Real outcomes, real Australian clients.

Between them, six super accounts from various past jobs. They didn't really know what they were invested in or how much they were paying in fees.

A vague sense they were losing money to duplicate fees and insurance premiums — but no idea how much.

Consolidated six accounts into two well-performing funds, carefully transferred their existing insurance cover without losing benefits, and reset their investment strategy to match their long-term goals.

Wei was the primary income earner. The family had basic default insurance through super but had never reviewed whether it was enough.

"What happens to the family if something happens to me?" — but every conversation about insurance had felt overwhelming.

Calculated the family's actual cover needs based on income, debts and lifestyle. Restructured Life, TPD, Income Protection and Trauma through a mix of super and outside super for maximum tax efficiency.

James assumed he'd need to work until at least 67. He had a reasonable super balance and some investments but no clear plan.

That retirement would be a huge financial step down, or that he'd work longer than he needed to.

Modelled multiple retirement scenarios, implemented a transition-to-retirement strategy to boost super and reduce tax, and restructured his investments into a proper retirement portfolio.

Kevin was paying over $4,800 a year in income protection premiums directly out of his bank account, through a legacy policy set up years earlier.

The premiums kept creeping up each year, but switching felt risky and complicated.

Reviewed his full insurance picture, restructured his income protection partially through super to improve tax-effectiveness, and placed his life and TPD cover with an insurer better suited to his profile.

Jasmine had a healthy super balance and wanted to buy an investment property but wasn't sure if SMSF was the right structure.

Getting SMSF wrong can be expensive. She wanted expert guidance, not guesswork.

Assessed whether SMSF suited her circumstances, set up the fund, coordinated with her accountant and a specialist mortgage broker to structure an LRBA (Limited Recourse Borrowing Arrangement), and helped her purchase the property.

Daniel was earning well but doing nothing strategic with his money. He thought financial planning was something for "later".

A nagging sense that he was wasting his prime earning years.

Set up appropriate personal insurance while he's young and healthy (and premiums are cheap), implemented a salary sacrifice strategy into super, and started a separate investment plan outside super for medium-term goals.

All of Tony's wealth was tied up in his business. He had minimal super, inadequate personal insurance, and no real succession plan.

"What if I get sick? What if the business has a bad year? When can I actually step back?"

Put proper key person and personal insurance in place (tax-effectively through the business), maximised super contributions through his company structure, set up an SMSF for greater control, and started planning his business exit over a 7-year horizon.
