Hi, I’m Michael Pyle - born and raised in Kansas City. I was in software sales in my early career. My true passion is personal finance. Now I’m a financial planner.

Between paying off ~$150K in approx. 5 years, setting money aside to go after my dream of running my own business…and having 4 kids in the meantime - I focus on family, friends and freedom in my spare time.

Our net worth was a negative number when my wife and I got married in 2016.

In 2023, it was over $600K.

Some financial advisors don’t practice what they preach.

I am not one of those advisors.

My goal is to create space between you and your paycheck (whether it’s a retirement paycheck from your investments, or a paycheck from your employer).

Welcome to the next step in your financial adventure - where you turn your hard-earned money into creating a lifestyle YOU want, not what someone else wants.

I’m a flat-fee advisor based in Kansas City, and virtually serve clients ALL over the country.

Looking forward to meeting you!

(I skipped the singular, professional headshot. The folks pictured with me are why I do what I do. Let’s keep it real…and fun).

Why so many kids?

I’m building a team of future pickle ball players to rule the world.
