Looking forward to life after work


We’re healthier, living longer and envisage an active and attractive ‘life after work’ as opposed to a traditional retirement. It’s highly personal and dependent on many factors, some that can be controlled and some that can’t.  That’s where a well thought out game plan may help when it comes to making the ‘life after work’ you’re determined to enjoy a reality.

A well thought out game plan recognises your ability to accumulate wealth is likely to increase through your 40s and 50s. It will also aim to tax-effectively optimise your super and financial well-being without dramatically impacting your net income and current lifestyle.

The big picture

There’s more to it than simply selecting the right super and pension products. Your approach to work, the family home, household budgeting, dependants and any investment in shares, managed funds and property should be factored into your current game plan – in effect, a ‘whole-of-life’ plan.

Getting it right

Ensuring your game plan is right for you and your family is crucial and something of a balancing act.  You need to consider many factors, including tax-effective transition to retirement strategies, which is why you should talk to a licensed or appropriately authorised financial adviser who can show you exactly how getting your game plan right can shape your life after work.

What you need to consider

Because you don’t deal with super and allocated pensions every day, it’s good to deal with someone that does. Someone that can help you develop a game plan that delivers outcomes based on your personal circumstances and goals.
