Financial Planning - Creating Peace of Mind
We have a different approach to financial planning
compared to most financial advisers.
Most financial advisers look on anyone with money as a potential client. If they can make a product sale then they
are happy and take pride in the number of clients (or
should that be customers?) they have.
We look at things a lot differently.
We have a process that limits the number of clients we
look after. This ensures that the relatively small number
of clients we have get a comprehensive ongoing service.
The service has three distinct stages:
Lifeplanner
We discuss what money means to you. What are your
priorities in life - what would you do with the rest of your
life if you could afford to do it - how important are these
things - when would you ideally like to start doing them
- what's preventing you from doing them now -what are
your financial fears? How much is ENOUGH?
Financial Planner
We do the number crunching using probably the most sophisticated financial planning software available to
financial planners today. You will see how your financial
future looks now if your current expectations prove to be correct. For most people this proves to be a real wake
-up moment. Inflation is the most underestimated threat to financial planning and is the major factor when people eventually have to start the ongoing process of having to
cut back. Not the ideal way to spend your retirement.
Our financial modelling shows you what needs to be done
so that you never run out of money, using the
assumptions that you wish us to use.
