In this episode, Pete speaks to Tony Thomas a chartered financial planner from Wales with over 30 years experience. They talk about investments, coaching and more in this beneficial and informative episode.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
People are more open talking about money than generations previously.
Tony has such passion and enjoyment for helping people achieve what they want to achieve. There is nothing better for him than showing people how they can achieve the lifestyle and reality they want.
The pandemic will have had an impact on the age that people want to retire. Working both ways, some will have enjoyed the additional free time they have had for hobbies so will want to retire early, whereas other haven’t enjoyed being at home so much so want to work longer!
What retirement means is different to what it did in the past. Retirement nowadays usually means stepping back/down from a professional career but still doing ‘something’ whether that is part time paid work or volunteering.
The best way to get a good retirement is to plan and put steps in place to achieve what it is you want to happen.
Tony originally trained as an engineer and this was the start of his career. Unfortunately the company he worked for didn’t do so well and he was made redundant. It was this that made him change directions and start working in the financial sector.
In order to help people as a financial adviser, Tony says that you need to truly understand what it is people want to achieve as their end goal. It’s not the same for everyone and sometimes includes some hard truths.
Tony’s Fire in the Belly is helping other become financially secure and helping them build a better life and future.

BEST MOMENTS 

“People are concerned about their jobs, about their futures”

“They need to find something else to stimulate their minds”

“The real skill of a financial adviser is to build that relationship with the client, get to understand them, know what they are trying to achieve and help them get there”

“We don’t know when tomorrow is going to come, but you need to be prepared”

“When I am helping others, I am helping myself as well”

ABOUT THE HOST

The ‘Mighty Pete Lonton’ from the ‘Mighty 247’ company is your main host of ‘Fire In The Belly’. 

Pete is an Entrepreneur, Mentor, Coach, Property Investor, and father of 3 beautiful girls. Pete’s background is in Project Management and Property, but his true passion is the ‘Fire in The Belly’ project itself. His mission is to help others find their potential and become the mightiest version of themselves. Pete openly talks about losing both of his parents, suffering periods of depression, business downturn and burn-out, and ultimately his years spent not stoking ‘Fire In the Belly’.
