About Scott

 

Scott Ford was born an entrepreneur. In fact, he started his first business in middle school! Like all entrepreneurs, he found a passion and then found a way to turn it into a business. Scott would perform magic tricks at restaurants and eventually grew into performing at birthday parties. He was raised to believe that the small business owner is the backbone of the economy, and this is why he feels called to serve them. Scott started his career in insurance after high school and soon realized that business owners need help in all areas where money is concerned so he set out to simplify the ever-increasing complexity that surrounds entrepreneurs as they grow financially. Through his experiences, he learned that we all want the same things… to live life fully, to have love and find our own freedom. He studied indigenous wisdom and worked to center his professional and personal life around being healthy, wealthy, wise, and happy. He developed The Way2Wealth®, a process for managing wealth, so he could help others who like him, feel that life gets more complicated as it becomes more successful. Scott is a New York Times best-selling author, Former Chairman of the 4 Worlds Global Impact Fund and current member, Managing Director, Partner and Wealth Advisor leading several Carson Wealth locations to focus on serving successful entrepreneurs.

Today, Scott leads multiple locations with a focus on serving entrepreneurs. His firm specializes in comprehensive wealth management using The Way2Wealth® proprietary process. His personal and proactive approach is designed to bring clarity and simplicity to the complex issues of financial management. He is a Registered Financial Consultant (RFC) and has been an active Financial Technical Analyst since 2005. It is Scott’s mission to help his clients pursue financial freedom, allowing them to focus on what is most important in their lives now and in the future. Work-life balance is very important to Scott and, on occasion, he has been spotted hosting conference calls from his massage chair in the office. He is a life-long learner and spends his free time reading and writing and has published three books, one of which was a New York Times Bestseller.

His talents do not end there, as he also enjoys Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, woodworking, and beekeeping. Scott practices sustainable living through permaculture, and sacred bow hunting, using Indigenous wisdom to guide him.

Scott enjoys spending time outdoors and with his family. Scott has come a long way from his first business in middle school and still has plenty of creative tricks up his sleeve! He and his wife, Angie, reside in Hedgesville, WV, and have two grown children, four grandchildren, a cat (Kashmir), and a plethora of wild animals that come to visit from time to time.
