About the Author

Rob Noble-Warren won the first Financial Planner of the Year competition in the UK, is one of three people to be qualified in financial planning at the CFP™ level in both the USA and the UK, and he is also a Chartered Tax Advisor with the Institute of Taxation in the UK.

Writing for the consumer magazine 'Bloomberg Money', and with a tax column in 'Real Adviser', Rob has provided a consistently high standard of work, combining writing skills with in-depth experience. Other financial planners have called him a 'purist' (and he still doesn't know what that means) and say that he is '10 years ahead of his time'.
