Randall Robichaud – Financial Advisor & Financial Literacy Advocate

Personal Notes

The drumbeat of financial self-sufficiency and financial independence was always around me as a kid. I took that message to heart, and over the years, I’ve learned how to build wealth choice-by-choice and bit-by-bit. I’m driven to help others achieve this same financial wherewithal because the too frequent reporting on Americans’ paltry savings, especially retirement savings, troubles me deeply. I’m determined to shine a bright light on the tactics and abilities everyday people have to create their own wealth so their hopes and dreams have a tangible roadmap to become reality.

Bio

Many people who know Randy would describe him as their favorite coach… in sports, in business, and in money management. Like any good coach, he possesses intelligence that is relatable, and knowledge that he’s made digestible.

Moved by the daunting stories of Americans’ poor financial and saving skills, Randy is driven to share his financial knowledge with others to help them better control their money rather than their money controlling them. As the Founding Partner of Firerock Finance, Randy’s goal is to increase personal financial literacy and competence around subjects like earning, spending, saving, investing and wealth building; all in the pursuit of financial freedom. He aims to be a trusted resource where people can come and learn more about the most significant financial strategies and tactics.

An experienced speaker to large and small business audiences, Randy is recognized as a Certified Financial Education Instructor from the National Financial Educators council, and is eager to provide financial education courses. Randy is an avid follower of Dave Ramsey’s personal finance strategies, and his approach to wealth building has been shaped by the likes of Benjamin Graham, Adam Smith, Peter Lynch and Warren Buffet.

Along with running Firerock Finance, Randy is a seasoned Partner/Alliance/Channel professional and has spent the past 16 years in the healthcare industry. He received his Bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University.

In his free time Randy enjoys keeping up with his Seattle sports teams (plus the Detroit Red Wings), traveling, playing guitar, golfing and running. Most of all he enjoys time with his wife of 25 years, two teens, and two dogs.
