On the whole, Australians are not doing very well financially. 79% of us over 65 have annual incomes of less than $12,000! Only 1% have incomes over $40,000 pa (Source: ABS 2002).
Apart from our home and compulsory superannuation, many of us don't invest or have limited investments. So we stress about money, ultimately affecting our health and our quality of life. Making more money can help but this is often not the answer. We just do more of what we're currently doing and never quite get ahead.
Most of us want to increase our wealth to the extent that it generates a passive income. That's an income generated from our investments rather than our work.
On top of this, most of us have other financial goals:
Paying off our home
Educating our kids
Enjoying regular holidays
Have a reasonable lifestyle
Upgrading our car regularly
Not letting money worries affect our relationships
Having enough money so that we look forward to retiring
Unbiased Wealth Coaching is the future of wealth advice. It is the unique combination of the strategic Wealthyfrog Coaching System AND the power of unbiased education and mentoring. Wealthyfrog has successfully assisted numerous clients with their wealth creation. Wealthyfrog is designed to keep you motivated to take action and stay on track with your finances. You receive one-on-one customised coaching to support you to make informed financial decisions that are right for you.
Wealth creation can be a simple and a sometimes rapid process - with Wealthyfrog, you get clear, simple strategic advice and you'll always retain 100% control of your money. With Wealthyfrog you'll feel completely secure knowing that you'll always have your own personal Wealth Coach by your side to assist you at every step of the way to your financial future, so that later, you'll have enough time and you'll have enough money.
These days, it seems like everyone is trying to sell something, and unbiased help is rare indeed. Many of those who do have something to sell like to pretend that they don't! What makes Wealthyfrog different is that we don't sell anything or get any kickbacks from anybody, we work purely on annual membership fees. In fact, you simply can't buy investments or anything else from us. Our Wealth Coaches are on an established income, so they can concentrate solely on helping you make financial progress.
The benefits of neutral, unbiased coaching include:
Your Wealth Coach can focus totally on helping you achieve your financial goals and securing your future
There are no commissions or quotas to fill
All types of investments can be viewed equally on their own merits
The structure of your home loan can be viewed on its own merits and the same goes for personal finance and insurance
Much of your forward progress will depend on doing the fundamentals well and building strong foundations first. Your coach can take time to ensure you get this right, because he or she is under no pressure to make a commission.
Have you ever wondered if people giving advice have actually done it themselves? How many are wealthy and successful with their own money? Great coaches learn their trade in the field as well as in the classroom.
Our Wealth Coaches are very special people. Naturally, they have Financial Planning Qualifications but we view that as just the apprenticeship. To become a Wealth Coach, they have to be successful with their own money. Your coach will provide practical solutions you can understand, because they've very likely been down the same path you're about to embark on. Their success is the key to our credibility.
Ongoing Support and Coaching
You'll benefit from the totally positive outlook and attitude your Wealth Coach has towards helping you achieve your financial goals. That's why they're doing it - because they have a strong interest and a real enjoyment in helping people to move forward with their finances. This is one of the main things we look for when we appoint a coach.
We understand that things won't magically fall into place after just one meeting. It takes encouragement and effort to break old habits. And sometimes investment strategies need to be reworked over time. An essential ingredient for your success will be regular sessions with your coach. And isn't it reassuring to know you always have someone to call on any time you need help? And when you're ready to continue with your plans into the second year and beyond, your Wealth Coach will be there to help you grow.
To do this and to achieve the maximum results for each of our clients, see below the Wealthyfrog Coaching System Diagram to help you understand this dynamic process. Each step is individually customised to you and your individual situation.
The Freedom Curve is a valuable tool that Wealthyfrog uses to help clients set wealth goals and track progress over time. Here's a hypothetical example of the variables we input to provide such a graphic representation. (Please note these calculations are for the purposes of example only and should not be relied upon for investment decisions. Real life situations are much more complex!).
Let's say you want to retire with a passive income of $50,000 per annum and live purely off the income your investments are earning (without eating into the capital). The current value of your investment assets is around $100,000, not including your home. You start working seriously on wealth creation this year and plan to retire in 15 years time. Let's assume that in retirement you can expect to earn about a 5% return on your lump sum plus enough capital growth to keep up with inflation.
To reach the level of passive income you want, you'll need investments to the value of $1 million in today's dollars (over $1.5 million with a constant annual inflation rate of 3%). This graph represents the progress you need to make to achieve your financial goals. Wealthyfrog will help you work out a strategy to achieve those goals and keep you on track. By breaking it down to 3 year milestones it seems a lot less challenging and your million dollar goal becomes much simpler to reach.
It can be hard to get the right advice on getting ahead financially. Financial planners have skills to invest your big super payout and accountants are great for doing your tax return. But how do you learn how to create wealth in the first place?
You will not be sold properties, investments, property loans, insurance policies or superannuation funds
You will not be told what to invest in, or how much to invest
You will not get decisions made for you
You won't be left to your own devices
You will not get biased advice
