Our financial situation has been quite complicated over the last 12-18 months, but the attention to detail and expertise which Adam has shown in managing our finances could not be faulted. He is passionate, knowledgeable, approachable, and has a genuine interest in ensuring what was best for us and our long-term financial security. We truly cannot recommend him highly enough

Adam has been our financial adviser for a number of years from him working for companies through to commencing his own business. We have been appreciative of the time and effort he has put into our portfolio. He is very personable in his approach with business matters and product knowledge… I have found Adam to be patient and more than happy to answer and explain anything I ask. We are very happy with Bolton Financial Services we know Adam works with our best interests at heart he understands his clients needs…

Adam’s knowledge and total professional attitude is second to none. Adam has been working with my finances for quite a number of years and his advice and guidance has helped my Super grow considerably. I feel he even had it invested smart enough that when the unknown Covid-19 hit the decrease due to the market drop was much lower than others I know.
He is quick to respond to questions and listens to you so he can work with you on your portfolio. I can highly recommend Adam, he treats a person with respect and more importantly views one as an individual not just another client.

Extra mortgage repayments lock in a guaranteed return equal to your interest rate. Extra super has usually earned more over the long run. Neither one wins automatically, and “always do X” is the wrong way to decide.
“Pay off the mortgage first” and “max your super first” are both floating around like one of them is universally correct. Neither is.
The right call depends on things a blanket rule can’t account for: your interest rate versus your expected investment return, how much certainty you need in your cash flow, how close you are to retirement, and what actually lets you sleep at night.
I’ve worked through this exact question with clients in near-identical financial positions who landed on opposite answers, because the numbers weren’t the only thing that mattered.
If you’re choosing between the two based on a rule you saw online rather than your own numbers, that’s worth a proper look.

The research is in. I don’t make the rules, I just report them. 😉
Two people can have the exact same super balance and be heading toward completely different retirements.
You’ve probably seen the $630,000 figure. It’s ASFA’s benchmark for a “comfortable” retirement as a single person, $730,000 for a couple, and it gets quoted like it applies to everyone the same way.
It doesn’t.
That number assumes you own your home outright, retire at 67, and receive a part Age Pension. It says nothing about whether you’re still paying off a mortgage, supporting family, planning to retire early, or want a retirement that looks nothing like the “average.”
I’ve had clients with almost identical balances walk into very different retirement situations, because the number was never the part that mattered. What matters is what your retirement actually needs to fund, and building toward that, not a headline figure that was never built around you.
Benchmarks are a starting point. They’re not a plan.

Everyone’s a castaway the moment there’s a signature required. 🤔😅
Jess has been on my case about more video content. This is what she got.
A few updates on my end, licensee change and some upcoming closures, including another overseas holiday, so if any of it affects you, have a watch.
The most action any of these excuses have seen all year.
Turns out “having all your eggs in one basket” isn’t a strategy, it’s a warning label. 😉
The streaming rights alone would set records.
Coming soon to a platform near you (not that one). 👀
“Rates on hold” gets reported like it’s a relief. It’s really the RBA saying the data hasn’t given them a clear enough signal to move either way.
Inflation’s still sitting at 3.8%, above where they want it. CommBank’s current view has rates staying put through the rest of 2026, with cuts not forecast until 2027.
None of that means panic. It means checking your assumptions.
If any part of your plan (a retirement date, a property purchase, paying down debt) is quietly banking on rates dropping soon, that’s worth a proper look now, not when it doesn’t happen the way you expected.
I’d always rather build a plan around what’s actually likely, then adjust if things move in your favour, than build one that only works if rates cooperate.
