Questions & Answers
Q1: How does "The Financial Life Coach" differ from traditional financial planners?
A1: Unlike traditional planners, we focus on your overall life satisfaction, not just your financial wealth. We utilise the threshold hypothesis to balance your consumption with wellbeing. Our tools and strategies are designed to optimise your financial resources, ensuring they support a fulfilling life that’s in harmony with your values and life goals.
Q2: What services do "The Financial Life Coach" offer for someone without substantial investment assets?
A2:Â Our services are inclusive, catering to varying financial situations. With tools like HapNav for self-guided planning and Voyant for more sophisticated, planner-assisted strategies, we support those with smaller financial portfolios as well as those dealing with substantial assets. We show you how to create income and capital to plug cash flow shortfalls. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge and skills to navigate your financial journey confidently.
Q3: Can "The Financial Life Coach" help me if I'm already in retirement?
A3: Absolutely. Our lifecycle cash flow forecasting is particularly beneficial for those in retirement. We’ll help you understand your financial trajectory, assess potential healthcare costs, and ensure that your resources are managed wisely to provide for your current and future needs without the risk of outliving your capital.
Q4: What is the Ikigai proposition, and how does it integrate with financial planning?
A4: Our Ikigai proposition is rooted in the Japanese concept that combines what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. We integrate this with financial planning by aligning your financial resources to not only support your life's necessities but also to enable you to pursue passions, contribute meaningfully, and develop personal growth, hence enhancing your 'Kokoro'—mind, body, heart, and spirit.
Q5: If I have a surplus of wealth, how can "The Financial Life Coach" assist me?
A5: For clients with excess wealth, we provide succession planning and philanthropic strategies, ensuring that your legacy contributes to the well-being of future generations or causes you’re passionate about. We aim to help you make impactful decisions that reflect your values and the mark you wish to leave on the world.
Q6: I’m interested in self-directed financial planning. How can "The Financial Life Coach" support me in this?
A6:Â Our self-directed tool, HapNav, is perfect for the independent planner. It provides a framework for you to manage your financial life, with the added option of seeking our collaborative guidance when needed. We believe in empowering you to take charge of your financial future while being available to support you on your journey.
