The Business of Education: Why Investors Are Eyeing Schools and Special Education Businesses With John McLaughlin

The business of education is rapidly evolving — from homeschooling and private schools to special education programs and investor interest. But how does it all fit together, and where are the biggest opportunities and challenges ahead?

In this episode of The Agent of Wealth Podcast, host Marc Bautis is joined by John McLaughlin, Ph.D., Managing Partner at McLaughlin Advisors. John is a lifelong educator, entrepreneur, and advisor who has helped school owners and special education providers prepare for — and profit from — successful exits.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why fewer people are choosing teaching careers today, and how that shift impacts education.
• How public, private, charter, and homeschooling fit into the U.S. education system — and who pays for what.
• The role of private investors and private equity in the future of education.
• How vouchers and federal law shape funding for special education and private schools.
• What school owners need to know about acquisitions and planning for a successful exit.
• And more!

Tune in to hear how education, entrepreneurship, and investment opportunities intersect — and what the future of schooling may look like.
