Matt Hobson's career journey feels like a cross-country hike. He went from studying spotted owls in Oregon's forests to importing lumber from New Zealand, and ended up helping people with their financial decisions.
He is the ninth child of thirteen siblings. Yes, you read that right, thirteen! They didn’t call themselves "the wilderness" of Eastern Oregon for nothing. That ninth kid was shy in his youth, but soon discovered he had a special talent for connecting with people and making friends that would be useful later…
When the 2008 financial crisis demolished his lumber import business and his ability to provide for his family, he decided to start working in a promising field: financial advice. His entry point? A position with Ameriprise and a phone book as a welcome gift. Yep, old-fashioned cold calling.
If you want to know how he went from that to mentoring advisors and being a reference in the financial industry, tune in now!
