What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

In Canberra, The Money Study has built a reputation through the work of Ashley, known to clients as Ash, whose financial advice and superannuation guidance feature prominently in feedback. Several buyers describe his ability to translate complex financial concepts into straightforward language, with visuals used to support retirement planning and pension discussions. Reviews time and again mention the honest, evidence-based nature of his recommendations, covering options such as early retirement and aged care transitions, while the PSS is singled out as an area where his expertise proved particularly valuable.

An observation shared by more than one reviewer is the sense of reassurance clients gain from having their own research confirmed alongside new facts and options they had not previously considered.

We saw Ash today. He was kind, professional and very experienced. He gave us honest and unbiased information about the PSS. He simplified complex information for us. He answered all of our questions. He has saved us a lot of money and provided options for an early retirement. We will definitely be back as that time becomes closer. Thank you Ash.

Ashley was fantastic, extremely thoughtful and overall extremely helpful to your mother regarding her finances as she transits to aged care. Thank you Ashley and Money Study will continue to be our family’s go-to for all of our financial planning needs.

My husband and I saw Ash at the Money Study and thank goodness we did! He explained my PSS entitlement - pension v lump sum in plain English enabling me to make a decision that I will benefit from for the rest of my life.

Ashley from the Money Study was an excellent advisor. I was impressed with his detailed knowledge about the PSS pension, related taxation, eligibility for the aged pension, and superannuation law among other financial matters. I would highly recommend his services.

This is our second (and not last) visit to The Money Study! Ash is extremely knowledgeable and affordably priced. He listened to our questions and concerns and provided guidance and practical financial advice. He demystifies the financial jargon, especially surrounding superannuation and pensions, into information that is easy to understand. If you’re looking for useful, friendly and most importantly money-saving advice - you can’t go past The Money Study!

Ashley was very supportive and described the best way forward for me in preparing for retirement. His suggestions were explained in a way that I could understand and with visuals to support the proposals I feel I can now plan the next steps. Many thanks.
