For the last six years, he has provided financial coaching to entrepreneurs, employees, and other people saving and investing towards financial freedom.
Saving is bit of a boring word, but it is a vital part of the process if you are looking to retire early.
Building a compounding machine is an incredibly important part of achieving financial independence, but not everybody understands how to get started.
Reaching financial independence is a matter of patience, persistence, and the aggregation of marginal gains.
We all know that there’s no such thing as a get rich quick scheme, but that doesn’t mean becoming a millionaire isn’t within your grasp.
I have been with Crunch for many years. I wanted to express my appreciation for the exceptional services provided by Crunch. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and expertise have been invaluable in managing my finances effectively. Working with them has been a pleasure, and I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking reliable and knowledgeable accountants.
MoreAs someone that’s new to being self employed, Crunch made the whole set up process easy. From my initial call to understand the process, the check ins to see how I was doing to actually going ahead. Once I was set up the support team were amazing at answering the millions of questions I had and they’re always at the end of the phone or email if I need them. I even had a full 45 minute call to walk through the full system which was amazing.
MoreI've always been impressed with email responsiveness but Andrea on the phone today was first class. Solved my headache on the first call (I had made an error, though I was initially convinced I hadn't!). Endlessly patient. And then proactively pointed-out a few other areas of my accounts that needed attention and walked me though various changes, explaining what was needed and why. Stayed beyond opening hours to help me complete everything. Couldn't be more impressed.
