Have you been discharged or have retired from the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and have been provided with compensation or a pension? If so it is essential you seek the advice of a FASEA Qualified Financial Planner to ensure the security of your financial future.
For most veterans a transition away from full-time work onto a Department Of Veterans Affairs (DVA) payment or pension means a significant shift in their finances. At National Service Financial (NSF), we facilitate financial planning specifically for veterans to ensure they can enjoy a comfortable life outside of service.
Why Speak With A Financial Advisor?
Engaging the professional expertise of a financial planner is highly recommended for anyone seeking a secure financial plan. It is especially helpful for veterans facing retirement or an early discharge as their financial situation is subject to a significant shift in these situations.
A financial advisor helps individuals to better understand their financial situation and provides professional advice on how to manage investments. They can also help to minimise the risk associated with mismanagement of finances – thereby reducing financial stress.
At National Service Financial As the DVA offer to pay for financial advice for veterans receiving Special Rate Disability Payments (SRDP), Medical Discharge payouts and other forms of compensation there really is no reason not to seek out a qualified financial planner.
Worrying about how to pay for life’s essentials or whether you can afford the life you desire post ADF service, is something a FASEA Qualified Financial Planner can help you avoid.
