My Story

My name is Brian Scribonia and on this episode of the Common Sense Financial Podcast, the truth is, the real wealth is not found in things, but in the freedom to live your life free from having to work for a paycheck or trade your time for money. And the same thing I want for my children is the same thing I want for my clients and the reason why I love my work.

You're listening to the Common Sense Financial Podcast. I'm your host, Brian Scribonia. Thanks for tuning in and let's get into today's topic. Hello, I'm Brian Scribonia, host of the Common Sense Financial Podcast. For years I've been passionate about educating my audience by writing books, producing this podcast, writing blogs, and speaking on topics related to wealth creation, preservation and utilization. It was over 30 years ago when I got started in business and have spent this time building my knowledge while building teams and companies. But my motivation has always been to not simply grow businesses, but to impact lives by sharing the information and experiences I have gathered over the years working with thousands of people. It's my opinion that there's no reason why anyone has to figure any of this out on their own. If you listen to my show or read anything I have published, you know the content I share is like a tell all story. But I've recently realized after all these years that I've produced a lot of content and have spent very little time sharing my story. We all have a story to tell and as this community grows, I wanted to make sure we connect because technology can keep us isolated. And what is more important than any of this financial stuff is having meaningful relationships. So here's my story. Growing up, my family was a typical middle class, blue collar family living in St. Louis. My dad came over from Croatia and worked as a lab engineer at a heating and cooling manufacturing company who also ran a business on the side. In the evenings and on the weekends he was always working and I admired his work ethic and his ability to figure out most anything out. And as a teen I dreamed of having upscale things, cars and homes and those types of things, but I had really didn't have any example to follow about how any of this got done. While my dad worked hard, he always traded time for money and the challenge is that he always had to rely on his ability to work to create the cash flow, to do the things he wanted to do. So as a young man in my 20s, I mistakenly chased material things Is.
