Making the Most of Your Windfall

Received an Inheritance, Gift or Redundancy Payout?

A financial windfall can be both exciting and overwhelming. Whether it comes from an inheritance, a redundancy package, or another unexpected source, it often raises the same question: “What should I do with this money?”

At Everalls Wealth Management, we specialise in helping people make smart, confident decisions about how to use a windfall in a way that supports your personal goals, your family, and your financial future.

Why You Need a Plan

Without guidance, it can be easy to spend a windfall quickly—or miss opportunities to grow and protect it. We provide holistic, personalised advice that helps you:

  • Clarify your goals – both short-term and long-term.
  • Understand your options.
  • Create a tailored strategy that balances today’s needs with tomorrow’s security.

Your Options Could Include:

Every client is unique, so our advice begins with you—your values, priorities, and lifestyle. Some of the areas we often explore include:

  • Lifestyle goals – enjoy part of your windfall through travel, a new car, home upgrades, or family experiences.
  • Debt reduction – pay down or clear loans to free up future cash flow and reduce risk.
  • Investing for the future – set up a tailored investment portfolio that aligns with your goals and risk profile.
  • Superannuation strategies – boost your retirement savings in a tax-effective way.
  • Sharing with family – provide financial assistance to children or loved ones in a structured way.
  • Protecting a legacy – preserve and grow an inheritance so it can benefit future generations.

Structuring Your Wealth Wisely

If you decide to invest some or all of your windfall, we’ll guide you through key structural decisions such as:

  • Whether a Family Trust or Investment Company would be appropriate.
  • Choosing the right mix of asset classes (shares, property, bonds, alternatives).
  • Selecting specific investments that suit your goals and preferences, including ethical options.
  • Ensuring everything is set up for tax efficiency and long-term growth.

And because life changes, we offer annual reviews to ensure your plan remains on track.

Why Work With Us?

  • We work with proactive individuals who want to maximise their windfall and value expert guidance.
  • We provide holistic, goals-based advice, not one-off product recommendations.
  • We don’t earn commissions on insurance or investments—we work for you, not the product providers.
  • You’ll have peace of mind knowing that your windfall is being managed thoughtfully and strategically.

Take the Next Step

A windfall is an opportunity to create lasting financial security—for you, and for generations to come. Don’t leave it to chance.
