Aloha curiosity seekers! What does maalamamala mean? Besides being a Hawaiian word that means light of knowledge, brilliance, enlightenment, and clear perception, it is the site of an imminent launch of a comprehensive online education academy, skwealthacademy (smartknowledge wealth academy) that is the result of more than 10 years of blood, sweat and tears that will forever change how we think about education. skwealthacademy is a complete online education academy of 20 courses that specifically address nine pillars of education and wealth building that I’ve identified as being nearly entirely absent both in modern academic classrooms and in all global academic business programs today.

I elaborate on reasons why those economically and politically in power in all nations are so intent on ensuring that these 3 elements are missing from all of our lives, the tactics deployed by them to ensure their absence in our lives, and the steps we can take to ensure that we embrace these elements and live a unique life distinct from the rest of society.
