Garrett Gunderson is called a “financial genius” in entrepreneurial circles, but he wasn’t born with a silver spoon. In fact, Garrett’s blue-collar roots are what make him so passionate about helping entrepreneurs build Economic Independence. Garrett comes from a 4th-generation coal mining family, raised in rural Utah. His great-grandfather left San Giovanni, Italy, in 1913 to escape government corruption and excessive taxation. He came to America and was separated from his family for 7 years, living in a tent so he could build a better life for his family.
Garrett’s approach to personal finance is firmly rooted in this history. His company, Wealth Factory, helps self-made business owners and entrepreneurs who understand hard work — but who haven’t been given the proper financial tools to build lasting wealth. Because even though Garrett’s great-grandfather understood the value of hard work, he never got to enjoy it. And without proper structures, hard work is like eating soup with a fork. You keep busy, but stay hungry.
So Garrett imagined his great-grandfather was his client. How could he have helped him grow his wealth faster? And with that thought in mind, he built the kind of company that would have helped his great-grandfather build Economic Independence in 3-7 years instead of taking three generations to break the cycle of scarcity. The process Wealth Factory uses to help you is simple. First, we recover the leaking money that’s rightfully yours. Next, we connect you with experts who create a framework that preserves, protects, and grows your money. And finally, we build structures that help you live wealthily now while creating a lasting family legacy.
This family legacy — and the burning desire to pass on what he’s learned to his children — are what drive Garrett to help others. He now spends his time innovating new financial tools and technologies that help small business owners and entrepreneurs like you build lasting wealth, live the life you love, and pass on a lasting family legacy of your own. He believes your legacy is defined not just by money, but by the values and contributions you pass along
