Building strong relationships to push the boundaries of possibilities.
Meet Janet Hugo
I have developed this online space to share my and my family’s experience of the financial services industry. From being on the receiving end of very poor financial advice, to our family experience of living with a dreaded disease and all that implies.
As a financial planner I have the privilege of helping my clients achieve peace of mind when it comes to their financial affairs. I landed up in the industry to do just that for our family.
The phrase “you can’t trust a skinny chef” has always made me smile. I’ve collected some great practical tips about products, financial planning, dreaded disease and tax that I would like to share with you.

Our Experience of
About 15 years ago, I was a stay at home mom with children of 6 and 8. Although I was active in my husband’s investment management business, I had no source of my own income and it started to worry me. I suppose I was asking the “What happens if…?” questions.
I have learned that planning for a dreaded disease event and experiencing it as a family are very different things. I had no idea how much time would need to be invested in the administration that goes along with several different doctors and their accounts, the tax queries on legitimate medical claims and then the time drain of waiting.
Estate planning is not about minimising taxes and having enough money for your dependents. I really believe that having your affairs in order is one of the last acts of love you can do for the people you leave behind.
