Valeska Farrow

Risk Adviser | B Bus | Adv Dip FS | Authorised Representative No. 1257567

I started in financial services over 30 years ago, working at a large Australian Financial Services company for 25 years before joining Goldsborough in May 2014. 

I work closely with Craig Kirkwood, assisting him with all aspects of personal insurance, quoting, formal advice documents, applications, claims, and ongoing service.

I have two very sporty teenage children which involve a lot of my time driving them to their various training and commitments. Living close to the foothills of Adelaide you will often find me walking the trails around Brownhill Creek or Waite Conversation Reserve. Born and bred in the bush I thoroughly enjoy the outdoor life.

You may have seen the headlines about the collapse of the Shield and First Guardian Master Funds. It’s a confronting story, with almost 12,000 Australians affected and over $1.2 billion of retirement savings gone. Many only found out only when a letter arrived saying their super had vanished. It’s the kind of thing that makes all of us stop and check our own arrangements.
You’re retired and you’ve set yourself up well financially. You have no debt, no job to lose, no (or little) taxable income, no kids eating your fridge out and ready access to capital. You’re the envy of every financially stressed 40 year old with years of pressure head of them; possibly your own children. You wonder how you can help but you don’t want to just hand over cash without a purpose, and you also don’t want to create dependency or expectations.
