Michael PRUs

Michael is the President and Founder of Scale Investment Group. He started the firm to provide investors a low-cost, research based investment management alternative to over-priced, under-informed advisors who don’t work in their clients best interests. He has a particular affinity for retirement savings, specifically 401(k) plans.

Michael completed a Bachelor of Science in business with a dual major in Finance and Management Information Systems from Drexel University in Philadelphia, graduating two terms early. He went on to earn an MBA from The Pennsylvania State University where he was the Musser Fellow.

Mike started his career in 2002 and draws heavily on his time in the industry, particularly his experience in research, to manage investments. Michael has written countless articles, blog posts and research papers on various investment related topics. He has been quoted in numerous publications such as Pensions and Investments magazine and is an in-demand speaker, having shared his expertise with thousands of people on a myriad of investing topics.  

When not working, Michael enjoys spending time with his dog, Bogle, mountain-biking, traveling and playing guitar. Michael is fluent in Polish and is conversant in German.
