Outside of work – what do you like to do?
Outside of work I enjoy playing and listening to all types of music. I also enjoy staying active, and spending time with family.
What is one thing about you that people would be surprised to know?
My new hobby is to keep bees. Have been doing this for approximately 18 months. It is a very interesting process, with some sweet rewards at the end of the day.
Name one person that you draw inspiration from and why?
I don’t necessarily draw inspiration from any particular individual, but I do admire and try to adopt life skills from those who continually lift themselves across all facets and challenges of life. This includes individuals in music, commerce, business, sports, and even social welfare environments. There are many people who kick big and small goals everyday.
What is your favourite book, movie and food?
I enjoy Mediterranean and Greek foods. Not a a real movie goer, enjoy a good documentary more so.
I knew we needed a clear and straightforward plan that focused on our specific goals. Without going through the goal setting process, I think we would have continued with ad hoc investing that reacted to markets, instead of having a very specific plan. Once everything is set up, the process really is set and forget. We have 2 simple goals: to retire “on time” with our goal retirement funds behind us; and to continue investing to support our income goals. Both of them are on track!
I have found Rob and his team exceptionally insightful and valuable in their down-to-earth and strategic advice over the past 13 years — and they keep getting better and better. I give them my highest recommendation!!!
Rob has successfully managed the transition from our working lives to us becoming comfortably retired. During our over a decade long association as clients, Rob and his team presented a thoroughly professional, optimistic and supportive program on behalf of his efforts to represent us.
Thank you for your honesty and for giving me faith and trust in my happy financial future.
