Seek advice

The importance of a good Financial Adviser

Sometimes we try and take on everything ourselves. Whilst it’s great to have a can-do attitude, we cannot expect ourselves to be experts in everything, so luckily there are people who are experts in money who can help you on your financial journey. Financial Advisers understand money, they know how it works and they have the skills, tools and technology to make the complicated world of financial planning work for their clients – no matter what their age, income or financial goals.

If you want to get your finances into an achievable financial plan that helps you reach your financial goals sooner, talk to an expert, listen to their ideas, and commit to doing something about it.

 

Spend smart, save smarter

The importance of having a budget

What if your finances take a sudden hit, are you prepared? Events such as losing your job, being asked to take a pay cut, taking time off work to be a stay-at-home parent or suffering an illness or injury can take you out of the workforce and reduce your income – which can be a shock if you are not good at budgeting.

A Financial Adviser can work on a realistic financial budget with you and discuss personal insurance options that may provide financial protection if you become ill or injured.

And remember, a budget is not just about telling you what you can and can’t spend money on, it’s a way of tracking your spending, understanding what you can cut back on, compare prices and learn what you are willing to forego in ordser to reach a more desirable, long-term financial goal.

 

Financial planning is about exploring options

Diversifying your wealth creation strategies

There are many ways you can increase your wealth, and it’s worth exploring all of them and considering whether or not they suit your individual situation, needs, values and goals. A Financial Adviser can help you look at different options such as shares, managed funds, bonds, superannuation and property, whilst keeping in mind your risk tolerance level and need for a certain level of income to pay your bills and put food on the table.

 

Take the lead and stay in control

Don’t leave the important financial decisions to someone else, get involved

If you share finances with a partner it’s a good idea to make sure you are both informed and that you discuss any major financial decisions before making them. If the relationship breaks down, or one partner becomes ill or injured, then it’s good to know the other partner in the relationship has a clear understanding of your financial position, goals and expenses. If you have any questions, please speak to your Financial Adviser.
