With a small paradigm shift, everyone has the ability to create and enjoy their own life without the worry of competing with others. George Veater was raised on a cattle ranch in Coarsegold, California. As the oldest boy of 5 children, George learned the value and necessity of hard work from a young age. After playing football and wrestling in high school, George found his real passion in the sport of rodeo. He was a District Champion Saddle Bronc Rider in High School, and then was offered a full scholarship to compete in collegiate rodeo.

During his college years, George was recruited by a financial marketing company where quickly found success. George later decided to focus his attention on building a more traditional financial planning business as a Financial Consultant. He and his family continue to run cattle on his family ranch and plan to carry on that tradition for at least a few more generations. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
