VisionWise Capital controls $51M of real estate assets since its start-up in 2013. Check out some of Sanford\u2019s impressive credentials: Sanford has a unique background as a Commercial Real Estate Broker\/Principal, with 25 years as a Wealth Advisor. He worked for 16 years as Vice President, Wealth Management Advisory at Merrill Lynch, where he managed over $100M in client assets. In addition, Sanford co-developed a three-year $77M pilot project to create financial opportunities for ethnically diverse communities. Sanford earned Merrill Lynch\u2019s Lifetime Achievement Award for leadership and excellence. But most important to me, he was a quarterback at UT (the University of Texas at Austin) on a four-year scholarship. Today I want to chat with Sanford about a couple of things. One has to do with Sanford\u2019s willingness to risk leaving a successful and established career at Merrill Lynch and then moving on to His Next Chapter of Entrepreneurship. And Second, we plan to explore rethinking the way we invest our savings. I may also want to hit on the touchy subject of the state of savings and investments among Baby Boomers. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; For more on Sanford go to http:\/\/visionwisecapital.com\/ Or call his office at 949-441-5580 &amp;nbsp; For more with Charlie Hedges and to signup to receive weekly posts please visit thenextchapter.life &amp;nbsp; ","author_name":"The Next Chapter with Charlie","author_url":"http:\/\/thenextchapterwithcharlie.libsyn.com\/podcast","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/5183652\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/c33131\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/item\/5183652"}
