Abound Wealth

Managing Partner

Brian Preston, CPA, CFP®, PFS

Brian Preston is the founder and host of The Money Guy Show, author of the New York Times bestselling book Millionaire Mission, and Managing Partner and cofounder of Abound Wealth Management. With decades of financial planning experience, Brian is driven to help clients make the most of their financial lives so they can focus on the things that matter most to them.

Teaching runs in Brian’s family. He’s the third generation of educators, and that heart for education is what led him to start the podcast as a passion project to share his financial strategies with the masses. Today, The Money Guy Show has grown into its own enterprise, reaching millions of people each year through podcasts, YouTube videos, courses, social media, and more, all to help people build wealth and own their time.

Brian knows the journey firsthand. Born of humble beginnings, he went from pinching pennies on a $7 date to becoming financially independent, clear on his purpose, and free from the compulsion to accumulate wealth for its own sake. That journey shapes the advice he shares with clients every day, and he believes simple strategies, applied consistently, can help anyone make real financial progress.

Brian lives in Franklin, Tennessee, with his wife, Jennifer, their two daughters, and their spunky dog, Lilly. When he’s not helping clients or making the wonderful world of finance accessible to everyone, you’ll find him watching the latest movies, traveling with family and friends, or cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs. He’s notorious for his Enneagram 7 personality, bold sense of humor, love of all things Disney, and organized chaos.

Things You Didn’t Know About Brian

  • He worked throughout college as a bus driver at UGA. He kept his Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) until he moved to Tennessee in 2016.
  • Brian’s father was Steve Spurrier’s left tackle at the University of Florida. Ask Brian to see his 1967 Orange Bowl watch or other memorabilia he has on display in his office to remember his late father, John.
  • Brian is a huge Disney fan. He has always been inspired by the relationship between the Disney brothers, Walt and Roy, and continues to draw inspiration from Walt’s pervasive philosophy of “plussing” whatever project was put in front of him, leaving it better than he left it.
