He helps people make sure they have enough money forever, no matter what. Because of that experience, he understands better than most exactly what it takes to answer the question: "When Can I Retire?"
Within Kyte Financial Planning, Jamie realised he could only help a certain number of clients plan for their retirement. That's why he created When Can I Retire and his alter ego The Retirement Guy, so that millions of people across the UK could access the same quality of guidance, for free. Across this website and the videos under The Retirement Guy, we give you tools, insights, education and guidance to help you build a meaningful and financially secure retirement.
