Episode 73 - How to Unleash Your Inner Stand-Up Comic In Retirement

From our client base as Fiduciary Financial Advisors, we have some really awesome clients and many that get us roaring with laughter from their stories and jokes. That got us to wonder: what if they were able to take their natural talents of humor and make some money from it? What would it take to be a comedian? For those of you out there that want to learn some tidbits about unleashing your inner comic, this episode is for you!
Our guest is a serial entrepreneur who created over a dozen companies in his lifetime. His lifelong love of comedy led to producing Live Comedy Shows, TV Series, and Concerts; and in no time he opened his first comedy club, Laughs Unlimited - just the 12th full-time comedy club in the entire United States. He built this into a chain of successful comedy clubs in Northern California. He has worked with some of the most famous names in comedy: Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld, Bob Saget, and Dana Carvey while also helping to develop talents such as Paula Poundstone, Brian Posehn, and Tim Bedore. He hosts a podcast called “Standup Comedy - Your Host & MC” and has written several books. Please welcome Scott Edwards to The Retirement Success in Maine Podcast!
