Success story

Jane, a single mum in her 50s, was at the crossroads with her finances. As a new divorcee, who had moved into her new home with her teenage son, Jane was anxious about the rising cost of her life insurance premiums and an uncertain financial outlook. Ilya engaged Jane in a comprehensive discussion that went beyond just life insurance planning. Together, they achieved:

Life Insurance:

a restructure of Jane’s coverage that resulted in improved value for money. Most premiums could also be paid through her superannuation, reducing Jane’s out-of-pocket expenses.

Superannuation:

Following an in-depth analysis of Jane’s current fund, Ilya found a more efficient, lower-cost option for her, setting her on course for a more prosperous retirement.

Salary Sacrificing:

The savings on insurance premiums allowed Jane to put more into her superannuation, ensuring better future financial stability.

Mortgage:

Funds were relocated from saved insurance premiums, enabling Jane to increase her home loan repayments, and set her up on track to be mortgage-free by her expected retirement age.

Estate Planning:

Ilya connected Jane with a qualified solicitor to prepare her Will and Powers of Attorney, offering her peace of mind when it came to her son.

Having received the best holistic financial advice, Jane now has a financial plan on which she and her son can rely. She has less anxiety and stronger confidence about her future.
