My Story
I began Michael Paul Financial Coaching to encourage and teach others about smart money principles. These principles will give you a more stress-free life and will give you a feeling of being in control of your finances.
​
In 2015, I owed more than $10k+ on a truck, an engagement ring, and a large vehicle repair bill. I hit rock bottom when I asked my then fiancé to pay my monthly truck payment for me. Somehow she was the one with money even though I was working 40 hours a week and she was still in college. I knew I was supposed to live on less than I made, but my plan wasn't working. I needed someone to guide me and inject hope into my situation.
​
That summer I discovered the book The Total Money Makeover. The book was life changing. The plan in the book resulted in financial clarity and it gave me a vision of what my financial future could look like. Most importantly, it gave me hope for my financial situation.
​
After reading the book, I paid off all $10k in debt in less than 10 months. I did all of this while saving up cash for a wedding and honeymoon.
​
My purpose is to give YOU hope and to help create a plan for for YOUR financial future.
About me
I am a husband, and father of two growing boys. I understand the stress of trying to manage finances and trying to figure out what's best for your family. That is what I'm here for, to come along side you to better manage life's responsibilities, which all too often center around money.
