Meet Alex Fink. Born and raised in Virginia, Alex developed an entrepreneurial mindset from an early age. During high school, Alex was focused on various endeavors, such as working his first job at Pizza Hut and finding other ways to make money in his spare time. After deciding that school wasn't the direction he wanted to go, Alex began working for an IT company, starting in the mailroom. Over the course of a few years, he worked his way up and eventually earned a six-figure annual income.

After purchasing his first home, Alex understood the importance of real estate. He began flipping houses for profit and went on to create significant enterprise value in the development industry. He then started his own brokerage and began lending, which eventually led to managing 1,200 employees and 36 offices across the US.

In 2012, Alex and his partner, Ben Lyons, sold a company with a great exit and started LYNK Capital. Alex has continued his entrepreneurial endeavors by launching a development company, architecture firm, general contracting firm, electrical company, and other ventures to support a design-to-build agency called Relevant.

Ben Lyons grew up thinking money was evil, but when a trusted mentor helped him break that paradigm, he went on to establish multiple successful businesses during a +40-year career in lending, real estate, and financial services.

Because he has often seen the vocational and financial knowledge neglected in the traditional education system, he is on a mission to leverage his experience in business and wealth creation to empower others to succeed with money and in their careers. He does this by sitting on the board of directors for several education institutions, volunteering his time to teach personal finance to young people, and founding Wealth Creators USA as a private channel to help people create wealth in a systematic way to improve their financial self.

In this episode of the "From Worry to Wealth" podcast, Ben and Alex discuss a crucial component of becoming wealthy, and that is the "Wealth Creation Formula". This formula illustrates the proven and undeniable process that every wealthy person has gone through in achieving wealth. From increasing investable income, to acquiring assets, and then utilizing leverage and time, these variables are a must-know for anybody looking to leave worry behind and head towards wealth!
