Adviser since: 2012

If you’re approaching retirement, there’s a good chance you have asked yourself:

  • Am I actually going to be okay… or am I just hoping I am?
  • Could I be getting more from my super and investments?
  • Is there a better strategy out there that I simply have not had time to find?

You’ve likely done the right things. Built wealth. Contributed to super. Made smart decisions.

But knowing whether it’s enough, and whether it’s optimised, is a different problem.

That’s where Scott can help.

Scott works with people like you who want to turn uncertainty into a clear, personalised financial plan you can actually rely on.

Working together, you will:

  • See exactly what your retirement looks like in real numbers
  • Understand where your current strategy may be underperforming
  • Identify practical ways to improve your long-term outcomes
  • Make decisions with clarity instead of guesswork

You deal directly with Scott. No call centres. No being passed around. No generic advice.

Just clear explanations, structured thinking, and advice tailored to your situation.

Through the Wealthlab podcast, Scott also shares how he thinks about retirement, super, and investment strategy, so you can understand the reasoning before you even become a client.

Wealthlab operates fully online, so you can access the same level of advice whether you are in Adelaide or anywhere across Australia.

More about Scott Jackson

Scott founded Wealthlab because too many Australians were receiving advice built around products instead of people.

If you have ever felt unsure whether your current advice is truly in your best interest, you are not alone.

Wealthlab was built so you can:

  • Get direct access to your adviser
  • Receive advice that starts with your goals, not a product list
  • Understand the “why” behind every recommendation

Fourteen years on, that approach has not changed.

Whether you are planning your retirement income, structuring your super, or working through Centrelink and Age Pension decisions, the focus stays the same:

Help you understand your options clearly, see the numbers, and make confident decisions.

Investment Style

Your strategy starts with your life, not a product.

You will be guided through questions like:

  • What does your ideal retirement actually look like?
  • When do you want to stop working?
  • How much income do you need, and where will it come from?

From there, your strategy is built and tested.

Every recommendation is modelled so you can see how it performs, not just be told what to do.

Because Wealthlab is self-licensed, you are not restricted to a product list.

That means your strategy can be built around what is genuinely right for you, whether that is a simple super structure or a more complex approach.

Personal Life

Outside of work, you’ll likely find Scott in the gym working on his Brazilian Jiu Jitsu or at the dog park with his whippet.
