“This Is Not Financial Advice” with Josh Brown, Episode #180

  1. “This Is Not Financial Advice” with Josh Brown, Episode #180 Larry Sprung, Mitlin Financial, Josh Brown 40:42

Josh Brown is the co-founder and CEO of Ritholtz Wealth Management. Before that, he was a stockbroker. As a stockbroker, he learned how to sell, how to handle rejection, and everything not to do with your Money.

When he realized that everything he’d done in his 10 years as a stockbroker wasn’t helping his clients (nor doing anything for his career), it was an epiphany. He changed his profession so he could help clients. So he shifted from being a commission-based broker to a fee-based financial advisor.

He met Barry Ritholtz through his financial blog, “The Reformed Broker.” Eventually, they partnered and formed Ritholtz Wealth Management. They started with $60 million in AUM in September 2013 and they’ve grown to over $4.3 billion with 65 employees in 15 cities.

Listen in for some great takeaways from Josh’s journey within financial services and how he’s used content creation to grow his brand.
