Phillip Hulme, grew up believing there was a better way. Money was tight, his parents worked long hours and yet there never seemed to be enough to escape the grind. If it wasn't one thing, it was another. As fortune would have it, Phillip had a mentor in the Army who spotted his curiosity for finance and guided him to read and learn more. It lit a fire inside of Phillip and he has never looked back. After serving in the U.S. Army for over 7 years as a special operations signal soldier, Phillip sharpened his passion for finance and his strategic mindset by earning a Bachelor’s of Science in Finance and an MBA with concentrations in both Finance and Strategy. Phillip went to work in corporate America earning, saving and investing all along. After he achieved financial independence at the age of 34, he decided to follow his calling by sharing his learnings with the people who have given us all so much, the Veterans of this great country.
