Insight Into Retirement Planning
Retirement means different things to different people. For some, traveling around in Australia in a caravan is a life-long dream but for others flying at the pointy end of the plane and staying in 5-star hotels around the world is more how they see life after work. Or maybe spending more time with the grandkids or volunteering in your local community rate high on your list of retirement goals. We all have different ideas of what the second half of our lives looks like and that’s why planning for your retirement is so important.
Why's Retirement Planning Important?
We are living longer and for most of us compulsory superannuation payments or the Age Pension alone won’t be enough to help us achieve the retirement lifestyle we’re dreaming about. Putting a long-term financial plan in place will provide you with the comfort of knowing that you can do all those things that you dreamed of and that your financial future is under control.
How We Can Help
Defining Your Retirement Goals
Preparation for Retirement
Under the Superannuation Guarantee law, employers are required to pay 9.5% of your salary into a super fund every quarter. This contribution, aimed at enhancing your retirement savings, is set to gradually increase, reaching 12% in the upcoming years, ensuring a more secure financial future for employees.
