AI Summary
5 min readScarlet and Grant are a married couple in their early 30s from San Antonio, Texas, with two young children and a third on the way. They came on Financial Audit not just with a debt problem, but with a relationship so fractured that the financial numbers felt almost secondary. Grant is a contractor and aspiring real estate wholesaler who has been "busy" for six months but has yet to produce a profitable result. Scarlet is a stay-at-home mom who manages the day-to-day bills but has no real visibility into the business or the total debt picture.
