Ben Blokker has happily worked for Poundwise Financial Coaching at different times since 2004. He endorses the vision of Poundwise as a one-stop-shop for all your finances because he believes that good advice alone is never enough. All your financial affairs are in fact interconnected, so that an adjustment to one of the components also leads to changes in other parts. Therefore, we believe that you can only give good advice when you have a full picture of the whole financial situation.
Of course, giving good advice also requires a certain level of knowledge and the necessary life experience. As a father of three children, and in possession of the certificate for FFP financial planner and every possible Dutch Financial Supervision Act (WFT) licenses, Ben exceeds this requirement. But even more important is his motto: “It’s not the amount of knowledge but the way of communicating that determines whether a financial adviser is good in his field.”
How often does it happen that you don’t know what your mortgage or retirement is going to look like? For Ben, clear understandable communication is the foundation in his field. By listening and asking questions he gets a clear picture of your needs and goals. For him, it’s not only a driver to meet these needs and objectives, but also to present the solutions in such a way that you can reproduce them.
Before buying a house or setting up a financial plan for old age, important decisions need to be taken. Based on his extensive experience as a mortgage advisor and certified financial planner, Ben is able to optimally advise and guide, allowing you to take this important decision with confidence.
