Retirement Planning

Retirement Planning

What will you do in your retirement?

We’re all living longer and our cost of living is ever increasing, making planning for retirement more important than ever.

With the constant changes to the tax and superannuation rules, you can’t leave your retirement planning until the last minute.  The sooner you begin to plan, the better the potential outcome for you.

There are a number of factors to consider when it comes to planning for retirement:

  • What income will you need to live on when you’re retired?
  • Will you spend more in the early years of retirement and less when you’re older?
  • Do you need lump sums to pay for travel etc?
  • Will you stay in the family home, or move elsewhere?
  • Do you want to leave an inheritance?
  • What investment returns do you expect to receive over the rest of your life?
  • What are you prepared to give up now, in order to have a nice standard of living in the future?

Of course, one of the most important questions you need to ask is whether you’re saving anywhere near enough to afford to do the things you want to do in the future.

Part of our service is helping you budget for your future – saving enough now so you can enjoy the lifestyle you desire in the future. We can use computer modelling to help you better understand the range of options available to you including how much you need to save, when you choose to retire and the investment returns you need to target.

In this section we’ll provide articles that will help you learn more about your retirement planning options. Remember, you can call us on 08 8364 0066 to arrange a complimentary appointment where we can meet with you and discuss your retirement planning objectives.
