Wall Family Legacy
The Wall family was a vital part of creating and supporting businesses in Myrtle Beach and Conway, South Carolina. Both E. Craig Wall Senior and Junior were very successful in business, serving the local community and contributing to parts of higher education that would have a profound impact on many students.
Here at Co/Investor Club, majority of our team is comprised of Coastal Carolina students, alum and Wall Fellows - A leadership and professional development program created by E. Craig Wall Junior. The Wall Family has left a remarkable legacy in career leadership, philanthropic efforts and education.

Give It Away to Get It Back
“There is a wonderful, almost mystical, law of nature that says three of the things we want most—happiness, freedom, and peace of mind—are always attained when we give them to others. Give it away to get it back.” —John Wooden
Newton's Third Law—for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction—applies to human affairs as much to the affairs of physics. If you want people to treat you with kindness, trust, and respect, treat other people with those same qualities. If you don’t, and instead treat people with negativity and distrust, don’t be surprised if negativity and distrust are how you are treated in return.
As shown by people like the Wall Family in our feature above, there are plenty of ways to give. Even if one gives with no expectation of receiving anything in return—whether by giving time, money, or an honest compliment—the reciprocation that comes back to the giver is often amplified. Building an organization around giving and treating everyone involved with the utmost respect and care can create a level of durability and success that is hard to predict ahead of time.
