Why use us?

We are here to take away the mental load and stress of managing your money and provide you with a personalised plan of exactly how you can reach your goals. Through ongoing advice we can help keep you on track through whatever life throws at you.

We are experts in wealth creation and superannuation strategy and have helped people to achieve the future they have been dreaming of, including building their asset bases, retiring early, reducing their debts, and taking control of their cashflow.

Our Customer Charter sets out the philosophy of our approach which we believe sets us apart from others.

Customer Charter

We believe in honesty and integrity.

We will always put your best interests first.

We will talk your language and not use jargon.
We will take the time to explain everything we do and how this will put you in a better position.
If you are already in the best position, we will tell you this.

We believe in strategic advice. Having the best strategy in place for each client is important to us.

We believe in fee-for-service, having a fully transparent pricing structure where you choose how much you
would like to pay on an ongoing basis for your super and investments.
We will not charge you a fee based upon a percentage of your balance.

Where we refer you to other specialists, we will only ever refer you to trusted professionals
that we use ourselves.

Who do we help?

We help people that are ready to take the next step in the journey to financial freedom. Our specialty is helping our clients to build their asset base as a stepping stone to their unique goals - whether that be early retirement, spending more time with family and less time working for a salary,or having the financial stability to be confident in launching your own dream business.

You might be a busy professional who has reached a turning point in your life. Perhaps you have been working in your career for a few years and earning good money, but when you look at your assets you feel that you could do more.

Maybe you are getting ready to start a family and you are wanting to be more financially secure.
Or it could be that you long to retire early so you can spend more quality time with your family.

Working for you, we will listen closely to you so we can learn what your goals and aspirations are, coming up with a plan that helps you strengthen your financial position and achieve the life you desire.

“Ben has helped me set myself up properly with building a solid base for my financial investments and
adding onto my super funds. He has been very helpful throughout the process going the extra mile to
meet me at weird times to accommodate my long working hours and the fact that I frequently travel
for work.

I also appreciate the fact that Benjamin has been transparent throughout the whole process and always
willing to explain matters that I did not fully understand. Ben is definitely someone I will have as my
finance advisor for a long time to come and I would highly recommend his services to others.”
