    I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.

    I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes.

    A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k.

    Good to see the options. I wanted to know how $650k from the age of 60 a couple can retire? How much do they have yearly to spend until 93 years of age? Sorry, you didn’t get into that.

  • @ConsortiumPW

    @ConsortiumPW

    2 ай бұрын

    Thanks for your question. Its a difficult one to calculate, as the chances of both getting to age 93 and receiving the Age Pension as a couple is low. The difference of the full Age Pension as a couple is $44,000 compared to $29,000, which is massive. So what I do is project to age 85, assumig someone will pass away and see if there is there enough financial assets to supplement the $29,000 single Age Pension, for those years when not too much is spend. Also retiring at age 60 means you are self funded until Age Pension age at 67. Now after saying all that, to answer your question. An income of $58,000 indexed to CPI less 0.5% pa (We spend less as we age) should see enough funds for the remaining single penioner at age 85. Sorry that was a lot, but hope it helped. Regards Rob

    Hi Tony, fees can have a significant impact on your net returns and your balance over a long period of time. Important to understand what your paying, there are three types of fees. Product admin fees, ICR or investment manager fees and possibly a adviser fee if you use an adviser. If your in an old product, it may be costly when compared to more modern day options.
