“Ashley was very informative and professional in his discussion with myself and family members, with regard to financial options in aged care for my elderly mother.”
Having been to a number of financial planners in the area, looking for one which suited us, we met Rob Goudie. A few things really stood out about Rob. Rob encourages learning and has an obvious passion for the share market. Rob has been a great support and resource to us. The advice we got was perfectly suited to us. As a young couple, he gave us advice which suited our plans, goals and stage of life. The rest of the staff at Consortium Private Wealth are friendly and are a pleasure to deal with. I am a big fan!
“Ashley has a very positive communication style when dealing with clients. He is very personable and demonstrates real empathy when dealing with what are often stressful and complex issues. He demonstrates a broad range of skills and understandings across many areas and was most helpful to me with sorting out my aged care/taxation problems.”
Ash was very down to earth and friendly, he had excellent listening skills and gave professional, informative advice. Ash has life skills that made us feel he understood. We should have done this years ago.
“Rob has an extensive knowledge on numerous different areas in regard to all financial situations. I really appreciated having someone so approachable and non-judgmental about my finances. Being young, I never really knew much and just being able to bounce ideas off a professional has been very appreciated.”
Robert has been our financial adviser since he began his business some years ago. He was extremely helpful when we retired from farming and when I introduced my mother to Robert she was also impressed with his friendly and professional manner. At one of the Wimmera Investment Club information sessions run by Robert, a guest speaker covered saving on nursing home fees using an example that matched that of my mother’s situation. As this was a rare case, Robert did a lot of research and met myself and my Mum on several occasions and explained the benefits of the new plan in a way we could understand. We believe that Robert’s efficiency is to be admired.
Ashley provided us with very valuable and timely financial advice when our mother moved into an aged care facility as a permanent resident. The information has assisted us to ensure that Mum’s existing assets are protected and that she is receiving the maximum Centrelink benefits that she is eligible for.
