    I’m confused. You said you need $800k at 65 for a comfortable retirement. I did the calcs. To retire comfortably at 65 (if debt-free), you need about $400k at 65 (you get a part-pension too).

      Thats right, she is not taking into account the pension, at 67 a couple can have $450,000 in the bank and still get the full pension if their earnings are less than roughly $10,000 a year from bank interest.

      ​​@@geraldtrik6826She also didn't include the income the fund will still generate which will be substantial at $800000 , probably $450000 per year , so if you can live on $60000 you are only using $15000 from the balance each year. Super rough numbers here , there's fees and inflation but she should have mentioned it .The income could kill your pension but there are ways around it , remember they only look at assets 5 years back before you apply for the pension so once your assets are close to the threshold where it starts reducing pensions payments do some careful placement of money , assets etc 5 years before that if you can.

    • @myownperson8145
      @myownperson8145 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Some of these numbers are not helpful. If you have $800K in super you would not be eligible for a pension, in fact you would probably be worse off. Many people who are 60 now have not had the benefit of having super all of their working lives

    More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.

      The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

      This is precisely why I like having a portfolio coach guide my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform.

    I did the basics, I measured actual essential expenses over 3 years without inflation allowance prior to retirement. Comfort and living expenses, with no mortgage - two old cars -but an older home, with maintenance expenses , so I added $15k per year to enjoy retirement - in a low to mid financial suburb; total retirement expense cost me $123k per year. The so called experts are Bull S. for a comfortable life. If the base is a comfortable life, based on the average pre retirement income of a loving couple in there 60's
    then the post is bull twacky. You need more to retire than the experts are stating. By spending my super on an overseas holiday, I can become a drag on society via claiming a partial age pension. I don't think our children should pay for my retirement , nor do I a believe I should spend just t o claim a pension. Something is wrong?
