Porter has had to financially and socially pay off debt that his younger self cashed. After paying back multiple credit cards, vehicles, loans, relationships, and ignorance in an effort to better identify goals, identity and purpose, he finally figured it out. Relying heavily on his experiences in the U.S. Marine Corps infantry, he learned how to better communicate as a person, ironically as that may sound. Porter has continued to work through stressors and personal demons, learning to better cope and communicate in the process. No matter the amount of money paid or social currency spent, the wealth he found is in identifying values to create a personal culture, and letting that culture guide his growth strategy.
