Chris Kirkpatrick is a former Top 100 Texas Hold ’Em player turned Financial Freedom Strategist, author, and the founder of LIFE180 — a financial education movement with a mission to elevate consciousness around money so people can use it as a tool to create a life that is meaningful to them.

Through his books Cashflow Hacking and IUL Exposed, and his signature Cashflow Hacking Framework, Chris has helped thousands of agents, entrepreneurs, and families break free from the traps of financial misinformation. He doesn’t just teach people how to grow their money — he teaches them how to build lives aligned with their values, where wealth isn’t just accumulated, it’s expressed.

Chris coaches with bold honesty and unwavering belief in human potential. Whether he’s leading a whiteboard session, coaching an agent to step into their next level, or challenging an entire industry to do better — he shows up with a commitment to growth, authenticity, service, and freedom. Because to him, money isn’t the goal — it’s the amplifier of what matters most.

As the founder of LIFE180, he leads a team and community dedicated to transforming how people save, invest, and think. From stage talks to deep coaching sessions to hosting masterminds at his private retreat center in the Dominican Republic, Chris equips people with the clarity, tools, and confidence to take ownership of their financial story and live it on purpose.

He’s a husband, a father, and a man committed to raising his kids internationally with intention — practicing what he preaches every single day.
