The Keating Standard: Creating and Protecting a Financial Legacy

Welcome to The Keating Standard

In today’s world, building wealth is only half the battle—protecting it is just as important. With cyber threats, financial scams, and poor money habits lurking around every corner, it’s not enough just to earn and invest. You need to safeguard what you’ve built.

That’s why I’m sharing The Keating Standard—which will be your guide to financial and digital security.

With my background in cybersecurity and finance, I’ve seen firsthand how quickly wealth can disappear if it isn’t protected—or worse, how much is lost to opportunity cost simply by not putting money to work. I’ve watched people fall victim to online scams that drain their accounts and make investment mistakes that erase years of savings. Just as damaging is the money that sits idle, losing value to inflation rather than working for you. Every dollar left unprotected or unused is costing you in missed opportunity to build real wealth. The problem isn’t that people are bad with money—it’s that they weren’t prepared with the right strategy.

I’m on a mission to change that by arming families and their loved ones with the knowledge and tools to protect themselves and their finances.

Why Financial and Digital Security Matter More Than Ever

Imagine you’re living in the Wild West of the 1800s. You’ve spent years working hard, saving every dollar, and finally, you deposit your gold and cash into the town’s only bank. You trust it’s safe because the bank has thick walls, a steel vault, and an armed guard at the front door.

But one night, a notorious gang of bank robbers comes rolling into town. They’re not amateurs—they’ve been watching, planning, and know exactly when and how to strike. If the bank hasn’t taken the proper precautions—no reinforcements, no security at night, no plan for an attack—your hard-earned fortune is stolen in minutes.

Now, back to the present. Cybercriminals are modern-day bank robbers. They don’t ride in on horses or use dynamite to crack safes; instead, they use phishing emails, weak passwords, and unprotected accounts to empty bank balances, steal identities, and hijack financial assets.

🔹 Your investments can be stolen if you fall victim to identity theft or financial fraud.

🔹 All the budgeting in the world won’t help if a single ransomware attack locks you out of your financials.

🔹 A six-figure salary won’t build wealth if you don’t know how to manage, save, and grow it.

The Keating Standard provides straightforward guides enabling anyone to attain the highest level of protection.
