I've been a client of the Financial Fitness Firm since 2004, and I truly value their assistance in showing me how to save money for my retirement. I began to consider my future seriously. Now that I'm retired, I'm happy I found this firm. I have never had a problem with them to this day. The consultants are trustworthy, and I eagerly anticipate our annual review sessions. Because I obtain the excellent financial planning I required, I have never felt alone during the entire time I have been a client of this firm.
We have been with Financial Fitness since 2004 when a colleague recommended their personal and pro-active approach. We didn't have much then, but felt secure in the knowledge that we received sound advice based on good common sense. Many years later, and we are still supported by the Financial Fitness team through thick and thin. Hanlie is always quick to respond with helpful and clear advice. We highly recommend Financial Fitness!
I have worked with the Financial Fitness team for over 12 years, initially with Vicky and for the last two years with Hanlie. During that time they have assisted me and collaborated with me for all my finance related requirements – short term policies, wills, partnership agreements, offshore account advice, investment advice and management, and general tax advice and assistance.
The advice and assistance I have been given over the years has yielded very positive results. Nothing is too much trouble for the team and I always get very prompt responses and information when it is requested. The Financial Fitness admin team is also very efficient, when liaising regarding forthcoming annual reviews, sending documents for completion or signature etc.
All my dealings with the Financial Fitness team have been extremely professional. I would highly recommend Financial Fitness as a partner for financial advice and services.
I was introduced to Financial Fitness via a Wellness Day event at my previous employers (Leaseplan Fleet Management, a subsidiary of ABN Amro). The training and interactions were very useful, particularly the debt elimination part (debtonation, as they called it). Financial Fitness was at pains to explain the Snowball method of eliminating debt and this has worked wonders for me. Further, I engaged them as my financial advisors in 1999 and have never looked back since as they helped manage my investments, which have grown exponentially. Other useful info are the insights that they bring via investment / economy updates and newsletter. I highly recommend Financial Fitness as an advisory outfit.
