Ben Marlow has the patience of Jobe.
I would be lost without his help. I have confidence that he has my best interests at heart. I feel lucky that I am in such good hands. It’s really important when you retire, as having someone to advise you on such matters as superannuation because it was too complicated for me.
Ben has been advising me for a few years now and I hope many more years to come. Thanks again Ben.

My finances were a real mess and I was spending all my superannuation so I came to Freedom Planning with very little idea about how to solve my financial problems. Alaina was amazing. I now feel really comfortable where I am financially and I’m actually starting to understand a little bit about the financial world.

Alaina and the team are absolutely fantastic. I went into my first appointment knowing that I wanted a better financial plan for my future, but with no clear idea of what that needed to look like. Alaina was very thoughtful, thorough and genuinely interested in gaining a clear understanding of what was important for me. She gave me options that were simple, very achievable and provided the clarity for my financial future that I really needed. The entire team are really authentic and friendly. I highly recommend Alaina and the team. Top notch!!!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does a financial advisor in Ipswich do?

A financial advisor in Ipswich helps you make confident decisions about your money, including investing, superannuation, retirement planning and protecting your assets. You’ll receive personalised guidance based on your goals and financial situation.


2. Do I need a financial advisor if I don’t have a lot of money?

Yes. Financial advice isn’t just for the wealthy — it’s for anyone who wants to improve their financial position. Even small changes to budgeting, debt reduction or saving can make a big difference over time.


3. How do I choose the right financial advisor in Ipswich, QLD?

Look for an advisor with relevant experience, transparent fees, a personalised approach and strong client reviews. A first consultation is a great way to see if the advisor is the right fit for you.


4. What’s the difference between a financial planner and an independent financial advisor in Ipswich?

A financial planner focuses on long-term strategies like budgeting, super and retirement planning. An independent financial advisor isn’t tied to specific products, giving them the freedom to recommend a wider range of solutions.
