A little bit about Thomas

We live in an unprecedented time of opportunity for building real, long-term wealth. But as individuals we often struggle to put together a coherent plan for our financial lives and future. My mission statement is to work with individuals, families and business owners to cut through this noise and help people find a solid foundation on which they can confidently build their financial future. Your finances should spark excitement (not stress!), and that is a reality we can build together.

Tackle tax year end with confidence

Tax rules can seem pretty impenetrable. With the new Budget, and so many different allowances and regulations to keep up with, it’s no wonder millions of us end up accidentally missing opportunities.

In this case, ignorance really isn’t bliss. And by confidently preparing for tax year end, you can be sure you’re getting all the money you’re entitled to - whether that’s by saving as much as you can tax-efficiently or just using your allowances to their full extent.

I can go through your financial position with you, so you’re ready for tax year end on 5 April. Together we can make this tax year end something to celebrate, rather than pass by. Get in touch for your tax year end review or a cashflow modelling session to understand your financial position better.

Thomas is located in Clacton-On-Sea and offers expert financial advice to suit your needs.

I believe we face one key issue in our financial lives: uncertainty. Incomes fluctuate; our goals and aspirations are forever being shaped and altered; and our confidence can easily be shaken when, for instance, a tax rule changes or a sudden expense emerges. My proposition is rooted in this philosophy: the only real certainty is that the future is uncertain, but by thinking forward and planning for contingencies we can begin to take hold of the unknown. And that’s where I come in!

I’ll help you look at your situation in clear terms, establish your goals and ambitions and build a plan that works for you in the long term - an antidote for the unknown, alleviating the stress commonly associated with finance.

Outside of financial planning my life revolves around my family, and when I’m not spending time with my wife and son I’m either in the gym, playing football or playing a synthesiser on a stage somewhere.
