What were the circumstances that caused you to initially look for an adviser?

I first spoke to Simon when I was thinking about retiring early.

How has Simon Wateridge helped you?

Simon made sure that I had all my pension savings in the one pot which meant it was much easier to invest. He worked with me through the decision making process and provided all the information I needed to make the decision to retire age 63.

Have you seen the outcome you were hoping for?

Yes. My pension is doing really well.

Simon:

Thank you for the 5* review, Gail - it's really appreciated. I'm very pleased to have helped you retire at age 63, and build you a personalised plan in doing so - which you are clearly reaping the rewards & enjoyment from. Have a great weekend. I look forward to speaking with you again soon. Simon
