Ex Forces Services: Nockolds Wealth
Financial Clarity for Life in and after the Forces.
At Nockolds Wealth, we understand that no two individuals, or military careers, are the same. Your financial needs, goals, and priorities will change throughout your time in Service and beyond, which is why our advice is always tailored to your personal circumstances, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
For members of the UK Armed Forces, many day-to-day costs are reduced or covered. Subsidised accommodation, free healthcare, and structured pension schemes can give the impression that finances are already well managed. However, these benefits can sometimes mask longer term planning needs. Important goals such as buying a home, building independent savings, protecting your family, or preparing for life after Service may be unintentionally overlooked.
That’s where Nockolds Wealth can support you, helping you turn today’s stability into long term financial confidence.
Why financial planning is different in the Forces
Military life brings unique financial challenges and opportunities. Regular postings, deployments, and operational demands can make it difficult to focus on long term planning. Income structures, allowances, and pensions also differ significantly from civilian employment, meaning standard financial advice doesn’t always apply.
Without tailored guidance, Service personnel may delay decisions around property ownership, investments, or protection planning. Early, informed financial planning can help you make the most of your benefits while ensuring you’re prepared for future changes, whether that’s promotion, family life, or leaving the Armed Forces.
Life stages: in Service, transitioning, veteran
Your financial priorities will naturally evolve over time. While serving, planning may focus on saving efficiently, protecting your income, and understanding how your Armed Forces pension fits into your wider financial picture.
As you transition to civilian life, financial complexity often increases. Changes to income, housing, employment, and pensions can feel overwhelming without expert support. For veterans, the focus often shifts to retirement planning, long term investments, and ensuring financial security for family and future generations.
At every stage, Nockolds Wealth provides clear, practical advice aligned to where you are now, and where you want to be.
What to expect from your consultation
We offer a free, no obligation one hour consultation designed to understand you, your circumstances, and your goals. This is a straightforward conversation, no jargon and no pressure.
During your consultation, we’ll explore how we can help across areas such as:

- Pensions and retirement planning, including life after Service
Our advice is always personalised, transparent, and built around your priorities (not products). Whether you’re at the start of your career or planning your next chapter, Nockolds Wealth is here to support you with confidence and clarity.
