How much is enough to retire on?

It's not just a number; it's the key to reaching your dreams and building a retirement that you’ve worked hard for.

Retire in style

Craft a financial safety net

There comes a time in life when you need to step away from your business and enjoy your golden years. The key to this is to set aside money early on to ensure you have a solid financial cushion and prepare for the sale or exit of your business in advance.

The concept of “enough” varies from person to person, but what truly matters is gaining a clear understanding of the retirement lifestyle you desire, and then charting your financial path accordingly.

How we help you…

Assessing your position

Our emphasis is not on numbers displayed on a screen. Instead, we offer engaging visuals to bring clarity to the bigger financial picture and provide a clear overview. Using ‘what-if?’ scenarios, we’ll establish how much you need to cover future expenses and live a comfortable life.

Preparing for sale

No matter how much you love your business, there comes a time when you must start to think about how and when you will retire or sell your business. We’ll start planning so your business is in great financial shape when the time comes, and you end up with enough to maintain your lifestyle.

Financial planning

Our goal is for you to have enough money to enjoy the rest of your life. Part of this might include tax-efficient investments, creating an income during retirement and preparing for later life. Your journey is our journey, and we are committed to fine-tuning your financial plan as your life unfolds.

The value of investments and any income from them can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the original amount invested.

Your journey

Step 1

Initial chat

The starting point on your journey with us is designed to give you the space to talk and tell us about your goals.

Step 2

Status check

We will gather additional information, including your income, expenditure and lifestyle, and then we will map out what could affect these over time.

Step 3

Uncover scenarios

We will have another meeting to identify different scenarios. This will consider questions such as “Can I retire early?”.

Step 4

Staying on track

Seeing your plans come to life is the best part of our job and we will be there to guide you on this journey.

What our clients say

While we could certainly say tons of great things about our work and success stories, isn’t it more fitting to let our clients do the talking?

Nigel has been very helpful by setting up meetings with me and my family during which he was able to explain the financial implications of my future plans. He has acquainted himself with my financial investments, and advised me on matters relating to investments, capital and income. I am confident in Nigel's knowledge and abilities to reach the required outcome in due course.

My pensions were all over the place. I also needed a will. Nigel organised my pensions so they were all in one place and he organised my will. I would consider recommending Nigel to anyone who expressed a need to speak to an adviser.

My husband and I were seeking to invest a lump sum for the future and to provide a pension, alongside other investment opportunities. Nigel diligently gathered information from us regarding our aims and goals for the future and our attitude to risk. This has enabled him to advise accordingly on portfolios to match our needs and comfort levels. We are confident that with Nigel's able assistance, we will reap the rewards in due course.
