club is for those ready to stop guessing and start building with intention—for themselves, and for generations to come.
