We are very impressed by the help John has given us.
John and Thornton have been impeccable in their advices.
I’d like to thank John for the very useful advice he provided. He answered all my questions in a friendly and professional manner. I’d have no hesitation in recommending him and Thornton.
I contacted Thorton to discuss a pension option that I had taken and the call was prompted after reading an article on the subject by John Condon.
Within a few hours, John returned my call and I was able to explain the details and was delighted and pleased to get his professional opinion which supported my decision while removing any doubts or concerns that I had.
Thorntons Financial Planning Team’ came to my rescue in 2021 with advice re managing my late brother-in-laws estate for me as power of attorney.
I cannot thank them enough for the solid trustworthy advice they gave me.
I felt safe and protected as they guided me through some major decisions which saved the estate a lot of money.
The whole team were friendly, welcoming and always kept me up to date and informed as well as being easily accessible.
I would have ‘no doubt’ in recommending Thorntons Financial Planning Services to any one who needs sound financial advice.
I am so lucky to have a garden and a summer house which you made me buy!
Your newsletter was timely this morning. Given our previous years’ expenses, how long can we afford to live? I’m asking it this way because a friend of mine, who Sharon will know, was going on about financial planning is little good if you don’t know when you’re going to die. I turned it around and said: “but they can tell you how long you can afford to live”. If they said I could afford to live until I was 70, or maybe 110, it would change our spending.
Sharon and her colleagues are a great team who create a friendly atmosphere and are able to advise on financial matters in an easily understandable and effective way. They are also always ready to take that extra trouble and time to really help with any difficulties.
I don’t know any other business leader who has used her time during the pandemic to communicate and inform her clients to such a good effect.. I have been amused, inspired, educated and read interviews with people who really make a difference in our World. Sharon, your calm assurance has eased my fears and kept me in contact while I have been locked down. Any personal problems have not stopped the constant warm care for your clients. Thank you.
Moved to Thorntons after a bad experience with one of the big banks. What a breath of fresh air. They took time to understand what we wanted from life and tailored investments to match. But more than that, they keep an eye on our investments, regularly review to check they are still good, suggest improvements, and they are always happy to be called to explain the financial jargon. Their good advice has also helped me greatly increase my state pension entitlement. Good people, highly recommended!
It is good to know that I don’t have to worry about my finances. You really do what it says on the tin and I thank you and all the others.
Hi Sharon…..just wanted to say John has been an absolute star with us over the past few weeks. He is so efficient and so helpful. He is such a fine example of his profession and a wonderful ambassador for Thornton. It is important to praise where praise is due. We are all too quick to complain!!
I am very impressed with the lifestyle first approach. It was something I wasn’t expecting. It’s clear that it’s not selling financial products for the sake of it but it’s a focus on needs first. Both my wife and I were intrigued by the cash flow modelling and found looking at the effect of cash expenditure over time really informative.
We found the lifetime projections very useful in terms of knowing what we have and haven’t got and how to organise ourselves well into the future.
Time was taken to meet with both my wife and I, we were able to picture what our lives ahead could look like. It was a bit like a time machine. We were able to make decisions about our future with clarity and future.
Both my wife and I are very happy to let Sharon handle our affairs, including our succession planning. Not only have we had help with the older generation but the younger generation too.
