We recently had the opportunity to have an insightful conversation with Samuel Boubaous, CEO and Founder of Wealth Consulting, a boutique consulting agency. With humble beginnings in a small village in Germany, Samuel’s passion and urge towards ultimate success led him to build successful eight-figure companies in the US and the Middle East, receiving remarkable achievements throughout the journey. With Wealth Consulting, Samuel Boubaous offers several customized financial consulting services across industries and regions, assisting entrepreneurs and individuals craft long-lasting legacies for their businesses.
The Beginning
We started the interview by asking, “Samuel, can you tell us about your background and what inspired you to start Wealth Consulting?”
Samuel Boubaous shared, “I grew up in a small village in Germany. My father is Moroccan, and my mother is half-Italian and half-German. So, I always had this mix, not just culturally but also in how I view the world. My life was simple; no mentors or entrepreneurs were around me, but I always wanted more.
At 17, I started working as a fitness coach. I was always into sports, so I thought, why not monetize it? I built fitness plans, coached people online, and made my first money there. That gave me confidence. Then I transitioned into e-commerce. Business was good. I thought I made it.
But then, at 19, I got a huge tax bill in Germany. That’s when I realized that if you don’t understand how to build globally, the system can destroy you. I started looking at how I could build something outside this broken structure.
I began creating my setup with international companies, banking, and residencies. Eventually, other entrepreneurs started asking how I did it. That’s how Wealth Consulting started.”
Setting Apart In The Dynamic Financial Landscape
Wealth Consulting’s mission is to help individuals grow and protect their wealth. So, we asked Samuel Boubaous, “What sets your approach apart from other financial advisory firms in the market?”
“Wealth Consulting is the umbrella brand. Under it, we’ve built an infrastructure: Wealth Corporate handles company setups and banking, Wealth Estate manages real estate, Wealth Accounting deals with taxes and compliance, and we’ve added Wealth Management for long-term planning and Private Processing for payments. It’s one group, all connected.
What makes us different is that we don’t offer templates, we create systems based on your real life. And we also understand how fast this space moves. Some clients are doing $10K a month, others are already at $10 million. One person might need a US LLC and UAE residency. Another needs a Cayman Foundation and Asian banking. Everyone’s situation is different.
That’s why we always start with the individual and start with the questions regarding where they are now, where they want to go, or what’s their real challenge, and eventually, we build something that fits exactly that.” Samuel explained.
Tailored Services For Target Clients
We further asked, “Who is your primary target audience, and how do you tailor your services to meet their unique needs and challenges?”
Samuel Boubaous responded, “Most of our clients are entrepreneurs, especially those in online businesses like e-commerce, crypto, or trading. But the real point is that we don’t segment by industry or stage. If someone is in the early stages, let’s say, below $100k in yearly revenue, the main problem is survival. They need a simple, cost-efficient structure and payment processing that works.
Once someone passes $500k/year, it becomes about tax planning, better banking, and first asset protection. And once they cross $5M+, we’re talking about international structuring, trusts, foundations, and legacy. So it’s not just about what you do, it’s about when you come to us. We tailor the setup based on your phase. Because what you need at $10k/month is not the same as what you need at $10M/year.”
Staying Ahead Of The Curve
The financial landscape is constantly evolving. Intrigued to learn more, we posed the question to Samuel Boubaous, “How does Wealth Consulting stay ahead of market trends and ensure that your strategies remain effective?”
“We’re always active in different jurisdictions; I run companies in the UAE, the US, Singapore, and Europe. So when a rule changes or a bank tightens, we feel it immediately.
We don’t rely on one country. That’s the whole point of flag planting. If Europe becomes unfriendly, we pivot to Singapore. If a payment provider stops working, we already have three backups. So we are protecting our clients by building redundancy instead of dependency.
That’s the mindset: diversify early so you’re not forced to fix things when it’s already too late.” Samuel mentioned.
Triumphs At Wealth Consulting
Interested to learn more about the triumphs at Samuel Boubaous’ organization, we inquired, “Can you share a success story where Wealth Consulting has significantly impacted a client’s financial situation? What was the process like?”
Samuel Boubaous explained, “Yes, I’ll give you one recent example. We had a client doing $600,000 in revenue per month, but he was almost bankrupt. Zero profit. His taxes were too high, and his payment processor froze his last money.
He came to us in a crisis. This is a perfect case that shows how the right structure can completely change your business. We stepped in, unfroze the funds, and then set up a US entity and a Hong Kong company because that made sense for his case as a non-resident. We moved him to the UAE, got him proper residency, and gave him real banking, not fintech, not broken APIs, but solid corporate banking that could scale.
Then we opened up the US market for him and built the right payment stack. Within months, he hit $4 million/month in revenue, with strong profitability. And till now we are in touch for the next steps. That’s what happens when the structure works for your business, not against it.”
Navigating Through The Challenges
Challenges are an inevitable part of every business. So, we asked, “What are some of the biggest challenges you’ve encountered in the wealth management industry, and how have you overcome them?”
Samuel Boubaous added, “Honestly, challenges always depend on your level, and many of them just appear with time. In the beginning, it was basic things like no accounting, misconceptions about the tax system, and no real setup. Everything was trial and error.
Later, when I started having companies in the UAE and clients from Europe and Asia, the challenges shifted to payment processing for different markets, hiring people remotely, investing in properties, and staying compliant while scaling fast. However, there’s no single solution that fits all challenges. For me, I had to leave Germany and start fresh, first in the UAE, then set up across other jurisdictions. It’s about learning what works and building it yourself. That’s why today, we build it for others, too.”
Implementing Tech-Driven Innovations
We also asked, “How has technology played a role in improving your services at Wealth Consulting? Are there any new tools or platforms that have been particularly helpful?”
“Technology helps a lot on the operational side of our business, as we deal with transactions and setups and need the most secure portals and automated systems. Especially with Private Processing, we use tech to monitor transactions, optimize risk levels, handle KYC flows, etc. But that’s only the backend. The real value is still human. A dashboard can’t tell you whether to open a US trust or a UAE foundation. It won’t help you navigate banking culture in the Middle East.
So yes, tech improves speed, but the real strategy comes from experience. That’s where we win.” Samuel shared.
Words Of Wisdom For Aspiring Beginners
Addressing the beginners, we asked, “As a successful entrepreneur, what advice would you give to individuals looking to start their businesses, particularly in the financial advisory space?”
“First of all, don’t start from theory. Start by solving your problems. That’s how Wealth Consulting began. I had tax issues, blocked funds, and payment issues. I figured it out myself. Then I built something real and shared it.
Also: diversify from day one. Don’t keep your company, residency, or banking all in one place. That’s a risk. If you use jurisdictions the right way, they’ll make your life easier. For example, US LLCs are great for structure, UAE for residency, and Asia is very strong for banking. Even if you’re just starting, build like someone who will be big.
And lastly, remember that every stage requires a new version of you. What worked at 5K/month won’t work at 50K. So keep adapting, stay focused, and keep moving forward.” Samuel mentioned.
