Testimonials
Trust, professionalism and understanding are just some of the things that our clients like about our service. Below you can read, in their own words, what they think about us.
In the years that Damian has been advising us on our financial affairs (since 2006) he has always been thoughtful and insightful with regards to our needs, rather than his own. His investment suggestions have been sensible and well timed, and even in challenging market conditions Damian has continued to strive to maximise our portfolio’s returns and serve our best interests. I now think of Damian as much as a friend and our financial adviser who I can turn to for any number of matters and be confident of his understanding and advice. I fully expect Damian to figure in our personal and business financial needs for many years to come.
Patrick & Karen
Our experience with Mint Financial Planning has been first class. Damian provides a very personalised and professional service. His advice is timely, very considered and strategic based on personal objectives. I have recommended Damian to family, friends and colleagues, and they have also benefited from his expertise, with very positive feedback.
Antoinette and John
My wife and I are very delighted with Mint Financial and find it refreshing to work with Damian who we find truly interested in our needs /circumstances and preferences. What really impressed us was the way Damian takes the time to answer any questions and particularly his depth of knowledge.
Last year we sought his services and advice on planning for our financial security in retirement. Since then we have had several meetings with Damian, and our planning was achieved in a very professional manner, while at the same time putting us totally at ease. Damian and the team make us feel like we are the most important clients every time we have contact.
Damian is always happy and engaging, but at the same time, we are never in doubt of his professional acumen. Damian always explains everything thoroughly and we never feel uncomfortable asking questions.
We gladly recommend his services and already have!
Sam & Angela
There are two things I look for in a financial adviser. Firstly, a thorough, up to date knowledge of all aspects of government rules and regulations pertaining to superannuation and investments. Secondly a proactive approach to sharemarket investments providing me with advice on maximising my investment returns.
Damian has scored very well against these criteria in setting up and managing a retirement plan for myself and my wife. I find Damian very approachable at all times with him always providing excellent explanations of why he is recommending certain investments, tax strategies and superannuation strategies. This was most helpful while I was preparing myself for retirement. I can strongly recommend his services to anyone.
Robert and Diana
I have worked with Damian and the team at Mint now since 2014. I have found them to be exactly what I need. Responsive, patient and consistent are words that come to mind. Responsive because whenever I ask a question by email or phone I get a very quick response. Patient because I ask the dumb questions and they never seem to mind. Consistent because Mint is a stable team and Damian is very reliable. Add to this the quality of advice and monitoring of my portfolio suits me very well and I am more than happy to recommend Mint to others.
Mike
I have been a client of Mint since 2007. Damian and his team have guided me and educated me along the way. With the guidance of Mint I now have my finances sorted, and feel in a good position to enjoy the future. Damian is patient and always takes time to answer the dumb questions. One of the things I like best is that they are not pushy and are keen to involve their clients in decisions ensure you understand things. I would highly recommend their services to anyone.
Deb
My wife and I had reached a stage where we required investment advice; it is difficult to sort through the correct path without professional assistance. We were referred to Mint Financial through relatives, the investment advice they had received was sound business judgement and this only impressed us to visit Mint and Damian Galle in particular to make the correct decisions for ourselves and our children.
The advice Damian provided along with his understanding of our situation enabled a path to financial improvement. Very professional and engaging we found Mint to be unique in how they approach and direct our financial affairs.
We cannot stress how important choosing the correct path for your financial future is, joining Mint Financial I believe was the best decision we could have made. We can call on Mint for any sort of professional advice, they are only too happy to assist. I recommend Mint to others, it’s taking the first step and then realising it should have been done earlier, then again it’s never too late!
Sam and Louise
I have been using the services of Mint Financial since 2008. Prior to that I had a brief time with a financial planner who simply repeated back to me what I was telling him. I find that Damian listens to my point of view and then explains to my satisfaction when his experience and knowledge steer me to a different decision.
Basically, with Damian looking after my financial planning, I am able to sleep at night, in good times and bad.

Mint is an organisation that provides the “TLC” (Tender loving Care) treatment from day one. They constantly work outside the square to provide 300% service & try to achieve maximum return to your portfolio regardless where the market sits.
Anthony and Margaret
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Damian and the whole Mint team including Jason as my accountant since 2010. I’m overwhelmed with their management of my financial affairs and the outstanding customer service everyone provides.
Having previously been with another organisation, I can confidently recommend the Mint team to anyone looking for solid & trusted advisers. Where others seem to provide recommendations that suit their business, Mint offer a strategy and suite of products aligned to my needs. Over the last 5 years, including the GFC, they have exceeded my expectations with the returns on my portfolio. Overall Damian & the team are very responsive and commitment to ensuring my short term and long term goals are achieved.

Josie and Vic
When I retired at the age of 65, I needed to get sound advice on how to manage my income flow for the rest of my life. On discussing the issue with my son, who was at the time working in the industry, I took his advice and contacted Damian at Mint Financial Planning. From my very first meeting with Damian, I felt relieved and comfortable that I had found someone who could take the worry out of trying to sort out the best way of investing my super to ensure my income into the future.
I can say that I have left everything up to Mint, who have most adequately managed my portfolio helping me to make informed decisions on investments which include, shares, property and fixed deposits. Mint have also kept me informed on market trends and investment opportunities on a regular basis, with recommendations as to the best way forward.
In a nutshell, I have been with Mint since 2011 and can highly recommend Damian and his team to handle your financial planning through their honesty, dedication and genuine interest in meeting your needs. You too can sleep well knowing that your money is in good hands.
Denis
We have been clients of Mint Financial Planning since June 2013. Since that time, Damian and the team at Mint have been our financial “Guardian Angels” and have been looking after us very well. By way of example, at the time we became Mint’s clients, we were in the process of obtaining finance for an investment property. Damian and the Mint team advocated on our behalf in regard to complicated mortgage and investment matters. Through Damian’s guidance, we avoided financial pitfalls that would have cost us tens of thousands of dollars had we relied on the advice of other financial institutions and mortgage brokers. Damian and the Mint team continue to look after our financial affairs diligently. The advice and support of Damian and the Mint team remove the stress of dealing with financial matters. Damian and the team excel at communicating complex financial matters in simple and easy to understand terms. The Mint team is friendly and approachable, and always responds quickly and comprehensively to any query that we have had. Theirs is the highly professional, tailored, personalised service that goes above and beyond, and is all too rare in this day and age.
Kat and Shyam
I have been with Mint Financial Planning since 2005 and this has been the best financial decision I have made in my life. The staff have always been professional, caring, helpful and prompt. Damian Galle, is highly respected and experienced in his field, yet I have found that he is always ready to support me with the good advice and assistance, at any time. I feel comfortable to talk to him about my finances and any other issues. I would like to also recommend Jason Sgro for his taxation expertise and help. It feels like Mint is a part of my family, where I feel happy and financially safe. Thank you for your care, Mint!
Ella
As I have a Commerce degree and in addition to qualifying as an accountant, have also studied financial management with the Securities Institute, I am well equipped to judge the quality of any financial advice I receive. My confidence and trust in Damian’s professional competence has never been betrayed. At all times he has provided sound and sensible advice, clearly based on thorough training on all aspects of financial management. He has always impressed me as a decent and honest person and I highly recommend his services.
John and Jan
My Wife and I have been with Mint Financial since 2008. To sum them up I would choose the words Professional and Caring. They have taken great care to find our needs and to tailor a package to best meet them.
We started with a managed fund portfolio and have moved to a Self Managed Fund administered by Mint Financial as our assets have grown. We are advised on every decision and even given alternatives, should we choose. I have no hesitation in recommending Mint Financial to anyone.
Ken & Helen
Damian Galle has proved to be a very proactive financial adviser, readily able to proffer a range of share and investment opportunities in keeping with a client’s risk profile to optimise return. I have been very pleased to have the benefit of his advice.

Damian Galle and Mint Financial have given our family solid financial advice over many years – through many of life’s cycle of investments, employment, retrenchments, children entering the workforce and retirements. We always seek Damian’s counsel when considering opportunities for our SMSF and would highly recommend him as a respected finance professional.
