Welcome to The Donegans' Website
We are the Donegans: we have spent decades learning self-development, entrepreneurship and finances to create our version of an extraordinary life. We hit financial independence when Katie was 35 and Alan was 40 meaning we never have to work again, if we don't want to. We love to travel the world, meet new people, eat all the cool foods and help others.
We want to share with you what we have learnt from managing your personal finances, investing and all the way to working with other people.

The Extraordinary Life Course
Alan was watching a movie on a plane when he first heard the line "The extraordinary belongs to those that create it". It hit him like a tonne of bricks; of course no one is going to give you an extraordinary life; you have to build it for yourself. The question then becomes "What is extraordinary to you?" and "How do you build it?"
Katie and Alan managed to retire 25 years earlier than the average person in the UK reaching financial independence by the time Katie was 35 and have been travelling the world and exploring since. Alan created a global entrepreneurship movement with his business partner Simon, won a Queen's Award, started a podcast that got over 1,000,000 downloads and loves to build Lego models. We love life design and want to give you everything we have learnt, the tools, mindset and more than has helped us to build our version of extraordinary.

Rebel Finance SchoolIn April of 2020 Alan and Katie were on lockdown in Sandhurst, UK and seeing people panicking about their finances, losing jobs and the market crashing. They decided in that moment that they needed to do their bit to help so they created Rebel Finance School to help you take control of your finances. 150 people came to the first version, 450 to the second and 3000 to the 3rd in 2022!
RFS is a 10 week online course that takes you through all the key subjects you need to master to take control of your finance, from getting out of debt, measuring your net-worth to investing. The course is ran online once a year and you can join Alan and Katie, and thousands of other people taking control of their finances and working towards financial independence.

Alan co-founded Rebel Business School with Simon Paine after a really bad experience with the British Government Service Business Link nearly put him off entrepreneurship for life. He started Rebel Business School to counter the bad entrepreneurship advice out there and now 10 years later it is a global movement in 7 countries and spreading.
Debt and business plans aren't the way to start a business; customers are. Alan always thought that the best entrepreneurship education should be available for free and for all. We are on a mission to make entrepreneurship accessible to everyone. We find amazing sponsors like Westminster Council, Dojo and more that pay for the courses to they are free for you. 20,000+ people have been through our signature 10 day programme and no one has ever paid to come on our courses.
