The Way2Wealth: Becoming Healthy, Wealthy, Wise and Happy with Managing Director of Carson Wealth, Serial Entrepreneur, and Author Scott Ford
Description
Do you want to know the main ingredients for a successful life?
In this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I have Scott Ford, a serial entrepreneur, and author. Scott shares his four-piece framework, which is being healthy, wealthy, wise, and happy. He also shares his financial strategies for managing businesses and building a family legacy that will last and grow for generations.
Scott's entrepreneurial spirit began as a young child when he would perform magic shows at friends’ birthday parties. From there, it has unfolded into the successful businessman he is today.
His father’s philosophy that small businesses and entrepreneurship are the backbones of the economy triggered him to create the business mindset that has helped him help countless others.
Early in his financial career as an insurance salesman, Scott saw that many of the business owners he served didn’t know how to manage money and thus did not experience true freedom in their lives. His own father was a successful businessman, but unfortunately, he never found financial freedom and often worried about money. This led Scott to devote his life to helping business owners pursue true wealth.
Today, Scott is a Managing Director, Partner, and Wealth Advisor at Carson Wealth, serving entrepreneurs, small business owners, executives, and families. The firm specializes in comprehensive wealth management using its Way2Wealth proprietary process. His personal and proactive approach is designed to bring clarity and simplicity to the complex issues of financial management. He is also the co-founder and author of Legado Family, which helps families upgrade their relationships, enhance lasting ties, and strengthen bonds.
He has published three books, including Financial Jiu-Jitsu: A Fighter’s Guide to Conquering Your Finances, The Widow’s Wealth Map: Six Steps to Beginning Again, and the New York Times Bestseller, The Sustainable Edge: Fifteen Minutes a Week to a Richer Entrepreneurial Life.
