The Blueprint for Generational Wealth—A Personal Reflection on My Father’s Financial Masterpiece

-





 By Kylie Thomas


Growing up, I had a front-row seat to a lesson most people spend a lifetime trying to learn—how to build real, lasting wealth. Not the kind of wealth that comes and goes with a good job or a market boom, but the kind built on discipline, strategy, and the unwavering belief that no matter where you start, you can finish wealthy.


That’s the legacy my father, Dr. Gregory A. Thomas, is leaving through his groundbreaking new series, The Wealth Blueprint Series. Over the next year, this six-part financial education collection will guide readers from their very first investment to mastering advanced strategies once reserved for Wall Street boardrooms.


As his daughter, I’ve seen firsthand the heart behind this work. My father built Carbonado Capital Investments into a $700 million hedge fund during some of the most volatile financial periods in history—including the COVID-19 pandemic. While the world panicked, he remained calm. He didn’t just protect wealth; he grew it. And now, he’s making that same knowledge accessible to everyone.



A Roadmap for Every Stage of Wealth Building

Each book in The Wealth Blueprint Series is designed for a specific stage of the financial journey:


  1. Investing for Beginners: Diversifying Is a Must (Available Now)
    Learn the foundations of investing and why diversification is your best defense against uncertainty.
  2. Advanced Investing Strategies: Beyond Stocks and Bonds (Coming Summer 2025)
    For those ready to unlock high-level investing strategies, from private equity to alternative markets.
  3. Mastering Wealth Psychology: How Millionaires Think and Act (Coming Fall 2025)
    Break mental barriers and create the mindset that attracts wealth and success.
  4. Retirement Riches: How to Retire Early and Live Well Forever (Winter 2025)
    A step-by-step plan for achieving financial independence and enjoying a stress-free retirement.
  5. Tax Secrets of the Wealthy: How to Keep More of What You Earn (Spring 2026)
    Learn how the wealthy legally minimize taxes and protect their earnings through strategic planning.
  6. The Entrepreneur’s Financial Playbook: Build, Scale, and Exit Like a Hedge Fund Manager (Summer 2026)
    Master the business side of wealth, from startup funding to profitable exits.



Why This Series Matters

In a world obsessed with overnight success, my father’s message is refreshingly different: Wealth isn’t built overnight. It’s built over time—one smart decision at a time.

Through this series, he isn’t just sharing theories. He’s opening the vault to the exact strategies that helped him build businesses, manage a multi-million-dollar hedge fund, and mentor thousands—including people society often overlooks.


“I don’t just teach wealth; I teach freedom,” my father often says. And freedom is exactly what these books offer—freedom from financial anxiety, freedom from paycheck-to-paycheck living, and freedom to build a life you control.


I couldn’t be more proud to share this series with the world. If you’re serious about changing your financial future, start here. Because with the right blueprint, wealth isn’t just possible—it’s inevitable.

Strategic Foundations: How I Built Carbonado From the beginning, I knew Carbonado Capital needed to be different. I built it on five key principles: Macro-Aware Allocation – Every investment begins with a top-down macroeconomic analysis.

  By Carla Mendosa, Financial Columnist In a world fueled by algorithmic trades, geopolitical headlines, and social media hysteria, it’s easy to feel like every market fluctuation is a signal to act. But for one of the country’s most forward-thinking investment strategists, this week’s market jitters are not a cause for panic—but a call for perspective. “The stock market is not broken.
