Lionel shares his story growing up in Bourke and insights into how he stated with his role in guiding pre-retirees and retirees toward making informed financial decisions. He likens the journey to climbing a mountain, where accumulating and maximizing wealth over a lifetime represents the ascent, and retirement marks the descent. Lionel explains the importance of having a well-thought-out financial plan and the invaluable role of a financial planner in navigating this critical phase of life. He describes how a planner provides advice and executes a personalised plan, working collaboratively with other professionals like accountants and estate planners to ensure a comprehensive approach to your life planning. While Google can offer answers, Lionel reminds us that it cannot replace the tailored guidance and hands-on support that a financial planner delivers.
