Think about this; if you were lost in the forest, the first thing you would want to know is where you are, so then you know which way to walk to reach the exit. If you don’t know your location, which way would you walk? For how long do you need to walk? Do you have enough time to reach the exit befo...

We are financial planners, that’s our job and hopefully it comes as no surprise when we say we take it very seriously.

As you have likely heard us say many times before, we advocate saving money, investing that money, and taking a long-term view when it comes to your financial world. The simple rea...

What can we say about Donald Trump? Well, to be honest, there’s probably a lot we could say… but love him or loathe him, we can likely all agree that he has been a one-man wrecking ball these past few weeks!  

Many assume that Mr Trump in charge of the US is good for business and therefore good for...

Before we get stuck into today’s Money in Minutes, a quick high five to the Reserve Bank who finally lowered the official cash rate last Tuesday. Your lender will communicate what this means for you and your loan, and please ensure that you understand as to whether your repayments will automatically...

If you had $10 million you could probably have money fights with yourself, buy lots of unnecessary stuff, help charities in need, and still have plenty of money to be financially secure AND most importantly, hang up your work boots!
