#66 - Breaking Moulds: The Journey from Engineering to Finance - Allen Mueller


Listen Later

Imagine trading your comfortable desk job for the unpredictable world of finance - that's precisely the leap our guest, Allen Mueller, founder of Seven Saturdays Financial, took. Allen found his calling in the movement of FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early), transitioning from engineering to corporate finance, and launching his firm in the midst of a pandemic. He shares the incredible journey he undertook to gain control over his time and carve a path towards financial independence.

In the second phase of our chat, Allen gets candid about the initial struggles he faced in growing his business. He recounts the pivotal moment of investing in a sales training course during a business dry spell, which sparked remarkable growth and set a course for future expansion. We also touched on a critical discussion about the role of transparent pricing and reducing conflicts through flat fee models in financial advisory. Strap in for fascinating insights from a man who dared to break the mould, chase financial independence, and navigate the world of financial planning on his terms.
