In receipt of advice
Financial issues:
Ben and his partner are in debt and feel like they need a clear course of action in order to clear it. They also want to build up their savings.
Success
Ben’s spending and interest payments on credit cards were spiralling out of control at the start of the experiment but now he is far more in control and is starting to see the benefits of improved cash flow by reducing his credit balances.
Attitude to financial management
“Working with Saran has forced me to be more disciplined and not to regard financial matters as something to be feared but to be confronted positively. The meetings with Saran also made me address my rather extravagant lifestyle and re-assess my aspirations. Without this experiment I never would have thought about changing the way I manage my finances. I would definitely speak with an IFA again in the future – I found the whole experience very positive and even my friends and family have benefited from the money saving tips I have picked up along the way.”
