About

Phil McGilvray


A former partner in one of Australia’s leading stock broking and financial planning firms, Phil spent 20 years working as a financial adviser before stepping away from the industry in 2016 to focus on helping families thrive financially through practical financial education and coaching.

Phil has been passionate about entrepreneurship and finances ever since his Grandma taught him how to manage money using physical glass jars and physical money as a teenager.

Over the past 20 years, Phil has had the opportunity to personally coach over 500 couples and individuals from 36 different countries and taught thousands more through his workshops and online courses.

In addition to this, Phil has coached or consulted to over 100 entrepreneurs and small businesses from startups to 8-figure earners to help them build profitable, life-changing businesses. 

In 2018, Phil was blessed to be awarded a Winston Churchill Fellowship to research financial literacy and financial well-being programs and initiatives around the world. 

The Churchill Fellowship gave Phil the opportunity to meet with government officials, policy makers, charities, educators, podcasters, program developers and researchers. Following his research trip, Phil has had the opportunity to speak to organisations and at conferences all around the world on the topic of financial literacy and financial well-being. 

Phil has a passion for making money simple and is on a mission to equip families with the financial road map and money skills they need to thrive financially.

Experience has taught Phil that when he helps people thrive financially, he is also helping their relationships, their health, their productivity at work, their joy for life and their ability to be generous.

Phil and his wife Lianne are committed Christians and are on a mission to give a million dollars over 10 years to provide fresh water, sanitation, and education to third world countries. 

Phil is married to the gorgeous Lianne, they have 3 beautiful young adults - Hannah, Holly and Lachlan; a Kelpie called Scarlet and 3 Mini Lop rabbits. 

When he is not working, Phil loves long distance running, fishing, holidays by the beach and eating chocolate!

Giving Back - Because Money Has a Purpose

At the heart of the Money Boss Academy is a bigger mission.

Yes, we help people take control of their financial future BUT our ultimate goal is impact.

We believe the greatest joy in having money is in using it to help others.

When you have your finances in order, when you’re thriving instead of just surviving, you’re in a position to live generously, to help others, to fund change, and to make a real difference.

That’s why a portion of every Money Boss Academy membership goes directly toward causes that matter…

One of the projects close to our hearts is Raw Impact an incredible organisation changing lives in Cambodia.

Each year, Lianne and I join their team to build homes, schools, and hope for families living in some of the toughest conditions imaginable. It’s hot, it’s sweaty, it’s humbling… and its life changing.

In 2026, we’re planning to take a group of Money Bosses with us to roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty, and experience firsthand the joy of giving back.

Because being a Money Boss isn’t about accumulating wealth it’s about using what you have to change lives.

If that resonates with you, you’re in the right place.
