Garrett Gunderson Speaker Biography
Founder of Wealth Factory, Retirement & Finance Expert
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.
Story
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.
Wealth Factory
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.
Economic Independence
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.
Retirement
The process Wealth Factory uses to help you is simple. First, we recover 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 wealthy now while creating a lasting family legacy.
Family
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 contribution you pass along.
Garrett lives in Salt Lake City with his wife, two children and a dog. When he’s not traveling, speaking, or spending time with his family, Garrett enjoys Crossfit, eats Paleo and makes people laugh at local standup comedy clubs.
