Dont Shoot The Messenger
Hi, I'm Chris Ball, and welcome to my podcast, "Don't Shoot the Messenger."
My no-nonsense approach to building wealth and scaling businesses comes from real experience, not theory. I’ve built an international financial planning company with $3.3bn assets under management. I have coached top performers and seen what works (and what doesn’t) up close.
This podcast is for the ones who are done with fluff:
- The high earners who still feel broke
- The entrepreneurs are burning out trying to chase growth
- The ambitious professionals who are starting to question the game they’re playing
- And anyone who’s beginning to realise that more isn’t always better
I’m not here to coddle. I’m here to be honest.
You might not like everything I have to say, but I’m not here to be liked.
I’m here to help you get clear, get focused, and get real results.
All I ask is: Don’t Shoot the Messenger.
This is a Financial Planner Life Production 🎬
Dont Shoot The Messenger
We’re Facing a Crisis in Financial Planning: Here’s Why
There were only 174 financial advisers under the age of 25 in the entire UK in 2024.
Yes, you read that right.
In this episode, Chris Ball sits down with Sam Oaks to unpack a growing problem that’s been swept under the rug for too long: the advice gap.
Why are young people avoiding a career in financial planning?
What’s stopping them from entering one of the most meaningful, high-earning professions?
We discuss:
- The shocking talent shortage in financial advice
- Why the industry has an image problem
- Barriers to entry for new advisers
- What needs to change - from education to leadership
If you care about the future of wealth, this one’s worth your time.
