With the world in chaos these days, I feel protected by Daniel.Virginia Adlide Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best!Adrienne Hilton Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having had Daniel Thompson's assistance with financial planning over many years I can highly recommend his services through his business New Era Financial Planning. Daniel's experience and knowledge has allowed him to provide advice and benefit us across multiple generations of our family. He supports our young adult children in starting their careers and assists them to make well grounded and informed financial decision (an essential time to start we believe), he supported myself during my working career and now recent retirement and also my elderly parents. We highly recommend Daniel for his professional, intuitive approach with access to broad resources as well as carefully considered solutions that are underpinned by his proactive responses to our needs.Louise Davis Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

My partner and I were very new to the world of financial planning and we had been trying to break into the property market. Daniel quickly made us feel at ease and he took his time to really understand our financial circumstances. Daniel is able to take complicated financial concepts and make them accessible. We felt understood and established a trustworthy working relationship with Daniel and his team and they were super flexible to work with (invaluable when you're working full time with young children!) Now that we have bought our first home, we're keen to build on the advice Daniel has given us and we're looking forward to working with him in the future.Naomi Starmer Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After being referred to Daniel Thompson by a family member, I began the process of investing in my future. Daniel has been wonderful throughout the whole process, which has been very gradual and gentle. I feel confident that Daniel will assist in making my goals come to fruition, which includes early retirement and financial freedom. Can't wait to see what the future holds!Brianna Moore Posted on GoogleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

What you’ll walk away with

A plan you can actually follow
No more guessing. You’ll have a clear financial roadmap that shows exactly where you are, where you’re heading, and the very next step to take — so every decision moves you forward instead of adding to the pile.

Clarity and confidence with every decision
Money stops being a source of stress and starts being something you feel on top of. You’ll understand what you’re doing and why, with an expert in your corner — so you can make big calls (and sleep at night) knowing the right plans and protection are in place.

Real, lasting growth
This is where it compounds. We’ll help you keep more of your income, put your savings, super & investments to work, and build toward the big goals — the home, the freedom, the future — so your hard work actually builds something that lasts.
