Honoring Our Legacy, Securing Your Future

Our Mission

At 40AM Capital, we are inspired by the unfulfilled promise of "40 acres and a mule"—a symbol of economic justice denied to Black Americans. Our mission is to bridge that gap by empowering you to achieve financial independence and build generational wealth. We provide personalized strategies, tools, and education to help you create your own economic freedom.

Though our foundation is rooted in addressing wealth disparities for Black Americans, our services are designed to uplift everyone seeking to secure their financial future. At 40AM Capital, we believe in financial empowerment for all.

How 40AM Capital Began

I’m DeWayne Gordon, and I founded 40AM Capital to transform the unfulfilled promise of "40 acres and a mule" into a modern movement for financial empowerment. With over 20 years of experience in Finance & Accounting, Risk Management, and Transformation, I’ve witnessed firsthand how strategic financial coaching can create lasting change.

At 40AM Capital, our mission is to help you and your family build financial legacies that will impact generations. We’re dedicated to equipping you with the strategies and knowledge to achieve financial independence.

Because financial independence isn’t just a destination—it’s a legacy. And together, we’ll help you build that legacy for yourself and your community.

The Financial Landscape We're Transforming

The economic challenges facing Black Americans are both systemic and deeply ingrained. From the wealth gap to limited access to financial resources, these barriers have created a difficult financial landscape—but with the right guidance, transformation is possible.

The statistics may be stark, but with the proper support, they can be changed. At 40AM Capital, we believe that by empowering individuals, we can reshape not only financial futures but entire communities.

Together, we can turn these challenges into opportunities for growth, financial security, and lasting generational success.
