We hear it all the time. Stereotypes about the financial planning world come by the 100s…no 1000s! More often than not, people don’t realise that a financial planner can be a useful asset to any and every stage of their life.
​
 “Oh! But working with an adviser is just about spending less than what I am earning.’.

“Okay I need help, but is a financial adviser really worth it?”

You have no idea how often we hear this. Too many to count, that is for sure.  Most people know that a financial adviser will add value, but the question we get asked is if that value can justify the fees.
Short answer – YES!

Cashflow System: Guilty Pleasures Are Okay! from Kora Drage on Vimeo.

​OKAY CHILL! Breathe in, breathe out and have a slice of your favourite guilty pleasure. ‘Wait, what? I thought that was doing me more harm than good?’. Sometimes it is okay to take the guilt out of those guilty pleasures. The point of saving and budgeting is not to live like a pauper and miss out on quality life experiences – that is extreme, even for us!

‘We’re Watching’: The Tool of Visibility from Kora Drage on Vimeo.

​So you’ve made the call; “I am going to be honest with myself and take a look at where my money is going! But where am I going to hide all my bad habits..?”

We hear you loud and clear! Putting your financial situation and spending on display can be a daunting task. Perhaps you have been doing a little too much online shopping lately, you went out for dinner a handful more times than anticipated and I mean, you really did neeeeed that new phone. We have all been there, don’t sweat it. Even the best of us have had times where we spent everything we earned, and when we went to check our bank balance, we were less than ecstatic.

The FIFO Financial Mindset

The FIFO Dilema; Where is all your money? from Kora Drage on Vimeo.

You are in a remote location for sometimes up to a month, thousands of kilometres away from home and are paid a fat six-figure salary. That #fifolife includes making an appearance at the airport in your hi-vis and heading back to site like clockwork. Ah, the dream, right? But then why do most FIFO workers have no more than $10k in their bank account? Even though just about everything is covered for onsite?

FIFOs often start with the idea of doing it short-term. Their primary objective was to make a large amount of money for a few years, in order to pay down the mortgage or set themselves up. When speaking to FIFO workers, we have found that a lot of them are years down the road and are actually no closer to where they want to be than they were when they first set off to site.
