About Scott Carson
From small-town Texas roots to a nationally recognized authority in note investing, Scott Carson's journey is a testament to the power of entrepreneurship and a strong work ethic. Growing up in Ingleside, Texas, he learned the value of hard work at his family's hardware store. These early lessons shaped his career, leading him to excel in sales and finance.
