Money Mentors

Money Mentors Setting your mind at ease

The Coronavirus pandemic has had an impact on most people’s finances in some way. For some, they’ve experienced a devastating loss of income, while others may have retained their regular salary and actually saved money during isolation.

There’s no doubt it gave us a chance to re-evaluate our lives, and in moving forward, take control of how we spend our time and money to reach our lifestyle and financial goals.

Perhaps you realised that you haven’t missed dining out and prefer socialising at home, or you’ve reignited your love for cooking and want to make it a priority to prepare healthy, home-made lunches. The enforced break may have helped break shopping habits…or you may have fallen in love with online shopping and spent more than you realized!

All these lifestyle changes make it the ideal time to take a proactive look at your budget and set some financial goals. The financial uncertainty of the pandemic also highlighted the importance of having a savings account for a rainy day. Queensland Country Bank offers a free Money Mentoring service to Members to simplify and structure your finances and deliver tailored solutions to achieve short and long term financial goals. Each budgeting specialist can help you: • Develop a personalised budget tailored to your own needs • Identify your key financial goals and develop a plan of how you could achieve them • Identify areas you could save money or reduce spending • Check your progress through follow up appointments

With your own personal Money Mentor by your side, you can expect to receive genuine advice on budgeting and practical solutions regarding Queensland Country Bank’s products to help you achieve your financial goals and adapt as your circumstances change.

The Money Mentors are currently available in person at Queensland Country Bank’s Cairns, Mackay, Mount Isa and Townsville branches but phone appointments can be arranged right across the state. To arrange an appointment please contact your nearest branch.
