There is no ‘best’ time for seeking financial advice – the right time varies from person to person.

One group that we have been receiving a lot of enquiries from recently, though, are people in their 40s. Shannon explains why this is often a prime time for people to seek professional advice.

Decades of saving is a hard habit to break. For many people approaching or entering retirement, the switch from accumulation to spending is as much a mindset shift as a financial one.

In this article Mark Grasso shares his top tips for managing and enjoying this transitional period.

Mark O’Flynn has been shortlisted for the Financial Standard FS Power 50 list for 2026. The Power 50 list sets out to recognise advisers who are doing an exceptional job of demonstrating the importance of financial advice, and who take exceptional care of their clients.

Naturally we think Mark is very deserving of a spot on the final list, he’s had a big year already.
Alongside doing a tremendous job of leading and mentoring our team, he was named as the FAAA CFP of the Year, has spoken at numerous industry events, and has overseen free educational series for a range of Brisbane employers, making sure that we contribute to improved financial confidence and literacy.

To make the final list of 50, Mark now needs votes! We would be incredibly grateful for your support.

If you have a moment, we would really appreciate a moment of your time to vote for Mark.

At Oxlade we create financial plans that start with your goals, not your money, allowing us to work with you to review, achieve and exceed these goals over time.

We’re often asked when is the best time to get financial advice - we think Fletcher has the answer for this question.

We take the time to understand what truly matters most in our clients’ lives, because meaningful financial advice begins with understanding the bigger picture. ​

​From there, we help create a pathway to achieve your goals as efficiently and safely as possible, often uncovering additional opportunities and possibilities you may not have realised were within reach.

The new financial year is typically a great time to look at your financial position and the year ahead, but this year is shaping up to be more important than usual.

With changes to investment properties, superannuation contributions, negative gearing, capital gains tax and the implementation of the Div 296 Tax, now is a great time to seek financial advice & review your strategies and plan.
