If you’re reading this, you made it. You found something that most teachers never find — a space built specifically for you, by someone who sat in the same chair you’re sitting in right now.
I taught for 31 years. For the first 24 of those years, I had no retirement plan worth mentioning. I was living paycheck to paycheck, raising kids, coaching, wearing every hat teachers wear — and quietly hoping retirement would somehow work itself out. Nobody was going to figure it out for me.
In 2018, something clicked. I started learning. Really learning. And what I discovered surprised me — nobody had ever sat down with me and explained any of this. Not once in 24 years. You’ll hear much more of my story woven throughout the modules — because I want you to know that everything I teach here came from real life, real mistakes, and a very late start.
That’s why this exists.
I built TeacherFinCoach to be your all-in-one resource — everything you could ever want to know about retirement and investing, from the teacher perspective, in one place. No more searching. No more confusion. No more feeling behind.
I recognize how busy you are. I know how hard it is to find the time to learn about this, let alone save for it and actually implement it. That challenge is real — and I want to make it much less of a worry for you. My goal was simple: take the homework out of it.
And you can do it all right from your phone or computer — this platform was built to work wherever you are, whenever you have a few minutes.
Inside you’ll find 10 modules, calculators, tools, real stories, and — I hope — the motivation you need to finally feel like retirement is something you’re building, not something you’re crossing your fingers for. My deepest hope is that this puts an end to teachers being the last to know when it comes to their own financial futures.
You’ve spent your career making sure your students had what they needed. It’s time someone did the same for you.
I’m not a financial advisor. I don’t have any fancy acronyms after my name. I’m a retired PE teacher who spent thousands of hours self-educating on personal finance, investing, saving, and every money hack I could find — because nobody was going to teach it to me. This course is what I wish someone had handed me on my first day in the classroom. It’s educational, not financial advice — but it’s built with everything I’ve got.
Wishing you the best, Coach Marty
