Wealth Creation, Savings + Investments

Wealth Creation, Savings + Investments

TBC

Our Areas of Expertise include:

Wealth creation through saving and investing is crucial for achieving long-term financial goals, such as buying a home, retiring early, or simply enjoying financial freedom.

However, choosing investments that align with your personal objectives, risk tolerance, and time horizon can be an overwhelming and difficult task with so many options to choose from.  Our experienced financial advisers at Canny Group can provide expert guidance and help you develop a strategy tailored to your specific needs.  They offer valuable insights to help you optimise your investment decisions and ensure you’re on track to reach your wealth creation goals with confidence.

How to start investing in Australia

Before investing, the first and most important step is to either educate yourself on the investment options available to you or see a professional, like a financial adviser, who can provide expert guidance.

Then, you should sit down and set clear financial goals and assess how much risk you are willing to take to achieve your goals.  This will enable you to make an informed investment decision and understand how to get started depending on what investment strategy you choose to take.

What is a wealth creation strategy?

A wealth creation strategy is a plan to build and grow your financial assets over time to achieve your long-term financial goals.

Developing an effective strategy and selecting the right investments can be an overwhelming and complex task, which can lead to inaction.  At Canny Group, our financial advisers are experts in formulating wealth creation strategies tailored to our clients’ individual circumstances and financial goals and can provide guidance to ensure you stay on track to achieve your goals.

What are the four pillars of wealth creation?

The four pillars of wealth creation are:

  1. Earning;
  2. Saving;
  3. Investing; and
  4. Protecting.

Earning involves generating income through your job or business.  Savings focuses on spending less than you earn.  Investing involves utilising your savings and investing these funds into assets that will hopefully grow over time and provide you with income.  Protecting your wealth ensures that you have the required personal insurance, such as Life, Total and Permanent Disablement, Trauma, and Income Protection cover, and ensuring that you have the appropriate estate planning documents in place.

These pillars work together to ensure you build your wealth over time, whilst also protecting the wealth you have already built.

When is the right time to start investing?

The right time to start investing is as soon as possible.

The earlier you start, the more time there is to benefit from compound growth, which can be a powerful tool in your wealth-creation journey.  Even if you start investing with a small amount, that is better than inaction and can still generate significant wealth over the long term if you remain consistent.  It is important that before you start investing, you are in a stable position financially by having a stable income, a solid emergency fund in place, and minimal or no consumer debt.  Furthermore, consider leaving additional funds aside in cash if you have any large upcoming expenses in the short to medium-term future.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I start wealth creation?

The most important part of starting your wealth creation journey is ensuring you spend less than you earn. Without this, you won't be able to generate sufficient savings to invest. To gain an understanding of how much you can save, you should start with completing a realistic budget and seeing if there are any items in your spending that you could potentially reduce or remove. If you can't reduce your current level of spending, is there any way you can increase your income? Once you have worked out how much you can save each week, you can then start to develop an investment strategy.

What are the best investment options in Australia?

There isn't a single "best" investment option in Australia as it depends on your individual financial goals and your individual risk tolerance.

What is a risk profile + do I need one?

A risk profile is an assessment of an individual investor's willingness and ability to take on investment risks and helps determine a balance between your tolerance for risk and the potential returns you are aiming to achieve. Being aware of your risk profile means you can tailor your financial goals and investment strategies to the level of risk you are comfortable being exposed to, helping you make more informed investment decisions.

What are the benefits of investing?

Investing allows you to grow your wealth over time to achieve your financial or lifestyle goals. A successful investment portfolio will ideally provide returns equal to or higher than the inflation rate, to ensure the wealth you have generated retains its current purchasing power. Any returns generated above this will help you get further ahead in your wealth creation journey. Ultimately, investing is a powerful tool if you are consistent over a long period of time and can help you achieve the ultimate financial freedom and lifestyle you desire.

What is the difference between a wealth manager + a wealth adviser?

The term wealth manager and wealth adviser can be used interchangeably. A weal manager/adviser may also be known or referred to as a fund manager, stockbroker, or financial adviser/planner. At Canny Group, we have a team of financial advisers who provide holistic and strategic financial advice based on your individual goals and circumstances, rather than focusing solely on generating a return on your investment portfolio. A financial adviser or a financial planner is different to a fund manager or a stockbroker, who usually focus on managing investment portfolios and don't provide holistic or strategic advice.

What is the minimum net work for an investment adviser?

At Canny Group, we don't have a minimum net worth requirement. This is because we provide holistic advice, therefore there are many other factors that we need to consider when deciding if you would benefit from receiving financial advice. It isn't as simple as looking at the wealth you have available to invest.

IT WAS LIKE RECEIVING ADVICE FROM YOUR MUM – BUT YOU ACTUALLY LISTEN TO IT!

We have been with Canny Group for seven years now.  After deciding at the start of 2020 we wanted to start a new business, we took the idea straight to Amanda who offered us second to none advice.  It was like receiving advice from you mum, but you actually listen to it.

Amanda was kind, compassionate but incredibly real – her open and honest communication meant we were going into our venture with our eyes wide open to some of the hard facts of business but felt we had the tools for success.  After months of feedback and tweaking to our business plan – we have confidently been able to take the next steps into bring our venture to life.

Without Amanda, her great advice, time and mentoring, we would not be seeing the success we are today!
