My guest today is Will Chase. Will is the former CEO of Triumph Bank.  Triumph Bank was started right before the Financial crisis of 2008 with just a few million dollars and sold for over 130 million dollars. The number of new banks opening around the United States has drastically changed since the 2008 financial crisis, and I wanted to find out why. This episode will give you much more than that and the future of banking. This is a great episode that also covers:

• What it actually looks like to quit your job at 50 and go all in a start-up bank even when you don’t know if you’ll make it
• How to win in the service industry when big banks keep acquiring market share
• Being 5 million dollars in the hole and working your way out of it after the 2008 financial crisis
• Why it makes no sense to start a bank anymore
• Plus much more!

Please enjoy this week’s episode with Will Chase! Links:
