Episode: Life Lessons on Prosperity with The Wealthy Gardener author John Soforic
Guest: Dr. John Soforic was a once chiropractor with 200k in student debt. He retired at 49 with a retirement income of $240,000. He then wrote a book for his son in college: The Wealthy Gardener: Lessons on Prosperity between Father and Son. The book became an Amazon bestseller, hit #46 worldwide on audible, and has been translated into 6 languages.

Big Idea: Generational Wealth is not just money, equity, or numbers on the balance sheet. One very critical component of wealth his the knowledge on how to steward that wealth, a critical piece missing from so many estate plans. John viewed this challenge in his own life as he sought to inspire his 19 year old son to absorb and learn the wisdom he’d discovered over the decade of building his own wealth. And so The Wealthy Gardener was born.
I listened on audible myself and then found myself immediately recommending the book to a few friends of mine who are early in their real estate investing career. I’d describe this book as the “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” for the new generation, but with a greater focus on real estate and the mindsets needed to create a wealthy life. John and I discuss real estate, my juvenile delinquent past, our shared experience of having a child attend Temple University, and of course his book, The Wealthy Gardener. Please enjoy this conversation with John Soforic.
