Samuel Dye, CFP®, CKA®

Managing Partner & Stewardship Coach


When did you first become interested in Finance?

I was interested in Finance at the start of college, but really did not have clarity as to what I wanted to do until my Senior year. Nathan Fulks and I were best friends at Liberty and he encouraged me to explore the Financial Planning field. I spent my entire spring break senior year meeting with as many people in the industry as I could and I fell in love with the idea of journeying with clients and helping them become great stewards of the wealth God had given them.

What is your favorite part of what you do at FWP?

I love building relationships with my clients. It is an honor to enter into some of the most important aspects of a person’s life and be given the opportunity to speak wisdom into them.

Do you have any unique hobbies?

I love to play golf, fish, ride jet skis, and play ping pong.

Do you have a favorite Bible Verse or Quote?

Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

What books can we find on your bookshelf?

A healthy combination of Christian books, leadership books, and a few fiction pieces. A few that I have really enjoyed lately include Parenting by Paul David Tripp, Developing the Leader Within You by John Maxwell, and Bonhoeffer by Eric Metaxas.

Which one of the FWP Values means the most to you & why?

I love our core value of Humble Courageous Confidence. This encompasses so many attributes that I aspire to exhibit in my personal and professional life. It almost sounds like an oxymoron to think of humility, courage, and confidence in the same vein, but as I think about it more deeply, it encourages me to pursue the things that God has called me to pursue (see Eph. 2:10) with boldness and meekness.
