He began his business career in the music world, forming a band called "Chuck Givens and the Quintones" as a young man and making more money during weekend gigs than he did during his normal day job at the local foundry. He later penned the famous single, "Hang On Sloopy". He briefly pursued his own recording business, but lost it all in an uninsured fire.
As Givens' business savvy matured, he formed his own company to teach his hard-learned success strategies to others. The focus of his efforts shifted primarily to readily usable financial strategies accessible by common people. The stated mission of his company, the Charles J.

His company policy offered a money-back guarantee to new members: If they attempted to use the strategies within 30 days of purchase and failed to save the cost of their initial membership fee, then they could obtain a refund of that fee. At the peak of his career, the cost of joining the CJGO was roughly $400 per family.
