But regardless of whether that unexpected growth in wealth is the result of:

• An inheritance
• Selling a property or business
• A divorce or separation
• Winning the lotto
• An insurance payout, especially from life and TPD insurance
• Receiving a severance package
• Winning a lawsuit

Suddenly having to decide what to do with a large amount of wealth can be more stressful than you may expect.

In fact, if not handled correctly with expert guidance and support, a sudden increase in wealth could potentially leave you in a situation worse than when before you received your boost in wealth.

In our experience, we’ve found that those who have recently gained a sudden increase in wealth are often struggling with:

• A lack of financial knowledge about which investment choice is the right one for them
• Knowing what to do when those close to them may start to ask for extravagant gifts or financial support
• Understanding the legal, financial and tax implications of their new growth in wealth
• Dealing with the new-found pressure that comes with managing a large amount of money
• Knowing whether a purchase is an impulse decision or one that makes sense for them in the long-run
• Ensuring that their new wealth sustains them for a lifetime as they work towards their financial goals

It can be easy when you’ve received a sudden growth in wealth to be tempted to spend it all at once. After all, you’ve worked hard, why shouldn’t you be able to take advantage of your situation to indulge?

But doing this may actually limit the choices you have available to you in the future. Instead, by waiting on making any big decisions and seeking professional advice on what to do with your windfall, your sudden wealth can be used to help you secure a brighter financial future.

But where exactly are you supposed to start?

It’s when you’re worried about or are struggling with an aspect of your financial world that having expert financial advice to guide you becomes essential.

Here’s just a few of the clients we’ve helped:

A mid-20’s construction worker who was told he’d never work again:

• This client was unexpectedly in a bad car accident and ended up in a wheelchair as a result, leaving him permanently disabled.
• While his injuries prevented him from ever working again, he received a TPD insurance payout from his multiple superannuation funds, leaving him with a sudden growth in wealth of around half a million.
• We worked with him to ensure that his wealth would be used to provide him with a comfortable income for the rest of his life.

A young woman who lost her mother two weeks after they found out she was ill:

• This client and her family unexpectedly lost their mother two weeks after she was diagnosed with a terminal illness.
• While she was grieving, this client then received an inheritance of approximately $500,000 which she had no idea what to do with.
• Knowing she wanted to use her inheritance to ensure that she and her partner were able to have the financial freedom to enjoy the life she wanted, she reached out to us for help.
• We ensured that her inheritance was being invested in a way that would allow her to have the solid base she needed to overcome her loss and move forward knowing that her financial future was secure.

A divorcee who had never had to manage money before:

• This client had spent the majority of her life trusting her ex-husband to manage every aspect of their financial world.
• She came to us after she received a lump sum of approximately $2 million as the settlement for her divorce.
• Having no knowledge of how she may best use this settlement to achieve a secure financial future, she found herself overwhelmed and worried about what her future may look like.
• We helped ease her worries by making sure her settlement was invested across a diverse range of assets through a family trust, ensuring she’ll be able to draw a comfortable income for the rest of her life.
• With her financial future secure, she was able to purchase a home and embrace the next chapter in her life to the fullest while knowing that she was taken care of financially.

A young car crash victim facing a tight deadline to make the most of her payout:

• This client suffered serious injuries from a car accident at the age of 24 that disrupted all of her future plans.
• While she was coming to grips with her injuries, she received a personal insurance payout of approximately $1.2 million which she struggled to know what to do with.
• We placed her insurance payout in an account-based pension through an SMSF, enabling her to draw a comfortable yearly income. We made sure this was done within the 90 days of her receiving her payout required to avoid unnecessary tax charges that would have severely diminished her income.
• We also uncovered an unclaimed Total & Permanent Disability policy in an unused super account, which we worked with her to successfully claim in order to provide her with a well-diversified investment portfolio.
• Now that her financial future was taken care of, she was able to focus on recovering and has recently started training to become a yoga teacher.
