We're a small group of financial analysts who've spent years helping Australian families make sense of their budgets. No corporate speak here—just real conversations about money.
These aren't just words we put on a wall. They're the principles that guide every client conversation and every workshop we run.
We show you exactly what your financial data reveals. Sometimes that means pointing out uncomfortable truths about spending patterns, but we've found that clarity beats comfort every time.
Our techniques work for people with actual lives—shift workers, single parents, small business owners. We design budget systems around your reality, not some textbook scenario.
Financial situations change. We stay in touch with clients years after their initial sessions, helping them adjust strategies as their circumstances evolve.
Since 2019, we've been analyzing household budgets across Newcastle and the Hunter Region. Started with a shared office space and three clients who were willing to trust two former banking analysts with something new.
The work has taught us that most budget problems aren't about math—they're about timing, priorities, and having systems that don't fall apart when life gets messy. We've refined our approach based on feedback from over 400 client relationships.
Our clients stick around because we adjust strategies when things change, not because we promised them a miracle.
Two analysts with different backgrounds who happen to work well together on complex budget situations.
Senior Budget Analyst
Spent eight years in commercial banking before realizing he preferred helping people fix their personal finances. Specializes in irregular income budgeting—freelancers and contractors make up most of his client base.
Financial Systems Analyst
Background in data analytics and cost optimization. Builds the tracking systems that actually work for our clients—simple spreadsheets, not complicated software that gets abandoned after two weeks.
We spend the first meeting just understanding where money actually goes. No judgments about coffee purchases—we're looking for patterns and pinch points in your cash flow.
Build a tracking and allocation system that fits how you actually manage money. Some people need daily check-ins, others prefer weekly reviews. We match the method to your habits.
The first month is where systems usually break down. We do weekly check-ins to troubleshoot problems and adjust approaches before bad habits form.
Life changes—job shifts, family situations, unexpected expenses. We stay available for strategy updates as your circumstances evolve over time.
If you're tired of budget systems that look good on paper but fall apart in practice, we might be able to help. Our next group workshop starts in October 2025, and we're taking individual consultations through September.
