Due to ill health and pressures of business life, Dave felt conflicted between the familiarity of the business and the uncertainty of life after work, not knowing whether he could afford to step away.
Dave sought peace of mind and the reassurance that his evolving income and capital needs could be met, allowing him to gain precious time now and enjoy the nicer things in life going forward.
How PM+M helped
