Ryan King joins us today with On The Edge Podcast. Ryan comes to us at the recommendation of my friend Matt Beadreau, who we have also interviewed on the show! Ryan started a tech company called Guardian Payments and was able to retire at age 35 based on the success of the company. He now focuses on being a good role model.

After retiring, Ryan couldn’t stop working which is where the calling to be a good role model came out. He now spends his time spreading the word on being better people instead of focusing on the doom and gloom that the internet seems to be obsessed with these days.

Join us for a great hour of conversation all about being a better person, the problem with the internet, how to solve it, who are role models and who aren’t, and more!

Quickly- I’m Scott Groves – Husband, Father, Loan Officer, Coach, Author, Podcaster, and Recent Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

This podcast is paid for and brought to you by…. by me, Scott Groves 🙂

Because I think these kind of long form conversations are valuable, I pay for 100% of the production of this show out of my pocket. This channel is FAR from monetization and because of the subject matter, may never be monetized.

I am a Mortgage Loan Officer & Loan Officer Coach in real life. It’s the money that I earn, from helping home-buyers and home-owners obtain home-loans, that pays for this show. If you, your friends, or your family are looking for a home loan from an honest Loan Officer, please contact me at [email protected]

I can do the loan for you (our team is licensed in 8 states) – OR – I can refer you to an amazing loan officer in the state where you’re searching. ON WITH THE SHOW!!!

New Full Episodes are released every THURSDAY at 10:00am and clips are released frequently throughout the week. SO MAKE SURE YOU SUBSCRIBE!!!
