Mud & Money is the straight-talking financial guide for oil & gas professionals, combining industry knowledge with expert planning so O&G pros can turn “mud money” into lasting wealth.
Why Mud & Money?
“Mud” is the lifeblood of the drilling process — the fluid that keeps the bit turning and the well flowing. At Saxon Financial Group, we believe financial planning for O&G professionals works the same way: it requires the right mix, constant monitoring, and expert management to keep your future flowing in the right direction.

Navigating a 401(k) or Pension Rollover? That's Part of Our Process.
Leaving an energy employer often turns retirement planning into a set of immediate decisions: what to do with the 401(k), how a pension election fits, and whether company stock changes the tax picture.
For oil and gas professionals, we review those pieces together. Start with our guide to rolling over a 401(k) to an IRA, then compare the timing issues in a layoff or an early-retirement package.
The right path depends on your age, plan rules, pension options, company stock, and income timing. Our role is to turn those moving pieces into one coordinated retirement plan.
Roll into an IRA
A direct rollover can consolidate old workplace accounts without current tax, while expanding investment choice.
Leave it in the plan
This may preserve plan-specific access, including rule-of-55 flexibility when it applies.
Move to a new 401(k)
Useful when the new employer plan is strong and accepts roll-ins, but you inherit that plan’s rules.
Cash out
Usually the last resort because taxes and penalties can permanently reduce retirement capital.
