For the last 30 years, he has been teaching financial and business classes at Brigham Young University and taught pre-licensing and continuing education courses to financial professionals across the United States.

Scott grew up in a neighborhood on the west side of Salt Lake City called Rose Park, a – modest blue-collar community. He is the son of Mearle and Virginia Marsh and has 5 brothers and 2 sisters. One of Scott’s childhood friends was the renowned business innovation thinker and Harvard Business School professor, Clayton Christensen. Clayton and Scott along with their friends found an abandoned canoe that they turned into the “Jordan River Yacht Club.” They grew up in a working-class neighborhood that was full of ideas and big imaginations. From an early age, Scott learned to multiply meager resources into large future values, something he now calls “Million Dollar Choices™.”
