We have a small and dedicated team of caring and professional individuals. Like you we are driven in our personal and professional lives by a variety of passions.

Rick Foster – CFP®, Dip FP – Financial Planner

Rick is an Authorised Representative of WealthGen and has been providing quality Financial Planning advice since 1989. He specialises in investment strategies, and the provision of appropriate insurance to ensure the financial success of his clients. Rick holds the “Certified Financial Planner” designation and was previously on the National Advisory Board.

 

Rick’s greatest passion is his family. As a family they enjoy travelling overseas to experience other cultures allowing them to further appreciate what a great country we live in. Rick has a keen interest in health, nutrition and is an avid kayaker, cyclist and loves his guitar. He has a strong desire to improve mental health within the community and is a regular volunteer public speaker for Beyond Blue.

 

Rick’s favorite quote and one he lives by is “people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care”. “This is absolutely true when it comes to helping our clients with their future dreams. By showing them our geniune concern for their family’s security and success we create lifelong relationships”.

Jarrad Murphy – B Ec Grad Dip FP – Financial Planner

Jarrad joined WealthGen in 2001 after leaving a career in the retail industry. He completed a Bachelor of Economics at Flinders University and a Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning through Financial Services Institute of Australasia (Finsia). Jarrad has three young children and they, along with ongoing renovations to the family home, take up most of his spare time.

 

“Financial Planning doesn’t need to be a complicated process. The most effective plan is one that targets the things in life that are most important to you, and is easy to put into action. Often the hardest step is working out what your “important things” are. We can help you do that, and then work with you to build and implement a plan that will bring you closer to your goals”
