Josh Brown and Joe Duran: On Financial Advice, Living Well and Building a Billion Dollar Business

<p>Josh here - it was my honor and pleasure to interview Joe Duran, founder of United Capital, on stage earlier this week at the inaugural Wealth/Stack Conference in Scottsdale, Arizona.</p><br /><p>Joe made headlines earlier this year when he sold the firm to Goldman Sachs - a deal that was the largest Goldman has done in 20 years.</p><br /><p>Joe and I spoke about the need to advise clients on different aspects of their lives, beyond just what's happening in their portfolios. We also talked about what motivated him to make a deal and what types of capabilities he'll have now as a part of one of the largest financial services giants in the world.</p><br /><p>Joe also relayed plenty of advice for young advisors who are just beginning their careers , and what he would love to go back and tell his younger self about having patience.</p><br /><p>Joe arrived in America with just $200 in his pocket from Zimbabwe, earned an MBA and then sold two companies to Fortune 500 acquirers. His story is hugely inspirational, you can read more about him here:</p><br /><p><a href="https://www.unitedcp.com/meet-joe-duran/joe-s-story" target="_blank">https://www.unitedcp.com/meet-joe-duran/joe-s-story</a></p><br /><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://plinkhq.com/i/1456467014" target="_blank">1-click play or subscribe on your favorite podcast app</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Subscribe to the mini podcast on<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-compound/id1456467014?mt=2" target="_blank"> iTunes</a> or<a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/5VKsKPZUtwVylxslLie36k?si=W5sikLxWR0avObQlrLqlmw" target="_blank"> Spotify</a>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Enable<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ritholtz-Wealth-Management-LLC-Compound/dp/B07P777QBZ" target="_blank"> our Alexa skill here</a> - "Alexa, play the Compound show!"</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Talk to us about your portfolio or financial plan here:&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://ritholtzwealth.com/" target="_blank">http://ritholtzwealth.com/</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Obviously nothing on this channel should be considered as personalized financial advice just for you or a solicitation to buy or sell any securities.
