Testimonials - Don McLeod
I have found Don one of the few who treat my money as if it were his; always explaining the ups and downs of any strategy and not just trying to sell a product.
Don is passionate about educating his customers to assist them to make informed decisions in a ever changing financial landscape.
I would recommend Don to anyone seeking financial advise that you would expect from a trusted partner.

Your professional but friendly manner has educated us in financial planning so we are better able to understand and plan for our needs in the future and for retirement.
We are better able to understand the intricacies of the financial market and therefore better able to cope with the volatility of the current markets and the financial crisis.
Your insistence that we complete a strategic plan, including assets and liabilities, and lifestyle goals and objectives helped us understand what we had and what we wanted to achieve before we are able to retire.
Your friendly support has been instrumental in making us feel like you are a good friend who we can ask for advice when we are considering financial changes.
You are always easily contacted and on the rare occasion that you are not available, you are always swift in getting in touch with us when you are able.
You always make us feel that you have all day to talk to us about our concerns and make things so much easier to understand.
Your impartial opinions, openness about any involvement you may have with suggested funds or strategies and consideration of our needs, reassures us that you are thinking of our best interests.
We look forward to continuing our financial relationship with you for many years.

Don came into my life at one of the worst times of my life, the death of my husband. I had been seeking advice and help from a great number of sources, but instead of help all I received was confusion and a great deal of pressure. This was from both private and government sources. After a great deal of stress Don was recommended to me by a family member. He made the time to come and talk to me at home, something that no one else had ever offered to do.
He sat down with me and actually listened to what I was saying. Later he asked what it was that he could do for me. What was it that I wanted to do and what was it that I needed my investment to do for me? There were no pressure sales gimmicks; in fact there was no pressure at all. He listened to what I had to say, and then he made some suggestions showing different ways around the obstacles that had been put up by red tape and government departments. He showed me what he would do in my situation and what would suit my needs and circumstances. He then asked if l had any questions or needed anything explaining in language that I could understand. He left me with much to think about, his card and number and told me to call if I needed anything or just to let him know what I had decided to do. He told me to take my time, to make sure I understood all the information and that then and only then would we take the next step.
The most important thing that I have found about Don is the fact that he is honest.
This is a rare trait these days. He genuinely cares about the people that he helps. It
doesn't matter how small or large the investment may be, he treats everyone the same, with dignity, compassion, understanding, no pressure and most importantly with honesty.
For my family there is no other choice to make. Don will hopefully be there not only for me in the times to come but also for my children when they need help. If you value honesty and integrity, then I can guarantee that Don McLeod is the man for you too.

Whilst my business with McLeod Watzdorf is small in nature and reflects the normal family mans needs I have always been treated with respect and have felt that they have my interests at heart. Any queries that I have had have been handled promptly. Such is my confidence in their business and attitude I have continued using Don following a move interstate and when the company that I work for moved into the financial planning area I have maintained my relationship with McLeod Watzdorf.

It's been about 8 years since I started working in Japan (wow....how time flies!) and I have always been able to rely on you to keep me well informed and in touch with what's happening back home to my investments. I know this hasn't been an easy feat with my schedule!!!! Thanks for your patience.
In light of last year's economic situation, I am very grateful for your valuable advice and committed efforts throughout a difficult period. I believe we weathered the storm rather well...good teamwork!

Helen and I have been closely associated with Don McLeod and Associates Pty. Ltd. for nearly twenty years. In that time, our relationship has moved from the uncertainty of a new direction, at first, to trust and confidence, as time progressed, to the full confidence and friendship we have today.
Don, we have moved through some interesting and trying times, recently.
Helen and I have always trusted your expertise and judgment, when it came to the control of our Superannuation and various Insurance needs. Your knowledge of the industry and at times your insistence, have guided us through the minefield of “our financial situation”. Sometimes it was difficult to see the benefits over the expense, but it always came down to our trust in your judgment and you have never failed us.
I’m now approaching that dreaded, or is it, divine time, as retirement looms. Now is when all the hard work and hard decisions, are laid on the line. Both Helen and myself, are extremely glad that we were fortunate enough to have been introduced, through a friend, to you personally and in a business sense.
For the last 20 years we have shared more than just finance, Helen and I have watched yourself and Dee raise your family, progress your business through some trying times and always be available when we had questions and worries.
Lastly, Don, thank you and your Staff, for all your hard work, on our behalf. I wanted to let you know that our relationship, over the years, has been appreciated by Helen and myself. We wish you and yours, good health and happiness for the future.
Helen and Mike Gillen – Seaford Meadows
