Financial Adviser helping executives and business owners plan for retirement. Family man. Ageing footballer. Adequate golfer.
- A single mum working hard to provide a decent life for her two children and she’s publicly told to f*ck off. Study and work hard to earn a decent living in the UK and you’re hated for it. Such a shame people are like this. Nothing but crabs in a bucket. 🦀😔

- From 1980 to 2017, the S&P500 hit 737 new highs. Only 3 of these proved to be 'good selling opportunities'. All time market highs are the norm and should be embraced, not feared. The market will not be timed. Credit: @michaelbatnick @awealthofcs #AnimalSpirits #InvestmentWisdom
- Young financial planners have the distinct advantage of being by their clients' side for 30 years. Being young should never be framed as a negative in this game. People don't want to change their adviser ever 5 years because they keep retiring. We're in it for the long haul 🤝
- I get asked how I became a financial adviser and my stock answer is 'I fell into it.' The real answer is 16 exams, extensive reading, audio books and podcasts, asking people for help, networking and good luck. Other than that, I fell into it.
- A very proud man right now. Yesterday my wife Amy and I welcomed our baby girl into the world. Mum and baby doing fine and we're all incredibly happy and tired 😅🥰
- Any client told to 'do nothing' with their investments back in March 2020 is going to be very happy with their financial adviser.
- My job is to plot someone's path from point A to point B, using my knowledge of the best routes available. They buy the map, but what they're really paying for is the navigation. That's financial planning.
- How do you find out if someone's invested in crypto? Don't worry, they'll tell you.
- Please can we start teaching children about inflation, compound interest, asset classes and debt in schools? Money is an integral part of life - all but ignored by the education system. Time for this to change 💷🤓
- AF1 today. Final exam to reach #chartered. Last night’s dreams filled with gifting sequences and PPR timelines 😱. Good luck to everyone sitting exams this week 🍀
