Welcome to my Newsletter!

Most people trade their life for money they don’t need to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.

They follow someone else’s script.

Work jobs that drain them.

Build businesses that look successful but feel like prisons.

That’s why this newsletter exists.

What You’ll Learn

I write about making money, building leverage, and designing a life that’s actually yours. Every week, 321,000+ people read this newsletter to:

  • Understand how to build real wealth (not just trade time for money)

  • Learn from people who’ve actually made it (not theorists)

  • See the patterns of success that separate talkers from builders

  • Stop following advice that worked for someone else and build something that works for you.

This isn’t another business newsletter filled with tactics that don’t matter.

It’s about mastering the mental models that create wealth and freedom.

Who I Am

I’m Scott Clary.

I write. I podcast. That’s it.

I spent years in the corporate world leading sales and marketing teams, building companies, taking them through exits, and selling to Fortune 500 brands.

I learned what creates real wealth. And what doesn’t.

Now I spend my time doing what I actually want to do.

  • Interviewing the most successful people on the planet.

  • Writing about what I learn.

  • Distilling complex ideas into simple insights you can use.

My work has been featured in Forbes, Wall Street Journal, Business Insider, and 100+ publications.

But here’s what matters: I’m obsessed with understanding how people build wealth and freedom. Not the surface-level advice. The real patterns. The uncomfortable truths about money and success that most people avoid. I take those insights and turn them into something you can actually use.
