447: Money Secrets & The Real Wealth Matrix (With Edward Collins, Upleveled Entrepreneur)

In this episode, I sit down with Edward Collins (known on IG & TikTok as Edward Verified), a former FBI agent turned successful entrepreneur. Edward owns 9 businesses, 8 of which he operates completely passively, and has grown his social media presence to over 3 million followers organically in less than 18 months. We dive into Edward’s entrepreneurial journey, where he shares his biggest struggles, how he transitioned from the FBI to business, and the most critical factor behind his success after initial failures. Edward also gives us insights into how he got started on social media and skyrocketed from 6,000 to millions of followers. Together, we discuss today’s money system, the legal structures every entrepreneur should have to reduce tax burdens, and Edward’s perspectives on Bitcoin, tax planning, and wealth management. We wrap up the conversation by answering audience questions and getting a deeper look into Edward’s personal life and values as an entrepreneur. ENJOY! Connect with Edward Collins: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/edwardcollins_upleveled/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/edwardcollinsupleveledResources:The Uplevel CommunityBook: Psycho Cybernetics  SUBSCRIBE:Apple | Spotify | YouTube FIND JOSH:Facebook: /realjoshfortiInstagram: @joshfortiDownload The Golden Mic Method Book
