💬 You shouldn’t need a financial dictionary to understand a conversation about your own money.

Choosing a financial adviser is about finding someone you feel comfortable with. Someone who listens, explains things clearly and gives you space to ask questions. 🙋‍♂️

Whether you’re planning for retirement, saving for the future or wondering where to start, your goals should be at the heart of the conversation. 🎯

Fancy a chat? Drop me a message and let’s arrange a coffee. ☕

The value of an investment can go down as well as up. You could get back less than you invested.

As a business owner myself, I know how easy it is to get caught up in the day-to-day and put our own planning further down the list! 📋

I’m looking forward to joining APS Advisory as one of the speakers at their free Advice Day on Tuesday 17th November, talking about financial planning and how your pensions, savings and investments fit into the bigger picture.

We’ll be exploring an important question: what happens to your business—and those you care about—if you don’t turn up tomorrow?

A relaxed opportunity to hear from four specialists, ask questions and consider where your own plans might need some attention.

🕙 Sessions at 10am, 12pm and 2pm
✅ Free to attend, with no obligation

Could your next career move be into financial advice?

Having come through the St. James’s Place Academy myself, I know how valuable previous career and life experience can be in this profession.

I’m looking to welcome a financial adviser to SCC Financial—whether you’re already advising or considering a career change through the Academy.

If you enjoy working with people and want to build lasting client relationships, I’d love to hear from you.

Get in touch for an informal, confidential chat—or share this with someone who might be interested.

Is there an age limit to join the Academy?

There's no official restriction - what we care about most is your experience, not your age.

Whether you're looking for a complete career change, returning to work after a break, or simply ready for something new, what matters most is your commitment to building a career in financial advice, though career changers are best suited to our programme.

Many of our Academy delegates join us with a wealth of life and professional experience from a wide range of backgrounds.

One of our most frequently asked questions - how much does it cost to join the Academy?

The answer? It's funded for you.

St. James's Place fully funds your Academy journey, including reimbursing you for the two exams you must complete before starting Term 1. As it's a full time commitment, you'll receive additional financial support throughout in order to ensure the smoothest transition possible for you into your new career.

🏆 Yesterday’s winner isn’t guaranteed to win tomorrow… and investing is no different! 💷📈

It’s tempting to see an investment doing brilliantly and think, “I’ll have some of that!” 👀🚀

But by the time everyone is talking about it, its price may already have risen a long way. Those impressive results don’t tell us what happens next. 🔮🤷‍♂️

This article from St. James’s Place explores why chasing the latest winners can catch investors out. 📰👇

A few simple reminders:

🥚 Spread your money rather than putting all your eggs in one basket.
🎯 Keep your own goals in focus.
🧘 Take a breath before reacting to the latest headlines.
🤝 Review decisions with someone who understands your circumstances.

Have a read over a cuppa ☕ — it’s a useful reminder that a good financial plan needs more than a look at last year’s results! 😊

Past performance is not a reliable guide to future performance. Investments can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you invest.
