A Legacy of Protection:

Inspired by My Great Grandmother, my Grandfather and Red the Ox

At just 16 years old, my grandfather was the only man in his community to own an ox. He named him Red—a powerful, steady force that helped him farm the land and provide for his family.

Through every season, every hardship, and every harvest, my grandfather stood strong, ensuring that his loved ones were never without.

His strength wasn’t just in his hands but in his heart. He carried the weight of responsibility with unwavering dedication, teaching me that true success isn’t just about what you achieve—it’s about who you protect along the way.

Just as he used Red to secure his family’s future, I have made it my mission to help others do the same—ensuring that families are financially protected, prepared, and empowered for whatever lies ahead.

Because true security isn’t just about today—it’s about safeguarding tomorrow. And just like my grandfather, I stand ready to help others protect what matters most.

Hello, my name is Carlton Kornegay

Licensed Life Insurance Agent Primerica Financial Services

I’m more than just an insurance agent—I’m a father of three, a serial entrepreneur, and a U.S. Army Persian Gulf War veteran who has walked many paths in life.

Every journey I’ve taken has shaped who I am today and fueled my passion for helping others secure their financial future.

From launching businesses—including pressure washing, commercial cleaning, a consignment store featuring gold and diamond jewelry, clothing, and electronics—to being a trucking company owner-operator and managing a multi-million-dollar-per-year jewelry store, I’ve seen firsthand how financial security (or the lack of it) can impact families.

One powerful lesson stands out from all my experiences: no matter what industry you’re in, financial protection is the foundation of lasting success.

That’s why I became an independent insurance contractor with Primerica Financial Services—to help truckers, families, and business owners protect their income, secure their assets, and build generational wealth.

My mission is to be your partner in shifting towards a secure financial future.

We provide reliable, cost-effective insurance coverage, ensuring that truckers and their families are protected, allowing them to focus on what matters most, both on the road and at home.

We believe that with the right mindset and support, anyone can turn their goals into real results and keep growing positively, and we’re here to provide that support through secure financial planning.
