About Mike

I am a qualified financial adviser with over 30 year experience (but please don’t let that put you off). Because my passion isn’t about money - it’s about building a plan around:

  • who you are,
  • what makes you tick,
  • and what future you’d love to have.

I am passionate about:

  • Helping financially protect families, helping children and managing health issues.
  • Protecting and enjoying lifestyle, family security and replacing loss of income.
  • Achieving financial comfort, building and protecting your nest egg, ensuring a regular pay cheque and saving for the future.
  • Planning for expected and unexpected.
  • Building a legacy, wills and power of attorney, living legacy.
  • Time with my family, refereeing rugby and touch, fishing blue cod and trout.

My Three Golden Rules

  1. Help you to the best of my ability.
  2. Provide an ongoing service.
  3. Build trust and confidence.

Neither Lifetime nor I have been subject to a reliability event. A reliability event is something that might influence you in deciding whether to seek advice from either myself or Lifetime. As an example, this would be a serious event such as legal proceedings against me, or bankruptcy in the last four years.
