153: How to Lose Money by Relying on Your Insurance to Protect You with Scott Smith

Author: Paul Moore and Josh Thomas March 25, 2019 Duration: 43:21

Scott Royal Smith is a real estate investor and asset protection attorney in Austin, Texas. He graduated from Albany Law School and began his career in high-stakes corporate litigation. Scott learned the key secret he now uses to defeat lawsuits, that they are a business. Through his defense work, he targets defeating lawsuits before they are even filed by making sure the business part of a lawsuit no longer makes financial sense for a plaintiff to proceed. Scott founded Royal Legal Solutions to offer tax, business and legal strategies to real estate investors. He spent the past 8 years of his career diving through case law, reading the ever-changing tax code, and analyzing real estate investment so that you don't have to. His claim to fame as an attorney is his uncanny ability to make his clients judgement-proof.


Paul Moore and Josh Thomas host How to Lose Money, but don't let the title fool you. This is a wealth-building conversation built on a simple, powerful premise: the most valuable lessons often come from what went wrong, not what went right. Each episode delves into the honest, sometimes gut-wrenching stories behind business failures and costly missteps. You'll hear from entrepreneurs in the thick of a tough season and executives analyzing strategic errors, all sharing the hard-won insights they gained in the process. The focus isn't on the failure itself, but on the clarity and resilience forged in those moments. For anyone building a business, leading a team, or simply fascinated by the real, unvarnished path to success, this podcast offers a unique and compelling perspective. New conversations arrive every Monday, providing a regular dose of practical wisdom earned the hard way.
