Planning for retirement
When can I retire?
You can choose to retire whenever you want, but there are rules about when you can access your super and when you may be eligible for government benefits.
How much super will I need?
The price tag for retirement is different for everyone and depends largely on your preferences and the choices you make. There are many things to consider.
Where will the money come from?
Your income may come from a variety of sources including your super (as regular pension payments or a lump sum), government benefits, investments outside of super, and personal savings.
Where can I get help and advice?
Professional advice has been shown to boost confidence and help deliver better retirement outcomes. Whether it’s financial advice, or support and help as you age, good advice can make all the difference.
