Check out the great conversation “What Is Man Without Money?” with Dr. Vibe, Albert Okagbue, Derek Idbleberg Jr. and John McElhenney
Thanks to the The Good Men Project for providing this opportunity for men to share.

Join CPA Albert Okagbue and host Dr. Vibe via The Good Men Project Google+ Hangout live tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern/6 p.m. Pacific where they will be talking about men and money – what it means to have it- and to not- and to discuss the changing roles of men in families where more wives are working, and many dads are home with the kids.
