Your Retirement
Life Check
Retirement Life Check
It is hard to know how much you will be able to safely spend in retirement and how much you need to put aside when you donโt know for sure how long your money needs to last. You might live longer or shorter than average, investment markets will go up and down and unexpected events can send our well laid plans off track.
Maximising your entitlements comes with so many complex rules that many retirees find that they are currently underpaid in retirement. Understanding your money options could provide you with many things you can do differently to feel in control of your finances and possibly maximise your entitlements during your journey to retirement. After the Age Pension, superannuation is the most important source of income in retirement for most Australians.ย There are many things you can do with your super that can improve your income in retirement.ย It can help to have access to someone that knows the rules, tips and tricks.ย ย
