Scott and First Ascent are blowing up industry norms on the asset management side of financial planning, freeing the firm from the legacy data that holds others back.
Scott talks about what pushed him to start his own firm after helping get several other small firms off the ground. He shares his thought process about the flat-fee model that First Ascent uses and why there's less incentive today to use an AUM fee structure.
