95. Scott Ford: The Way to Wealth

Tune in to hear my conversation with Scott Ford, co-founder of Legado Family and host of The Way2Wealth podcast. Scott’s entrepreneurial spirit began as a young child when he would perform magic shows at friends’ birthday parties. And, from there, it has unfolded into the successful businessman he is today. Early in Scott’s career as an insurance salesman, he witnessed many business owners lack the knowledge of money management and miss out on opportunities to maximize their earning potential. Because of this, Scott made it his mission to help other business owners pursue true wealth to experience financial freedom. Today, Scott is Managing Director, Partner & Wealth Advisor of Carson Wealth in Hagerstown, MD and Johnson City, TN. He is a Registered Financial Consultant (RFC) and has been an active Financial Technical Analyst since 2005. His firm specializes in comprehensive wealth management with his Way2Wealth® proprietary process. His talents don’t stop there. He has also 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: 15 Minutes a Week to a Richer Entrepreneurial Life. Scott is living proof that with a determined mindset, entrepreneurial and family success is possible. This is a public episode.
