Episode notes

Today’s economy is wild! Is inflation holding you back on the financial roadmap you created for yourself, fueled by your engineering career? 🤔 Ryan Sullivan to the (financial) rescue! 🛟 💵

Ryan is a Mechanical Engineer who always had a passion for personal finance and investing. (He even played one of those stock market games in high school. 😅)

In his role leading the engineering department at a plumbing company, he realized many other professionals in the building industry had similar money questions and frustrations, but didn’t have the time and energy to dive into those themselves.

That’s when Off the Beaten Path Financial was born!

He now crafts personalized financial plans for engineers and other AEC professionals to make sure they’re on the right track to achieve their money goals.

Even with the bad economy and wages not keeping up with inflation, you can — and should — still find ways to win financially. And for engineers like us, he has the secrets! 😉
