As a successful business owner, you have a great problem—more money than you know what to do with. You know you should be doing something with the surplus, but what? The more opinions you take in, the less certain you feel.
You’re certain about one thing, though: You’ve worked way too hard to leave Uncle Sam a tip.
Hey, I’m Ryan.
I remember standing where you are, in the shadow of my first entrepreneurial success. I was so overwhelmed with options that I did nothing at all. Here’s what I realized pretty quickly, though: The financial planning industry generally caters to W-2 employees with 401(k)s who plan to retire the day they turn 65.
As entrepreneurs, we’re among the 6.7%* of US adults who own a business. And even more rare—we’re profitable. So that run-of-the-mill advice you’ve been taking in? It doesn’t feel right for a reason. That’s why, now, I lead Goldfin Group, a wealth management firm for entrepreneurs.
