Analysis

Is your financial advisor helping you feel more confident, less stressed and giving you back valuable time?

Discover how professional advice brings more than returns, boosting confidence, reducing stress, and reclaiming 100+ hours annually for what matters most.

“Apparently I save a hundred hours a year. I’m on hour sixty.”

At Intrasia Wealth, we believe great financial advice goes far beyond portfolio performance.

A new Vanguard study, The Emotional and Time Value of Advice, reinforces what our clients often tell us: Advice brings peace of mind, emotional clarity, and meaningful time savings.

In a survey of over 12,000 investors:

  • Advised clients were 50% less likely to experience high financial stress
  • 86% reported more peace of mind
  • Clients saved up to 100+ hours a year managing finances
  • That time went to family, health, leisure — the things that matter most.

Most investors initially seek advice for investment performance. But they often discover the true value is confidence, clarity, and more time to live their lives fully.

At Intrasia Wealth, we work with you not just to grow wealth, but to simplify complexity, reduce stress, and help you focus on what matters most.

If you're ready to experience the full value of advice, let's talk.
