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.

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.

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!!!
