Crown Money Podcast

I have always enjoyed serving and helping people. I have done so all my life, in so many different ways. Whether it was waiting on them in a bar/restaurant, or picking out the right shoes, suit & tie for their upcoming event, their needs being completely met always gave me a huge sense of fulfilment.

Now taking care of people and their number 1 debt in life, their mortgage, feels that much more satisfying. When you get to see the weight of the world lift from a client’s shoulders, or even a tear of joy roll down their cheek knowing their life has changed forever, THAT gets me up in the morning!

I am a husband, a father and a golfer! haha Not always in that order… Almost everything I do is for my family, golf is most definitely for me though!

I have always believed that when I ‘make it’, everyone I love makes it too. My motto has and always will be, live to give.

I look forward to giving my all for you and yours.

Jo and Luke

Our journey started with Craig and Crown Money just over one year ago and has been financially the best decision we have made. We have been amazed at how quickly we have been paying off the principle of our home loan and wish we engaged Crown Money 8 years ago when we purchased our family home.

The initial transaction was fast and friendly and to be honest we were almost sceptical of the predicted timeframe of being debt-free however, every month has proven the numbers to be true.

The financial goals we discussed at the start have also been well exceeded to the point where we constantly discuss Crown’s home loan structure to genuinely help our friends and family out.

With our previous mortgage structure, it felt like it was never going to end and that we were working week to week just to pay the interest off. The financial freedom we are now feeling even with the small debt remaining is something that we thought we wouldn’t be experiencing for at least another 15+ years.

We are now able to set ourselves future goals beyond our mortgage and look forward to seeing how Craig and his team can assist in the coming years.

Melanie and Jeffrey

We’ve been with Crown Money for just over 12 months and it’s been a real game-changer for us. Previously we were on track to pay our mortgage off in another 20 years but now it’s looking like we could get it done in 3! It’s also enabled us to purchase an investment property much sooner than we were expecting, so our financial future is looking pretty good!

Matthew

I would like to thank Mat, Kaylene and the whole team at Crown Money for the awesome job you do! The best financial decision I’ve ever made was having the good fortune to hear about you when I was organising my mortgage. I’m on track to pay off my mortgage now in 10 years instead of 30 just by being on the program and I can’t sing the praises of Crown Money enough. You guys should be the ones winning this award not me!! Thanks for everything!

Natalie

When I joined Crown I paid off in my first year as much as I had in the previous 3 years!! I was amazed how the program made me so disciplined and allowed me to actually enjoy life and have my money grow as well as paying my debt down. The support I have always received feels so personal and I am so excited to be debt-free in the next few years!! Thank you Scott and all the team, can’t thank you enough for helping me be in this position.

Todd and Sarah

Sarah and Todd are headed for a debt-free life

“We were a bit skeptical before joining this program at first and thought it was a little too good to be true. Needless to say, we are so grateful for the persistence of Craig and could not be happier to be part of the Crown Money family. We have never saved so much and we love having the much-needed support and guidance from Craig and the team”.

Jemima and Brad

Not many 36 year olds can say that they’re debt free, but brad and jemima can!

“We have been with Crown for years. Brad has actually been with Crown for 17 years and when we met and joined finances, I could see why Brad had joined up. Scott has been an absolute god send to us. We could never fully express the gratitude we have for him and the team at Crown. Scott’s guidance and advice has helped us progress to an amazing financial position where we are getting close to paying off our house mortgage. Scott and his team are there ANYTIME we need, sometimes even just to reassure us we are on the right track. We wouldn’t be where we are today without Scott and Crown”.

Daniel and Carla

Daniel and Carla are on track to save themselves 10 years of loan repayments, with a whopping 28% savings rate

“We have been thrilled with what the program has brought to us, we were all over the place before joining the program but now we have got ourselves into a nice routine that allows our money to be managed and is working for us. This allows us to live life without some of the financial stresses that arise when bills pop out of nowhere. The crown program has taught us to think about what is really important for the family before we ask to redraw money. The advice we have received has worked really well for us and has guided us into a great position in our debt reduction journey”.

Michael

Aaron is on track to be debt-free in 8 years… wow!

“Before I was introduced to Craig Parry and the Crown Money Program, I thought I was doing all the right things, but I wasn’t seeing the results I had anticipated.

After speaking with Craig about what the Debt Reduction program could do for me it was an absolute no brainer that this was the loan structure for me. I finally have the financial structure I need to gain financial freedom. The process is so simple and has given me far more discipline and accountability for my expenses which on a single income is a necessity.

The first years results under the guidance of Craig have surpassed any other of my wildest expectations and can now justify a sports fanatics dream to the US for a holiday. I finally feel like I’m on the right track and with the continued support of Craig I look forward to being debt free or even building a property portfolio. Either way I feel like I’m in great hands to achieve my goals”.

Giovanni and Sarah

Giovanni and Sarah are on track to cut 12 years off their loan term! what an amazing effort.

“My wife and I met with Craig in 2018. We knew how to earn money and of course we also know how to spend money too and when it came to debt reduction and cashflow management we were novices.

After meeting with Craig, we took on his recommendations and had Crown Money organise our finances. Here we are a year or so later and extremely pleased with the decision we made and couldn’t thank them enough for helping us get to where we are today.

After making a massive dent in our home loan this past year, we are now planning our first family overseas holiday all thanks to Crown Money. We didn’t expect to be planning a trip for a very long time but through Craig’s genuine interest in achieving the best for his clients this is why we are able to take this holiday.

I would highly recommend Craig and Crown Money to anyone wanting to achieve better financial outcomes and results. Thank you Craig and the Crown Money team.”
